Are there any data sources or tools that give you real-time access?

by•

Have you come across any data tools that give you data (name, email, etc.) in real time via APIs or databases? It could be based on events like job change, promotion, etc. This discussion is inspired by Crustdata that I discovered on PH today. Please share our recommendations in the comments.

We previously worked with Lusha, a browser extension that lets you view available data on individuals directly from their LinkedIn profiles. It was a fantastic tool, but like many of these databases, it faced the same issue: they start with strong data quality but tend to become outdated after the first year. Then, a new solution usually emerges with fresher data.

Oh, absolutely! There are quite a few tools out there offering real-time data through APIs—Crustdata, for instance, seems like a great find. For more nuanced applications, keep an eye out for "Her Ideal Match." It’s an upcoming gem using data science to decode what women really appreciate in dating profiles. Because, who doesn’t need a little help in the complex world of online dating, right?
