Star Metro - Clearout Expands Into a Trusted Data Qualification Layer for Modern GTM Teams

NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 23, 2026 / Clearout, a real-time data quality platform for marketing, sales and revenue teams, today announced the expansion of its platform with Data Pulse and advanced capabilities for Form Guard, including Form Analytics, Form Forensics and Lost Lead Recovery for abandoned forms.

The releases mark a broader evolution in Clearout's approach to data quality → from validating data after it has been collected to continuously qualifying contact data as it moves through the Go-to-Market stack.

For years, businesses have relied on periodic database cleaning to identify invalid emails, unreachable phone numbers and low-quality contact information. But as CRM workflows, enrichment systems, marketing automation and AI become increasingly automated, bad data can begin affecting campaigns, routing, reporting and sales activity almost immediately.

Clearout is addressing that problem by creating a trusted data qualification layer between lead capture and the systems that act on customer data.

Rather than asking teams to identify bad records after they have entered their databases, Clearout helps determine whether contact information is valid, reachable and usable at critical points in the customer-data lifecycle.

Data Pulse | Brings Continuous Data Qualification Into the CRM

Data Pulse extends Clearout's data-quality infrastructure directly into CRM workflows. When contacts enter the CRM-from forms, imports, integrations or other sources-Data Pulse automatically evaluates key contact fields, including email address, phone number and name. Currently, 6K+ CRM accounts are continuously monitored and qualified through Data Pulse.

The resulting validation and enrichment information is synchronized back to the contact record, allowing teams to identify usable and problematic data without relying on recurring exports, spreadsheets or middleware-based verification workflows.

Instead of waiting for the next database-cleaning cycle, organizations can evaluate data quality as contacts arrive. This creates a continuous qualification layer inside the CRM, helping marketing, sales and RevOps teams work with more reliable contact data before it enters campaigns, lead-routing workflows, enrichment processes and sales sequences.

Form Guard | Evolves From Form Validation to Form Intelligence

Clearout has also significantly expanded Form Guard, its real-time form validation technology. Currently, 200K+ forms are protected by Form Guard. Form Guard was originally built to prevent invalid emails, phone numbers, gibberish names, fake submissions and other low-quality information from entering business systems. Its latest capabilities extend visibility beyond the final form submission.

• Form Analytics → Marketing and growth teams can analyze validation activity across forms and landing pages, including allowed and blocked submissions, validation trends and page-level data-quality patterns. This helps teams identify where low-quality traffic is originating and understand how lead quality differs across campaigns and pages.
• Form Forensics → Form Forensics provides deeper visibility into individual form interactions. Teams can investigate submission verdicts, validation reasons, timestamps, page URLs and field-level information, then filter and export the data for further analysis. Instead of simply knowing that a submission was blocked, teams can understand what was blocked, where it happened and why.
• Lost Lead Recovery → This addresses another common blind spot in lead-generation funnels: visitors who begin completing a form but leave before submitting it.

Where enabled, Form Guard can surface verified contact information entered during abandoned form sessions, helping businesses identify potential leads that may otherwise have disappeared from the funnel and determine appropriate follow-up actions in accordance with their policies and applicable requirements.

These capabilities build on Form Guard's core real-time validation functionality, which evaluates email, phone and name information before invalid data reaches downstream marketing and CRM systems. Form Guard can be added through a JavaScript snippet and works with existing web forms without requiring businesses to rebuild their form infrastructure.

Deep Verify | Making Catch-All Emails More Actionable

Clearout has also introduced Deep Verify for catch-all emails, addressing one of the biggest grey areas in email verification. Instead of stopping at a generic Catch-All as risky classification, Deep Verify applies deeper qualification to provide a clearer Safe-to-Send signal, helping teams determine which catch-all contacts can be considered for outreach and which should remain high-risk. This allows businesses to retain potentially valuable B2B contacts while making more informed sending decisions and protecting deliverability.

From Database Cleaning to Continuous Data Qualification

Together, Data Pulse and Form Guard allow Clearout to address data quality at two critical points.

• Form Guard qualifies data at the point of capture. It helps determine whether information being entered is legitimate and usable, identifies problematic submissions and provides visibility into potential leads that abandon the process.
• Data Pulse qualifies data at the point of CRM entry. It monitors contacts arriving from multiple sources and validates key contact information before downstream systems begin relying on it.

Clearout's broader platform then extends these capabilities through email verification, phone validation, Email Finder, APIs, CRM integrations, prospecting and bulk data-quality workflows.

The result is a data-quality infrastructure designed to support contact data throughout its lifecycle rather than relying exclusively on periodic database cleanup.

"Most GTM teams have invested heavily in generating, enriching and activating data. But there is still a fundamental question underneath all of those systems: Can this data actually be trusted and acted on?" said Nida Mohsin, SVP - Marketing at Clearout."

"That is the layer we are building. Form Guard helps us understand and qualify what happens before a lead enters the system. Data Pulse continues that qualification once contacts reach the CRM. Together, they give marketing, sales and RevOps teams much better control over the quality of data powering their GTM engine."

As businesses introduce more AI, enrichment and automated GTM workflows, Clearout believes continuous data qualification will become increasingly important. A CRM can contain more information than ever before, but additional data provides limited value when the underlying contact cannot be reached or trusted.

With its latest releases, Clearout is positioning data quality not as a periodic cleanup exercise, but as an always-on layer running between data capture and data activation.

Also from Clearout: Advancing Phone Qualification

As part of its broader real-time data-quality innovation, Clearout is also advancing ClearoutPhone, its dedicated phone intelligence platform, from phone number validation toward deeper phone qualification. The expanded intelligence combines reachability, carrier and line-type signals, communication-channel availability, quality and risk indicators, and recommended outreach actions to help GTM teams better determine whether and how a phone contact should be engaged.

While Clearout focuses on trusted contact data across email, forms and CRM workflows, ClearoutPhone extends the same qualification approach to phone intelligence.
