Summary and recommendation
Clearbit, now operating as Breeze Intelligence under HubSpot, does not support SCIM provisioning. The platform only offers SAML 2.0 SSO with just-in-time (JIT) provisioning, which creates users automatically upon first login but provides no ongoing lifecycle management. This creates a significant gap for IT teams managing a B2B data enrichment platform where user access directly impacts data costs and compliance—especially problematic given that Breeze Intelligence credits expire monthly with no rollover and require a HubSpot subscription starting at $75/month minimum.
The JIT-only approach means IT administrators have no automated way to deprovision users when they leave, modify roles when responsibilities change, or bulk-manage access across marketing ops, sales ops, and RevOps teams. Given that data enrichment operations can scale to enterprise volumes costing $12,000-$100,000+ annually, the inability to programmatically control access represents both a security risk and potential budget exposure. Manual user management becomes especially problematic when teams need different permission levels for accessing enrichment APIs and managing data quality workflows.
The strategic alternative
Clearbit has no native SCIM. Automate offboarding, user access reviews, and license workflows across every app, including the ones without APIs. We maintain the integration layer underneath. You focus on judgment, not plumbing.

The cost of not automating
Without SCIM (or an alternative like Stitchflow), your IT team manages Clearbit accounts manually. Here's what that costs:
The Clearbit pricing problem
Clearbit gates SCIM provisioning behind premium plans, forcing significant cost increases for basic user management.
Tier comparison
| Plan | Price | SSO | SCIM |
|---|---|---|---|
| Breeze Intelligence | $45-50/month + HubSpot subscription required | ||
| Minimum viable setup | $75/month ($30 HubSpot Starter + $45 Breeze) | ||
| Enterprise volume | $12,000-100,000+/year based on usage |
Pricing structure
| Plan | Pricing | SCIM | SSO |
|---|---|---|---|
| Breeze Intelligence | $45-50/month + HubSpot subscription required | ❌ Not available | ✓ SAML only |
| Minimum viable setup | $75/month ($30 HubSpot Starter + $45 Breeze) | ❌ Not available | ✓ SAML only |
| Enterprise volume | $12,000-100,000+/year based on usage | ❌ Not available | ✓ SAML only |
Additional costs
What this means in practice
Without SCIM provisioning, IT teams must rely on SAML JIT provisioning, which creates accounts automatically when users first log in. However, this approach has significant limitations:
Additional constraints
Summary of challenges
- Clearbit does not provide native SCIM at any price tier
- Organizations must rely on third-party tools or manual provisioning
- Our research shows teams manually provisioning this app spend significant hidden costs annually
What Clearbit actually offers for identity
SAML SSO (Base offering)
Clearbit (now Breeze Intelligence under HubSpot) supports SAML 2.0 authentication with just-in-time (JIT) provisioning:
| Setting | Details |
|---|---|
| Protocol | SAML 2.0 |
| Supported IdPs | Okta, Azure AD, Google Workspace, JumpCloud |
| JIT provisioning | ✓ Yes - creates users on first login |
| Configuration | Domain-based SAML enforcement |
| User management | No ongoing sync - JIT only |
Critical limitation: JIT provisioning only creates users on their first login attempt. There's no ongoing synchronization of user attributes, group memberships, or automated deprovisioning when users are removed from your IdP.
Okta Integration (via OIN)
The official Okta Integration Network listing for Clearbit shows:
| Feature | Supported? |
|---|---|
| SAML SSO | ✓ Yes |
| SCIM provisioning | ❌ No |
| Create users | ❌ No (JIT only) |
| Update users | ❌ No |
| Deactivate users | ❌ No |
| Group push | ❌ No |
The HubSpot dependency problem
Since Clearbit is now Breeze Intelligence under HubSpot, identity management becomes more complex:
For teams that just need data enrichment with proper user lifecycle management, you're paying for an entire CRM platform you may not need, with identity features designed around HubSpot's broader user base rather than standalone data enrichment workflows.
What IT admins are saying
Community sentiment on Clearbit's provisioning reflects frustration with the HubSpot acquisition and limited automation options:
- Manual user management required - JIT provisioning via SAML only
- HubSpot dependency creates vendor lock-in concerns
- Credits expire monthly with no rollover, complicating budget planning
- Limited provisioning documentation makes setup unclear
SAML enforced by email domain
Now part of HubSpot as Breeze Intelligence
Free tools discontinued
The recurring theme
IT teams lost familiar Clearbit tools in the HubSpot transition and now face a more complex provisioning setup that requires HubSpot subscriptions. The shift from standalone data enrichment to HubSpot add-on creates dependency issues that many IT departments didn't sign up for.
The decision
| Your Situation | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Small marketing team (<10 users) using HubSpot | Manual management acceptable - leverage JIT provisioning via SAML |
| Data enrichment team with frequent user changes | Use Stitchflow: automation essential for rapid onboarding |
| Multi-CRM environment needing Clearbit data | Use Stitchflow: bypasses HubSpot dependency limitations |
| Enterprise with compliance requirements | Use Stitchflow: automation essential for audit trail and access controls |
| RevOps team managing credit allocation across departments | Use Stitchflow: automated provisioning prevents credit waste from orphaned accounts |
The bottom line
Clearbit (now Breeze Intelligence) offers powerful B2B data enrichment but lacks SCIM provisioning and requires a HubSpot subscription. With only JIT provisioning via SAML and credits that expire monthly, manual user management creates real cost and compliance risks. For teams that need proper provisioning automation without the HubSpot dependency overhead, Stitchflow is the cleaner solution.
