Pursuit

Pursuit is the definitive pre-RFP intelligence platform for organizations selling to state, local, and education (SLED) government entities. It transforms the traditionally opaque and lengthy public sector sales cycle by surfacing actionable buying signals 6-18 months before a formal Request for Proposal (RFP) is published. The platform continuously monitors and scores over 110,000 public-sector entities, detecting critical intent from budget documents, council meetings, contract expirations, and leadership changes. This allows sales, marketing, and customer success teams to engage with precision and context, showing up as a knowledgeable partner rather than an outsider. By delivering curated, high-accuracy data on entities, key contacts, and live opportunities directly into existing CRM and sales workflows, Pursuit removes guesswork and administrative friction. The result is a shared intelligence ecosystem that empowers entire go-to-market teams to build a qualified pipeline earlier, improve win rates significantly, and secure public contracts with consistent success.

Pre-RFP Signal Detection

Pursuit's core engine scans and analyzes millions of data points from budget cycles, meeting minutes, and procurement portals to identify genuine buying intent long before an RFP is issued. It scores each SLED entity based on live signals, enabling teams to prioritize efforts on opportunities already moving toward a purchase, effectively capitalizing on critical budget windows and avoiding missed fiscal year cycles.

Entity & Contact Intelligence

The platform maintains a continuously enriched database of over 110,000 SLED entities, providing detailed organizational charts, verified contact information for decision-makers, incumbent vendor details, and historical contract data. This ensures teams have complete, accurate account context for every interaction, eliminating time-consuming manual research and keeping pace with frequent personnel changes in government.

Native CRM & Workflow Integrations

Pursuit offers bi-directional sync with major CRM platforms like Salesforce and HubSpot, ensuring signal and contact data flows automatically into sales teams' existing workflows. This seamless integration eliminates manual data entry, maintains a single source of truth, and enables features like prioritized call lists and alerts directly within reps' daily tools, driving adoption and efficiency.

Role-Specific Intelligence Portals

Beyond a generic database, Pursuit delivers tailored functionality for each persona. Account Executives get a Chrome extension for instant meeting prep, BDRs receive daily prioritized outreach lists, Marketing can build ABM campaigns on real signals, and Customer Success gets proactive renewal alerts. This ensures every team member operates on the same, relevant intelligence for their specific role.

Accelerating New Business Pipeline

Sales Development Representatives and Account Executives use Pursuit's daily alerts on budget approvals, new initiatives, and contract expirations to identify and engage with in-market accounts. By focusing on scored, high-intent signals, teams can build a qualified pipeline 3x faster and achieve significantly higher cold-call conversion rates by leading with relevant insight.

Winning Competitive RFPs

For Account Executives, Pursuit provides critical competitive intelligence before an RFP drops. Knowing the incumbent vendor, contract value, procurement history, and the specific challenges an agency aims to solve allows teams to craft a compelling, tailored proposal and strategy, transforming them from outsiders to informed front-runners and improving win rates.

Running Targeted ABM Campaigns

Marketing teams leverage Pursuit to build precise Account-Based Marketing campaigns grounded in real buying signals. By syncing audiences of in-market entities to platforms like LinkedIn Ads, Marketo, or HubSpot, they can deliver hyper-relevant content based on budget cycles or new projects, lifting campaign conversion rates and supporting sales with warmed-up leads.

Proactive Customer Retention & Expansion

Customer Success managers configure alerts for key churn risks and renewal opportunities 90-180 days in advance. By monitoring signals like budget cuts, leadership changes, or competitor interest in their accounts, they can intervene proactively to secure renewals and identify expansion opportunities, protecting and growing existing contract revenue.

What types of buying signals does Pursuit detect?

Pursuit detects a wide range of intent signals from public records, including budget appropriations for new projects, discussions in city council or school board meetings, expiring contracts with incumbent vendors, leadership changes in relevant departments, and the publication of RFIs or preliminary procurement documents. These signals indicate an entity is actively moving toward a purchase.

How does Pursuit ensure data accuracy and relevance?

The platform employs a multi-source verification process and continuous data enrichment to maintain a 94% accuracy rate. It cross-references official government databases, procurement portals, and public records, and its system is designed to update contact and organizational information as changes are published, ensuring teams always have current and reliable intelligence.

Yes, Pursuit offers native, bi-directional integrations with major CRM platforms including Salesforce and HubSpot. This allows for automatic syncing of account scores, contact details, and buying signals directly into your existing records. It also offers integrations for pushing audience data to marketing automation and advertising platforms.
