# Overview
> Avina documentation
Avina tells you which companies are in the market for what you sell, and gets your team in front of them before anyone else does. It helps you build dynamic audiences of high-intent leads and gets your name in front of them across multiple channels: 1-1 personalized AI emails, account-based marketing campaigns, CRM workflows, and more.
We continuously monitor your entire TAM for buying intent, score every signal with AI, and trigger the right action so your team only spends time on accounts ready to buy.

## How Avina Works
### 1. Find every in-market lead
Avina's [Signals Agent](/features/ai-signals-agent) continuously scans first-party, third-party, and web data to surface buying signals tailored to how your buyers behave. Describe the signal you want in plain language or choose from built-in signal types like web visits, new hires, job postings, champion moves, ad engagement, and more.
### 2. Qualify and prioritize
The [Qualification Agent](/features/ai-qualification-agent) evaluates every signal against your Ideal Customer Profile, assigns ICP Fit grades (A-F), and uses AI to assess whether a signal meets your freeform qualification criteria. Your team only sees pre-qualified, high-intent leads.
### 3. Enrich contacts
Avina auto-enriches contacts with verified emails, phone numbers, LinkedIn profiles, and firmographics using waterfall enrichment across multiple data providers.
### 4. Automate the next best action
Build [automations](/features/automations) that trigger the moment a signal fires: enroll contacts in [sequences](/features/automations/sequences), add to [CRM lists](/features/automations/contact-lists), send to [webhooks](/features/automations/webhooks), or launch personalized outreach with the [Outbound Agent](/features/ai-sequences).
### 5. Integrate with your GTM stack
Avina syncs bi-directionally with your CRM and sales tools. Discovered accounts and contacts are pushed automatically, and signal history is attached to every record so reps always have full context.

## AI Agents
Avina is powered by three specialized AI agents that work together across the pipeline:

Evaluates every signal against your ICP and custom qualification criteria so only high-quality leads reach your team.
Drafts personalized, multi-step outreach using signal context and sends through your existing sequencer.
