Bottom line
Crossbeam is the ecosystem revenue platform: it syncs CRM, data-warehouse and spreadsheet data with partner companies to surface account overlaps, shared opportunities and warm introduction paths. Teams start free, move to Connector at $4,800 a year, and push ecosystem signals into Salesforce, HubSpot, Slack and AI assistants through Crossbeam Copilot and a native MCP server. Buyers get SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 assurance; value depends on partners joining the Crossbeam Network.
Frequently asked questions
How much does Crossbeam cost?
There is a free tier with up to 3 full-access seats and 50 Crossbeam Credits per year. Connector is $4,800 per year including one seat, with extra seats at $1,800 per user per year. Supernode and Enterprise are custom-priced annual contracts; those tiers can also buy Sales seats at $40 per user per month and additional AI credit packs.
How quickly can we get value from Crossbeam?
The free plan is self-serve and syncs from Salesforce, HubSpot, Snowflake, Pipedrive, Google Sheets or CSV, so first account maps can appear within days. The main lag is partner-side: each partner must connect and share its own CRM data before overlaps show up, and Supernode/Enterprise onboarding is white-glove.
Does Crossbeam work with AI assistants and agents?
Yes. Crossbeam ships a native MCP server plus native connectors for Claude, ChatGPT and Glean, so AI tools can query partner overlaps, ecosystem signals and partner-shared contacts. MCP is read-only, currently early access for Supernode and Enterprise plans, and every request consumes Crossbeam Credits.
Is Crossbeam secure and compliant?
Crossbeam publishes a SOC 2 Type II report (available to enterprise customers under NDA), states GDPR and CCPA compliance with a DPA and EU standard contractual clauses, and its trust center lists ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 27701. It does not claim HIPAA or FedRAMP.
Do our partners need to be Crossbeam customers?
No. Crossbeam supports offline partners and the Account Mapping Pass gives Free-plan partners full mapping visibility with Supernode and Enterprise customers. Partners already on the Crossbeam Network, however, deliver fresher and richer ecosystem data with less manual sharing.
