Akta in Claude & ChatGPT
Company signals & private-company intel · $0.05 / credit
Akta is the intelligence layer of the mesh: company-level signals — news monitored and summarized by AI, headcount trends, employee and product review sentiment, website-traffic estimates, and social posting cadence — plus structured company data served section by section, so you pay only for the facts you request.
It carries no people or contact data by design. In a sourcing or prospecting workflow it supplies the timing and context: which target companies are growing, what just happened to them, and how their own employees rate them — signals the assistant combines with the people sources that supply the contacts.
What your assistant can do with Akta
- Monitor company news with AI summaries — launches, leadership changes, expansion — as timing signals for outreach
- Track headcount trends: total employees, growth periods, and growth by function
- Read employee-review sentiment as intel on how a company is really doing
- Estimate a company's website traffic, engagement, and traffic sources
- Pull structured company data section by section — firmographics, business model, tech stack, management, strategic signals — paying only for the sections you ask for
- Check product-review sentiment and social posting cadence for a target account

FAQ
What does Akta cost through Scout Mesh?
A credit costs $0.05, and every Akta response reports the exact credits it consumed — so billing is precise rather than estimated. Typical calls: news monitoring ~0.1 credit plus 0.01 per article, headcount trends 2.5 credits, employee reviews or website traffic 1.5 credits, and company-data sections between 0.5 and 2 credits each. Resolving a company or industry name is free.
Is Akta a people database?
No — and that is deliberate. Akta holds company-level signals, not people or contact data. It answers when and why a company is worth approaching; the people sources in the mesh — People Data Labs, Lusha, ContactOut, and the rest — answer who. The assistant pairs the two in one conversation.
Why do trigger signals matter for sourcing and sales?
Timing. A company that just grew its engineering team 30%, shipped a launch, or saw its employee reviews dip is a very different conversation than one picked cold from a list. Trigger signals tell you which accounts are worth touching this week — whether you are selling to them or sourcing candidates from them.
