Why teams connect BetterContact and Nutshell

Flow BetterContact data into Nutshell 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 Nutshell, so Nutshell 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 Enrich new CRM leads with verified emails and mobile numbers as they are created, writing results back to the CRM record.
  • 02 Backfill a warehouse of contacts with waterfall enrichment across 20+ data providers.
  • 03 Push closed-won leads to accounting software to trigger invoicing automatically.
  • 04 Keep People and Companies consistent between Nutshell and email marketing or outreach tools.

Common sync patterns

Where BetterContact can store CRM context: fields kept current

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

Where BetterContact runs outreach

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

Where BetterContact supplies contact or company data

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

How changes propagate between BetterContact and Nutshell

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.

BetterContact Nutshell 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 Nutshell through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Nutshell BetterContact Sub-second propagation

DetectionNutshell notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhook subscriptions for record events, with polling as 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 Nutshell records.

Rate-limit considerations

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