See https://github.com/clearbit/clearbit-node/pull/50#issuecomment-1017904727 , which (emphasis mine) states clearly this library is unmaintained:

Hi Ronan,

Thanks for reaching out again. To best serve our wide customer base, we continue to make regular updates to our product, improving breadth, depth, and accuracy of our data. We follow industry standard prioritization of engineering resources based on impact and urgency. We are not able to dedicate resources to the node.js library.

Best,

<Name censored, I don't want to name names> | Head of Customer Support | Clearbit

Asking customers to make REST calls on their own is totally acceptable, and plenty of web services do so.

But then please don't pretend to paying customers you're maintaining a library, and please state clearly in this lib's README that it's deprecated / unmaintained.
