What's Missing

Why Sales Teams End Up With Too Many Tools

1

Data tools stop at the contact

Lusha, Apollo and ZoomInfo find contacts, then meter every reveal with credits that expire. You end up with a name, not a worked deal, and a bill that grows with every seat and every lookup.

2

CRMs manage pipeline, but don't fill it

HubSpot organises the leads you already have but has no way to find new ones. You still buy a separate data tool to fill the pipeline, and another to build proposals.

3

Per-seat and per-credit pricing adds up

Every new user and every reveal adds cost, and the lower price only shows up if you lock in for a year. The plan you signed up for is rarely the bill you get.

The Signal Difference

An AI-Powered Sales System, Not a Single-Purpose Tool

Signal is not another contact database or CRM. It connects prospecting, outreach, follow-up and pipeline in one system, so your team spends less time moving between tools and more time moving deals forward.

✓
Prospecting, Outreach and Pipeline in One System

Find companies, reveal verified contacts, run personalised outreach and manage the deal without switching tools.

✓
Flat Price, Unlimited Users, No Credits

$99 a month, month to month, whole team included. Up to 2,000 fresh prospects a month, with no per-reveal credits.

✓
ANI Guides the Next Action

ANI surfaces the next best action across prospecting, outreach and pipeline so opportunities keep moving.
