Personalize every insight, ICP match, and action recommendation to your role and goals — set up in under two minutes.
SignalScout surfaces a lot of signal. But not every signal matters equally to everyone — a founder prospecting pipeline reads their dashboard differently than a CMO optimizing content reach or an investor tracking emerging founders.
The Intent Profile is how you tell SignalScout who you are and what you're optimizing for. Once set, it shapes the labels, highlights, and action recommendations across your entire dashboard — so the same underlying data surfaces the insights that matter to you.
Your Intent Profile lives in Account Settings — navigate to /settings or click the Settings link in your dashboard navigation.
Scroll past the Subscription section and you'll find the Intent Profile card. It takes about 60 seconds to configure and you can update it any time.
What you'll configure:
Once your role and goal are set, SignalScout re-frames language across the Pulse, Insights, and Actions tabs. The underlying data is identical — only the framing shifts to match what's meaningful for your context.
Founder / CEO
Sales Executive
Marketing Lead
Investor
These label changes are purely presentational — no data is filtered or hidden. You can switch your role at any time and the dashboard updates immediately.
The most powerful part of the Intent Profile is ICP matching. When you enter target job titles and industries, SignalScout scans every engager in your Influenced tab and flags anyone who matches.
Matching engagers get a ★ ICP badge next to their name and an amber highlight on their row. You can also toggle the ICP only filter to show exclusively matched engagers — turning your entire Influenced tab into a curated list of ideal buyers.
How matching works
VP Sales, Head of Growth, CTOIf no ICP keywords are set, the filter and badges won't appear — SignalScout only activates matching once you've defined your ICP.
The tone preference controls how insights are framed — not what data is shown, but how it's communicated.
Tactical & direct
Give me the action, skip the context
Best for: Sales executives and founders who want clear next steps without narrative framing.
Strategic & narrative
Help me see the bigger picture
Best for: Marketers and investors who want context around why a signal matters before acting on it.
New users see a 3-step onboarding modal the first time they log in. It walks through the same fields as the Intent Profile card in Settings — role, goal, ICP titles/industries, and tone preference.
You can skip the modal and configure your profile later from Settings. If you skipped it, just navigate to /settings and fill in the Intent Profile card there.
The modal only shows once — after you complete or skip it, it won't reappear. Your profile persists across sessions and devices.
