# How we source contact data

Starbridge has the highest quality public sector & school contact data.

* Our AI agent pulls contacts right from the agency or schools website that scrapes the directory and all of the school + government website pages. It also looks for any mentions of these individuals in any external documents.
* Every contact is then enriched with information from Starbridge's waterfall of different providers. For example, if the email is not available on the website, we run a waterfall to find the email across our providers.
* For every contact we run a bounce-check to make sure that individual is currently in seat and active. We do this continually to ensure our information is kept up to date.
* You then have the option to sync every single one of these and keep them up-to-date in your CRM throughout the year + maintain an active vs. inactive flag in your CRM.
* For each contact in our database - we frequently run web lookups, bounce-checks and new waterfall enrichment so your CRM is up to date.

This is how we're able to ensure that we're providing you the highest quality government & education contact data. Reach out for a sample if you are curious!
