| description | Scan A-tier leads for buying signals using Perplexity deep research. Checks for funding, hiring, press, and growth indicators to prioritize the hottest prospects. |
Deep research on A-tier leads to find buying signals before outreach.
For each A-tier lead, queries Perplexity to check:
Leads with signals get flagged as "Priority 1" — reach out first.
An A-tier lead with recent funding is 10x more likely to buy than one without. They have budget, they're growing, and they're actively investing.
This step separates "good fit" from "good fit with money."

| Signals Found | Priority | Action |
|---|---|---|
| 3-4 signals | Priority 1 | Reach out immediately, heavy personalization |
| 2 signals | Priority 2 | High priority sequence |
| 1 signal | Priority 3 | Standard A-tier sequence |
| 0 signals | A-tier | Still good, no urgency boost |
