Overview
Brivity is a real-estate-specific CRM that bundles contact management with IDX websites, transaction tools, and marketing automation under a single per-seat subscription. Twenty CRM is a general-purpose open-source CRM built on PostgreSQL that stores the same core objects — People, Companies, Opportunities, Notes, Tasks — but treats them as plain CRM primitives without real estate intrinsics. The migration carries Brivity contacts and companies directly into Twenty's People and Companies, maps deal records to Twenty Opportunities, and translates Brivity's transaction and listing data into custom fields or custom objects depending on how your team used them. The parts that cannot migrate automatically are Brivity's IDX website bindings, transaction management workflows, and Auto Plans — those have to be rebuilt in Twenty's settings, and FlitStack exports a rebuild reference so your admin knows exactly what to recreate. We use Brivity's CSV export capability and REST API as the source mechanism, map every field through a field-level diff, and land clean data in Twenty's CSV import format with relation IDs resolved.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.
AI proposes the map; you confirm before any record moves.
Parent–child, lookups, and ownership stay linked.
Calls, emails, meetings — with original timestamps.
Documents, uploads, and inline notes move with the record.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Brivity object lands in Twenty CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Brivity
Contact / Person
Twenty CRM
People
1:1Brivity contact records map directly to Twenty CRM People. The People object holds name, email, phone, job title, and a companyId relation. Brivity contacts without a primary company get created in Twenty with the companyId field left empty for manual assignment or linking.
Brivity
Company
Twenty CRM
Companies
1:1Brivity company records map directly to Twenty CRM Companies. The Companies object in Twenty stores name, domain, industry, employee count, and annual revenue fields. Parent-company hierarchies present in Brivity translate into Twenty's hierarchical company model when applicable, preserving organizational structures across the migration.
Brivity
Deal / Transaction
Twenty CRM
Opportunities
1:1Brivity deal and transaction records map to Twenty CRM Opportunities. The Opportunities object captures deal name, pipeline stage, monetary amount, expected close date, and relational links to People and Company records. Pipeline stage values from Brivity translate directly to Twenty's stage pick-list options on each Opportunity record.
Brivity
Task / Follow-up
Twenty CRM
Tasks
1:1Brivity tasks and follow-up items map to Twenty Tasks. Tasks in Twenty support due dates, assignees, and completion status fields. Each task can be linked to a People, Companies, or Opportunities record through relations, preserving the contextual connection between follow-up activities and the relevant CRM records.
Brivity
Note / Call Note
Twenty CRM
Notes
1:1Brivity notes and call logs map to Twenty Notes. Notes in Twenty can be attached to People, Companies, Opportunities, or any custom object. The original creation timestamps and full note body text are preserved exactly as they existed in Brivity, maintaining the historical context of every client interaction.
Brivity
Lead Source
Twenty CRM
People.customField
1:1Brivity lead source properties indicating how each contact was generated have no direct standard field equivalent in Twenty's People object. We create a custom field (lead_source__c) on the People object in Twenty's Data Model settings and migrate the original lead source values so your attribution data remains intact and reportable after migration.
Brivity
Referral Type
Twenty CRM
People.customField
1:1Brivity referral type properties tracking whether contacts originated from past client referrals, sphere of influence sources, or other categories migrate as a custom pick-list field (referral_type__c) on the People object. This preserves the referral attribution logic your team relies on for analyzing lead sources in Twenty CRM.
Brivity
Transaction / Listing Record
Twenty CRM
Custom Object
1:1Brivity transaction and listing records do not have a native equivalent in Twenty's standard objects. We create a custom object (Transaction__c) in Twenty matching the fields Brivity stores (property address, listing price, status, agent, close date) and migrate all historical transaction records as records of that custom object.
Brivity
Pipeline Stage
Twenty CRM
Opportunities.stage
1:1Brivity pipeline stage names (e.g., 'New Lead', 'Showing Scheduled', 'Under Contract', 'Closed') map to Twenty Opportunity stage pick-list values. Each Brivia pipeline stage gets a corresponding Twenty stage entry so the deal progression logic reads correctly in Twenty's kanban view.
Brivity
Owner / Agent
Twenty CRM
WorkspaceMember
1:1Brivity owner/agent assignments resolve by email match against Twenty workspace members. Unmatched owners are flagged before migration — your team either invites them to Twenty first or assigns their records to a fallback member. No record lands without an owner in Twenty.
Brivity
Activity History (calls, texts, emails)
Twenty CRM
Tasks
1:1Brivity activity history (logged calls, sent texts, email records) migrates as Twenty Tasks with type labels preserved. Each activity record links to the parent People or Opportunity record. Original activity timestamps are stored as custom datetime fields for reporting continuity.
Brivity
Auto Plan / Sequence
Twenty CRM
Workflow (rebuild reference)
1:1Brivity Auto Plans and marketing sequences are workflow logic tied to contact lifecycle triggers. Twenty has a workflow builder, but the automation definitions do not transfer. FlitStack exports the full Auto Plan configuration as a JSON reference document your admin can use to rebuild the logic in Twenty's workflow settings.

Gotchas + challenges
Platform-specific issues from each side, plus the pair-specific challenges that don't show up on either platform's page on its own.
Brivity gotchas
No public API forces CSV-based migration scoping
Auto Plans and automated sequences do not transfer
IDX website configuration is non-transferable
Add-on pricing creates unpredictable total cost
GCI and commission data may not survive field mapping
Twenty CRM gotchas
Import order is enforced and critical
Export limited to 20,000 records and visible columns only
Soft-deleted records count toward uniqueness and trigger restores
API rate limits cap at 200 req/min on Organization tier
No native email sequences — follow-up cadences require external tools
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Audit Brivity data and prepare Twenty workspace
FlitStack exports all Brivity objects via CSV — contacts, companies, deals, transactions, tasks, and notes. We run a data quality report to flag duplicate records, missing email addresses, and records without owner assignments. Simultaneously, we review your Twenty workspace and generate a custom field creation checklist for all Brivity custom properties that don't have native Twenty equivalents. Your admin pre-creates those fields in Settings → Data Model before the migration plan is finalized.
Create field mappings and resolve object relationships
We build a field-level mapping document that pairs every Brivity field to its Twenty counterpart — direct mappings, custom field targets, value mappings for pick-list options, and transformed fields where the data shape changes (e.g., Brivity owner_id resolving to Twenty Workspace Member ID by email match). We also resolve the dependency order: Companies load first, then People with companyId references, then Opportunities with both personId and companyId references, then custom objects last.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
A representative slice — typically 200–500 records spanning contacts, companies, deals, and transactions — migrates into Twenty first. We generate a field-level diff comparing source values against destination values so you can verify that pick-list mappings are correct, custom fields populated as expected, and owner resolution worked for your team roster. You sign off on the sample before the full migration runs. Any mapping corrections happen at this stage.
Execute full migration with delta pickup
Full migration runs against Twenty's CSV import pipeline. A delta pickup window — typically 24–48 hours after the main migration window — captures any records created or modified in Brivity during the cutover so Twenty reflects the final state at go-live. FlitStack logs every record operation (create, update, skip) in an audit log. If reconciliation fails, one-click rollback reverts the Twenty workspace to its pre-migration state.
Deliver Auto Plan export and post-migration verification
After the data migration completes, FlitStack delivers a JSON export of all Brivity Auto Plan definitions and sequence logic as a rebuild reference for your Twenty admin. We run a final record count reconciliation against the source CSV exports to confirm no records were missed. You verify the data in Twenty — pipeline stages, custom fields, contact associations — and flag any records that need correction before your team begins working in the new CRM.
