Industrial mid-market

Others ask which companies exist. We ask which ones actually match your profile.

A machining shop with five-axis capability and IATF 16949 is not a filter in any company database. Those facts live on the website, in the quality PDF, in the imprint. That is exactly where we read, company by company.

What we read for every company

  • Product and process pages, including PDF documents
  • Certifications verbatim: ISO 9001, IATF 16949, EN 1090, ISO 13485
  • Machine park and manufacturing depth, wherever the company states it
  • Imprint, commercial register, financials and headcount
  • Named contacts with their role, instead of an info@ address

What we filter out, and why

Distributors and agencies without their own production, industry portals, companies outside your size band, competitors. You see not only the matches, but also what was excluded and the reason for it.

That is the difference between a list you have to believe and a list you can verify.

The knowledge base grows with every search

Whatever has been verified once stays: company profile, certifications, contacts, sources. The next search in the same industry does not start from zero, but on what is already verified.

That is why the result for our niche gets better over time, not just bigger.

Software or finished list, whichever you prefer

Search yourself: You describe your target profile in the assistant and work with the lists inside the tool.

Have it delivered: You give us the profile, we handle research and enrichment and deliver the finished list. On an ongoing basis if you want.

The result

This is what a matching hit looks like.

Einschätzung

Neue Halle, gewonnene Ausschreibung und die offene QS-Stelle fallen zeitlich zusammen. Das deutet auf eine Kapazitätserweiterung mit steigenden Prüfanforderungen hin, und der Fremdanbieter in der Messtechnik macht daraus eine Wechsel-Gelegenheit.

5 E-Mail-Entwurf aus den belegten Signalen

An: Dr. Katharina Vogt · Subject: Ihre neue Halle und die QS-Stelle

Sie bauen gerade 1.400 m² Fertigungsfläche auf und suchen parallel einen Leiter Qualitätssicherung. Genau in dieser Reihenfolge entsteht der Engpass, den wir sonst erst sechs Monate später sehen.

Da Sie in der Messtechnik bislang auf eine Fremdlösung setzen, würde ich Ihnen gern zeigen, wo ein Zweitgerät den Ausfall absichert, ohne Ihren bestehenden Prüfprozess anzufassen.

Hätten Sie kommende Woche 15 Minuten für ein kurzes Gespräch?

05: Signal Monitoring

Know when someone is ready to buy.

Companies announce investments, certificates and expansion publicly, on their own website under /press and /news, in the commercial register, in job postings. Kodo reads along systematically and links every signal to its source.

New decision-maker

Which signals Kodo detects

Decision-maker change

New leadership = new supplier check

Expansion & construction

New locations, halls, markets

Funding & growth

Fresh capital = buying readiness

Patents & certificates

New technology, new audits, new demand

Why a list database can't do this

01

Source per lead. Every signal links to its evidence: press release, register entry, job posting. Verifiable, not just claimed.

02

Live from the company website. Not from last year's lists: straight from what the company publishes itself today.

03

knowledge graph. Every analysis feeds into a growing DACH company graph, every next search becomes faster and more precise.

01: The problem

Every alternative has one crucial catch.

Before Kodo was created, we tried all the options, and each one fails in the same way.

International databases (Apollo, ZoomInfo)

Strong platforms, for the US market. DACH data is incomplete, commercial registers unknown, SMEs not represented.

DACH platforms (Echobot, Dealfront)

DACH data available, but no AI analysis, no market reports, no signal tracking. Expensive, and still no real intelligence layer.

Strategy Consulting

Consultant quality, but €15,000+ and 3 weeks lead time per analysis. No live signals, no scaling, no self-service.

Kodo

The Consultant in a Box

DACH data + AI analysis + live buyer signals, in one tool. What a consultant delivers in 3 weeks, Kodo delivers in 20 minutes. Fully automated, scalable, no onboarding.

Unlike Apollo or ZoomInfo, Kodo doesn't buy stale US-database addresses, and unlike Echobot or Dealfront, Kodo crawls every company website and PDF brochure live and reads out machine parks, processes and certificates. Generic firmographics databases structurally cannot capture that.

FAQ

Common questions before you start

What sales leaders scaling with Kodo today ask.

Who is Kodo Leads for?

Kodo Leads is built for B2B sales teams in mechanical engineering, plant construction and industrial companies: wherever prospects must be qualified by technical criteria. Kodo crawls live websites and PDF documents, detects products, applications and certificates, and scores leads automatically against your ICP.

What is the difference between Kodo Leads and generic B2B databases (e.g. Echobot, Dealfront)?

Kodo Leads crawls live websites and PDF documents and extracts technical content, products, processes, applications and certificates, that generic databases structurally cannot capture.

Is Kodo Leads GDPR-compliant?

Yes, absolutely. Kodo Leads works exclusively with publicly available information collected from company websites, public directories, PDF downloads, and the European commercial register. We maintain a compliant architecture entirely without questionable US data brokers.

When is the switch to the software worth it?

As soon as your sales or procurement team wastes more than 20 minutes per lead on manual research (clicking through websites, hunting imprints), you're burning money on inefficient processes. Kodo Leads cuts that 45-minute effort to under 2 minutes per target through live pre-qualification.

Stop searching for needles in haystacks.

Identify exactly those companies that really need your industrial value creation in 15 minutes.
