Why teams connect Crustdata and PostgreSQL

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

Crustdata 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 Crustdata — 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

  • 01 Enrich CRM accounts with firmographics, headcount growth, and tech stack so scoring and routing run on complete data.
  • 02 Fill missing contact fields on CRM people records from Crustdata profiles instead of manual research.
  • 03 Expose SaaS objects (CRM contacts, ERP invoices, support tickets) as Postgres tables that internal tools can query and join
  • 04 Let an application write to its own database and have those rows appear as records in business systems in near real time

Common sync patterns

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to PostgreSQL sync onto the matching records in Crustdata, 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 Crustdata API, limits, and retries.

Trigger workflows from CRM changes

Field and stage updates in Crustdata arrive as row changes in PostgreSQL, ready to drive jobs and notifications.

What you can sync between Crustdata 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.

Crustdata objects PostgreSQL objects How this pairing syncs
Headcount and Growth Metrics Time-series employee counts by department and region; read to score accounts on hiring momentum and expansion signals. Sequences Generate surrogate keys for rows created by inbound syncs. Headcount and Growth Metrics is specific to Crustdata and Sequences to PostgreSQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Tech Stack Detected technologies per company; read to build segments and route accounts by the tools they already use. Custom Types and Enums Constrain synced values to a fixed set, mirroring picklist fields. Tech Stack is specific to Crustdata and Custom Types and Enums to PostgreSQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Screener Results Saved company searches with filter criteria; read on a schedule so target-account lists in the CRM refresh as companies enter the criteria. Tables The primary sync target; rows map one-to-one to records in connected SaaS systems. Screener Results is specific to Crustdata and Tables to PostgreSQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Enrichment Responses Real-time enrichment lookups keyed by domain or profile URL; read to append fresh firmographic and contact data at form-fill or record-creation time. Views Read-side projections used to expose joined or filtered data to a sync. Enrichment Responses is specific to Crustdata and Views to PostgreSQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Companies Firmographic records — industry, size, funding, growth signals; read out to enrich CRM accounts and warehouse company tables. Materialized Views Precomputed result sets synced outward on a refresh schedule. Companies is specific to Crustdata and Materialized Views to PostgreSQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
People Contact and profile data for decision-makers; read into a CRM or outreach tool to fill missing titles, emails, and LinkedIn profiles. Schemas Namespaces that scope which tables a sync reads and writes. People is specific to Crustdata and Schemas to PostgreSQL — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Crustdata and PostgreSQL

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.

Crustdata PostgreSQL Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Crustdata for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Pull-based: real-time enrichment endpoints for on-demand lookups plus periodic re-pulls of screeners and datasets.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to PostgreSQL as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

PostgreSQL Crustdata Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in PostgreSQL are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Logical replication (wal_level = logical) for change data capture via the "Postgres" connector.

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

Rate-limit considerations

  • Crustdata: Requests are metered by plan credits and per-minute rate limits; bulk dataset pulls are the efficient path for large refreshes rather than per-record enrichment calls.
  • PostgreSQL: No API rate limits; throughput is bounded by connection limits, instance resources, and replication slot throughput.
