// Pipeline \\

Sweep, qualify, verify, approve

Agents do the research. You control the send.

[ 01 ]

Sweep

Agents scan community sources daily. Public surfaces only, logged out.

[ 02 ]

Qualify

Every lead is tiered A, B, or C against your rubric with cited evidence. Written like an analyst, not a database row.

[ 03 ]

Verify

Contact channels are resolved from public pages and verified before anything can be queued. Guessed addresses are never sent.

[ 04 ]

Approve

You review every draft and approve every send. Replies come straight to you and stop the sequence.

Every capability is an MCP tool

Launch sweeps, pull tiered leads with evidence, and request drafts from your AI assistant.

Drive campaigns from your assistant. The pipeline is exposed over MCP, so the session you already work in can run the whole research loop.

[ 04 / 06 ]  ·  THE MATH
// Cost anchors \\

The math against the alternatives

Market prices below are cited. investig8's numbers are measured. Nothing here is a revenue projection.

WHAT A LEAD COSTS

$4 to $6 per delivered verified lead on the self-serve tiers. The average Google Ads lead costs $70.11, and B2B verticals run $84 to $132 (WordStream, 2025). Paid search is inbound and this is researched outbound, so read it as a budget anchor, not a swap.

WHAT A MEETING COSTS

$500 per qualified meeting on the concierge pilot, and a meeting that misses the contract definition is replaced free. Outsourced appointment setting commonly runs $3,000 to $10,000 a month on retainer.

REPLIES PER 100 SENDS

3 to 4 replies per 100 sends is the cold email average; the top tenth of senders clears 10 (Instantly, 2025 platform data). investig8 is built to compete in that tenth: cited evidence, verified addresses, and a human approving every send.

WHAT ACQUISITION COSTS

$2.00 of sales and marketing spend per $1.00 of new ARR is the B2B SaaS median (Benchmarkit, 2024 data). Signal-first research exists to bring that ratio down, starting with research cost under $0.12 a lead.

Even at micro-SaaS deal sizes, $600 to $2,400 a year per customer, one closed deal covers months of any tier. Close rates stay yours; this page makes no revenue promises.

Frequently asked questions

What investig8 does, where it looks, and what it will not do.

What is investig8?

investig8 is research infrastructure for community prospecting. Agents find and qualify buyers inside niche communities that contact databases cannot see, verify real contact channels, and draft outreach that a human approves.

Where does it look?

Whop, creator marketplaces, Telegram channels, and paid communities. Agents read public surfaces only, logged out.

Does investig8 send email on its own?

No. You review every draft and approve every send. There is no autonomous send path, and guessed addresses are never sent.

How do agents connect?

Every capability is an MCP tool. Your AI assistant can launch sweeps, pull tiered leads with evidence, and request drafts. Sending always stops at the human approval gate.

What does the pilot cost?

The concierge pilot is $5,000 per month, or $500 per qualified meeting. Qualified-lead criteria are defined in the contract, leads that miss the definition are replaced free, and you own the domains and the data.

Does investig8 use LinkedIn data?

No. investig8 does not use LinkedIn data and does not scrape behind logins. Suppression and unsubscribe are enforced in the data layer.
