How scoring works

LeadIntel uses a deterministic, reasons-based 0–100 score to help you prioritize daily outreach.

What goes into the score

  • ICP fit: how closely the account matches your stated target.
  • Trigger recency: how fresh the underlying signal is.
  • Signal strength: how specific and actionable the event appears (e.g., funding vs. vague mention).

The goal is consistency: similar inputs should produce similar outputs so you can build a reliable daily workflow.

Example breakdown

Acme Security
Score 86/100
  • ICP fit: security buyers + mid-market
  • Hiring spike in Sales Engineering
  • Recent product launch
Northwind Logistics
Score 71/100
  • ICP fit: ops-heavy teams
  • Partnership announcement
  • Signal freshness: last 14 days
BlueSky HR
Score 52/100
  • Partial ICP fit
  • Press mention (low specificity)
  • Older signal

What the score is not

  • Not a guarantee of purchase.
  • Not a substitute for qualification.
  • A prioritization tool to focus your limited daily outbound time.

How to improve results

  • Tighten your ICP so “fit” is clear.
  • Add 10–25 strong accounts to your watchlist so the digest has enough signal density.
  • Use consistent templates so you can measure what messaging works.
