About
Why Cordavo exists.
We built Cordavo because lean GTM teams need researched accounts, not giant lists. Automation plus human analysts deliver context, evidence, and verified contacts.
The backstory
I built Cordavo after years of watching SDR teams drown in bad data. At my last company, we had 50,000 contacts in Apollo. Our reps spent half their day validating accounts before they could write a single email. The ones who skipped that step got ignored or bounced.
Meanwhile, our best AE had a different approach: she'd spend 20 minutes researching one account, find a hiring signal or a tech stack change, and lead with something specific. Her reply rate was 3x the team average.
The problem? Her method didn't scale. You can't ask every rep to do 20 minutes of research per account when they're supposed to hit 100 touches a day.
So I started building what she did, but automated. AI finds the signals, filters for fit, and writes the context. A human reviews the output. The rep gets a researched account with a clear angle, ready to email.
That's Cordavo: the research your outbound deserves, without the manual grind.
