Company research tool

Name a company. Get a one-page brief with sources, ready before the call.

Examples

A sales brief, an investor screen and an agency's pitch prep. Same sources, weighted to the meeting.

How it works

  1. Name the company and the reason

    Give a name or a domain and say why you are looking: a sales call, an investment screen, a pitch. The brief is weighted toward what that meeting needs.

  2. Pull the facts

    Chatly gathers firmographics and leadership from Akta and Ploid, and the company's web footprint, traffic and top pages from Ahrefs, all fetched at the time you ask.

  3. Read one page

    The brief opens with what the company does, then size, funding, people, traffic and three talking points. Every fact is numbered to its source, and the gaps are named.

Who it’s for

  • Read in two minutes
    Before the 10:00 call

    Account executives before a first call

    Ten minutes before discovery, read one page that tells you what they sell, how big they are, who is on the call and what to ask first.

  • Three questions, no guesses
    Gaps named for the partner meeting

    Investors and analysts screening

    A consistent brief per company, size, funding, growth and traffic trend side by side, so the shortlist is built on the same facts for everyone.

  • Pitch angle found
    72% of traffic on one hub

    Agencies preparing a pitch

    Know the prospect's traffic, top pages and positioning before the meeting, and arrive with ideas that fit what they already do.

Frequently asked questions

What is a company research tool?

A company research tool gathers what is known about a business, such as its products, size, funding, leadership and online presence, into one place so you do not have to piece it together from ten tabs.

Where does the company information come from?

Chatly pulls firmographics and people from Akta and Ploid and web traffic and rankings from Ahrefs, live at the time you ask. Each fact in the brief is numbered to its source.

Can it research private companies?

Yes, with what is public. Size, location, leadership and web traffic are usually available. Revenue and profit often are not, and the brief says so rather than guessing.

How long does a company brief take?

Usually a minute or two. The sources are read in parallel and the brief is written as the data arrives, so you can start reading before it finishes.

Can I research a list of companies at once?

Yes. Paste several names or domains and get one brief each, plus a summary sheet comparing them on size, funding and traffic.
