What is Intent Data?

What does 'Intent Data' mean?

Behavioural information showing that a company or individual is researching a topic, product or category, gathered from things like content consumption, search activity, forum and community participation, or engagement with review sites. It is typically aggregated into topic scores at the account level and used to spot demand before a prospect fills in a form. Sources are commonly split into first-party data from your own properties and third-party data from external publisher or community networks.
