OpenFunnel: We monitor your TAM and surface companies when custom triggers fire.

We monitor your TAM and surface companies when custom triggers fire.

OpenFunnel is the Search Engine for GTM. Searching for "B2B SaaS, 501-1000 employees, uses Salesforce" - is just targeted spam. Even if you get creative with LLMs to query these databases, everyone has access to the same commoditized databases, these databases lack insights about right timing or pain-points prospects face. OpenFunnel is a time-aware search engine for insights and activities in your target segment - that reveal pain. You can search for activities like: "Find companies looking to implement usage based billing" "Find companies that moved from OpenAI to self-hosted models in the last 3-6 months" "Find companies who updated their pricing page to introduce an enterprise plan in the last 3 months" OpenFunnel continuously monitors these time-based signals, delivering actionable insights daily - so you have the fastest, unique insights that your competitors miss out on. Over 1000+ users are already discovering prospects through pain-first search, including some of the fastest-growing companies like Central, Mintlify, and Everest Systems.

The Problem:

GTM search is broken.

LLMs over commoditized GTM Databases won’t fix it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9OZ5_KJN5A

"B2B SaaS, 501-1000 employees, uses Salesforce" is just targeted spam.

No insights. No buying signals. No understanding of pain. Plus, data for growing markets aren't even present in these databases.

One-time snapshots. No timing. No triggers when pain surfaces. Your competitors have the same database. Everyone's spamming the same channels.

You need 24×7 searches capturing insights as they happen - not after they're stale.

Traditional Intent data is a blackbox and unreliable.

Only Inbound dependence is a reactive approach and prospects are already evaluating competitors by that time.

OpenFunnel automates finding unique, timely insights that get you "ins."

We unlock net new pipeline across GTM functions in Marketing, RevOps, SDRs, and BDRs that were unreachable before.

ENTER OPENFUNNEL:

OpenFunnel is your search engine for inferred pain: you describe the activities that reveal potential pain-points, we find the companies with those pain points, identify the right people, and produce outreach-ready messaging.

Find companies WHERE Activity happening = [abc] AND TimeRange = [m..n months]

Some examples that you can search for:

Companies implementing usage-based billing in the past 3-6 months - then monitor daily for new ones
Companies moving from OpenAI to self-hosted Llama in the last 2 months - then track all ongoing migrations
Companies that are looking to build out their government facing sales motions - then surface all such build outs.
B2C fintechs attending RSAC Conference in Las Vegas

Live search agents continuously monitor time-based activities and changes across your ICP that matter to your GTM.

LIFE OF CUSTOMERS after Openfunnel:

GTM teams setup custom insights they want to search and monitor for, in natural language.

OpenFunnel auto-surfaces new and existing accounts with deep actionable insights and sync to CRM, autonomously.

We work with the fastest-moving companies who understand the value of acting quick on insights - including Central, Mintlify, Everest Systems, Fini, and Numi.

Our self-serve platform has 1000+ users.

Why We're Building ThiS:

During F24 batch, we built GTM tools for developer-focused companies with zero knowledge of the GTM toolkit and stack.

Customers loved our first-principles approach - we built what we'd actually want: relevant outreach with real context at the right time.

Then we discovered existing that GTM tools are built on flawed, pre-LLM assumptions and this generalizes across industries.

GTM is timing, insights, and reasoning - exactly what LLMs excel at. As software shifts to agent-first, it becomes a search and discovery problem.

Traditional indexing lacks the temporal + contextual depth for GTM.

So, we're building a time-aware search engine for GTM.
