What is 6sense?
6sense is an account intelligence platform that uses AI to predict which accounts are in-market for your product before they fill out any form. Cookieless tracking across the web identifies anonymous research activity at known accounts, then surfaces that activity to your sales team.
So the AI does what was previously impossible: tell you that a VP of Marketing at a specific company has been researching your category this week, even if she hasn't visited your site. The signals come from a graph of third-party content consumption, search behavior, and ad engagement.
The use case is named-account B2B sales. For sales motions where you know your target accounts (top 500 enterprise, named territories per rep), 6sense tells you which of those accounts to prioritize this week based on observed buying behavior. Without that signal, prioritization defaults to gut feel.
Common workflows by role:
- Enterprise sales reps prioritize their named-account lists based on weekly heat
- Demand gen targets ads at accounts showing in-market signals
- ABM programs orchestrate multi-channel campaigns against heating accounts
- Marketing ops scores leads with 6sense data layered on first-party behavior
- Revenue operations connects pipeline outcomes back to account intelligence signals
Plus the platform layers on ABM orchestration features:
- Account scoring with AI-driven heat indicators
- Segmentation by industry, technology stack, or buying stage
- Ad targeting at the account level across major platforms
- Sales alerts when target accounts show high-intent behavior
- Dashboards showing which named accounts are heating up
A few specifics worth knowing:
- Cookieless tracking is the technical foundation, important post-iOS-changes
- Third-party content, search, and ad engagement all roll into one signal graph
- Account scoring uses your historical close patterns to weight signals
- Integration depth with Salesforce and HubSpot is enterprise-grade
Where 6sense fits best:
- B2B companies with named-account ABM motions
- Enterprise sales where deal sizes justify enterprise tooling
- Organizations with mature marketing-sales alignment
- Programs where account intent matters more than lead volume
Plus the orchestration layer means marketing actions trigger off intent signals automatically:
- Ad spend redirects toward heating accounts
- Sales alerts fire when target buyers show high intent
- Content recommendations adjust based on what accounts are consuming
- Segmentation updates as accounts move through buying stages
Now, for pure inbound or SMB sales motions where named-account intelligence doesn't apply, simpler analytics give better ROI per dollar. 6sense assumes a named-account model with significant deal sizes. If your motion is volume inbound, the platform is over-built for the use case.
Enterprise pricing on custom annual contracts, scaling by total addressable accounts tracked, user seats, and feature tier access.
Best for B2B companies with named-account ABM motions and deal sizes large enough to justify enterprise tooling. Not ideal for pure inbound or SMB sales motions, where simpler analytics give better ROI per dollar.
