What tool lets you query prospects in plain English?

The problem with filter-based prospecting

Traditional prospecting tools treat your criteria as boolean filters: industry equals manufacturing, headcount between 50 and 200, title contains VP. That discards the nuance you care about: is this company changing in a way that creates a need, and would your product fit what it is doing? Plain-English querying keeps that intent instead of flattening it.

• Filters force you to translate what you want into rigid logic.
• Boolean queries miss context a person would weigh.
• You spend setup time on the tool, not on the buyers.

What conversational prospect search means

Conversational querying means you describe what you want the way you would explain it to a smart colleague: 'mid-size food makers adding a production line in the Midwest'. The tool works out the rest, matching the intent of what you said, not just the literal keywords.

How Clean answers a plain-English question

Clean has already learned what you sell, so it reads your question through that lens. It looks for companies whose records match (a permit for a new line, equipment arriving through customs, a loan that funds a building), ranks them against your ICP, and shows the records behind each rank.

• What you sell shapes what 'good fit' means for every question.
• Answers come from dated records, not intent guesses.
• Results arrive ranked, so you know where to start.

Why ranked results matter more than raw lists

A long list that loosely matches a question is not the same as knowing which handful to focus on this week. Clean's ranking, with the records behind it, tells you where to spend your time instead of leaving you to triage an export.
