VS
Intentsify

Every tool shows you who’s interested. Few show you who didn’t include you.

Your pipeline only contains buyers who found you. Every week, companies in your category run head-to-heads and read alternatives lists — and the ones you’re absent from never become deals, never become losses, and never show up anywhere. Intentsify tells you who’s in-market. We tell you which rooms you’re not in.

  • Who ran a head-to-head against you — and which competitor they opened next
  • Who’s reading alternatives to a product like yours — the comparisons you never appear in
  • Every page, in order, with the score — and the function that produced it, published further down

How much of the story you get

Every vendor here tracks accounts.The difference is how much they tell you.Most stop at “this company is interested.” We go all the way to what it read, and when.

1

A topic is warming somewhere

Somebody, somewhere, is reading about your category. No company attached.

Topic
2

A named account is warming

You know it’s Acme, and you know the number went up. You don’t know what Acme did.

Where Intentsify stops

Which topics it warmed on

Closer. Still a bag of topics with no order, no sequence, and no competitor named.

The account, and every page it read — in order

The head-to-head it ran, which product it opened next, the alternatives list you weren’t on, and the score, with the function attached.

Spotsaas

Three signals, with the sequence attached

Intentsify sees comparisons too — that isn’t the difference. The difference is what reaches you: a band, or the order it happened in, with the maths attached.

Keep Intentsify. Add the signal it was never built to catch.

At $10k–$30k/yr we are not a rip-and-replace for a platform you already pay for, and we’d be lying if we pitched it that way. Here’s the seam.

Eight-figure signal volume across the whole web, corroboration between independent sources, plus syndication and activation. A Forrester Wave Leader, and the breadth argument is real.

Add Spotsaas for

One source you can audit end to end, in the category you sell into. Where their model blends signals you can't inspect, ours publishes every weight.

Intentsify is your wide net. We're the one strand of it you can pull on and verify. Corroboration is stronger when at least one source shows its working.

We were burning 30% of our outbound on companies that weren't actually in-market. Spotsaas Buyer Intent changed that in the first week. Our connect rate went up immediately.

Six questions. We answer all six.

Six questions. Every answer links to where it came from — their documentation, or Vendr’s real contract data. Nothing here is sourced to a comparison blog, including ours.

01

Where the data comes from

Spotsaas
First-party

One property, watched end to end — 2 million buyers research software on Spotsaas every year, across 419 categories.

Intentsify logoIntentsify
Aggregator

a reported 1.1 trillion intent signals a month across publisher networks, content engagement, review platforms and topic signals. Self-reported, and “signal” is undefined. Owns no source of its own.

02

What you can see

Spotsaas
The named account and every page it read, in order

the head-to-head comparisons, the alternatives lists, the pricing views. 317,000+ comparisons have run on Spotsaas.

Intentsify logoIntentsify
Describes research patterns “at the account, buying group, and persona level”

Whether persona means named individuals or modelled categories isn't stated; given the data is aggregated third-party, it is almost certainly modelled.

03

Is the scoring published?

Intentsify

Intentsify reports 1.1 trillion intent signals a month. It doesn't publish how many sources they come from — and none of them are its own.

Every intent vendor scores accounts. We’re the only one that shows you the function.

What each of us is for

We’d rather you heard this from us than found it out after signing. If the left-hand column is what you need, buy Intentsify — we’ll tell you that on the call too.

Where we pick up

The comparison you lost

The head-to-head comparison where a buyer weighed you against a competitor — which one they opened, and which one they opened next.

The lists you're missing from

Every alternatives list a buyer reads in your category, and whether your name is on it. Being absent is a decision someone made without you.

The order, not a number

Browsed, compared, read, priced — sequenced and timestamped. A score says an account is warm. The sequence says what to open with.

A score you can check by hand

Every weight, the decay curve, the thresholds — published on this page. You never take our word for a number.

Intentsify is strongest at

A Forrester Wave Leader, with the highest Current Offering score

Named a Leader in The Forrester Wave: Intent Data Providers For B2B, Q1 2025 — 15 providers assessed across 21 criteria, and Intentsify took the top score for Current Offering. That is the strongest third-party credential on this page, and it isn't ours.

The multi-source thesis is right

Their argument — that an account flagged by two independent sources is a stronger bet than one flagged by a single source — is correct, and corroboration does cut false positives. It's the best argument on this page that isn't ours.

Activation is built in

Content syndication and programmatic activation ship with the intent, so a signal becomes a campaign inside one system. We have no equivalent.

What we see, and what we don’t

Every vendor here has a scope. Most make you find it out on the call.

We see Spotsaas, and we see it completely

Every comparison, every alternatives list, every pricing view in your category — because it happens on our property. Research on other sites isn't ours to show you.

Corporate networks resolve; phones often don't

We identify the company behind a research session on a corporate network. Someone reading from home or on 5G frequently can't be resolved to their employer.

Quiet doesn't mean absent

An account we never saw may still be evaluating you elsewhere. Our signal tells you who was here — not who wasn't looking.

Accounts, not individuals

We tell you which company was evaluating you and exactly what it read. Nobody in this market hands you the named human who did the research — and anyone who says they do is worth a hard question.

It lands where you already work

A signal you have to log in to read isn’t a signal. Accounts arrive in your CRM, your reps’ queue and your ad audiences.

Into your CRM

Accounts land as records, not a dashboard you have to remember to open.

The comparison that happened this morning is worth five times what it’ll be worth next month.

That isn’t a sales line — it’s the decay curve we publish above. A signal counts full for seven days and fades from there. The evaluations you miss this week don’t wait for you. They finish.

What happens after you fill that in

No demo gate, no discovery call before you see anything. You get a real list first and decide afterwards.

01

Tell us your category

One field. Work email, so we know which company to run it for.

02

We run your category

We pull the accounts that researched it on Spotsaas — what they compared, what they read, in order.

03

You get the accounts, free

A real list from your category, not a demo environment. Read it, check the scores, decide if the signal is worth anything to you.

04

Then we talk, or we don't

If it's useful, $10k–$30k/yr and it runs alongside what you already have. If it isn't, you keep the list.

Compliant, and nothing to install

Most intent tools start with a tag on your site. This one doesn’t start with anything.

GDPR compliant

We resolve to accounts, not people. No buyer names, emails or phone numbers enter your systems from us.

CCPA compliant

Same architecture, same answer: organisation-level signals, no personal data changing hands.

Nothing to install

No tag, no pixel, no script on your site. There is no code for your security team to review.

The method is published

Every weight and threshold is on this page. Your team can audit a score without a call or an NDA.

Questions people ask

For coverage, yes. For auditability it inverts: every added source is another methodology you can't inspect, under a weighting you also can't inspect. Intentsify's corroboration argument is real. We're making the opposite bet — one source, fully published, so you can check the work instead of trusting the blend.

They describe research patterns “at the account, buying group, and persona level”. Whether persona means named individuals or modelled categories isn't stated publicly. We don't claim persona resolution at all — we resolve to the account, and then show you everything it did.

Intentsify's Vendr median is $43,636/yr, ranging $22,397–$129,540 — though Vendr doesn't publish a sample size, so read it with caution. Spotsaas is $10k–$30k/yr, because we do one job: one source, published end to end.

In principle. Aggregators license sources, and that's their model. It would arrive the way every other source arrives inside an aggregator — flattened into a score you can't audit. The thing that makes ours useful is the part that doesn't survive aggregation.
