Company-Level Identification

Updated over a week ago

Company-Level Identification

In addition to identifying individuals, RB2B provides company-level identification through its partnership with Demandbase. This allows businesses to recognize and engage organizations showing interest in their website, even when person-level details are not available.

Company-level visitors can be viewed in the dashboard at:

What Is Company-Level Identification?

Company-level identification occurs when RB2B can determine the organization a visitor belongs to, even if it cannot identify the specific person. In these cases, RB2B captures and delivers company-related information such as:

  • Company name

  • Company website URL

  • Industry classification

  • Number of employees

  • Revenue

This helps teams understand which organizations are engaging with their site and prioritize outreach based on real buying intent.

How Company-Level Identification Works

RB2B’s company-level identification follows a privacy-conscious, data-driven process:

  • Activation and Screening
    When a visitor arrives on your site, the RB2B tracking script activates and evaluates the visit. Company-level identification is now attempted for all traffic by default, including international visitors.

  • Data Correlation
    RB2B analyzes network-level signals and device intelligence, correlating them against known corporate domains and business networks.

  • Company Match
    Even when an individual cannot be identified, RB2B can often determine the visitor’s company using robust network mapping and business datasets.

  • Data Delivery
    Matched company information is securely delivered to your dashboard and integrations, giving you visibility into organizations researching your product.

This process ensures consistent insight while respecting applicable privacy standards.

Company-Level Identification Is Now Always On

Historically, RB2B offered a setting that allowed customers to enable or disable international company-level tracking. As part of recent plan and billing updates, that setting has been removed.

Company-level identification, including global traffic, is now enabled by default for all accounts and is considered part of RB2B’s core service.

There is no longer a separate toggle to enable or disable international company-level tracking.

Important Notes About Company-Level Identification

  • Company-level identification is available across all plans, including Free.

  • Company-level identification does not consume credits.

  • Identified companies may include visitors from outside the United States.

  • Person-level identification remains restricted to U.S.-based visitors only.

If person-level credits are fully depleted on a paid plan, company-level identification will also pause, as the tracking script relies on active credits to function.

Benefits of Company-Level Identification

Company-level identification enables several core use cases:

  • Broader Awareness
    See which companies are engaging with your site, even when individuals remain anonymous.

  • Account-Based Marketing (ABM)
    Identify target accounts already showing intent and tailor campaigns accordingly.

  • Sales Enablement
    Give sales teams early visibility into organizations researching your product.

  • Pipeline Expansion
    Surface new opportunities from companies that have not yet converted.

  • Global Insight
    Understand interest from international companies by default, without additional configuration.

  • Metric Clarity
    Company-level and person-level metrics are distinct. A single company may include multiple individual visits.

Company-Level Identification Rates

When combined with person-level identification, RB2B users typically achieve total identification rates of approximately 70–80% of U.S.-based traffic on average:

  • 40–45% person-level identification

  • An additional 30–35% company-level identification

These combined insights provide a strong foundation for real-time lead generation and sales prioritization.

Interpreting Visitor Metrics

RB2B reports visitor data in two distinct ways:

  • Company-Level Metrics: Unique companies identified, aggregating both person- and company-level visits.

  • Person-Level Metrics: Individual visitors identified at the contact level.

Tip: Do not sum company-level and person-level metrics together, as this can result in double counting. Use each metric in its respective context.

Integrations and Company-Level Profiles

By default, company-level identification is enabled across RB2B. However, you can control whether company-only profiles are sent to specific integrations such as HubSpot, Salesforce, Slack, and others. This can be managed within each integration’s settings using the “Send company-only profiles” toggle.

Global Company-Level Identification

Company-level identification now operates globally by default across all accounts. This includes visitors from outside the United States and applies uniformly across regions, including the European Union.

RB2B’s company-level tracking is designed to align with GDPR principles and similar privacy frameworks. While company-level identification may occur globally, person-level identification is never performed outside the United States.

Consent and Compliance Considerations

RB2B does not enforce consent on your behalf. You are responsible for ensuring that your website complies with applicable privacy and consent regulations in the regions where you operate.

This includes:

  • Using a consent management tool where required

  • Configuring consent rules appropriately

  • Updating your privacy policy to reflect company-level tracking

Global company-level identification is now part of RB2B’s baseline functionality, and compliance remains the responsibility of the account holder.
