Research sources
The tools we use, and why they're only part of the job
Tools help us find and sort information. The useful part is what comes after: checking each row against your criteria, having a person review it, and laying out the file the way you asked.
We name these tools to show how we work. We aren't partners with them and they don't endorse us.

What we research with
Nine sources, picked to fit each brief
Most orders use a few of these, not all nine. We pick based on where your kind of prospect is easiest to find.
- B2B database
Apollo
Company and contact search for building and filtering large lists of companies and people.
- Enrichment
Clay
Lets us combine several sources and fill in missing fields across a whole list.
- People search
LinkedIn Sales Navigator
Filters by role, seniority, and company to find the right decision-makers. Used under LinkedIn's terms.
- Contact lookup
ContactOut
Used to look up contact details. Emails are checked for format and flagged if we can't verify them.
- B2B database
ZoomInfo
Detailed company and org-chart data for the segments it covers well.
- Local data
Google Maps
Finding businesses by location, for field sales and local lists.
- Open web
Public company information
Company websites, careers pages, filings, and press. This is often where we find hiring and growth signals.
- Your input
Client-provided data
Your existing lists and CRM exports. We use them to remove contacts you already have, or to fill in gaps.
- Manual
Custom workflows
Research done by hand for criteria no database can filter on. It takes longer and gets closer to what you asked for.
Responsible research
How we handle data responsibly
We work with business contact data for genuine B2B outreach. We don't scrape behind logins, make up contact details, or resell your list. If we can't verify something, we mark it.
Business contact data only, for genuine B2B outreach.
No made-up emails or phone numbers. If we can't find one, the cell says "not found."
We follow each platform's terms and don't scrape behind logins.
We don't resell your list or criteria. Files are deleted after 7 days by default.
