Signal: Custom AI Signal (e.g., “SaaS companies that raised Series B or later in the last 90 days”)
Filter: ICP Fit = A or B
Action: Launch an AI Sequence
Why it works
Custom AI Signals let you codify the exact buying trigger that matters in your market — funding rounds, leadership announcements, product launches, regulatory changes, technology migrations — and turn it into a continuous pipeline of accounts. The Outbound Agent then drafts personalized outreach that references the specific trigger, so the first email reads like a human wrote it.
Setup
- Create a Custom AI Signal with a tightly scoped prompt.
- Example prompt: “SaaS companies with 50–500 employees that raised Series B or later in the last 90 days. Exclude companies outside North America.”
- Use the qualification field to tighten the results further if needed (e.g., “Must be in cybersecurity, devtools, or data infrastructure”).
- Activate the signal and verify the Preview results look right.
- Create an automation triggered by the Custom AI Signal.
- Add a filter: ICP Fit = A or B.
- Set the action: Launch AI Outreach → create or select an AI Sequence in your sending platform of choice.
- Activate.
Qualification is what separates a Custom AI Signal from a generic filter. Take 5 minutes to refine the prompt until Preview shows exactly the accounts you’d hand-pick — noise here compounds into wasted credits and rep time.
