Valley vs Common Room: Common Room detects signals but requires separate outreach tools. Valley completes the signal-to-meeting journey: While Common Room excels at signal detection, Valley converts signals into qualified meetings through intelligent LinkedIn outreach.

Valley vs Koala: Koala focuses on website intent without LinkedIn execution. Valley combines website signals with LinkedIn outreach automation for complete pipeline development.

Valley vs UserGems: UserGems tracks job changes but lacks LinkedIn outreach capabilities. Valley integrates job change signals with immediate, personalized LinkedIn sequences.

Signal-Based Transformation

Technical SaaS Company

Before Signals: Traditional outreach using CSV uploads and generic messaging across broad prospect lists with typical 2-3% response rates.

After Valley Signals: "Our response rate runs 6 to 10% probably... like triple compared to email. Valley is beating cold calls right now by like one or two in terms of qualified meetings."

Marketing Agency

Before Signals: Manual prospect research and generic outreach sequences requiring significant time investment with inconsistent results.

After Valley Signals: "I would describe Valley as a tool to really make your life easier. Increase the scale at which you can reach out to prospects and book in high quality leads without having to do all that yourself."

Staff Augmentation

Before Signals: Expensive agency partnerships with limited control and mediocre results from volume-based approaches.

After Valley Signals: "Valley gave us control of what we were doing as opposed to giving the keys and letting them go. But most importantly, it was a third of the price of the agency that we were using."
