Know the company before the conversation starts
Akintic helps sales and business development teams understand prospects, customers and target accounts before important conversations.
Less time searching for context. More time working out what it means for the opportunity.
Good account research takes more than a quick search
- Company website.
- LinkedIn.
- CRM.
- News.
- Search engine.
- Funding announcements.
- Maybe some old account notes.
You piece together what the company does, what has changed, and what might matter to the conversation. Then you do it all again for the next account.
Akintic supports prospect research, meeting preparation, account planning, renewals and ongoing commercial relationships.
It complements your CRM and sales tools with deeper company context.
Akintic helps you understand more than the account name

Where the opportunity may sit

What deserves a question
Surface inconsistencies, information gaps, watchpoints and developments worth exploring in your next conversation.
But when would sales teams use Akintic?
Before outreach
Understand the company beyond a name on your prospecting list.
What do they actually do? Who owns them? What has changed? What appears important to the business right now?
Start with context before deciding how to approach them.
Before an important meeting
Refresh your understanding before a discovery call, pitch, or senior stakeholder meeting.
Recent leadership changes. Acquisitions. Expansion. New products. Public priorities. Commercial developments.
Useful context can change the questions you ask, and the conversation you have.
During account reviews and renewals
Companies change after the deal closes.
A fresh Akintic Profile can help account teams understand what has happened around an existing customer before a renewal, expansion discussion or strategic review.
