Resolution Types Explained: Basic vs. Premium Visitor Identification

Updated this week

Basic vs. Premium visitor identification

RB2B offers two levels of visitor resolution: Basic and Premium.

Both identify anonymous website visitors and turn them into usable profiles. The difference is coverage, match rate, and global reach.

If you mainly care about US traffic, Basic is often enough. If you want maximum identification or operate internationally, Premium will resolve more visitors.

What is Basic Resolution?

Basic uses RB2B’s internal identification graph to match visitors.

It is optimized for:

  • US-based traffic

  • Common business networks

  • Standard B2B buying activity

You will still identify international visitors, but coverage is lighter compared to Premium.

Good fit if:

  • Most of your traffic is from the US

  • You want strong results at a lower price

  • You’re just getting started with visitor identification

  • You don’t need every possible match

Plans with Basic:

  • Starter

  • Pro

What is Premium Resolution?

Premium includes everything in Basic plus a waterfall of trusted external identification graphs.

This expands coverage and improves:

  • Total matches

  • International resolution

  • Harder-to-identify visitors (remote workers, mobile, shared networks, etc.)

Think of it as casting a wider net using multiple data sources instead of just one.

Good fit if:

  • You want the highest possible match rate

  • You run outbound or sales-led motions

  • You depend on every identified visitor

  • You have meaningful non-US traffic

  • You care about maximizing ROI per visit

Plans with Premium:

  • Pro+

  • 7-day free trial

Additional sources

Each layer increases the chance of finding a match. If one source can’t identify a visitor, the next one tries.

This is why Premium consistently produces higher coverage.

How to choose

Choose Basic if:

  • 80 to 90% of your traffic is US-based

  • You want cost efficiency

  • You’re early-stage or experimenting

Choose Premium if:

  • You have international traffic

  • You rely on outbound sales or ABM

  • You want the highest number of resolved visitors

  • Missing even a few good prospects matters

  • A simple rule:
    If you care about “pretty good,” Basic works.
    If you care about “as many as possible,” use Premium.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Premium change data quality?

No. Both use the same accuracy standards. Premium simply increases coverage.

Will I lose anything by using Basic?
