Clearbit no longer sells standalone : the product now lives inside HubSpot as Breeze Intelligence. Teams shopping for alternatives usually want lower cost, better regional coverage, or a workflow that does not depend on a CRM subscription. The 10 options below cover those cases, and Derrick App leads on per-row credit economics from €20/month.

Context03 / 09

The original Clearbit was the gold-standard B2B enrichment API for nearly a decade - 4.4/5 across 629+ G2 reviews. HubSpot acquired it in November 2023 and has fully retired the standalone product. As of 2026, 'Clearbit' the platform no longer exists; it's been folded into HubSpot under the Breeze Intelligence brand. If you're a non-HubSpot customer reading this in 2026, Clearbit is no longer accessible - your alternatives are Apollo, Cognism, ZoomInfo or Derrick.

Most teams that outgrow Clearbit cite one of three reasons : standalone product is gone - hubspot lock-in, tier-pricing surprises, or friction with their existing pipeline tooling. The 10 alternatives below cover the full range of replacement profiles - from cheaper SMB picks to enterprise-tier upgrades.

Featured alternative : Derrick App - the no-install web app option from €20/month. The 10-option comparison below is structured to let you filter by budget, workflow, or geographic priority in under a minute.

Why teams leave Clearbit

  • Standalone product is gone - HubSpot lock-in
  • Effective price increase for non-HubSpot buyers
  • Credit-expiry model wastes budget
  • Data quality drops outside US/UK/EU

How to choose06 / 09

Choosing a B2B Enrichment tool after Clearbit

Two filters : a per-profile pick (cards below) and a granular criteria matrix (budget / workflow / use case / team size).

If you do not want the data tied to a CRM subscription

Derrick App

Enrichment bundled into a CRM stops the day the CRM contract does. Derrick is billed on its own, per row, from €20 a month for 10,000 credits, and the rows stay in your spreadsheet, your database or your script.

See full profile ↓
If the blocker is the unit price at volume

Derrick App (Scale)

€320 a month for 200,000 credits is €0.0016 per credit, the bottom of the grid, with no seat fee at any tier. Per-row billing behaves the same at 100 rows and at 200,000, so the cost follows the list rather than the headcount.

See full profile ↓
If enrichment has to fire from your own code

Derrick App (REST API and MCP)

From the €47.50 PLUS plan, one authenticated call per record returns structured JSON, so a signup webhook, a CRM sync or a nightly job can trigger it. The same account answers from Claude or any MCP client, and the web app runs the same enrichments with nothing to install.

The verdict07 / 09

Verdict : which Clearbit alternative to pick

The right Clearbit alternative depends primarily on your use case + budget + workflow shape. Four questions settle it faster than a feature matrix.

  • Does the data come with a platform attached ? Enrichment bundled into a CRM ends with the CRM contract. Derrick App is billed on its own, per row, from €20/month.
  • What is the unit price at your volume ? Read the per-credit rate at the top of the grid, not the entry price. Derrick's floor is €0.0016 per credit on Scale, €320/month for 200,000 credits.
  • Where do the enriched rows have to land ? A spreadsheet, a CRM or a script are three different answers, and the table above shows which tools reach each without an integration to maintain.
  • Does coverage hold in your markets ? Regional gaps, not feature gaps, are the usual reason a migration disappoints. Test 50 of your own rows before signing anything.

Clearbit answered the enrichment question for HubSpot-anchored teams. These alternatives become relevant when a specific constraint (pricing, workflow shape, coverage) tips the scale. Trial 2-3 candidates head-to-head on your own list before committing.

What is the best Clearbit alternative in 2026?

+
It depends on what replaced what. Clearbit no longer sells standalone, so the question is usually whether you stay inside HubSpot or move the data layer out of it. If you move it out, Derrick App runs in its web app or the Google Sheets sidebar from €20/month for 10,000 credits, with a free plan at 100 credits a month, and reaches the same data through a REST API and an MCP server. The table above ranks the ten options on price, coverage and workflow fit.

Is there a free Clearbit alternative?

+
Several alternatives offer free tiers : Derrick App (free plan, 100 credits per month, no card), Apollo (Free forever with 10K credits), and Hunter (limited free tier). Derrick's free plan renews 100 credits every month, with no card and no trial clock, so an evaluation can run as long as it needs to. Most paid alternatives start in the $10-50/month range for solo use.

How does Clearbit pricing compare to its alternatives?

+
Clearbit starts at Discontinued standalone - see Breeze ($45/mo). Comparable alternatives range from $9/mo (100 credits) (cheapest) to enterprise custom contracts ($1K-10K+/year) at the high end. The right comparison isn't just headline price - factor in credit caps, seat fees, and bundled features per tier. Derrick App's 20 EUR/month entry plan is unique in giving you 10,000 credits to spend row by row in its web app, Google Sheets, Claude or the API.

Can I switch from Clearbit to a tool that also runs in Sheets?

+
Yes - Derrick App is built specifically for this migration. Export your data from Clearbit as CSV, then import it into the Derrick web app, or paste it into Google Sheets and use the Derrick sidebar (pick the feature, map your columns) for enrichment. No platform onboarding, no Zapier integration to maintain. Most teams complete the switch in under 30 minutes.

Which Clearbit alternative is best for b2b enrichment (legacy / now hubspot breeze)?

+
Compare on three things rather than on a category name : what the enrichment costs per found record at your volume, whether it requires another subscription to work, and how the rows reach your stack. Derrick App from €20/month replaces the data layer on its own terms, billed per row, with the web app, the Google Sheets sidebar, a REST API and an MCP server on the same account.
