Getting Started as a Buyer

Welcome to SIE Data. This guide walks you from signup to your first revealed intent signal in about ten minutes.

What you'll learn

  • How to create your buyer account and verify email
  • What the onboarding wizard collects (and why)
  • How to connect your first outreach channel
  • How to reveal your first matched intent signal
  • Where credits come from and how to track them

Step 1: Sign up

Visit app.siedata.dev/signup, choose Buyer as your role, and confirm your email. You'll land in the dashboard with 50 free reveal credits.

Step 2: Onboarding wizard

The wizard asks three quick questions: your industry, your ideal customer profile, and your monthly outreach volume. We use this to recommend signal categories — for example, plumbing contractors hiring estimators or HVAC owners renewing equipment leases. You can edit your answers later under Settings.

Step 3: Connect your first channel

Pick the place you want to reach buyers — email (Mailchimp, Klaviyo), CRM (HubSpot, Salesforce), or web analytics (GA4). Click Connect, complete the OAuth handshake, and SIE will use that channel for delivery. See OAuth Setup for the supported list.

Step 4: Reveal your first signal

Open Signal Inbox. You'll see matched signals with masked company names and an intent summary. Click Reveal to spend credits and unlock the full record (company, contact, signal context). Every reveal is logged to your audit trail.
