BatchData vs ATTOM (2026): Which Property Data API Fits?
Maverick Data · Aug 14, 2026 · Updated Aug 18, 2026
TLDR
- BatchData and ATTOM are both enterprise property-data APIs sold through sales teams: BatchData is contact-forward (published plans from $1,000/month), ATTOM is the attribute-and-analytics warehouse with no public pricing.
- Neither offers insurance X-dates or DNC-flagged calling data; renewal timing isn't their category.
- If you're a proptech team, an investor platform, or an analytics group with engineers and budget, one of the big two is the right buy.
- For an independent agent working renewals, Maverick Data wins: X-dates, DNC status on every row, $100 per state per month for 50,000 export credits, self-serve signup, public API docs.
Comparing BatchData vs ATTOM, the honest short answer: both are enterprise property-data APIs, and they're closer to each other than either is to what an independent insurance agent needs. BatchData leans toward contact data and skip tracing for proptech companies and home-services marketers. ATTOM leans toward property attributes, transaction history, and analytics at national scale. Both sell through sales teams, both price for enterprise budgets, and neither offers insurance X-dates.
That last part matters if you're an agent rather than a product team. An agency working renewals needs timing (X-dates), phone numbers with Do-Not-Call status disclosed, per-state pricing, and a signup that takes a credit card instead of a discovery call. That's a different product category, and it's the one Maverick Data occupies at $100 per state per month. This comparison covers all three honestly, names a clear winner for the agent buyer, and includes the cases where the big two are the right buy instead.
What is BatchData?
BatchData is the data-API arm of BatchService, built around property records enriched with owner contact information. Their developer materials claim coverage of 155 million U.S. properties with 1,000+ data points each, owner contact details, and entity resolution that identifies the people behind LLCs and trusts. Those are vendor self-claims, but they match BatchData's clear positioning: they're the contact-forward option among property APIs.
Delivery is modern: a real-time REST API plus bulk delivery to warehouses like Snowflake, BigQuery, and S3. Pricing is published on their own comparison blog: property data plans from $1,000 a month for 100,000 records up to $5,000 a month, with skip-tracing plans from $2,000 to $20,000 a month. Buying still runs through "Talk to an Expert" calls-to-action and a demo request form, so budget a sales cycle.
What is ATTOM?
ATTOM is the incumbent property-data warehouse. Their API page cites coverage of more than 160 million U.S. properties and 99% of the U.S. population, queryable by address, parcel number, ATTOM ID, or coordinates, in JSON or XML over REST. The depth is the sell: ownership, sales history, comps, AVMs, neighborhood data, schools, and crime, with decades of transaction history underneath.
ATTOM publishes no pricing. The path in is "Contact a Data Expert," with trial keys and a developer sandbox mediated by that conversation. It's a deliberate enterprise motion, and for their buyers (portals, insurers' analytics teams, proptech platforms) it's normal procurement. For a solo agency owner, it's a door that doesn't open for a $100 budget.

What does an insurance agent actually need from a data API?
Strip the category down to the renewal-calling workflow and the checklist is short. You need the renewal window on every record, because timing is the entire edge. You need phone numbers with DNC status shown, not scrubbed silently, so you can run your own compliance under the FCC's Do-Not-Call rules. You need pricing per state, because that's how territories work, and you need it low enough to pay for itself on one written policy.
There's also a shape mismatch in how the products are metered. Enterprise APIs price on records or calls across the whole country, because their buyers query nationally. An agency licensed in one or two states doesn't want to pay for national coverage it can't legally sell into; it wants its states, cheap, refreshed on a schedule it can see.
Now look at what the big two meter and market: property attributes, valuation models, permits, portfolio resolution. Excellent data, nearly all of it unused on a renewal call. Neither BatchData nor ATTOM markets X-dates at all, which isn't a defect; it's evidence of who the products are for. Paying $1,000 a month for 1,000 data points per property when you'll use two of them is buying a warehouse to store a filing cabinet.
When is BatchData or ATTOM the right call?
Often, and it's worth being specific. If you're building a proptech product, an iBuyer model, or a home-services targeting engine, BatchData's contact-enriched property records and warehouse delivery are built for exactly that job. If you need deep property history, comps, AVMs, or neighborhood analytics behind an underwriting or investment model, ATTOM's depth is the point, and their onboarding support reflects real enterprise SLAs.
The tell is your team. If you have engineers, a data budget with four or five figures a month in it, and a use case that consumes property attributes at scale, buy enterprise. Carriers, MGAs, and agency networks with analytics teams fit that description. A three-producer agency in Wichita does not.
One more honest point in their favor: procurement friction buys you things. A sales-led vendor negotiates custom schemas, signs enterprise agreements, and assigns support engineers. If your project needs a contract with teeth and a human who answers when a pipeline breaks, the demo call is a feature, not a tax.
The verdict: why Maverick Data wins for agents
For the reader this site serves, an independent P&C agent working renewals, the verdict is one-sided: Maverick Data wins, and for reasons you can check. It's the only product of the three with X-dates at all. It's the only one with DNC status printed on every record, never used to quietly shrink a file. It's the cheapest by a factor of ten on published entry price: $100 per state per month for 50,000 export credits (annual: $1,000 per state per year), with filtering and previews free and only delivered exports counted. And it's the only one you can buy with a credit card instead of a sales cycle, live in Texas, Kansas, and Missouri today with more states shipping as they release; anyone can check current coverage through the public API docs without an account.
The honesty holds on our side of the ledger too. The X-date is a purchase-anniversary proxy and the site says so, because nobody's renewal dates are carrier-confirmed and someone in this market should admit it. The scoped exception is the whole first half of this article: if you're building a proptech product or an analytics model, buy BatchData or ATTOM; that's their category, not ours. And if you'd rather skip the calling entirely, our parent company Maverick Marketing runs done-for-you outreach.
Frequently asked questions
Does ATTOM publish API pricing?
No. Their property data API page routes all pricing and trial questions through a sales contact. Third-party posts cite entry prices, but ATTOM's own site shows no public number, so treat anything else as unverified.
Does BatchData require a demo?
Effectively yes. BatchData publishes plan pricing on its blog, starting at $1,000 a month for property data, but purchase runs through sales conversations and a demo request.
Do BatchData or ATTOM provide insurance X-dates?
Neither markets X-dates or renewal timing on their public pages. Both are property-centric platforms; renewal timing for insurance outreach isn't their category.
What's the cheapest way for an agent to get homeowner data with renewal timing?
Maverick Data is $100 per state per month for 50,000 export credits, self-serve, with DNC status on every record. That's the lowest published entry price in this comparison by a factor of ten.
