Inbound lead enriched and routed before the SDR logs in

When a demo request lands, the agent validates the submitted email, enriches the company name with the official KvK profile, appends SBI code, employee band, and revenue bracket to the HubSpot lead record, and posts a pre-qualified summary to the #inbound-leads Slack channel — the SDR picks up a fully-enriched lead, not a blank form.

FAQs

Questions about Bedrijfsdata + Actionist

How does Actionist connect to Bedrijfsdata?
Go to the Apps tab, find Bedrijfsdata, and click Connect. You will need a Bedrijfsdata API key — available from your account dashboard at bedrijfsdata.nl. Paste the key into the API key field and click Test connection. Actionist runs a read-only call to the /companies endpoint to confirm the handshake before any agent actions run. The API key is encrypted and stored securely; it is never exposed to your agents in plain text.
What is Bedrijfsdata and what does it cover?
Bedrijfsdata.nl is a Dutch commercial data platform built on top of the KvK (Kamer van Koophandel) commercial register. It provides verified company profiles including legal entity type, SBI sector codes, registered address, employee band, and financials — plus enrichment for domains and names, related-entity lookups (corporate family, shared address), employee and vacancy data, a full Dutch validation suite (KvK, IBAN, VAT, BIC, phone, postcode, geocoding), EU Tender access, and a Live Web RAG service for grounding LLM calls in current web content. Coverage is focused on Dutch-registered entities, with validation tools that handle global formats (phone, IBAN, geocoding) as well.
Can agents enrich HubSpot, Salesforce, or other CRM records automatically?
Yes. The most common pattern is: a new account or lead is created in your CRM, the agent calls Enrich Company Data with the company name or domain, and writes SBI code, employee band, revenue bracket, and registered address back to the CRM record — all without any human step. The agent can also trigger on inbound form submissions, CSV imports, or scheduled sweeps of records missing key fields. Any CRM that Actionist supports can receive the enriched data.
How fast do validations run — are they within about a minute?
Validation calls (KvK, IBAN, VAT, email, phone, postcode, and so on) are API calls to the Bedrijfsdata service and typically complete in under two seconds each. If an agent is processing a batch — for example, validating 200 supplier IBANs before a payment run — the total time depends on the batch size and any rate limits on your Bedrijfsdata plan, but individual validations resolve within about a minute of the agent task firing.
What validation checks are available and which are most useful for finance teams?
Bedrijfsdata offers ten validation endpoints accessible through Actionist: KvK number, IBAN, Dutch VAT (BTW-nummer), BIC, email address, city, geocoding, LEI number, phone number, postcode, and URL. For finance teams the most-used combination is KvK + IBAN + VAT — together they verify that a supplier or customer is a registered Dutch trading entity, that their bank details are structurally valid, and that their tax number is currently active. Running all three before releasing a payment or entering a vendor into the ledger is the standard fraud-prevention pattern.
Can agents use Bedrijfsdata to find and qualify prospects — and will it work for Dutch-only companies?
Yes. Get Many Companies supports filtering by SBI code, city, employee band, revenue bracket, technology stack, and domain range — you can build a query that mirrors your ideal customer profile exactly. The results are Dutch-registered companies from the KvK register, so this is specifically suited to prospecting within the Netherlands. For international prospecting within the same workflow, combine Bedrijfsdata with your other connected CRM or data enrichment apps to cover non-Dutch markets.
How does the Live Web RAG feature work and why is it useful for AI agents?
Live Web RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) lets an agent fetch current content from a specific URL, a whole domain, or a search engine query before generating a response. Without RAG, the LLM answers from training data that may be months old. With RAG, the agent retrieves what the target website actually says today — a competitor's current pricing page, a prospect's latest press release, or fresh regulatory guidance — and uses that as the source for summaries, briefings, or outreach copy. This makes agent outputs significantly more accurate and relevant for sales, marketing, and legal research tasks.
Does Actionist support scheduled batch runs, or does Bedrijfsdata only work on demand?
Both patterns work. Agents can run Bedrijfsdata calls on demand — triggered by a CRM event, a form submission, or a Slack command — or on a recurring schedule (requires a cloud runtime plan). Scheduled runs are the preferred approach for weekly prospect list refreshes, Monday morning validation sweeps, and EU tender digests, because the data is ready before the team starts work rather than waiting for someone to trigger it manually.
