Act on LinkedIn — not just query it.
You looked at Crustdata for the rich firmographic/funding bundle, but your real job is building a product feature users touch: enrich a lead, trigger a signal, send a connection, pull a Sales Nav list.
| Topic | Edges | Crustdata |
|---|---|---|
| Product shape | Action API: do things on LinkedIn (search, export, enrich, engage, monitor). | Intelligence API: query a pre-aggregated graph of people and companies. |
| LinkedIn depth | First-class Sales Navigator, engagement actions, and live intent signals. | LinkedIn-linked person/company data via their firmographic bundle. |
| Non-LinkedIn data | Scoped to LinkedIn by design. | Funding, headcount trends, job postings, and other firmographics. |
| Best for | Sales tools, prospecting platforms, outbound automation, LinkedIn-first AI agents. | Analytics platforms, investment research, market intelligence dashboards. |
| Pricing shape | Per-action credits — scale cost with user activity. | Typically seat or dataset-licensed — scale cost with coverage and users. |
Your product executes on LinkedIn. You need actions (Sales Nav searches, lead list exports, engagement, monitoring signals) — not just queryable intelligence.
You're building analytics or research tooling that needs rich firmographic bundles — funding rounds, headcount trends, company filings — and LinkedIn is one data source among many.
Map your current HTTP calls or automations to Edges actions using the Library and documentation. If you share your integration outline with support, we can suggest parity endpoints and credit estimates.
