Funding

Series B raised in the last 90 days

A target account closes a priced growth round. Fresh capital creates budget and a hiring plan, and the mandate to spend it is usually already written.

Where the evidence comes from

  • Funding announcements and press releases
  • SEC Form D filings
  • Startup and venture news coverage

Public sources only. Every claim on a page cites back to one.

How Intakra weights it

High weight for the first 90 days, then a steady decay. The round itself matters less than what it funds, so Intakra weights higher when the announcement names expansion into the segment your product serves.

Who tends to own the decision

The VP of Growth, Head of GTM, or CRO named as the round's hire-and-scale owner.

Recommended play

Skip the generic congrats. Tie your outreach to what the round is funding (a new segment, a new region, a hiring surge) and show how you shorten that build-out.

Example openerillustrative template

Saw the raise, {company}. Rounds like this usually mean {trigger} in the next two quarters; here is how teams hit that number without adding headcount first.

This is a template, not a real message. Placeholders like {company} and {trigger} fill in from the cited why-now once Intakra names the real account. Never send it unedited.

Related concept

Discrete, dated events, funding, leadership changes, M&A, launches, hiring surges, that open a window of buying readiness.
