About us

SpringDB helps companies find the right data, buy it on fair terms, and put it to work inside the products they ship and the systems they sell with.

2018The year we started

MiamiFlorida, where we work from

We handle the part between buying data and trusting it.

SpringDB is a data sourcing and management company. We sit between the buyer and the market, so the people who need the data do not have to become experts in buying it.

Data Exchange
Connects buyers with a network of checked providers, with coverage tested on your own records before you sign.
Setup and delivery
Where the data gets cleaned, matched, joined and delivered into the place you actually use it, then watched after go live.
Buying data looks easy from the outside. Pick a provider, sign the form, plug in the file. In practice the contract has to allow the way you plan to use it, the file has to stay fresh, and someone has to decide which provider to trust when two of them disagree.

What we help with

Most clients need all three, in this order. Some arrive mid way through, with a provider already signed and a feed that is not behaving.

Finding the right data
You know what the data needs to do. We work out which providers can actually do it, and we test them on your records before you sign anything. Coverage on your list, field by field, not a blended score on their sample.
Putting it together
Most companies end up with data from several places. We clean it, match it, and turn it into one record per company or person that your team can trust.
Getting it where it is needed
Into your product, your warehouse, or your sales and marketing tools. We set up delivery, keep it running, and fix it when a provider changes something.

The teams we work with

Teams building products
Founders, engineering leaders and heads of data putting third party data inside what they ship.
Teams driving revenue
Sales, marketing and revenue operations leaders who need their records to be right.
Companies with data of their own
That are ready to turn it into something buyers will pay for.

How we work

1

Write down what you need

Which companies or people, which details, which countries, how much of your list has to be covered, and how often it has to refresh.

2

Shortlist and test

We test providers on your list instead of their sample. How many records match, how many fields are filled in, and how much two providers overlap.

3

Sort out the contract

What you can do with the data, whether you can show it to your own customers, how the price moves as you grow, and what happens if coverage falls short.

4

Deliver it and keep it healthy

Files, cloud storage, a data share or a live connection. Then matching records, tracking where every field came from, and watching the provider side.

We have done this before.

At RingLead, the team pioneered waterfall enrichment, sending each record through several data providers in turn to find the best match. ZoomInfo acquired RingLead in 2021.

SpringDB grew out of a pattern we kept seeing. Strong teams were losing months to data problems that had nothing to do with their real work: vendor negotiations that dragged on, data that covered existing customers but missed the ones they wanted, and the same records bought twice from two providers. We fixed those problems one client at a time, and SpringDB came out of that work so the next company would not have to start from scratch.
