This is good, but still falls into the FullContact/Intercom/Clearbit camp without clear differentiation. The service would add a lot more value if it niched down and provided really relevant information.
As a sales person, I haven't found a service that actually tells me what I want to know about a lead/company. I often find myself wanting to know some combination of the following:
# of employees, approximate revenues, years in business, family-owned or not, number of locations, age of founder(s), scope(s) of work.
This helps me form a mental image of the company and helps me decide whether or not its worth pursuing them.

It seems like this market became saturated in just the past couple of years with clearbit, and even intercom providing this for free. Used to be a real need but afraid OP might be a little late in releasing this.

I'm not sure you understood what they actually do. This service gives you more information about an email (such as Name, Company that person works for, etc).
# of employees, approximate revenues, years in business, family-owned or not, number of locations, age of founder(s), scope(s) of work.
This helps me form a mental image of the company and helps me decide whether or not its worth pursuing them.

Intercom uses another company for their data too: https://docs.intercom.io/help-and-faqs/your-users-data-in-in...
