Why teams connect BetterContact and Snowflake

Get the data locked inside BetterContact into Snowflake as live tables, and send results back where BetterContact can use them, without writing a pipeline.

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

Whatever BetterContact is used for, it accumulates data the rest of the company wants to analyze, and that data usually sits behind an API rather than in the warehouse. Building and babysitting an extraction pipeline is the tax most teams pay for it.

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 Feed finance reconciliation models from ERP data landed in Snowflake on a continuous basis
  • 04 Land CRM and ERP records in Snowflake continuously so BI reflects business systems without nightly batch ETL

Common sync patterns

History that outlives the tool

A continuously synced copy in Snowflake preserves a queryable record even as data ages out of BetterContact or gets changed inside it.

Analytics on BetterContact's data

Records and events from BetterContact land in Snowflake as queryable tables, current within seconds and ready to join with the rest of the warehouse.

Cross-tool reporting

Combine BetterContact's data with data from every other synced system to answer questions no single tool can.

What you can sync between BetterContact and Snowflake

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

BetterContact objects Snowflake objects How this pairing syncs
Enriched Contact Verified work emails and mobile numbers with job title, LinkedIn profile, location, and skills. Databases Top-level containers that scope which data a sync can touch. Enriched Contact is specific to BetterContact and Databases to Snowflake — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Company Company data returned with each contact: name, domain, HQ location, industry, employee count. Schemas Namespaces within a database used to organize synced tables. Company is specific to BetterContact and Schemas to Snowflake — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Lead Finder Search Prospect discovery by people and company filters, returning enriched lead profiles. Tables The main landing and activation target for synced records. Lead Finder Search is specific to BetterContact and Tables to Snowflake — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Enrichment Request Batch or single submissions of up to 100 contacts per request for waterfall enrichment. Views Modeled projections used as the source side of outbound syncs. Enrichment Request is specific to BetterContact and Views to Snowflake — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between BetterContact and Snowflake

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 Snowflake 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 applied to Snowflake as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Snowflake BetterContact Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in Snowflake are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. The setup script grants "create stream" on synced schemas (Snowflake streams), but the docs do not name the change-capture mechanism.

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 Snowflake records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • BetterContact: Batches capped at 100 contacts per enrichment request.
  • Snowflake: No conventional API rate limits; cost and throughput are governed by virtual warehouse size and running time.
