Types of Intent data available

RollWorks offers multiple types of intent data that should be combined to help you to triangulate true intent to purchase. Some types of intent data we use at RollWorks are proprietary, while others are sourced from industry-leading third-party partners, and they should be combined for optimal results.

  We recommend using multiple intent sources

In the section below we have listed all intent data sources available in RollWorks as follows:

  • Account-level intent data: aggregated signals that indicate an Account is surging with intent.
  • User-level intent data: granular signals that indicate an individual Contact is surging with intent.
