Why teams connect Attio and BetterContact

Flow BetterContact data into Attio in real time — no exports, no schedulers, no custom scripts.

BetterContact is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into Attio, so Attio always reflects the current state of BetterContact — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

The CRM is supposed to be the record of every customer relationship, but customer-relevant information also accumulates in the other tools a team runs. Whatever BetterContact holds or produces that touches a customer, whether conversations, payments, replies, enriched data, or notes, the CRM only benefits if it arrives without someone copying it over.

Common use cases

  • 01 Backfill a warehouse of contacts with waterfall enrichment across 20+ data providers.
  • 02 Feed outbound sequencing tools with verified contact data before campaigns launch.
  • 03 Write product usage and enrichment data into Attio attributes so GTM teams work from live account signals.
  • 04 Keep Attio aligned with a billing system or ERP on customer records and plan status.

Common sync patterns

Where BetterContact can store CRM context: fields kept current

Owner, lifecycle stage, or account details from Attio sync into BetterContact, so people working there have the context without switching tools.

Where BetterContact runs outreach

Prospects, sends, and replies sync into Attio, keeping lead status current without manual imports.

Where BetterContact supplies contact or company data

Enriched fields land directly on records in Attio, and refreshes keep them from going stale.

How changes propagate between Attio and BetterContact

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Attio BetterContact Sub-second propagation

DetectionAttio notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks on record and list-entry events, with polling as a fallback.

DeliveryBetterContact does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: BetterContact's output flows back as field updates on the originating Attio records.

BetterContact Attio Sub-second propagation

DetectionBetterContact notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Job-based delivery — enrichment results arrive by webhook push or polling of the results endpoint.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Attio through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Attio: Subject to the platform's published API rate limits.
  • BetterContact: Batches capped at 100 contacts per enrichment request.
