Built by demand gen veterans who spent years watching intent vendors overpromise and underdeliver. We decided to build The Honest Truth.
Most intent platforms rely on signals that don't predict behavior. We took a different approach based on what actually matters.
Most platforms use opaque algorithms that weight signals inconsistently. A score of 87 tells you nothing about actual buying behavior.
One whitepaper download or website visit doesn't indicate intent. Real buying involves multiple stakeholders and repeated actions.
No algorithm can predict B2B buying with certainty. What matters is observing actual behavior that correlates with receptivity.
Teams spend time chasing leads that don't convert. Marketing gets blamed when "high-intent" accounts don't move forward. Meanwhile, actually engaged prospects get overlooked because they don't fit a predetermined score.
The problem isn't your sales process. It's that traditional intent data doesn't reflect how B2B buying actually works.
We don't predict who's "going to buy." We show you who's actually doing things that suggest they might be receptive to a conversation.
3 people from the same company = something's happening
Pricing page 3x this week = active evaluation
Case studies + integration docs = serious consideration
Yesterday matters more than last month
Email + website + LinkedIn = coordinated research
Because no one can know that
Numbers without meaning are worse than useless
That's not how B2B works
Context requires multiple data points
We succeed when you succeed
We won't tell you someone is "going to buy." We'll tell you that based on their behavior, they're more likely to be receptive to a conversation right now than they were last month.
That's it. No magic. No guarantees. Just better odds based on what people actually do.
Behavioral signals cluster into predictable patterns across the buyer journey. We track them in real-time to catch opportunities at every stage.

Most intent data looks at what companies could be buying. We look at what they are actually doing right now. The difference is the gap between prediction and reality.
We run Demand Dogs, a demand generation agency. For years, we watched our clients struggle with the same problem: intent data that didn't work.
Our sales teams were drowning in "high-intent" leads that never converted. We'd spend hours chasing accounts that looked promising on paper but showed zero actual buying signals. Meanwhile, the accounts that were actually moving through their buying process got overlooked because they didn't hit some arbitrary score threshold.
We realized the problem wasn't our sales process. It was that traditional intent data was built to sell software, not to reflect how B2B buying actually works. So we started building our own system to track what people actually do—not what algorithms predict they might do.
When we started using behavioral signals instead of intent scores, everything shifted. Our teams spent less time on noise. Our conversations were more relevant. Our close rates improved. And our clients started asking: "How are you doing this?"
More qualified conversations when we stopped chasing scores
Less time wasted on accounts with no real buying signals
Faster movement through the pipeline
The old terminology was designed to sell you software. Ours is designed to describe reality.

| Intent Score: 78 | A made-up number | Signal Strength (with context) |
| In-Market | Downloaded something once | Active Research |
| Buying Stage | Your funnel, not theirs | Engagement Stage |
| High Intent | Hit an arbitrary threshold | Multiple Correlated Signals |

Your data stays yours. Dark funnel visibility is always included. You only pay for enrichment.
See who's visiting your website, engaging with content, and researching you. Your data, always visible, always included.
When 3+ people from the same company are researching you, that means something. We surface those patterns.
Activity from yesterday is more relevant than activity from last month. Our signals decay over time, like real interest does.
Know what they researched before you reach out. "I saw you looked at our enterprise pricing" beats "just checking in."
Our AI identifies behavioral patterns that correlate with receptivity—not magic predictions, just better pattern matching.
You own your dark funnel data. It stays with you. No vendor lock-in. Switch anytime without losing your insights.
