Activate Signal Monitoring
Signal monitoring scans your contacts' companies for buying indicators—funding rounds, executive hires, product launches, and more. Let's turn it on.
Priority vs Watchlist
Signado offers two monitoring modes:
- Priority — Checked daily. Use for your hottest prospects.
- Watchlist — Checked weekly. Use for accounts you're nurturing.
You can have one list in each slot. For getting started, we'll set your list as Priority for faster feedback.
Set your list as Priority
- Go to Lists in the sidebar.
- Click on your list to open it.
- Find the monitoring badge (shows "Paused" or current status).
- Click the badge to open the dropdown.
- Select Set as Priority.
- Review the confirmation and click Set as Priority.
The first signal check starts immediately. After that, Priority lists are checked once per day.
What happens next
Signado now monitors all companies in your list for these signal types:
- Funding announcements
- Job postings (hiring signals)
- Company news
- Product launches
- Leadership changes
- Executive LinkedIn activity
- New partnerships
When a signal is detected, it appears on your Signals page with an intent score.
