Build your dream workflow with Databar today.

We spent a lot of the last few months on the unglamorous work: making Databar fast and dependable under real load. Here's what that adds up to.

Waterfalls, upgraded across the board

🔑 Bring your own keys

Every provider step in a waterfall can now run on your own API key instead of Databar credits. Use your existing contracts and rates where you have them, and ours where you don't.

🌊 New waterfalls and new sources

A brand-new Company-URL finder waterfall, plus new providers throughout: Prospeo, Limadata, and Pubrio for phone numbers; LeadMagic, Pubrio, and Forager for email lookups; CompanyEnrich, Pubrio, and LeadMagic for company data.

🚀 A faster engine

We removed a set of bottlenecks in how waterfalls execute, so every provider step returns its answer sooner and the whole chain finishes faster.

📦 More data back

Reverse-email lookups now return more fields, and the whole waterfall UI got a cleanup: clearer provider rows, credit pills, and verifier layout.

A smoother experience across the board

🚄 Big runs, stable tables

Kick off a 200,000-row enrichment and it just runs: steady, predictable, and without slowing anything down. We removed a long list of bottlenecks across the system and migrated our infrastructure, so everything runs fast even under heavy load.

💻 Smooth on any machine

We rewrote how tables render, so scrolling large tables stays smooth even on older, slower laptops. We actually fired up our laptops from 2015 to check, and Databar runs great. You don't need the latest machine: no jank, no freeze, no fan spin-up.

🛠️ Fewer babysitting moments

Transient errors now retry automatically, rate-limited requests back off and recover on their own, and bulk inserts got leaner so big imports finish faster.

Other updates

  • Ongoing security and access-control hardening across the platform.

  • A batch of reliability and error-handling fixes across large tables and long-running jobs.
