Waterglass

Regulated sales teams can receive a contact record enriched across several providers without knowing which source supplied each field or whether a particular outreach channel is permitted. Waterglass preserves field-level provenance, collection date, provider terms, confidence and a separate permission-evidence record, then evaluates an organization-approved outreach policy. The supplied research confirms a low-cost waterfall-enrichment competitor focused on coverage and no comparable per-record lawful-basis stamp. Enrichment is already commoditized; the hypothesis is a defensibility workflow. The premise must be corrected: no vendor-created stamp can prove lawful basis or compliance. Consent can be channel-, purpose-, party-, number- and time-specific; it may be revoked, while other lawful bases and sector rules differ. A record can be accurate yet unusable, and a policy can be configured incorrectly. The cited retention rule and current regulatory duties require primary-authority and counsel validation before productization. Source field, inferred field, identity match, consent artifact, revocation, suppression check, policy result, compliance review, outreach authorization, provider acknowledgement, delivery and recipient outcome remain separate. Success is fewer source-less records and fewer attempts that conflict with current approved policy—not guaranteed deliverability, consent or lawful outreach.
