Was Coldreach tut

Coldreach helps sales teams find ready-to-buy leads, by monitoring public signals *custom* to your product. For example, it can find who's hiring their first accountant, so an accounting automation product can hit them with a targeted message at the right time. Public data sources (job postings, news articles, 10-k reports, etc.) tell a lot about a company’s priorities and the problems it faces. We train AI sales agents to monitor them and find who needs your help and why. Sales teams know who'd thank them for a cold email/call now, and can sound relevant without hrs of manual research. Typically, targeted outreach yields 2-8x higher booking rate compared to random outreach. **Example intent signals we track**: - Bookkeeping automation product: Monitor who starts to hire human to manually enter invoices - Compliance product: Monitor who recently onboarded a new Compliance Analyst - CRM integrations: Monitor who starts to hire engineers experienced in Salesforce API.

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built an AI-powered sales tool that monitors public data tailored to a specific product's sales triggers. For example, if you sell bookkeeping automation software, Coldreach detects when companies start hiring manual bookkeepers. That signal means they're likely to need your product soon. We pull from job postings, news, and regulatory filings, and then train AI agents to spot these custom signals that indicate buying intent. This saves sales teams hours of manual research and leads to 2-8x higher booking rates by making cold outreach relevant and timely.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in San Francisco, CA, and the company is based here now. After YC, we plan to stay in San Francisco.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is the ecosystem we're part of and where we can easily find customers and technical talent. We are already embedded here and don't see a reason to relocate.
