What it does

Takes a set of intent topics or keywords and returns a ranked list of companies currently researching those subjects. Filter by signal strength, industry, company size, and geography to narrow the universe. Output is a list of accounts with their associated intent topics and composite scores.

This is a discovery-oriented tool. It surfaces net-new companies entering a buying cycle before they raise their hand, making it useful for top-of-funnel account prioritization.

Credits

Free. Search Intent does not consume bulk data credits.

When the AI uses it

The AI invokes this tool when you want to discover which companies are actively researching specific topics. It may chain into Enrich Intent for deeper signal detail on a specific account, or into Search Contacts to find people at high-intent accounts.

Example prompts

"Which companies are showing intent signals for data enrichment solutions?"

"Find mid-market SaaS companies in the US researching AI-powered sales tools."

"What accounts are currently in-market for competitor products like Lusha or Apollo?"
