Why teams connect Clearbit and Drift

Run Clearbit and Drift side by side with the same accounts and contacts in both, whether they serve different teams or one is replacing the other.

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

Two CRMs in one company is more common than anyone plans for: an acquisition brings its own system, regions or business units standardize differently, or a migration is under way and both are live. In every case, some of the same companies and people exist in both systems, and every day of manual double entry pushes the copies further apart.

Common use cases

  • Enrich new CRM leads with person and company attributes as they are created, keyed by email and domain.
  • Append technographic fields to account records in the warehouse for ICP scoring models.
  • Land conversation transcripts and outcomes in a warehouse for funnel and chat-to-pipeline analysis.
  • Enrich Drift contact and account records with firmographic or product data from an internal database to sharpen playbook targeting.

Migration with a parallel run

When one CRM is replacing the other, run both fully live until cutover, with no snapshot gap and no data freeze.

Divisional or regional split

Where each CRM serves a different team or region, sync just the shared accounts and contacts so handoffs and cross-sell work.

Where both track pipeline: deal visibility across systems

Deal stage and value on shared accounts stay visible from either CRM.

What you can sync between Clearbit and Drift

Clearbit objects Drift objects
Enrichment attributes The firmographic and technographic fields appended to destination records. Playbooks Bot flows that generate conversations and qualify visitors.
