Buyer Readiness Scorer - Real Intent From Real Signals
If an entrepreneur "adopted" this product today, here's the realistic math.
Fermi summary
If you land 60 SMB customers at $250/mo that's $180k ARR - but with ~14% odds of getting there in year 1 and $28k upfront, the expected take-home is negative; this is a year-2 or year-3 payoff story if you survive the crowded field.

Go-to-market motion
Cold outbound email + LinkedIn to VP Sales and RevOps leaders at 10-200 person B2B SaaS companies → 20 demos/month → 3-4 closes/month at $250/mo avg.
Key risks
- HubSpot and Salesforce are actively shipping native AI lead scoring in 2025-2026 - the standalone value prop erodes before you reach defensible scale
- Scoring accuracy is immediately testable: if customers don't see measurable pipeline improvement within 60 days, churn is near-certain and RevOps communities will notice publicly
- Without licensed third-party intent data (Bombora, G2 buyer intent), scores are limited to first-party signals, making the product structurally weaker than 6sense and MadKudu at comparable price points
