MarketBetter vs Clearbit (Breeze Intelligence): B2B Data Enrichment Comparison [2026]
If you've been researching B2B data enrichment tools, you've likely come across Clearbit — or more recently, Breeze Intelligence, since Clearbit was acquired by HubSpot and integrated into their ecosystem.
The acquisition has left many sales teams wondering: Should we stick with Clearbit/Breeze, or explore alternatives that offer more than just data?
This comparison breaks down how MarketBetter and Clearbit (Breeze Intelligence) differ — and helps you decide which fits your sales workflow better.
The Core Difference: Data vs. Direction
Here's the fundamental distinction:
-
Clearbit/Breeze Intelligence: Enriches your records with company and contact data. You get firmographics, technographics, and IP-to-company identification.
-
MarketBetter: Enriches your records AND tells your SDRs exactly what to do next. You get the data plus a prioritized playbook of actions.
The analogy: Clearbit hands you a map. MarketBetter hands you the map AND turn-by-turn navigation.

| IP-to-Company ID | ✅ Core feature | ✅ Real-time visitor identification |
| Intent Scoring | ⚠️ Basic (page views) | ✅ AI-powered intent + ICP scoring |

Pricing Comparison
Clearbit / Breeze Intelligence Pricing
Clearbit's pricing has always been enterprise-oriented and has become even more opaque since the HubSpot acquisition:
- Now bundled within HubSpot's higher tiers
- Standalone pricing typically starts at $15,000-$20,000/year for basic enrichment
- Visitor identification (Reveal) adds additional cost
- Per-record pricing can add up quickly at scale
The catch: If you're not already on HubSpot, getting Clearbit's full value means committing to HubSpot's ecosystem.
MarketBetter Pricing
- Transparent pricing starting at $39/month for visitor identification
- All-in-one plans include enrichment, tasks, outreach, and dialer
- No per-record fees for standard usage
- Works with HubSpot OR Salesforce
Who Should Choose Clearbit (Breeze Intelligence)?
Clearbit is a good fit if you:
- Are already deeply invested in HubSpot's ecosystem
- Need data enrichment primarily for marketing operations (scoring, segmentation)
- Have a mature RevOps team to build workflows around enriched data
- Want best-in-class firmographic accuracy and don't need SDR automation
- Have budget for enterprise pricing
Common Clearbit use cases:
- Form shortening (auto-fill fields from email)
- Lead scoring based on firmographics
- Account-based marketing segmentation
- Data hygiene and deduplication
Who Should Choose MarketBetter?
MarketBetter is a good fit if you:
- Have an SDR team that needs clear direction on daily priorities
- Want visitor identification + action in one platform
- Need AI-powered outreach that writes personalized emails
- Are looking for a Clearbit alternative with more sales execution features
- Want transparent, accessible pricing
Why teams switch from Clearbit to MarketBetter:
-
"We enriched 10,000 leads but SDRs still didn't know who to call first"
- Clearbit tells you WHO the lead is
- MarketBetter tells you WHO to call, WHEN to call, and WHAT to say
-
"We're not ready to go all-in on HubSpot"
- Clearbit's future is HubSpot-native
- MarketBetter works with your existing CRM without lock-in
-
"We need more than data — we need workflow"
- Data enrichment alone doesn't move pipeline
- SDRs need prioritized tasks, not more data to interpret
The Visitor Identification Question
Both platforms identify companies visiting your website. Here's how they differ:
Clearbit Reveal:
- Shows company name, industry, size
- Requires separate workflows to action the data
- Best when feeding into HubSpot for marketing automation
MarketBetter Visitor Intelligence:
- Shows company + estimated buying intent
- Automatically creates SDR tasks for high-intent visitors
- Prioritizes visitors against your ICP criteria
- SDRs see exactly who to contact and what to say
Example workflow:
Clearbit: VP of Sales at 500-person SaaS company visits your pricing page → Record created → You build a HubSpot workflow → Lead gets scored → SDR eventually sees it in a queue
MarketBetter: Same visitor → System identifies high-intent signal → SDR gets a task: "Call John at Acme Corp - visited pricing page 3x this week, ICP match: 92%" with suggested talking points
Making the Switch
If you're currently on Clearbit and considering MarketBetter:
-
Data continuity: Your enriched CRM records stay intact. MarketBetter adds to your data, doesn't replace it.
-
HubSpot compatibility: MarketBetter integrates with HubSpot bidirectionally — you don't lose your HubSpot investment.
-
Pilot approach: Many teams run MarketBetter alongside existing tools first, then consolidate once they see SDR productivity gains.
The Bottom Line
Choose Clearbit (Breeze Intelligence) if you need best-in-class B2B data enrichment for marketing operations and are committed to HubSpot's ecosystem.
Choose MarketBetter if you want data enrichment PLUS an AI-powered SDR command center that tells your team exactly what to do with that data.
The reality: Data alone doesn't close deals. The teams hitting quota in 2026 aren't the ones with the most data — they're the ones turning signals into actions fastest.
