Apollo.io Introduces Waterfall Enrichment in Automated Workflows
Apollo.io launched Waterfall Enrichment, enabling sales teams to automatically query secondary third-party data providers whenever contact information is missing in Apollo's native database. This capability automates multi-vendor data retrieval within custom Apollo Workflows to boost direct-dial and email match rates.

Reduces manual list handling and external API integration overhead, allowing GTM teams to maximize lead coverage and reach higher contact match rates directly within a single platform.
Full Fact Overview
Apollo.io has updated its Workflow engine to support Waterfall Enrichment. Previously, when Apollo's database lacked a verified work email or direct-dial phone number for a lead, RevOps teams were required to manually export CSV lists and upload them into third-party tools or maintain separate API integrations. With Waterfall Enrichment, admins can define conditional fallback logic directly inside Apollo Workflows. If an initial query to Apollo's 275M+ contact database yields a null or unverified result for a targeted field, the system automatically triggers sequential calls to secondary vendor APIs, normalizes incoming contact schemas, and consolidates the enriched profile before pushing data downstream into Salesforce or HubSpot.
