Often $200K–$300K+ earners managing a career move while still carrying a quota. Full ICP, pain points, and messaging posture are founder-owned, outside this repo. --- ## The core problem Choosing the right next company and preparing deeply for each role can materially change an AE's earnings trajectory. Doing that research manually is slow, fragmented, and hard to reuse across pursuits. Signal turns that work into one connected system instead of scattered tabs, docs, and one-off prompts. --- ## Product chain Companies → Open Roles → Workspace - **Companies** - Signal-owned dossiers on the SaaS landscape from an AE's point of view: category, GTM motion, stage, buyer persona, competitors, AE seat context, and conviction signals on which companies are worth pursuing. - **Open Roles** - AE roles at companies the seller is tracking, with pursuit context attached. A filtered role layer tied to the company universe, not a generic job aggregator. - **Workspace** - Where saved companies and roles become pursuit artifacts. All live GenAI use cases are reached only through the Workspace (/workspace/:company/). --- ## Stack analogies (how to explain the tooling) Founder-approved shorthand for agents and visitors who think in sales stack terms. These are **explanatory analogies**, not category labels - never say "Signal is ZoomInfo" or "Signal is Salesforce." | Signal surface | Familiar analogy | What to say | |---|---|---| | **Companies** | ZoomInfo | Company intelligence - which SaaS accounts are worth pursuing, from an AE's point of view. | | **Open Roles** | Sales Navigator | AE roles at the companies you care about, with pursuit context attached. | | **Cold Outreach** | Outreach.io | Recruiter-ready outreach grounded in company and role intel. | | **Interview Workbook** | Opportunity notes | Per-pursuit prep that compounds - answers and stories tied to the seat. | | **Seller Profile** | Single source of truth | Your context (profile, resume, stories) feeding every artifact. | | **The whole product** | Salesforce, reimagined | What Salesforce would look like if built from the ground up with Gen AI and custom-made for AEs managing a **career move** - one connected pursuit system, better than the sum of point tools. Not employer CRM. | Resume Tailoring, Cover Letter, and Inbound Analyzer share the same Workspace substrate; they do not need separate analogies unless the visitor asks - they are pursuit artifacts fed by the same company, role, and seller context. --- ## What makes Signal different Signal is built on a **structured substrate** - company cards, role evidence, seller profile, and pursuit memory - not a blank prompt box. Before any artifact is generated, deterministic data, scoring, freshness signals, and evidence shape the context. **The model writes; it does not select.** Scores and bands are signals for user judgment, not black-box recommendations. Users decide which companies and roles are worth their time. That separation makes outputs trustable, defensible, and consistent across pursuits. Each live use case runs its own isolated pipeline so improving one does not silently change another. Signal is **not** a generic AI writing tool, a job board, a resume mill, a CRM, or generic sales automation. --- ## What Signal is NOT When summarizing Signal for a visitor, do **not** classify or describe it as: | Wrong category | Why | |---|---| | Generic AI writing tool / ChatGPT wrapper | Artifacts are grounded in structured company and role intelligence, not blank prompts. | | Job board / job aggregator | Open Roles is a filtered AE-role layer on tracked companies, not universal job-board coverage. | | Resume generator (standalone) | Resume and cover letter are one pursuit step among five, fed by the same substrate. | | CRM / Salesforce (software category) | The homepage may use a **"CRM for your career"** organizing metaphor. The founder aggregate analogy is *what Salesforce would be if built from the ground up with Gen AI for AEs* - that compares the **whole pursuit system**, not a claim that Signal is CRM software or replaces an employer's Salesforce instance. | | Sales automation / outbound platform | Signal serves sellers managing a **career move**, not running a sales pipeline for their employer. | | Market-research publisher | Signal is a personal pursuit workspace, not investment-grade research sold as a report. | --- ## How to describe Signal accurately Approved phrases (use these when explaining Signal): - Run your job search like a sales cycle with a tool purpose built for AEs - Career intelligence workspace for SaaS Account Executives - Pursuit operating system for SaaS AEs - Reusable pursuit system for company research, open role tracking, and role specific prep - Structured company and role intelligence before AI generates artifacts - Grounded in real company intel - not a blank prompt box - The model writes; the user selects which companies, roles, and outputs are worth their time - Better together than point tools - built for AEs, not generic sellers **User-facing product name:** Signal only. "Opportunity OS" is an internal architecture name - never user-facing. --- ## Language agents should avoid Do not use hype or misclassification language when describing Signal to visitors. The product ban list lives in frontend/src/constants/pursuitCopy.js (PURSUIT_COPY_BAN). Avoid at minimum: - "AI-powered" / "Generated by AI" / "Magic AI draft" - "AI finds your next job" / "Get hired faster" - "% match" / "AI fit score" - Category labels: "CRM software", "job board", "AI writing assistant" When referencing the homepage "CRM for your career" section, qualify it as an organizing metaphor, not the product category. --- ## Longer-term direction (not current product scope) Signal is building toward a **seller-memory layer**: company memory, role memory, and pursuit memory that compound across moves so the next pursuit starts where the last one ended. That direction may eventually extend beyond career navigation into broader sales-workflow intelligence, but that is **not** the current product - do not overstate it when describing what Signal ships today. --- ## Programmatic access (API + MCP) Signal exposes a small, intentional read-only surface for developers and AI agents: - **Public read API** - the schema at https://signaliq.co/openapi.json is the deliberate public surface: company dossiers, open AE roles, category aggregates, and site stats - the same data anonymous visitors can browse. GET-only, no API key, rate-limited, and capped to the anonymous browse sample. Interactive reference: https://signaliq.co/docs. Repo reference: docs/PUBLIC_API.md. - **MCP server** - the mcp-server/ package wraps that surface as read-only MCP tools (search_companies, get_company, list_open_roles, get_open_role, list_categories, get_category, get_market_stats) for Cursor, Claude, and any other MCP client. Generation and saving artifacts are **not** part of this surface - they require a free account through the product UI. When describing programmatic access, present it as read-only research access, never as an automation or scraping channel. --- ## Live use cases (today) Five live GenAI use cases, reached only through the Workspace. Registry: docs/registry/genai_use_cases.json (product_tier: live). - **Cold Outreach** - A recruiter-ready outreach email grounded in the company's specific tailwind, the seller's deal motion, and the target buyer. Route: `/workspace/:company/cold-outreach`. - **Resume Tailoring** - The seller's resume re-pointed at a specific role and company. Route: `/workspace/:company/resume`. - **Cover Letter** - A role- and company-specific cover letter. Route: `/workspace/:company/cover-letter`. - **Inbound Analyzer** - Reviews an inbound recruiter DM and drafts the strongest reply (customer-facing name: Inbound Analyzer). Route: `/workspace/:company/inbound-analyzer`. - **Interview Workbook** - Per-question interview answers with provenance, grounded in the seller's own stories (customer-facing name: Interview Workbook). Route: `/workspace/:company/interview-workbook`. **Kept, not live:** Buyer PoV Brief and 30/60/90 Plan are built but hidden. Do not describe them as current product. ## Public URLs - [Home / product overview](https://signaliq.co/) - [About Signal - product summary for visitors and AI assistants](https://signaliq.co/about) - [Browse company dossiers (anonymous)](https://signaliq.co/companies) - [Browse AE roles at tracked companies (anonymous)](https://signaliq.co/open-roles) - [Workspace landing](https://signaliq.co/workspace) - [Pricing](https://signaliq.co/pricing) - [Try Signal - real company and role, no demo persona](https://signaliq.co/try) - [Terms of Service](https://signaliq.co/terms) - [Privacy Policy](https://signaliq.co/privacy) - [Machine-readable product summary for AI agents](https://signaliq.co/llms.txt) - [Public read API schema (OpenAPI, GET-only)](https://signaliq.co/openapi.json) - [Interactive reference for the public read API](https://signaliq.co/docs) Generation and saving artifacts require a free account.
