Heads up - Derrick is a data layer, not a sequencer. It enriches contacts (email, mobile, company, signals) directly inside Google Sheets. If you also need cold-email sequencing, dialer or CRM workflow, you'll keep your existing stack (La Growth Machine, Lemlist…) - Derrick replaces only the data-enrichment line of your Breeze Intelligence bill.

Breeze Intelligence's 3 paid tiers, side by side

Breeze Intelligence ships 3 tiers. Per-seat pricing combined with a credit system for data lookups - the listed price is rarely the real cost.

HubSpot Core Seats (included)

Included with HubSpot Starter+ $0 incremental monthly
  • CreditsUnlimited basic enrichment/yr
  • Min seats1
  • Standard data enrichment FREE on HubSpot Core Seats (INBOUND 2025 update)
  • Firmographic + demographic auto-fill on contacts/companies
  • Available on any paid HubSpot tier
  • No separate Breeze credits required for basic enrichment
Only standard enrichment is free. Smart Property enrichment (custom AI-powered fields) still consumes credits. Requires paid HubSpot subscription minimum.

HubSpot Credits (Smart Property + Agents)

Starter 500/mo • Pro 3,000/mo • Enterprise 5,000/mo Bundled per HubSpot tier monthly
  • Credits6K / 36K / 60K/yr
  • Min seats1
  • 500 HubSpot credits/mo on Starter ($15/mo CRM)
  • 3,000 credits/mo on Professional ($1,170/mo CRM)
  • 5,000 credits/mo on Enterprise ($4,135/mo CRM)
  • Conversion: 1 Breeze legacy credit = 15 HubSpot credits
Credits cover Smart Property enrichment + AI Agents (Breeze Assistant, Copilot, etc). Standard enrichment is free. Overage: $10/1K credits monthly, $9/1K annual.

Annual via sales $45-$700/mo (variable) monthly
  • CreditsVariable/yr

  • Used for high-volume Smart Property workflows
  • Stacks on top of bundled HubSpot Credits
30-day expiry on top-up packs (no rollover). Annual auto-upgrade still applies - exceed monthly cap and you're billed at higher tier for remaining contract.
Why these tiers exist - full plan breakdown

Breeze Intelligence pricing uses a credit system where each enrichment action consumes 1 credit. The total cost breaks down into two distinct parts:

Cost 1: HubSpot Subscription (Required)

Breeze Intelligence doesn’t work standalone. It requires a HubSpot platform subscription:

HubSpot Plan Price/month Users included Notes
Starter Customer Platform $15/month 1 user After first-year promotion
Professional Customer Platform $1,170/month 6 users +$45/additional user
Enterprise Customer Platform $4,135/month 8 users +$75/additional user

💡 Most companies using Breeze Intelligence are on Professional or Enterprise plans, bringing the base cost well above $1,000/month before even purchasing credits.

Cost 2: Breeze Intelligence Credits

Credits are sold in monthly packs:

Pack Price/month (annual) Price/month (monthly) Price/credit Rollover
100 credits $45 $50 $0.45 ❌ No
1,000 credits ~$450* ~$500* ~$0.45* ❌ No
10,000 credits ~$4,500* ~$5,000* ~$0.45* ❌ No

*Estimates based on user reports and analysis articles (sources: Cognism, eesel AI, Warmly). HubSpot doesn’t publicly publish prices for packs beyond 100 credits.

⚠️ Critical: Breeze Intelligence credits expire every 30 days. There’s no rollover from one month to the next, unlike many competitors offering this flexibility.

Real Minimum Total Cost

To use Breeze Intelligence, here’s the absolute minimum cost:

Minimum configuration:

  • HubSpot Starter: $15/month
  • Breeze Intelligence 100 credits: $45/month
  • Total: $60/month for 100 enrichments/month maximum

Typical configuration (average company):

  • HubSpot Professional: $1,170/month
  • Breeze Intelligence 1,000 credits: ~approximately $150-$300/mo (verify with HubSpot sales)nth
  • Total: ~$1,620/month for 1,000 enrichments/month

Credit Billing Policy

According to HubSpot documentation, billing works as follows:

  • 1 credit consumed for each record enrichment (contact or company)
  • No credit consumed if you re-enrich a record already enriched during the current period
  • Auto-upgrade by default: If you exceed your monthly limit, HubSpot automatically upgrades you to the next tier for the remainder of your contract (surprise billing risk)
  • Pay-as-you-go option: Available but must be manually activated to avoid auto-upgrades

💡 Automatic auto-upgrade can turn one exceptional month into an annual surcharge. A company exceeding credits by 10% in a single month could be billed for the higher tier for 12 months.

How Breeze Intelligence credits work

Breeze Intelligence bills actions in credits with non-equal costs. A 5,000-credit plan does NOT mean 5,000 lookups.

Record enrichment (1 credit) 1
HubSpot subscription (REQUIRED) +$15-$4,135/mo
Additional HubSpot user +$45 (Pro) / +$75 (Enterprise)
Phone reveals Not available
Unused credits No rollover (30-day expiry)

Hidden costs to know before buying Breeze Intelligence

Things Breeze Intelligence's pricing page doesn't put in big type.

Breeze Intelligence = Clearbit rebranded (post-HubSpot acquisition)

HubSpot acquired Clearbit December 2023 and rebranded as Breeze Intelligence April 2024. Old standalone Clearbit completely deprecated. All historical free tools shut down. Pricing model fundamentally changed - Clearbit users forced into HubSpot stack.

HubSpot REQUIRED - no standalone access

Cannot use Breeze without HubSpot subscription. Starter $15 → Pro $1,170 → Enterprise $4,135. True entry $60/mo (Starter + 100 credits). Mid-market typical = $1,620/mo. Salesforce / Pipedrive users: must adopt HubSpot or look elsewhere.

Auto-upgrade RISK : exceed limit = forced higher tier for remaining contract

If you exceed monthly credit cap, HubSpot auto-upgrades to next tier for the remainder of your annual contract. One exceptional month can lock you into higher tier billing for 11 more months. Must manually enable pay-as-you-go to avoid.

NO phone reveals (post-acquisition feature loss)

Old Clearbit Prospector offered phones. Breeze dropped phone reveals entirely. For phone-needed enrichment, mandatory separate tool (Kaspr, Lusha, Scalelist) on top of $1,620+/mo HubSpot stack.

Credits don't roll over (30-day expiry)

Unused credits expire monthly. At 10K pack ($4,500/mo) with 1.5K typical usage, that's 8.5K credits/mo lost = $42K/year wasted. Major economics issue at higher tiers.

Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Over 12 Months

Scenario: Average company, 1,500 enrichments/month

With Breeze Intelligence:

  • Pack required: 10,000 credits (~$4,500/month estimated)
  • HubSpot Professional subscription: $1,170/month
  • Annual cost: ~$68,040
  • Credits lost to expiration: ~102,000 credits/year (8,500/month unused)
  • Financial loss: ~$42,500/year

With Derrick Standard:

  • Total credits over 12 months with rollover: 120,000 credits (accumulated)
  • Real usage: 18,000 credits/year (1,500 × 12)
  • Annual cost: $264
  • Remaining accumulated credits: 102,000 credits available

Annual savings: $67,776 | Derrick is 258x cheaper in this scenario.

Transparent vs Opaque Pricing

A recurring friction point with Breeze Intelligence is the lack of transparent pricing beyond the 100 credit pack:

Breeze Intelligence:

  • ✅ Published price: 100 credit pack ($45/month)
  • ❌ Non-public prices: 1,000 and 10,000 credit packs (requires sales contact)
  • ❌ Quote required: Custom volumes
  • ⚠️ Auto-upgrade: Risk of surprise tier increase

Derrick:

  • ✅ 100% transparent pricing: All plans publicly displayed
  • ✅ Cost calculator: Estimate your budget in real-time
  • ✅ No surprises: No automatic upgrade or hidden fees
  • ✅ Try for free: 100 credits/month without credit card

💡 Pricing transparency is essential for SMBs and startups that need to budget their prospecting tools precisely without risk of unexpected expenses.

What's included in every Breeze Intelligence plan

Features Available with Credits

Data Enrichment (1 credit per record)

  • Automatic company profile enrichment (200M+ profiles)
  • Enriched fields: industry, company size, revenue, location, technology used
  • Works on new contacts and existing contact updates
  • Native HubSpot CRM integration

Form Shortening (1 credit per conversion)

  • Intelligent website form auto-fill
  • Reduced friction for visitors (fewer fields to fill)
  • Increased form conversion rates
  • Works even for visitors unknown to CRM

Buyer Intent Tracking (included, consumes credits based on usage)

  • Anonymous visitor identification via reverse-IP lookup
  • Navigation behavior tracking (pages visited, time spent)
  • Automatic buying intent signal scoring
  • Alerts on high-intent accounts

Continuous Enrichment (available on 1,000+ credit packs)

  • Automatic and continuous CRM data updates
  • Periodic company profile refresh
  • Organizational change detection

Important Limitations

No direct contact data:

  • ❌ No phone numbers provided
  • ❌ No direct emails (only enriches contacts with existing email)
  • ✅ Only firmographic data (company)

Closed ecosystem:

  • Works exclusively within HubSpot (no external API or native CSV export)
  • Requires HubSpot Customer Platform subscription
  • No integration with other CRMs without going through HubSpot

Variable data quality: According to user feedback on G2 and Reddit, enrichment quality can be inconsistent, sometimes with data identical to what HubSpot’s “Company Insights” (free feature) previously provided.

Differences by Credit Level

Feature 100 credits 1,000 credits 10,000 credits
Basic data enrichment ✅ ✅ ✅
Form shortening ✅ ✅ ✅
Buyer intent tracking ✅ ✅ ✅
Continuous enrichment ❌ ✅ ✅
Priority support ❌ ✅ ✅
Dedicated account manager ❌ ❌ ✅

💡 Continuous enrichment, a key feature for maintaining data freshness, is only available starting at the 1,000 credit pack (~approximately $150-$300/mo (verify with HubSpot sales)nth + HubSpot subscription), making the 100 credit offering very limited in practice.

Add to Google SheetsSee pricing

How much does Breeze Intelligence cost per month?

+

The minimum cost of Breeze Intelligence is $60/month, including $45/month for 100 credits + $15/month minimum for required HubSpot Starter subscription. In practice, most companies pay between $1,500 and $5,000/month because they use HubSpot Professional or Enterprise plans ($1,170-4,135/month) combined with higher credit packs ($450-4,500/month estimated).

Do Breeze Intelligence credits expire?

+

Yes, all Breeze Intelligence credits expire after 30 days aligned with your subscription date. There’s no rollover from one month to the next. Unused credits are lost, representing a significant financial loss for companies with irregular activity. Alternatives like Derrick offer unlimited credit rollover on paid plans, avoiding this waste.

Does Breeze Intelligence work without HubSpot?

+

No, Breeze Intelligence absolutely requires a HubSpot Customer Platform subscription (minimum $15/month for Starter, typically $1,170/month for Professional). The tool works exclusively within the HubSpot ecosystem and cannot be used standalone or with other CRMs. If you’re looking for a standalone enrichment tool working with Google Sheets, check out Breeze Intelligence alternatives.

What’s the price of Breeze Intelligence for a startup?

+

For a startup, the realistic minimum cost is about $1,620/month, including HubSpot Professional ($1,170/month for 6 users) + Breeze Intelligence 1,000 credits (~approximately $150-$300/mo (verify with HubSpot sales)nth). The Starter plan ($60/month total) only offers 100 credits/month and severely limits HubSpot features. At this pricing level, alternatives like Derrick at €20/month for 10,000 credits represent a 98.6% savings ($1,598/month saved).

Does Breeze Intelligence provide phone numbers?

+

No, Breeze Intelligence doesn’t provide phone numbers. The tool focuses on firmographic data enrichment (industry, company size, revenue) and doesn’t offer phone finding. For enrichment including emails AND phones, you’ll need a complementary tool or an alternative like Derrick which integrates phone finding (150 credits/number, final cost $0.33-0.37 depending on plan).

Can I change Breeze Intelligence plans mid-month?

+

Yes, but with important restrictions. HubSpot allows upgrading to a higher plan anytime (immediate effect), but downgrades only take effect at the end of the current contract period. By default, if you exceed your credit limit, HubSpot activates an automatic auto-upgrade that bills you for the higher tier for the remainder of your annual commitment. You can disable this option in favor of pay-as-you-go, but it must be manually configured.

What’s the difference between Clearbit and Breeze Intelligence?

+

Clearbit and Breeze Intelligence are the same tool. HubSpot acquired Clearbit in November 2023 and rebranded it “Breeze Intelligence” in 2026 when launching its “Breeze” AI suite. The product is now more deeply integrated into the HubSpot ecosystem, uses the unified HubSpot Credits system, and benefits from HubSpot’s LLMs (Large Language Models) to improve enrichment quality. Base pricing and features remain similar, but integration is more native and pricing is aligned with other Breeze services.

Is Breeze Intelligence worth the cost for my business?

+

It heavily depends on your situation:

Breeze Intelligence may fit if:

  • You’re already heavily invested in HubSpot (Professional or Enterprise)
  • You specifically need form shortening and buyer intent tracking
  • You enrich a low consistent monthly volume (~100-500 records)
  • Your budget allows $1,500-5,000/month

Alternatives are more suitable if:

  • You don’t use HubSpot or are on free/Starter plan
  • You need direct email or phone finding
  • Your enrichment volume varies greatly (seasonal activity)
  • You’re looking to optimize costs (ROI)

For most SMBs and startups, the 180x higher cost per credit of Breeze Intelligence vs alternatives like Derrick, combined with required expensive HubSpot subscription and lack of rollover, makes it difficult to justify financially.

How does Breeze Intelligence compare to Apollo.io or ZoomInfo?

+

Breeze Intelligence positions differently:

vs Apollo.io:

  • Apollo offers email + phone + complete enrichment (Breeze: firmographic enrichment only)
  • Apollo works standalone (Breeze: requires HubSpot)
  • Apollo from $49/month (Breeze: $60/month minimum, $1,620/month typical)

vs ZoomInfo:

  • ZoomInfo is an exhaustive B2B database with verified contacts (Breeze: automatic enrichment of existing records)
  • ZoomInfo pricing on quote ~$15,000-40,000/year (Breeze: ~$20,000-70,000/year depending on usage)
  • ZoomInfo includes phone + email + intent data (Breeze: firmographic + intent only)

vs Derrick:

  • Derrick offers email (5 credits) + phone (150 credits) + LinkedIn enrichment (1 credit)
  • Derrick 225x cheaper per credit (€0.002 vs $0.45)
  • Derrick unlimited rollover (Breeze: monthly expiration)
  • Derrick integrated Google Sheets (Breeze: HubSpot only)
