Arkham Intelligence Alternative: Bulk Wallet Labels via API
September 20, 2026
Arkham Intelligence is a great way to explore one address at a time in a dashboard. But a lot of teams don't need a UI — they have a list of ten thousand or a million addresses and need every one labeled in a file they can join against their own data. That's a different job.
What people actually want from an 'alternative'
When people search for an Arkham alternative, they usually want three things: label a large list of addresses at once, get results as CSV or JSON instead of a screen, and pay per address instead of a platform subscription.
The three label types that matter
- Entity / owner — who controls the address (Binance, Coinbase, OKX, and more).
- Wallet type — hot wallet, cold wallet, deposit address, contract.
- Risk tags — centralized exchange, mixer, sanctioned, high-transacting.
How ChainLabel does it
Send a batch of addresses to one API endpoint and get back one row per address per network — entity, wallet type, and risk tags — across Ethereum, BSC, Base, Arbitrum, Polygon, Avalanche and more. Pricing is per address, and every label is re-checked through our pipelines daily so attribution stays current.
Output that joins against your data
The reason teams reach for an API over a dashboard is the output. Every address comes back as a structured row — query_address, network, entity_name, label_name, chain_tags — so you can load it straight into a warehouse table or a spreadsheet and join it against your own transaction data. No screenshots, no copy-paste, no manual reconciliation.
For a one-off list where you don't want to write any code at all, the bulk export takes a file and returns a labeled file. For a recurring pipeline, the API is the right call.
How much it costs
See a full breakdown in Address Labels API Pricing: ChainLabel vs Arkham, Nansen, MetaSleuth & Block Explorers. The short version: labeling a million addresses runs $499/month on ChainLabel, versus free-but-not-for-bulk on Arkham.
If your work is exploratory and visual, a dashboard is great. If it's 'here are 200,000 addresses, tell me what they are', you want a bulk API — start free and try it on your own list.
