FAQs
Is Clearbit Connect free?
Yes, every Connect user receives 100 free credits per month. We want everyone to be able to experience the benefits of powering their outbound programs with accurate emails from the right contacts at the right companies. And this is how we are doing it. Naturally, we run a business too and hope to create opportunities from our extension. A good example being Connect users who want to move from free extension to Clearbit Capture, a capability of ours that allows you to automatically add accounts and key buyer contacts to your CRM from qualified companies that show intent.
How does Connect work?
As you browse the web, Connect checks each domain you visit to see if they match your ideal customer profile. If they do, the extension button changes color to notify you.
Clicking on the Connect widget, you will see lots of information about the company you are currently visiting, including number of employees, funding, and more. If you go to the "People" tab, we will show you a list of people working at that company. Clicking into any of these people will give you the option to get their email, using one of your 100 monthly credits.
Within Gmail, it works similarly, but gives you context on the person you are currently emailing. You can also search for companies and contacts without leaving Gmail.
How many free credits does Connect offer?
Every Connect user receives 100 free credits per month, which is refreshed monthly on the same calendar day as your sign-up. A credit is spent every time an email is revealed within the extension. You’re able to check your credit usage at any time in your Connect settings.
Is there a way to earn more free credits?
Yes. Simply go to your credits dashboard in Connect's settings to see available options to increase your monthly credit quota.
It's also worth noting that with our paid Clearbit Capture capability, customers are able to identify and send thousands of contacts directly to their CRMs.
Does Connect see and/or store my personal data?
As part of the set-up and usage of Connect, we collect three types of data: Personally Identifiable Information (PII) by way of email and name when you create an account via signing up with Google; location data by way of IP address again when you create an account via signing up with Google; Web history by way of collecting URLs in order to provide enriched company data based on those URLs (note: we don’t associate Web history with you as a user). We also require access to your personal communications and we enrich email addresses within Gmail.
