Why this market is hard to reach
By the time a situation is public, the pitch list is set. Origination means being in the room quarters earlier.
Executives move, companies cross size thresholds, new players emerge - static coverage lists are stale the month after they're built.
Junior time spent fixing titles and hunting emails is time not spent on the analysis clients pay for.

Frequently asked questions
Saved lists store the filters rather than a snapshot, so re-running one reflects today's market: executives who moved, companies that crossed a size threshold, new entrants. Contact details are re-checked whenever you export.
The mandate-givers: CEOs, CFOs, owners and heads of corporate development, with verified business contact details. As a size check, CEOs and CFOs at 201 to 5,000-employee companies across Germany, Austria and Switzerland count 44,049 (checked 2026-08-20).
It replaces the list-hygiene part: finding the companies, fixing the titles, hunting the emails. The analysis, the angle and the pitch stay yours, which is where the analyst hours belong.
Searches, counts, filters and redacted previews are free and unlimited on every seat. Credits leave the shared pool only when a contact is revealed or exported, so exploratory coverage work has no marginal cost.
Make the screens mutually exclusive by sector, size band or geography, and keep a single suppression file in whatever you send from. Argorant holds the coverage segments; your sending stack holds the contact history.
CSV export works with anything, native pushes cover the common CRM and sequencer stack including HubSpot, Smartlead and Google Sheets, and the REST API covers everything else. Most teams keep the CRM as the relationship record and use Argorant as the layer that keeps it fed.
Phone reveals are available from the Pro plan at 10 credits each, and only charge when a direct or mobile number is actually returned. Company switchboard numbers cost nothing.
It is business contact data for named people in a professional role, exported to your systems and sent from your own infrastructure under your own compliance controls. Argorant does not send on your behalf and does not sit in the message path.
Same day. Build the screen and count it for free, check the redacted preview for fit, then export. The first 25 companies cost nothing, so a new coverage area can be tested before it is budgeted.
No call required. Sign up, run the search, and see your market before you commit to anything.
