The Foundation

Everything starts with one line of JavaScript.

Before you run a single campaign, before you hire a single SDR, you connect your website to the GTM engine. One JavaScript snippet — similar to how you'd install Google Analytics — and your entire site becomes a lead intelligence machine.

Every form submission is captured instantly. Every visitor is identified — anonymous traffic becomes known contacts with company data, job titles, and intent signals. Your website stops being a brochure and becomes the starting point of every deal in your pipeline.

This is where teams that use fragmented tools fall behind. They're stitching together visitor tracking from one vendor, form capture from another, and CRM sync from a third. With graph8, it's one install, and everything flows.

Your Data, Unified

One data warehouse replaces five disconnected tools.

The average B2B sales team juggles data across a CRM, a data provider, an enrichment tool, a sequencing platform, and a reporting dashboard. Every handoff between tools is a place where data gets lost, stale, or wrong.

graph8 consolidates everything into a single data warehouse. 250 million+ verified contacts. 50 million+ companies. A waterfall enrichment engine that checks multiple providers to find the best email and phone for every contact. Bi-directional CRM sync so your Salesforce or HubSpot is always in lockstep.

This isn't just about convenience — it's about data integrity. When your SDRs, campaign managers, and leadership all look at the same source of truth, decisions get faster and pipeline gets cleaner.

ICP & Targeting

Go after your TAM with precision, not spray-and-pray.

Most teams define their ICP once in a slide deck and never revisit it. In graph8, your ICP is a living, scored model that evolves with every closed-won deal.

Start by uploading your best customers. graph8 analyzes firmographics, technographics, and engagement patterns to build a lookalike model from your actual wins. Then it scores your entire TAM against that model — so your SDRs are always going after accounts that look like your best customers.

Layer on 30 billion monthly intent signals and you're not just targeting the right companies — you're reaching them at the right moment, when they're actively researching solutions like yours.

Inbound Engine

Never miss another lead. Every form, every chat, every visitor — captured.

Inbound leads are the highest-intent prospects you'll ever get — and most teams lose a third of them to slow response times, broken form routing, or chat tools that go unanswered after hours.

graph8's inbound engine runs 24/7. GTM Chat AI qualifies visitors in real-time, asks the right questions, and books meetings on your calendar before the prospect closes the tab. Every form submission is tracked instantly — no submission is ever lost because every form on your site is connected through the same JavaScript you installed in Chapter 1.

Calendar integration means qualified leads get a meeting link immediately. The speed-to-lead advantage alone can double your inbound conversion rate.

Outbound at Scale

Multi-channel sequences with hyper-personalization — built for volume without sacrificing quality.

Outbound isn't dead — bad outbound is dead. The teams winning today are running multi-channel sequences across email, phone, LinkedIn, SMS, and WhatsApp — each touchpoint personalized using AI that understands the prospect's company, role, and intent signals.

graph8's sequence builder lets you orchestrate all of these channels in one workflow. AI generates hyper-personalized messaging at scale — not generic templates, but messages that reference the prospect's tech stack, recent news, and specific pain points.

Deliverability is built into the foundation. Domain management, email warmup, sender reputation monitoring — you don't need a separate tool for any of it. Your emails actually land in inboxes, not spam folders.

The Power Dialer

The phone is still the fastest path to a meeting — but only if your SDRs aren't wasting time on voicemail and busy signals. graph8's power dialer uses smart voicemail sequencing to detect answering machines and drop pre-recorded messages automatically, while connecting live answers instantly to your SDRs. AI-powered call handling means every conversation is informed by the prospect's full history.

AI Automation

Campaigns built in 3 minutes. Calls handled 24/7. Replies in your brand voice.

graph8's AI doesn't just assist — it executes. Point the Campaign Builder at your website and it reads your positioning, understands your value props, and generates a complete multi-channel sequence in under 3 minutes. Not a rough draft — a production-ready campaign with email copy, call scripts, and LinkedIn messages.

Voice AI handles inbound and outbound calls around the clock. It qualifies leads, books meetings, detects voicemail, and routes live conversations — all while sounding natural and staying on-message. Your SDRs focus on the conversations that matter while AI handles the volume.

Message AI sits in your unified inbox and drafts replies that match your brand voice. Adjustable tone, context-aware responses, and full conversation history — your team reviews and sends, cutting response time from hours to minutes.

The SDR Marketplace

Scale SDRs up and down like cloud compute. Campaign managers orchestrate everything.

Hiring SDRs is slow, expensive, and risky. Training takes months. Turnover is brutal. And when demand spikes — a product launch, a new market, a seasonal push — you can't spin up a team fast enough.

CIENCE's Talent Cloud changes the equation. Need 5 SDRs for a Q4 push? They're trained, equipped with graph8, and running campaigns within days. Demand drops in January? Scale back to 2. No severance, no wasted salary, no HR headaches.

Campaign managers coordinate everything inside graph8 — sequences, targeting, messaging, performance tracking. Your SDRs and campaign managers live in one system, working from the same data and the same playbook.

"We started with a full CIENCE team of 5 SDRs. After 6 months, our internal team took over the entire system in graph8 — same sequences, same data, same playbook. The transition cost was zero. We just picked up where they left off."
— CIENCE client, SDR team takeover
"CIENCE generated 60% of our early sales. When we were ready to bring it in-house, the entire system — contacts, sequences, analytics — was already in graph8 waiting for us."

Analytics & Signals

One source of truth replaces guesswork.

When your data, campaigns, and SDR activity all live in one system, analytics become effortless. No more stitching together reports from 4 different dashboards. No more arguing about whose numbers are right.

graph8's analytics layer gives you real-time visibility into everything: pipeline attribution, SDR performance leaderboards, sequence conversion rates, dialer metrics, and intent signal feeds. Reporting AI auto-highlights wins and gaps and recommends next actions — your Monday morning pipeline review takes 5 minutes instead of 50.

Intent signals from 30 billion+ monthly data points flow continuously into your targeting model. When a prospect starts researching your category, you know about it before they fill out a form — and your SDRs can reach out at exactly the right moment.

The Handoff

Your system. Your team. Your pipeline. Forever.

Here's the part that makes graph8 fundamentally different from every other outsourced SDR arrangement: when you're ready, you take over — and it costs you nothing.

CIENCE sets up the entire GTM engine inside graph8 — the data, the sequences, the targeting, the analytics, the campaigns. Your dedicated team runs it, proves it works, and optimizes it. And when your internal team is ready to take the wheel, there's no migration. No export. No "starting over." Everything is already in your graph8 instance.

Your team logs in on Monday and picks up exactly where the CIENCE team left off — same contacts, same sequences, same playbook, same analytics. The system was always yours. CIENCE just built it and showed you how to drive it.

"Working with CIENCE felt like having an in-house SDR team. When we were ready to bring everything internal, the transition was seamless — it was already our system."
— Rocketrip
"CIENCE wasn't just an agency — they were part of our company. The handoff wasn't a project, it was just... continuing."

"They became an extension of our team. When we took over, nothing changed — same process, same results, just our people running it."
