Works with Apollo

How Signado Works With Apollo

Apollo gives you a contact database to filter. Signado finds warm leads from LinkedIn comments and helps draft the message. Use them side by side.

How to combine Apollo with Signado

1

Set up your ICP in Signado

Paste your website URL. Signado auto-fills your ICP from your site. Tweak and save.

2

Add a few keywords

Pick the topics your buyers actually talk about. One to three keywords is enough to start.

3

Warm leads arrive daily

Signado scans LinkedIn for people publicly commenting on posts about those topics. Each lead arrives ICP-scored with a one-sentence reason.

4

Use Apollo for additional account sourcing

When you want more contacts on a specific account beyond what discovery surfaces, use Apollo's filters to build a targeted list and bring those contacts into Signado.

5

Send messages tied to real signals

AI drafts a reviewable opener referencing the actual signal: the comment that surfaced the lead, or company-level signals from a Deep Dive. Send from Gmail, push to Instantly or HeyReach, or webhook anywhere else.

The piece Apollo doesn't cover

Apollo tells you who exists. It doesn't tell you who is commenting on your category right now. Sequences fire on fixed schedules: send Tuesday at 9am, follow up Thursday at 2pm, bump again next Monday. The timing has nothing to do with what's happening in the prospect's world. It's a calendar cadence, not a response to real signals.

There's no mechanism inside Apollo to find people actively commenting on LinkedIn posts about your category, your competitors, or the problems you solve. Your list says Sarah is VP Sales at Company X. It doesn't say Sarah commented on a competitor's post about deliverability last Tuesday. That comment is a behavioral intent signal. Apollo doesn't see it.

The result: generic emails sent at arbitrary moments, competing with 50 other SDRs who pulled the same list from the same database using the same filters. Everyone has the same contacts. Nobody knows who's actually ready to talk this week.

Why use Signado alongside Apollo

Daily warm-lead discovery

Scans LinkedIn every day for people commenting on posts matching your keywords. Each lead ICP-scored automatically.

Two-layer signal model

Comment signals power discovery automatically. 7 company signals layer in via Deep Dive on demand: hiring activity, funding rounds, company news, product launches, leadership changes, linkedin posts, and partnership announcements.

AI outreach

Drafts personalized messages that reference the actual signal: the comment they wrote, or the company event from a Deep Dive.

Signal-driven timing

Triggers outreach when someone comments or a real company event fires. You reach out because something happened, not because it's Tuesday.

Tell Signado your ICP and add a few keywords. Discovery runs every day on LinkedIn comments, surfacing warm leads (people commenting on posts about your category, competitors, or buyer topics) and scoring each against your ICP. Apollo sits alongside as a contact-data source: when Signado surfaces a high-fit lead and you want broader coverage on the account, pull contacts from Apollo and bring them in.

When you want even more context on an account that looks promising, click Deep Dive. Signado scans the company for 7 buying signals across 12 months of history: funding, hiring, leadership changes, news, product launches, partnerships, and executive LinkedIn posts. The AI weaves the comment signal plus any Deep Dive signals into the opener.

You stop emailing 500 people hoping 10 care. You email people who showed public intent this week.

What changes when you use Signado alongside Apollo

Apollo alone

Sequences fire on a fixed schedule. Same template to everyone on the list.

"Hi Sarah, I noticed your company might benefit from a more efficient approach to [industry topic]. Would you be open to a quick call this week?"

Apollo + Signado

Outreach triggers when a comment signal fires. Message references what they actually said.

"Hi Sarah, saw your comment on Jen's post about ramping SDRs past 30 days. You said most onboarding plans skip the first-call playbook, which is the gap most teams stall on. Worth a 10-minute look at how we close it?"

FAQ

Common questions

Does Signado replace Apollo?

No, they do different things. Apollo is a contact database. Signado finds warm leads from LinkedIn comments and helps draft signal-tied outreach. Many teams use Signado as their primary source of warm leads and keep Apollo for sourcing additional contacts on accounts that look promising.

How do I get my Apollo contacts into Signado?

Export your Apollo list as CSV. Upload it to Signado. The platform automatically extracts every unique company from your contacts and deduplicates. Signado will then continue surfacing warm leads from LinkedIn comments and you can run Deep Dive on any Apollo-sourced account too.

What buying signals does Signado use?

Two layers. Discovery runs on behavioral intent signals: who is publicly commenting on LinkedIn posts about your category, your competitors, or the topics your buyers care about. Deep Dive layers in 7 company-level buying signals on any account: hiring activity, funding rounds, company news, product launches, leadership changes, linkedin posts, and partnership announcements.

How is this different from Apollo's buyer intent signals?

Apollo's intent feature tracks anonymous website visitor behavior. Signado tracks behavioral intent signals: who is publicly commenting on LinkedIn posts about your category, your competitors, or the topics your buyers care about. Anonymous browsing curiosity versus named, public comment context on a specific topic you sell into.

How fast do warm leads arrive?

First warm leads typically land in your feed within 24-48 hours of activating your keywords. Discovery runs every day after that. Deep Dive is on-demand and scans an account in under a minute.

Can I use Signado without Apollo?

Yes. Signado finds its own warm leads from LinkedIn comments, so you can start with zero contacts. Apollo is optional and works alongside Signado as a contact-data source.

What tools can I send Signado messages through?

Gmail, Google Workspace, any SMTP server, Instantly, HeyReach, webhook to Zapier, Make, or n8n, or CSV export.

What does Signado cost?

Starter at $99/month and Growth at $349/month. Flat monthly rate, no per-user fees. Need more? Talk to us.

Keep Apollo for contact sourcing. Use Signado for warm leads.

You can use Signado entirely on its own or alongside Apollo. Both options work.
