How to get an API key

Clearbit uses API key. The steps below follow Clearbit's own docs.

  1. Create a Clearbit account. API access starts on the Legacy Clearbit (Growth / Business / Standard Bundle / Clearbit by HubSpot) plan.
  2. Existing Clearbit accounts only (sign in via HubSpot). New accounts are not being created.

Where the docs live

Strengths and limits

Where it fits

  • Existing Clearbit API customers maintaining legacy integrations (Enrichment, Reveal)
  • Teams on HubSpot Starter+ who want contact/company enrichment inside the CRM (HubSpot data enrichment, no credits)
  • Free company-name autocomplete (unmaintained, no key)

Where it falls short

  • New API buyers: no new standalone Clearbit subscriptions or free accounts
  • Logos: logo.clearbit.com was shut down 2025-12-08 (vendor points to logo.dev)
  • Enrichment from code outside HubSpot: HubSpot's developer docs expose no enrichment endpoint
  • Anything needing a public API reference: dashboard.clearbit.com/docs now redirects to a login
