Why it matters?

If you're selling into HR, finance, or compliance, you know the drill: inboxes are fortified, buying cycles are gated, and generic outbound just doesn’t land. Regulated verticals demand precision — not just in product, but in pipeline generation. And yet, most outreach tools treat every market the same. That’s why regulated SaaS teams are ditching horizontal signal platforms like Koala in favor of focused execution engines like Valley.

Selling to compliance buyers with a generic SDR tool is like bringing a megaphone to a courtroom — loud, misaligned, and totally ineffective. What you need is surgical outreach: intelligent, safe, and tuned to your industry nuance.

1. Valley Outperforms on LinkedIn — the Only Channel That Works for Vertical SaaS

Valley focuses where it counts: LinkedIn. In regulated sectors, your buyers — from CFOs to benefits leaders — don’t respond to email spam or cookie-cutter cadences. Valley uses AI to analyze LinkedIn signals, match tone, qualify leads, and send personalized messages the moment intent appears.

By contrast, Koala tracks many signals — but stops short of action. You'll still need another tool to execute, personalize, and manage compliance. That gap? It costs time, and deals.

2. Retention-Proven in Regulated Markets

According to Valley’s internal retention benchmarks, vertical SaaS teams using persona filters and workflow-based sequences retain at over 43% by Month 6 — some of the best in Valley’s entire customer base. Why? Because regulated buyers need relevance. And Valley delivers messaging that reflects their world, not yours.

Koala lacks vertical specificity. Its strengths lie in broad signal visibility, not the execution required to convert skeptical compliance execs.

3. Koala Offers Data. Valley Delivers Meetings.

Koala aggregates 30+ signals and has solid identity resolution. But it stops at insights. Valley goes end-to-end: signal to sequence to scheduled meeting. No copy-pasting. No guessing which prospect to chase. Just targeted, high-signal outreach sequences ready to go live — and actually safe on LinkedIn.

4. Precision Beats Volume for Regulated Buyers

Koala’s strength is scale. Valley’s strength is specificity. With Valley, your outreach isn't just timed — it's qualified. The AI scores fit, crafts messages that sound like you, and references real-world triggers (e.g., job changes, post saves, mutual connections). For buyers in compliance-heavy sectors, that 1:1 relevance builds trust — and pipeline.

If you're selling into HR, finance, compliance, or legal, Valley isn’t a “nice to have.” It’s your new competitive edge. Book 3-4x more qualified meetings on LinkedIn — with messaging that speaks their language, not just yours.

👉 Built for vertical SaaS. Proven to convert. Here's Valley for you.
