Where Intakra is different
- Whole-market timing, not just your traffic. Intakra reads public events across your market to find net-new accounts the moment they go in-market.

- Honest by design. No website de-anonymization, no product telemetry, no cookie tracking as signal sources, only public signals you could verify yourself.

Questions
Is Intakra a Clay replacement?
Not exactly. Clay is a build-it-yourself enrichment and orchestration canvas. Intakra is an opinionated, managed timing engine: it reads public buying signals across your market and produces a cited, shareable assessment page per account. Many teams run both, Intakra for timing and the artifact, Clay for deep enrichment.
Can't I just build signal monitoring in Clay?
You can assemble parts of it with enough setup and credits. Intakra ships it managed: continuous public-signal coverage, fit + heat scoring, cited why-now, and the assessment page, without building or maintaining the pipeline yourself.
