The Problem

Licensed vs. Actually Used

There is a critical difference between a tool being licensed and a tool being used. Most technographic databases cannot tell the two apart.

Intelligence Capabilities

Three Signal Types

Every signal RetainIQ surfaces is account-level, timestamped, and tied to a specific product category.

01

Installbase Intelligence

Know which tools are deployed, not just licensed.

KT activity is a more reliable signal of live usage than any vendor database or web scraper. Volume and recency of employee-generated content is a direct proxy for active deployment.

Product category mapping
02

Displacement Signals

Detect platform transitions 30–60 days before they surface publicly.

When accounts are transitioning away from an incumbent platform, KT activity drops and onboarding spikes appear. These signals emerge weeks before a change is visible anywhere else.

30–60 day lead time
03

Stakeholder Discovery

Surface workflow owners who never appear in buyer databases.

Employees generating enablement content on specific tools surface the operational owners and power users inside an account, the people who influence purchase decisions without holding budget.

The Mechanism

KT Activity as a Deployment Signal

RetainIQ is a knowledge transfer and software enablement platform. Companies use it to help employees independently action tasks on the tools they operate, without escalating to a colleague or raising a support ticket.

The volume, recency, and content of employee-generated KT activity is a direct proxy for which software is live, deeply embedded, and operationally critical within that organisation.

IntelliFunnel operates RetainIQ within a network of partner accounts, giving us a continuously updated map of actual software deployments.

Why RetainIQ

See What's Installed.
Know What's at Risk.

Installbase intelligence has always been a guessing game, relying on vendor databases, web scrapers, and self-reported surveys that go stale the moment they're published. RetainIQ operates differently.

01
30–60
Days early warning before displacement signals appear publicly
02
100%
Human-sourced signals: not scrapers, not surveys, not self-reported data
03

Continuously updated as employee activity happens, never a static snapshot
The Insight
"A company licensing your competitor's software is not a lost account. A company actively training 40 employees on it is. RetainIQ tells you which one you're looking at."

Pipeline Integration

How It Feeds the Pipeline

Every RetainIQ signal enters the IntelliFunnel Command Center and adjusts the account's composite intent score in real time.

Displacement Opportunity

Competitive Displacement

When RetainIQ identifies that a target account is actively onboarding a competing platform, that signal is escalated immediately. The account enters the active pipeline with a displacement priority flag.

1
KT onboarding spike detected
2
Competing platform identified
3
Signal escalated to pipeline
4
Account flagged as priority
Expansion Opportunity

Expansion Readiness

When an account shows low KT activity and declining adoption on an incumbent tool, that account is flagged as expansion-ready. The signal enters the Command Center with an expansion score.

1
KT activity decline detected
2
Declining adoption confirmed
3
Account flagged expansion-ready
4
Composite score updated
Enter Every Conversation Already Knowing

For clients, this means entering a conversation with an account already knowing what is installed, what is sticking, and what is vulnerable to displacement.
