Our Story


After researching other business development tools, we found that most of them weren't built for small teams and business owners. They were counter intuitive, hard to use, and ultimately, time consuming to get the hang of.

We built Pathline.io to bring enterprise level business development to small teams, so that they can easily complete business development, sales and marketing functions.

Your sales and marketing efforts shouldn't be limited by your resources. Pathline.io is your new co-pilot.

FAQs

Answers to questions you might have about Pathline.

What does Pathline do?

Plus icon

Pathline is a business development platform that enables users to research, identify, and contact other companies automatically. It uses a customisable AI interface to enrich prospects, competitors, and potential partners, with key data points that can then be leveraged for other functions.

Who is Pathline for?

Plus icon

Pathline is ideal for startups, SMBs, and small business development teams that want to scale up their sales and marketing functions but lack the time or resources to do everything themselves.

Acting as a co-pilot, Pathline streams business development workflows by automatically completing prospecting, research, and message writing functions.

Marketing teams also use Pathline to research their competitors and generate accurate reports and collateral in a short space of time.

How secure is my data on Pathline?

Plus icon

Security is our top priority. Pathline uses end-to-end encryption, secure data centres, and regular security audits to ensure your data is protected at all times. We also offer role-based access control to manage permissions within your team.

Can Pathline integrate with existing tools?

Plus icon

No, but it doesn't need to. Pathline.io is a co-pilot that completes functions up until the point you action the data. This way, you stay in control.

Is Pathline easy to use if you’re not technical?

Plus icon

Absolutely! Pathline's interface is user-friendly and intuitive, designed for both technical and non-technical users. We built Pathline because we saw that most BD platforms were too technical for ordinary people to use.

What do credits do?

Plus icon

Credits are how we distribute resource usage costs to users. Credits ensure that everyone gets a fair share of access to the software. Every process costs a single credit. For example, building a list of 100 prospect companies costs 100 credits. Likewise, bulk researching 10 companies will cost 10 credits.

What is a custom analysis bot?

Plus icon

A custom analysis bot is like an AI chatbot, except it comes preloaded with all information about a specific company. Pathline allows you to create custom analysis bots in bulk. You can then ask it questions about the company to research it or generate sales materials.

What is Pathline Prospector?

Plus icon

Pathline Prospector is a data aggregator tool that finds companies based on a user-inputted description, researches them, and then outputs them in a spreadsheet format.

What is Pathline People finder?

Plus icon

Where publicly available and legally compliant, Pathline People finder will find people and relevant contact details inside companies, in conjunction with Pathline Prospector.

What is the Pathline Agent?

Plus icon

The Pathline Agent is the platform that users can use to bulk process lists of people and companies to produce sales messaging, research, or anything else based on publicly available information. Outputs will be in both card and sheet format.
