Why teams connect Clearbit and PostgreSQL

Treat Clearbit like part of your database: its records live in PostgreSQL as real tables, and writes in either place sync to the other in seconds.

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

Product and engineering teams constantly need CRM data, and the CRM API is a poor way to get it: rate limits, pagination, custom objects, and integration code that breaks when an admin renames a field. What they actually want is the data in PostgreSQL, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Common use cases

  • Route and score inbound demo requests using Clearbit company size and industry data synced into the CRM.
  • Refresh firmographic fields on existing accounts on a schedule so segmentation stays current.
  • Feed reporting and BI from a continuously synced Postgres replica instead of scheduled ETL scripts
  • Expose SaaS objects (CRM contacts, ERP invoices, support tickets) as Postgres tables that internal tools can query and join

Query the CRM like a database

Accounts, contacts, and custom objects from Clearbit become tables in PostgreSQL you can join with application data directly.

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to PostgreSQL sync onto the matching records in Clearbit, giving go-to-market teams live product context.

Internal tools without API code

Back-office apps read and write the synced tables; Stacksync handles the Clearbit API, limits, and retries.

What you can sync between Clearbit and PostgreSQL

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.

Clearbit objects PostgreSQL objects
Reveal matches IP-to-company resolutions used to identify anonymous website traffic. Custom Types and Enums Constrain synced values to a fixed set, mirroring picklist fields.
Name-to-domain lookups Company name resolution used to normalize account records before enrichment. Tables The primary sync target; rows map one-to-one to records in connected SaaS systems.
Enrichment attributes The firmographic and technographic fields appended to destination records. Views Read-side projections used to expose joined or filtered data to a sync.
Companies Firmographic profiles looked up by domain and merged into account records. Materialized Views Precomputed result sets synced outward on a refresh schedule.
Persons Individual profiles looked up by email and used to enrich contacts and leads. Schemas Namespaces that scope which tables a sync reads and writes.
