We compared 13 family office databases on published price, contacts, and model, re-checked on each provider's own pages on 1 November 2026. One-time Excel files run from $199 for a single US state to about $5,000 for a worldwide file. Subscriptions run from $79 a month (after a first-month fee) to $25,000 a year or more, and Preqin, PitchBook, With Intelligence and FINTRX quote prices through sales. The best family office database depends on the job: enterprise platforms serve institutional research, specialists serve teams that fundraise all year, and a one-time Excel file serves a defined outreach campaign.
Full disclosure: we sell a family office database, so read this comparison knowing that. We have kept it factual and useful anyway, including the cases where a competitor is the better choice for you.
Details below reflect what each provider publishes about its own product, read on each provider's own pages on 1 November 2026. Prices and features change, so always confirm on the provider's site before buying. If you represent one of these companies and something here is out of date, contact us and we will correct it promptly.
How to judge a family office database: four questions
Buyers ask the same things at every price level: how fresh the contacts are, whether every listing is a family office, and whether the data is specific enough for outreach that earns replies. Before you compare features, judge every provider on these four questions:
- How is the data verified, and when was each record last checked?
- Does it include direct contact details for decision makers, or office-level addresses such as info@?
- Is it a one-time purchase you own, or a subscription?
- What happens if the data is wrong? Is there a guarantee?
Our family office database buyer's guide turns these questions into a checklist and a one-hour test.
Family office database types: one-time vs subscription, in three tiers
Tier 1: Enterprise platforms
Preqin, a part of BlackRock, is a standard for institutional LP data across eight asset classes. Family offices are one segment inside a much larger universe of institutional investors, and its core value is performance benchmarks, mandate data, and research.
We could not find published pricing on preqin.com as of November 2026. Access to Preqin Pro is arranged through its team (the product page invites visitors to book a demo). Our Preqin cost guide collects the third-party estimates, clearly labelled, and our Preqin alternative guide compares the two models in detail.
Choose Preqin if you need benchmarks and mandate data for institutional work.
PitchBook, a subsidiary of Morningstar since 2016 per its own citation guidelines, describes itself as a private equity and venture capital database, with investor coverage as part of a broader product and some of the deepest deal and company research in private markets. We could not find published pricing on pitchbook.com as of November 2026; its homepage invites visitors to request a demo, and access is quoted by its sales team.
Choose PitchBook if deal histories, valuations, and co-investor mapping are the research you need. Our PitchBook alternative guide for family office contacts compares the two models.
With Intelligence, presented on its site as part of S&P Global, announced the acquisition of Highworth Research, a single family office research database, in May 2024, and offers detailed written profiles of single and multi family offices. Its homepage states that With Intelligence is now available in S&P Capital IQ Pro.
We could not find published pricing as of November 2026; its site invites visitors to request a demo.
Choose With Intelligence if you want in-depth written family office profiles alongside fund and manager data.
Who these are for: funds and institutions that need benchmarks, mandates, and research workflows, with the budget for enterprise software. If you mainly need accurate contacts for outreach, much of what these platforms offer may go unused.
Tier 2: Family office specialists
FINTRX describes, on its family office data page as of November 2026, 4,600+ verified single and multi-family offices and 30,000+ verified contacts, with daily updates, AI-powered search, and relationship mapping; its site also describes CRM integrations, API and data feeds, and an MCP integration for AI assistants.
Pricing is not published: fintrx.com/pricing returned a page-not-found when we checked on 1 November 2026, and the site invites visitors to request a trial. Access is arranged through its sales team. Our FINTRX pricing guide collects the third-party estimates, clearly labelled, and our FINTRX alternative guide covers when each model fits.
Choose FINTRX if your team prospects family offices and the wider wealth channel all year and wants CRM sync.
Dakota publishes its pricing plainly on its Marketplace page: $16,500 per year for full platform access and $1,000 per additional user, as of November 2026. The same page lists 5,000+ family offices among 250,000+ LP accounts, and its family office page describes 8,000+ decision-maker contacts, coverage of 91 countries, and daily research updates, with CIO bios and investment preferences.
Dakota also runs a community and education layer (the free monthly Dakota Live! call) that has become a fixture in the industry. Our Dakota Marketplace pricing guide explains what the subscription buys, and our Dakota alternatives guide has the full comparison.
Choose Dakota if you raise continuously from institutions and family offices and your team works in a CRM.
Altss publishes fixed annual prices on its pricing page, a welcome practice in a market where most platforms quote through sales. As of November 2026 its Intelligence plans are:
- Europe Family Offices: $5,000 per year
- North America Family Offices: $8,000 per year
- Global Family Offices: $15,000 per year
- Global Investors: $18,000 per year
- Full Market: $25,000 per year
Global plans include one named user, with additional named users at $5,000 per year each; regional plans include exactly one named user, with additional users unavailable on those plans. The same page describes Intelligence access as in-platform research with no public API, bulk export, or free trial, and states that subscriptions are annual. Direct purchases are a prepaid 12-month term with no automatic renewal (purchases through AWS Marketplace follow the AWS contract), and the Fundraising OS, which adds pipeline and outreach workflows, is listed at $25,000 to $45,000 per year.
That model is coherent: the subscription is the product, and in-platform research is what keeps the intelligence current.
Choose Altss if your team works inside a research platform all year. Our Altss alternatives guide compares it with a one-time file and other options.
Who these are for: teams doing continuous, high-volume fundraising who need fresh data all year and CRM workflows. If that is you, this tier is worth the money.
Tier 3: One-time lists and data memberships
This is our tier, so here is the landscape as each provider presents it. Our guide to family office lists in Excel compares this tier in more depth.
Family Office Club (familyoffices.com) is a family office community built around live events, with a database offering alongside. Per its database page as of November 2026, individual databases are listed at $495 or $997 for the first month and then $79 per month, with Excel download available as a PRO upgrade for an additional $995; bundled packages that include virtual event attendance are also listed, for example $799 for the first month or $1,350 for the first year, then $79 per month.
Its database page states that all databases are confirmed through a phone call, email, or web verification within the last 6 months, and its terms describe a refund of 4 times the purchase price per listing for any contact that is not a family office wealth management firm. Check the current product descriptions and terms on their site for what each package includes.
Choose Family Office Club if live events and a community are as important to you as the data. Our Family Office Club alternative guide compares the two models, and our Family Office Club review covers what its database membership includes, from its own pages.
familyofficehub.io sells one-time Excel lists ranked by size, with notably strong European coverage. Examples listed as of November 2026: the 500 largest US single family offices at $799.99, the 1,000 largest single family offices in Europe at $1,499.99, country lists from $199.99, and its list of the 3,000 largest family offices in the world at $4,999.99.
Its products page states that for at least 12 months after purchase, free updates and extensions of the lists are included. Its lists include generic contact details (emails, phone numbers, postal addresses, and executive names), which the site describes as GDPR-compliant, a compliance-first choice.
Choose familyofficehub.io if your campaign is in Europe and size-ranked lists by country suit you. Our familyofficehub.io comparison for US lists covers the US case.
Family Office Access sells annual subscriptions. As of November 2026 its homepage lists Global at $3,995 per year, North America at $2,495 per year, and International at $2,495 per year, each paid upfront, with daily updates through the platform for 12 months.
The homepage shows a Monthly tab next to Annual; only annual prices were listed when we checked, so see the site for current terms. It describes a money-back data accuracy guarantee and strategic advisor support. In February 2026 ISS Market Intelligence announced that it had acquired Family Office Access.
Choose Family Office Access if you want a platform with advisory support that keeps updating while you subscribe. Our Family Office Access alternative guide compares the two models.
AllFamilyOffices sells downloadable Excel and CSV databases: its databases page listed 206 products as of November 2026, filterable by region, country, sector, and office type, with quarterly refreshes included for 12 months after every purchase. Examples include the United States Family Offices Database at $1,999 and Family Offices Worldwide at $3,999. The page describes the contents as verified family office contacts, decision-maker emails, firm profiles, and investment focus, drawn from public sources.
Choose AllFamilyOffices if you want a specific slice from a large catalogue and value 12 months of included refreshes. Our AllFamilyOffices comparison covers the differences.
FamilyOfficeDB publishes one plain price list for one-time downloads, as of November 2026: $199 per US state pack, $995 per regional download, and $2,995 for the full database with 12 months of quarterly refreshes, plus an annual licence at $3,990 per year with monthly refreshed downloads and up to 5 seats. Its homepage describes cross-checks against SEC Form ADV and offers a free 100-firm sample.
Choose FamilyOfficeDB if you want the lowest published entry price for a single US state. Our FamilyOfficeDB alternative guide compares the two files.
SeekFamilyOffice sells hand-checked spreadsheets by region, as one-time purchases: Asia-Pacific, North America, and Europe at US$499 each, Middle East at US$199, and Global at US$999, as of November 2026. By stated policy its records hold publicly recorded contact routes and leave out private email addresses and personal mobile numbers, and its pricing page cites a coverage snapshot dated 5 September 2026.
Choose SeekFamilyOffice if you want an inexpensive, hand-checked starting list and plan to research decision-makers yourself. Our SeekFamilyOffice comparison covers the differences.
Active Family Offices (us): every listing is reviewed and verified by a team of humans and has a verified website or LinkedIn company page. A purchase is a one-time download of the current version, with the Excel file included, and the full databases carry a 95% accuracy guarantee, with money back under the terms published on each product page.
Each office comes with up to three top decision-makers. For the USA, they include a personal LinkedIn profile and a verified personal work email; for Europe, Israel, Canada, Japan, and Brazil, the file lists names and positions with company email and phone, for regulatory reasons.

How to choose the best family office database
Match the tier to your job:
- You raise capital continuously and live in your CRM: a Tier 2 subscription is the right tool.
- You need benchmarks and mandates for institutional work: that is Tier 1 territory.
- Your job is narrower (a real estate raise, an LP search for a fund, or a startup round): one of the tools for specific jobs above may fit best.
- You need accurate family office contacts for a defined outreach effort (as a founder, fund manager, or advisor): a one-time list is the economical buy. You own the file, you pay once, and you can start the same day.
Whatever you pick, test before you trust. Ask for a sample, check a few rows yourself on LinkedIn, and see whether the provider tells you how and when the data was verified.
Then plan your outreach around warm introductions. Our short guide on how to get warm introductions to family offices applies whichever database you buy.
FAQ
What is the best family office database?
It depends on the job: Preqin, PitchBook and With Intelligence suit institutional research with benchmarks and mandates. FINTRX, Dakota and Altss suit teams that fundraise all year inside a platform or CRM. For a defined outreach campaign, a one-time Excel file you own, checked against a free sample first, is the economical buy.
How much does a database cost?
For family office databases, published prices range widely as of November 2026. FamilyOfficeDB lists $199 for a single US state, AllFamilyOffices lists $1,999 for its USA database, our Full USA Database is $2,500, Dakota lists $16,500 a year plus $1,000 per additional user, and Altss plans run from $5,000 to $25,000 a year. Preqin, PitchBook, With Intelligence and FINTRX quote prices through their teams.
Can you buy a family office database once, without a subscription?
Yes. AllFamilyOffices, FamilyOfficeDB, SeekFamilyOffice, familyofficehub.io and Active Family Offices all sell one-time downloads, and some include 12 months of refreshes, per their pages. Ours is a one-time download of the current version, with the Excel file included and a 95% accuracy guarantee under the terms on each product page.
Do family office databases include personal emails?
It varies by provider and region. Some describe decision-maker emails, while SeekFamilyOffice and familyofficehub.io hold office-level or generic company contact details by stated policy. Our USA listings include verified personal work emails and LinkedIn profiles for top decision-makers; for Europe and some other regions we list names and positions with company contact details, for regulatory reasons.
Where can I find a list of family offices?
You can buy a one-time list or subscribe to a platform. One-time Excel files in this comparison start at $199 for a single US state, and our Full USA Database is $2,500. Platforms such as Dakota, Altss and FINTRX include family offices inside annual subscriptions. Whichever you choose, check a free sample first.
Can you provide a free list of family offices?
Yes. Our free sample is an Excel file of 40 family offices, 20 in the USA with full contacts and 20 in Europe and Asia, with the same columns as the full databases. FamilyOfficeDB also offers a free 100-firm sample, per its homepage.
How to find family office investors?
Start with a verified list filtered by location and investment domain, so every office you contact invests in what you offer. Read each office's website for its thesis and any deal submission channel, look for a warm introduction through your network, and send a short, specific email to the right decision-maker.
The bottom line for a capital raiser choosing now
For a defined family office outreach effort, we believe the strongest buy in this market is a file reviewed and verified by a team of humans that you own outright: the Full USA Database or the Full Worldwide Database, or the Full Europe Database for a European campaign. Each is a one-time download of the current version, with the Excel file included and the accuracy guarantee published on the page. Start with the free sample and hold us to the standard described on our FAQ page.
