For Founders & Small Teams

No sales team. Every message has to count.

Small team, no dedicated sales hire, and not enough hours. Signado finds the buying signals at your target accounts and writes outreach that references real events. You send 30 messages that matter instead of 300 that don't.

Sound familiar?

You have a list of 1,000+ prospects from Apollo or LinkedIn. You know your team should reach out. But researching each one takes 20 minutes and there's a product to build.

Your outreach sounds generic because you don't have time to check what's happening at each company. 'I noticed your company is growing' is the best you can do at scale.

You tried cold email tools. The sequences fire on a calendar. Tuesday at 9am, follow up Thursday. No connection to what's actually happening at the prospect's company.

Reply rates sit below 2%. Your founding team is spending its most expensive resource (time) on the lowest-converting channel (untimed outreach).

How it works for Founders & Small Teams

From signal detection to sent message.

Signado signal detection for Founders & Small Teams

Existing signals on day one

Import your Apollo or LinkedIn list. Signado scans for everything that already happened: funding up to 12 months back, hiring 4 months, news 3 months. You have signals before your first coffee.

AI writes the first draft

Each message references the specific signal at the prospect's company. You review, tweak the tone, and send. Two minutes per message instead of twenty.

No new tools to learn

Upload a CSV. Click scan. Review signals. Draft messages. Send to Instantly or HeyReach. Five screens, no training, no onboarding calls.

Credits that match founder budgets

Starter plan is $99/month with 5,000 credits. Enough to scan 100 contacts and send 100 messages. No per-seat fees. Your whole team shares one workspace.

Works with Instantly, HeyReach, and CSV export for any other tool. Smartlead and Lemlist on the roadmap.

Recommended workflow

Scan & Send

Import your list, scan for existing signals, write outreach, send. One session, done. You're not running a pipeline — you're running a campaign. Do it once, measure replies, decide if you want to do it again next month.

Also works: Sprint

If your first Scan & Send gets replies, add 2-3 weeks of monitoring. New signals surface as they happen. You catch the funding round that closed after your initial scan.

Questions from Founders & Small Teams

I only send 20-30 emails a week. Is Signado worth it?
That's exactly when signals matter most. If you're sending 300 emails, you can afford a 1% reply rate. At 30 emails, every message needs to land. Signals give each message a reason to exist.
Can I use my existing Apollo list?
Yes. Export your list as a CSV from Apollo and upload it. Signado extracts the companies and starts scanning. You don't need to rebuild anything.
How much time does this actually take?
First scan takes a couple of hours to process (it runs in the background). After that, reviewing signals and sending messages takes 10-15 minutes per session. Most founders do one session per week.
What if I don't use Instantly or HeyReach?
You can export messages to CSV and paste them into whatever tool you use. Smartlead and Lemlist integrations are on the roadmap.
Is $99/month worth it at pre-revenue?
One booked meeting from signal-based outreach pays for months of the tool. The free plan gives you 500 credits to test before paying anything.
