What kind of signals does polyseek detect?

Leadership changes (departures, appointments, interim roles), restructurings, M&A activity, funding rounds, expansion into new markets, and strategic shifts. Each signal is scored for relevance based on your watchlist configuration.

How does JD deanonymization work?

Our AI matches anonymized job postings against company signatures: role requirements, location patterns, industry indicators, compensation hints, and language style. Only high-confidence matches are surfaced. Current success rate is approximately 40%.

How often do I receive the briefing?

You configure the frequency: weekly or monthly. Most clients choose weekly scans with Monday morning delivery. Each briefing is deduplicated against previous scans so you only see new intelligence.

What does 'enriched contacts' mean?

For each actionable signal or deanonymized opportunity, we identify the most relevant decision-maker (typically the hiring manager or HR lead) and enrich their profile with verified email, phone, LinkedIn, and current role details.

Can I combine this with other polyseek reports?

Absolutely. Signals to Mandate feeds directly into Client Scouting for deeper company analysis, and Company Profiling for pitch preparation. It's designed as the first phase of the executive search business development workflow.

From signals
to mandate.

Detect leadership changes, deanonymize job postings at scale, and get enriched decision-maker contacts, delivered as a weekly briefing to your inbox.

Most business development is reactive. Yours doesn't have to be.

Executive search firms wait for inbound calls or scan LinkedIn manually. Meanwhile, signals that predict mandates are hiding in plain sight.

Waiting for the phone to ring

Most firms rely on referrals and repeat clients. By the time you hear about a search, competitors are already pitching.

Perfect timing, impossible to catch

Leadership changes, restructurings, and growth rounds signal upcoming searches, but tracking them manually across hundreds of companies doesn't scale.

Hidden behind anonymous job ads

Thousands of executive roles are posted anonymously each week. The company behind the ad is your next client, if you can identify them.

Two AI engines. One intelligence feed.

Market Signals and JD Deanonymization work together to surface opportunities before your competitors see them.
