Most SDR teams blast cold emails to purchased lists and accept a 2–3% reply rate. Signado flips that model: it scans LinkedIn daily for prospects posting about your keywords, enriches their profiles, and writes outreach messages referencing real events — hiring rounds, funding, leadership changes. The platform reports a 31% reply rate for signal-based outreach versus 15% for generic messaging, though this figure comes from the company’s own testing.
A Day in the SDR Workflow
- Set your ICP: Paste your website URL. Signado auto-fills your ideal customer profile — industry, company size, buyer titles. Built by Ashvin Janquee, who spent 18 years in tech sales before founding the platform.
- Add discovery keywords: Enter terms your buyers use (e.g., "cold email", "outbound sales"). Discovery scans LinkedIn comments daily and surfaces warm leads — people actively engaging with content in your category.
- Review the feed: Each lead arrives ICP-scored with a one-sentence reason, enriched profile data, and a draft message referencing a real event (the actual hire, the actual funding amount, not generic "I noticed your company is growing").
- Send from your stack: Push to Gmail, Google Workspace, Instantly, HeyReach, or fire a webhook to Zapier, Make, or n8n. Signado never logs into your accounts — no bots, no proxies, no risk to your domain reputation.
For accounts worth extra effort, run a Deep Dive (40 credits): Signado scans the company across seven buying signals with up to 12 months of history and feeds the results into the AI opener.
Credit Costs and Pricing
Every action consumes credits. The actual costs per action:
| Action | Credits | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Discover a warm lead | 3 | Profile enrichment + ICP scoring + reason |
| Find an email | 5 | Lookup (charged only if found) |
| AI-personalized message | 7 | Draft referencing specific buying signal |
| Deep Dive an account | 40 | Full 7-signal scan, 12 months history |
| Plan | Price | Credits | Approx. warm leads/month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 forever | 500 lifetime | ~166 one-time |
| Starter | $99/mo | 5,000/mo | ~1,666 |
| Growth | $349/mo | 20,000/mo | ~6,666 |
The Growth plan adds reply analytics. There’s no enterprise or "Scale" tier — the platform tops out at 20,000 credits/month. Free credits never reset; paid credits reset monthly. Monitoring pauses automatically when credits run out.
Where It Struggles
- No phone number finder: Signado finds emails (5 credits, charged only on success) but not phone numbers. Teams running multi-channel cadences (calls + emails + LinkedIn) need a separate dialing tool.
- Credit drain on Deep Dives: At 40 credits each, Deep Diving more than a few accounts per day burns through the Starter plan fast. Budget roughly 8–10 Deep Dives per day before exhausting 5,000 credits.
- No native CRM sync: No Salesforce, HubSpot, or Pipedrive integration. You need Zapier, Make, or n8n webhooks to push enriched data into your CRM — adds setup friction.
- LinkedIn-only discovery: The platform only scans LinkedIn comments. It doesn’t monitor Twitter/X, Reddit, or other platforms where buyers may be active.
- Young product: Launched February 2026 with 6 saves (15,716 views). Thin independent validation. The "31% reply rate" and "74% deal-win" stats (from Craig Elias’s SHiFT Selling research) are marketing claims, not audited data.
- No mobile app: Web-only interface. No iOS or Android app exists.
