What is Clearbit?

Clearbit is a B2B enrichment and data provider (now HubSpot Breeze Intelligence post-acquisition). It covers company and person attributes, reveal, and form enrichment — historically paired with HubSpot or Salesforce for lead/account data hygiene.

Who it's for: RevOps and marketing teams needing company/person enrichment on CRM records, MAP forms, and website visitor reveal — particularly HubSpot-centric stacks.

Core Use Cases

  • Enrich MAP and CRM records with firmographics and personographics
  • Website visitor reveal for ABM outreach
  • Form shortening via progressive enrichment
  • Data hygiene maintenance across the inbound funnel

Pricing Overview

Historically per-record or tiered monthly; post-HubSpot acquisition, increasingly bundled as Breeze Intelligence for HubSpot customers. Mid-market teams commonly landed low-four to low-five figures monthly pre-acquisition.

Strengths

  • Deep integration with HubSpot (now native via Breeze) and Salesforce
  • Established dataset for US-centric B2B firmographic enrichment
  • Reveal product is a staple for ABM visitor-identification plays
  • Mature API and form enrichment patterns

Weaknesses

  • Product roadmap uncertain post-HubSpot acquisition — net-new investment shifted into Breeze
  • International and small-business coverage is weaker than aggregator-style alternatives
  • Pricing model was less flexible than usage-based Clay-style aggregators
  • Easy to pay twice when Apollo, ZoomInfo, or similar already cover the same records

Best Alternatives

When to Use It

  • You are a HubSpot customer using Breeze Intelligence as an extension of your CRM
  • Website reveal for ABM outreach is a measurable part of your motion
  • You need straightforward enrichment without managing a waterfall of providers

When NOT to Use It

  • You already pay for Apollo or ZoomInfo — Clearbit is often duplicate enrichment
  • You need global coverage or flexible usage-based pricing (Clay/Apollo fit better)
  • You want to consolidate enrichment into a single aggregator-orchestrator layer

StackSwap Insight

Clearbit alongside Apollo or ZoomInfo is one of the most common duplicate-enrichment patterns — two tools covering the same fields with conflicting logic. Post-HubSpot acquisition the calculus shifted again: Breeze Intelligence may already be in your HubSpot bill. StackScan surfaces these overlaps directly.
