How It Works

From signal to sent, step by step

From your contact list to a personalized campaign timed to real buying signals. Every message references something that actually happened.

01

Import Your Contacts

Upload a CSV from Apollo, Clay, or ZoomInfo. Or scrape a LinkedIn post to pull responders and commenters. Signado extracts the companies behind your contacts and starts building your target list automatically.

What this step does

  • CSV and LinkedIn import
  • Automatic company extraction
  • Deduplicate contacts across lists

02

Decide How to Spend Your Credits

Your plan gives you a monthly credit pool. How you spend those credits is up to you. Most teams pick one of these three approaches.

What this step does

  • Scan & Send: import a list, grab existing signals, fire outreach, done.
  • Sprint: same as above, but add 2-3 weeks of monitoring before sending.
  • Continuous: keep monitoring running. When a signal fires, you send.

03

Choose Your Monitoring Priority

Assign contacts to daily or weekly monitoring. Daily contacts are checked every day, weekly once per week. Each cycle costs 10 credits. You allocate your credit pool based on how close each account is to a deal.

What this step does

  • Daily: check every day for hot prospects
  • Weekly: check once per week for long-term tracking
  • Move contacts between daily, weekly, and stored anytime

04

Describe Your Business

Tell Signado what you sell, who your ideal customers are, and which signals matter most. This context helps the AI score signals more accurately and write messages that actually sound like they came from you.

What this step does

  • Better signal scoring aligned to your ICP
  • AI-generated messages that reference your product
  • Same tone and style across every message

05

Get Existing & Future Signals

On first import, Signado scans for everything that already happened: funding up to 12 months back, hiring 4 months, news 3 months. After that, daily and weekly monitoring catches what happens next. Every signal is scored for strength and relevance.

What this step does

  • 7 signal types: funding, hiring, news, LinkedIn posts, partnerships, launches, leadership
  • Historical lookback on first scan
  • Intent scoring with recency and correlation bonuses

06

Generate Personalized Outreach

Tell the AI what you sell, which signals matter most, and how you want your messages to sound. Signado writes each message referencing the specific signals detected for that company, not generic templates. One contact's message references their funding round. Another references their VP Sales hire.

What this step does

  • Signal-specific message personalization
  • Control tone, length, and what gets included
  • Per-contact signal context in every message

Review and Send via Your Outreach Tool

Connect your cold outreach tool with an API key. Review every generated message in a spreadsheet view. Regenerate individual messages if needed. When you're ready, select your leads and hit send. Signado delivers everything straight into a live campaign inside your outreach tool with every field already mapped.

What this step does

  • API key setup (Instantly and HeyReach live, Smartlead and Lemlist on the roadmap)
  • Full spreadsheet review and inline editing
  • One-click regeneration per message
  • Sends straight through your outreach tool
