Workspace Enrichment: Lusha Data vs. AI Data Columns

How to add Lusha data, AI data, signal, and CRM columns to a saved Workspace table, and when to run each column type.

Written by Shir Zuriel

Once you've saved a Workspace table, you can deepen your understanding of each contact or company by adding data columns. Lusha offers four types of columns: Lusha database data, AI-powered enrichment, real-time signals, and CRM fields. This article explains each type, how to add them, and what to expect.

How to add a column

  1. Open any saved Workspace table

  2. Click Add enrichment in the table toolbar

  3. The column library opens with four tabs: Lusha Data, AI Data, Signals, and CRM

  4. Click the tab for the type of data you want

  5. Click any column name to add it to your table

  6. For Lusha Data columns, data populates immediately from the database. For AI Data, Signals, and CRM columns, the column appears empty — click Run column to fill it with live data

You can also click the + icon directly next to any existing column header to add a new column in that position.

Tab 1: Lusha Data

These columns pull from Lusha's verified B2B database and populate instantly without consuming enrichment credits. They include standard contact and company fields:

Contact fields: Name, job title, seniority, department, work email, mobile, phone, direct phone, LinkedIn URL

Company fields: Company name, website, industry, sub-industry, company size (headcount), revenue range, founding year, headquarters location, country

Use these columns to complete any fields missing from your initial search results.

Tab 2: Signals

Signals add real-time behavioral intelligence to your table based on what companies and contacts are actively doing. Unlike AI Data (which describes what a company is), Signals track what a company is currently doing — making them ideal for timing your outreach.

Cost: 1 credit is charged per successful signal detected (for either a contact or a company). If no signal is found, the cell remains empty, and no credits are deducted.

Please note that signals are table-specific. If the same contact is saved in two different tables and you run a signal search in both, you will be charged twice.

Tab 3: CRM

CRM columns let you pull live field values from your connected Salesforce account directly into your table. You can add fields from Contact, Lead, or Account objects.

Cost: Free — CRM columns do not consume credits

After adding a CRM column, click Run column to fill it with live data from Salesforce. Use CRM columns to see things like "Last Activity Date," "Deal Stage," or "Owner" alongside your Lusha prospecting data in the same view.

Running columns

After adding a Lusha Data, Signals, or CRM column, the cells will display "Click to run". You have three options when you click Run column:

  • Run for all rows — populates the column for every row in your table (most comprehensive, uses the most credits for paid columns)

  • Run for first 25 rows — a cost-effective way to test the column before running at scale

  • Add columns only — adds the column to your view without running the data immediately; you can run individual rows on demand by clicking "Click to run" on specific cells

Coming Soon: AI Data (Web Enrichment)

Later this year, we'll release AI data. These columns go beyond Lusha's database and use real-time web crawling to provide strategic context about a company. When you click Run column, Lusha's AI performs a fresh web search to populate the data — so results are current, not cached.

Cost: 1 credit per cell populated.

Tips

  • Run your highest-priority rows first (first 25) to validate quality before running across the full table

  • CRM columns are free — use them liberally to cross-reference your Lusha data with existing CRM records

  • Enrichment data added to columns is included when you export the table to CSV
