FAQ: Real-time lead scoring
How many API calls does lead scoring incur?
Each lead, whether net-new or existing incurs one API call. These scores update daily, but still only incur one API call.
Is it really real-time?
Yes. As long as you have the Predictive add-on and its models are set up, 6sense immediately fetches the latest Predictive score as leads are newly created.
When do Predictive scores update?
Predictive scores update daily as part of the 6sense data pipeline, which aggregates all the information across the B2B network to update the lead’s scores.
