Realtime company and people data as APIs or webhooks
Published Oct 15, 2026
| Starting Price | Not clearly published (credit-based; free trial; bulk data appears quote-based) | Entry-level monthly self-serve tiers with scaling options | Custom/contracted; commonly reported as high-entry, enterprise-oriented pricing |
| Primary use case | Real-time triggers and API/webhook enrichment for platforms and agents | API-first datasets across employees, companies, and jobs with self-serve tiers | Enterprise sales and marketing teams needing workflow-ready prospecting, intent, and integrations |
| Key Strength | Event-driven Watcher approach; combination of bulk and API delivery; positioning for automation/agents | Transparent pricing; dataset breadth (employees/jobs/companies) and webhooks in higher tiers | Depth of sales intelligence suite, intent data, org charts, and GTM workflows |
| Key Weakness | Limited third-party reviews; unclear public security posture; varying definitions of "real-time" across signals | May not provide the same productization for agent workflows; quality varies by source and use case | Expensive; complex crediting and licensing; often requires annual commitments |
