How many business contacts are in the GSDSI B2B file?

The file includes 486M+ business contacts worldwide, of which 200M are in the US, with coverage spanning 150+ countries. Each contact is resolved to a single record with verified firmographics and, where available, technographic and intent signals. Coverage rates vary by attribute and region, and we can share field-level fill rates for your target segment before you license.

What attributes come with each contact?

Standard fields include full name, job title with seniority and department, company name, business email, direct and company phone where permitted, and company domain and LinkedIn profile. Records also carry firmographics such as industry and NAICS, employee count, revenue band, and headquarters and location footprint, plus technographics and intent signals where the data exists. You can select only the attributes your use case needs.

How is the data kept compliant and current?

GSDSI processes business-contact data on documented legal bases, honors opt-out and deletion requests, and applies GDPR and CCPA or CPRA handling to the records those laws govern. The universe refreshes on a recurring cadence, and contacts that opt out or fail validation are suppressed on the next cycle. Sensitive categories are excluded from the standard file.

How is the B2B data delivered?

Delivery is available as CSV, JSON, or Parquet via S3 or SFTP, and through API for enrichment and real-time lookups. We support one-time files, recurring feeds, and match-and-append against your existing records. Licensing scopes permitted use, retention, and channel to your specific program.

How the B2B File Is Sourced and Built

GSDSI assembles the B2B universe from licensed publisher and partner feeds, public business registries, self-reported professional profiles, and permissioned first-party contributions, then resolves them into a single record per professional. Contacts are verified against multiple corroborating sources, and business emails are validated for deliverability where the signal exists. Firmographic attributes are standardized to consistent industry, NAICS, size, and revenue-band taxonomies so that filters behave the same across every country. Technographic and intent layers are appended from web and usage signals where available, and each attribute carries its own coverage rate rather than being presented as universal. Records refresh on a recurring cadence, and contacts that opt out or that fail validation are suppressed on the next cycle.

Common Applications by Buyer Type

Marketing teams use the file to build account-based marketing audiences, model lookalikes against a best-customer seed, and onboard segments for multichannel activation. Sales and revenue operations enrich a CRM or CDP, fill missing titles and direct phone numbers, and score territories for coverage and whitespace. Strategy and finance teams use firmographics to size a total addressable market and plan headcount against real account density in 150+ countries. Data and analytics teams license raw attributes to power internal propensity models, deduplication, and identity resolution. Across all of these, the value is breadth plus consistent taxonomy, so a segment built in one region behaves the same in another.

Compliance and Permitted Use

This is marketing and analytics data and is strictly non-FCRA: it must never be used for credit, employment, insurance underwriting eligibility, or tenant screening. GSDSI processes business-contact data on documented legal bases, honors opt-out and deletion requests, and applies GDPR and CCPA or CPRA handling to the records those laws govern. Sensitive categories are excluded from the standard file, and licensing scopes permitted use, retention, and channel so that outreach stays within applicable marketing and anti-spam rules. Buyers receive delivery documentation that describes coverage and provenance without exposing upstream supplier identities. GSDSI can support suppression against your own opt-out lists on request.

How buyers diligence B2B contact data

Enterprise buyers judge a B2B file on accuracy and freshness, not headline counts. They test match and fill rates against their own records, confirm the legal basis and opt-out handling behind the data, and scope permitted use before signing. A short paid sample or match test usually settles it.

Request a match-and-append test against a known seed list and measure email deliverability, phone connect rate, and attribute fill by segment.
Confirm the legal bases for business-contact processing and that opt-out and deletion are honored, with GDPR and CCPA or CPRA handling for the relevant records.
Verify the refresh cadence and how opted-out or invalid contacts are suppressed between cycles.
Get written confirmation that the data is non-FCRA and that permitted use, retention, and channel are defined in the license.
