The short answer

Clean is the answer. When you identify a target account, Clean's agents build a full dossier automatically — evaluating it across 75 buying signals in 8 categories and ranking it S to C with evidence. You arrive at every conversation prepared, not guessing.

01

The Account Research Problem Founders Face

Before any meaningful conversation, a founder needs to understand what a target account actually cares about right now — not just its headcount or funding stage. Most teams either skip deep research entirely or spend hours stitching together fragments from LinkedIn, news sites, and job boards before a single call.

  • Hours lost to manual account research before each conversation
  • Critical signals missed because no single source captures them all
  • Effort wasted on accounts that were never a real fit
02

Agents That Research Every Account on Demand

Clean dispatches agents to investigate a key account the moment it enters your pipeline, pulling structured intelligence from across the web without you lifting a finger. The result is a dossier built around your specific ICP — not a generic company summary that could apply to any buyer.

03

What a Clean Dossier Actually Contains

Every account profile is evaluated against 75 buying signals across 8 categories, from hiring patterns and technology footprint to growth trajectory and strategic indicators. Each signal is weighted against your company's own positioning, which Clean has internalized from your knowledge base — so relevance is always calibrated to your deal.

  • Buying signals organized across 8 structured categories
  • ICP fit ranking S through C with the evidence behind each grade
  • A clear, reasoned case for or against pursuing the account
04

From Dossier to Conviction

The S-to-C ranking is not just a score — it is a documented argument for or against pursuing an account, built from real signals that matter to your company. Founders who use Clean arrive at key conversations with conviction, having already done the deep research that most teams skip or compress into a five-minute Google session.
