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

Question

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.

I have real-time access to the **Browser tool** for live web searches and current information retrieval. Let me know if you'd like me to look something up!

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tool, but like many of these databases, it faced the same issue: they start with strong data quality but tend to become outdated after the first year.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.
