The Clearbit API alternative for teams that are not on HubSpot

The full picture

Why teams switch

Clearbit and Breeze Intelligence pricing, September 2026

HubSpot has not published an end date for legacy Clearbit API keys, and HubSpot pricing pages were showing limited-time introductory seat prices on 28 September 2026. Check both before you plan a migration around them.

Sources: HubSpot’s knowledge base and Sales Hub pricing page and Clearbit’s release notes on 2026-09-28, with two 2026 teardowns for the API status and the credit rate. HubSpot does not sell Breeze enrichment on its own, so the real price is the HubSpot seat. BusinessMCP: the first 1,000 first-party credits each month are free; after that credits are billed in arrears at $2.00 per 1,000 for the first 100,000, falling to $0.80 per 1,000 above a million. New paying accounts start with a 50,000-credit monthly cap you can change. Prices come from the same file the charge path reads.

Where BusinessMCP is NOT the right choice

An alternatives page you can trust has to cut both ways. Honestly:

• If you run HubSpot, Breeze enrichment is already included in your paid plan, costs no credits and fills records in place — including continuous refresh and form shortening. An external API cannot match that convenience, and you should not pay us for it.
• company_lookup returns no technographics, revenue, funding or intent fields: name, industry, employee range, founding year, location, phone, LinkedIn, a description and website status is the whole record.
• We do not crawl on demand. A domain we hold no row for returns found=false (and the credit is refunded) rather than a freshly scraped profile, and there is no name-to-domain lookup — you need a domain, URL or work email to start.
• The people tools (people_search, email_finder, person_enrich) need a card and accepted people-data terms, are never covered by the free credits, default to 500 records a day, and never return people in the EU, the EEA, the UK or Switzerland, people we place in California, Texas, Vermont and Oregon, or people we cannot place at all. A European or Californian prospect list is not something this API will build.
• The Data API is a young product from a small company. You get published per-call prices and direct founder support, not an account team, a long track record or an integrations marketplace.

How to migrate

1. 1

   Inventory every Clearbit call you make and note which fields you actually read — most integrations use a handful.

2. 2

   Create a Data API key and swap the Company API call for GET /api/hub/v1/companies/{domain}; for backfills use POST /companies/bulk with up to 100 domains, charged only for the companies found.

3. 3

   Map found=false to your existing “not enriched” path rather than retrying — a miss is an answer, and it was refunded.

4. 4

   If you are on HubSpot, turn on Breeze automatic enrichment for records inside the portal and keep the Data API for what happens outside it.
