HG Insights integration

HG Insights integration

Uncover enterprise-grade technographic and parent company data while enriching foundational company data.

Overview

The HG Insights integration brings enterprise-grade technology intelligence data points, enabling teams to access proprietary data such as:

  • Technology Intelligence: In-depth details about a company’s tech stack that typically is hard to find.
  • Firmographic Data: Insights into company size, revenue, and more.
  • Corporate Hierarchy Data Points: Accurate mapping of parent-child relationships within target companies.

Creating a table with HG Insights

  1. In a workbook, click + Add at the bottom.
  2. Search for HG Insights and select from the results.
  3. In the modal, you will be asked to Select HG Insights account.
    • If you haven't already connected your HG Insights account, click + Add account and go through authentication.

Source Companies by product usage with HG Insights

Build lists of companies based on what technology they use, including "back of house" tools that you won't find on a website.

Note: Earlier releases of these actions are still listed for workspaces that already run them, shown with a (Deprecated) prefix on the action name. Columns built on them keep working, but new filters and output fields only arrive in the current release. When you next touch one of those columns, point it at the action of the same name without the prefix.
