Every record coded for your niche on arrival, so lists, matches and BD targets come from a market model, not keyword search.
Send the export from Spott; we clean, dedupe and code it, and you review a sample before go-live. No weekend of CSV wrangling.
Cross-tenant isolation attacked by 20 automated probes before every deploy, encrypted credentials, and a public security page that names the mechanisms.
The BD engine. Spott is excellent at capturing what happened (meetings, calls, notes) and presenting candidates beautifully. SearchOS is built to create what happens next: buying-signal radar on your target market, reverse-marketing campaigns with auto-picked buyers, a coded market brain for your niche, and a morning money-list per desk. Capture versus creation is the real comparison.
Yes. Calls are recorded, transcribed and turned into suggested record updates you approve, with briefing calls creating vacancies automatically. Mobile in-person capture is on our public roadmap.
Spott publishes US$169 to 249 per user monthly. SearchOS pricing is public on our pricing page, including the Founding 100 rate, which locks a founding desk in at a fraction of that for life.
The comparison that matters is a week of your real work. Free trial, no card, and your data comes in coded, not dumped.
