Frequently asked questions

Ceven implements an intelligent queuing system to respect Crustdata API limits. Because deep enrichment and timeseries pulls can be resource intensive, the agent batches requests and uses exponential backoff when it hits a rate limit. If you are running a massive bulk enrichment on thousands of leads, Ceven will process these in the background and notify you once the full dataset is available in your CRM. This ensures your API key is not throttled and your workflows continue to run without failing. You can check the current status of any large data pull in the activity log.
Yes. You can set up a workflow where Ceven polls the web traffic data endpoint for a list of target accounts. When the agent detects a traffic increase above a certain percentage, it can trigger a sequence of actions. For example, it can search for the current marketing head using the decision maker filter, enrich their contact details, and then add them to a specific email campaign in your sales tool. This turns a passive data point into a real time sales trigger without any manual intervention.
The data is as current as the latest Crustdata crawl. While it is designed for high frequency updates, there can be a slight lag depending on the source platform. Ceven helps by using the timeseries endpoints to look for trends rather than single point changes. By analyzing the slope of headcount growth over three months instead of just the latest number, the agent can more accurately identify companies in a true scaling phase versus those with minor fluctuations in staff.
When the person screener returns no results, Ceven can be configured to follow a fallback logic. Instead of simply stopping the workflow, the agent can attempt to search for the company generally, identify the most likely decision maker in the relevant department, and then try to enrich that person instead. This ensures that your lead lists remain full even when a specific individual is not indexed. You can define these fallback rules in the workflow editor to maintain a high conversion rate.
Ceven can act as the listener for Crustdata webhooks. When Crustdata pushes a signal such as a new funding round or a key hire, Ceven receives the payload and immediately kicks off the associated workflow. This is significantly more efficient than polling the API for changes. For instance, a funding webhook can trigger an immediate alert in Slack and a personalized congratulatory email to the founder, ensuring your team is the first to reach out after a major announcement.
One specific quirk of the platform is that very small companies or those in highly private industries may have limited data in the screener. Because the intelligence is gathered from public and semi public signals, stealth startups may not appear until they have a detectable web presence or LinkedIn footprint. Ceven manages this by flagging low confidence scores in the enrichment step, allowing you to manually review those specific leads or skip them to maintain the quality of your automated outreach.
Ceven uses the investor portfolio endpoint to create a dynamic watch list. You can tell the agent to monitor every company in a specific VC portfolio. The agent then runs a daily check on headcount and web traffic for every company in that set. If any company shows a spike in growth or a change in leadership, the agent flags it as a high priority lead. This allows investment teams to keep a pulse on their entire portfolio without having to check each company individually.
Yes, the decision maker filter allows for very granular targeting. You can specify exact titles or use keywords to find anyone in a specific function. Ceven can use this to build highly segmented lists. For example, you can ask the agent to find every Head of Growth at Series A companies with more than fifty employees who have seen a traffic increase. The agent handles the complex API query construction and returns a clean list of contacts ready for your sales team.
