How is Syft AI different from databases like ZoomInfo or Apollo?
A data provider is typically built to give you a massive list of companies and contacts to enable an email blast approach. This often leads to a spray and pray motion where sellers spend most of their time consolidating data and hoping to land one meeting in five hundred. Syft takes the alternative approach by skipping to the end. We tell you exactly who to focus on and why you are a fit so you can spend your time delivering a perspective that actually lands the meeting.
We use tools that aggregate our product or community data. Should we still look at Syft?
Yes. We solve different problems. Those tools are excellent at harvesting the crop you have already planted by surfacing opportunities from existing users. Syft is for the unknown unknowns. We find the companies that are not on your radar yet but are actively trying to solve the problem you handle. This allows you to break into cold accounts with a clear right to win.
Why shouldn't I just use an "All-in-One" platform like Unify or Amplemarket?
Those platforms are excellent at automating the delivery of messages at scale. Syft is built to provide the strategic layer that sits in front of that automation. We focus on the research and logic required to ensure that when you do use a delivery platform, your team is reaching out to the right people for the right reasons. We help you move from simply sending messages to starting meaningful conversations.
Is this like “AiSDR” or “Artisan” that replaces my sales team?
Scaling effort without precision is wasted and often ruins potential opportunities within your TAM. If you spam the same message to everyone, you are ironically connecting with no one. We believe you have to solve for the who and the why before scale becomes valuable. Our focus is putting your sellers in a position to lead with perspective rather than just increasing volume.
How does the AI know what our "ideal" customer looks like?
We do not rely on generic keywords or basic industry filters. Syft ingests your website and documentation to learn your tribal knowledge. This includes the nuanced win stories and specific value propositions that usually only your top performers understand. We then use that custom profile to scour the web for matches that go far deeper than standard intent data.
Is this just another "Intent Data" tool?
Traditional intent data usually tells you that someone from a specific company viewed a website and then leaves you to guess why. It may even score the lead as a 72, but it leaves you wondering what to do next. Syft moves past the observation by connecting the dots between signals and your specific value proposition. We only show you Value Matches that have an active, validated reason to engage with you right now.
How long does it take to see results?
You can see your first Value Matches in minutes. Syft does not require a complex implementation, so our goal is to help you set your first meeting in the first week. The platform creates the habit of looking at company activity to connect the dots to specific problems you solve. We have even had a seller set their first meeting during their initial onboarding.
Will this work for a complex or technical product?
Yes. In fact, Syft is built specifically for complex B2B sales. If you sell a commodity, a database of contacts is sufficient. But if you solve high value problems that require timing and context, Syft helps you identify the subtle evidence that a company is ready for a sophisticated conversation. We help your team find the companies currently showing the symptoms of the problems you solve.
Why shouldn't I just hire more SDRs to do this research?
You could, but throwing more people at a research problem often just scales your overhead and your chaos. High performing sellers should not spend half their day digging through websites and job boards to find a reason to reach out. Syft automates the research tasks and pattern matching that slow humans down. This allows you to create massive value with the team you have today and hire more people only when the unit economics tell you it is time to grow. Hire as needed to engage your total addressable opportunities.
What level of AI expertise do my sellers need to have.
Zero. Your sellers should be building relationships and closing deals, not acting as prompt engineers. If you see a prompt box in a sales app, the vendor is outsourcing their product development to you. We believe it is our job to do the heavy lifting and provide the answer so your team can focus on selling.
Is it possible to see every opportunity in my territory?
The problem is not that you do not know your market, but that you cannot be everywhere at once. Most sales leaders do not lose because a competitor is better. They lose because they did not even know an evaluation was happening until the contract was already signed or in a competitor press release. Syft acts as your eyes and ears by identifying the symptoms of a problem in real time. While true omniscience is impossible, it is a goal worth chasing. Our mission is to get you as close as possible to your total addressable opportunities so you can grab a seat at the table.
