Why teams connect Clearbit and Postgres Heroku

Treat Clearbit like part of your database: its records live in Postgres Heroku 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 Postgres Heroku, so Postgres Heroku 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 Postgres Heroku, where it can be queried and joined like everything else.

Common use cases

  • Append technographic fields to account records in the warehouse for ICP scoring models.
  • Route and score inbound demo requests using Clearbit company size and industry data synced into the CRM.
  • Keep several Heroku app databases aligned with one system of record
  • Reflect billing and subscription records into the app database so product logic reads local rows

Query the CRM like a database

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

Product events onto CRM records

Signup, usage, or lifecycle changes written to Postgres Heroku 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 Postgres Heroku

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 Postgres Heroku objects
Reveal matches IP-to-company resolutions used to identify anonymous website traffic. Sequences Generate surrogate keys for rows created by inbound syncs.
Name-to-domain lookups Company name resolution used to normalize account records before enrichment. Follower Databases Heroku-managed read replicas usable as low-impact sync sources.
Enrichment attributes The firmographic and technographic fields appended to destination records. Tables Standard Postgres tables; the primary two-way sync target for app data.
Companies Firmographic profiles looked up by domain and merged into account records. Views Read-side projections exposed to outbound syncs.
Persons Individual profiles looked up by email and used to enrich contacts and leads. Materialized Views Precomputed result sets synced outward on refresh.

How the Clearbit and Postgres Heroku connectors work

Clearbit

Integration surface
REST API (separate endpoints per product: Enrichment, Reveal)
Authentication
API key (bearer secret key)
Change detection
On-demand lookups; asynchronous enrichment results can be delivered via webhook callbacks
Capabilities
read · webhooks
Rate limits
Subject to plan-based API rate limits and lookup volumes

Postgres Heroku

Integration surface
SQL wire protocol (standard PostgreSQL)
Authentication
Database credentials from the Heroku DATABASE_URL config var; SSL required
Change detection
Trigger-based capture or polling in most configurations; log-based logical replication availability depends on plan and Heroku's managed server settings
Capabilities
read · write
Rate limits
No API rate limits; connection counts and performance are bounded by the Heroku Postgres plan
