Clickbrief
Vol. 1 — Issue 1 — A small workshop

A briefing on every company
you walk into.

Type the domain of the company you're about to meet. We'll hand you back a five-minute read: what they do in plain English, what changed in the last ninety days, a sketch of the person across the table, and three things you can plausibly bring up.

Not enrichment. Not a dashboard. Not an API into your CRM. Just the page you wish someone had handed you twenty minutes before the call.

Invite-only beta · 14-day money-back

From the desk

“The best meetings I've ever had started with twenty minutes of reading the night before. The worst ones started with me opening LinkedIn in the cab.”

— Every consultant, BD lead, and account exec, at some point

Most B2B enrichment products treat “company data” as a grid of fields: headcount, industry, tech stack, revenue band, a score on a 0–100 scale. Useful if you're running a 10,000-account scoring model. Useless if you're trying to be credible in a thirty-minute meeting tomorrow.

What you actually need before a call is a briefing— the kind a colleague who happened to know the company would have written for you. A page of prose. What they really do. What just shifted. Who they hired. What the person across the table actually cares about. And the honest list of things we couldn't figure out, so you ask them yourself instead of bluffing.

That's the only thing this product does. One page. One meeting. Type the domain.

Briefing

ramp.com

Prepared 23 May · sources: 11 · 3 min read
30-min discovery call with the Head of Procurement.

TL;DR

Ramp started as a corporate-card company and is now mostly a finance-team operating system. They just shipped procurement workflows in March and are hiring aggressively for that team — which is almost certainly why this meeting exists.

What they actually do

Ramp sells a bundle of corporate cards, expense management, bill pay, and (newly) procurement to mid-market finance teams in the US. Their wedge is automation: AP runs that took a controller a day take an hour. They charge per-card and on payments, not per seat, which is part of why finance departments tolerate the swap from incumbents like Concur.

What just happened

  • 8 May

    Launched a public API for the procurement product, with examples for Workday and NetSuite write-back.

    company changelog
  • 21 Apr

    Opened a London office; first three EU hires were ex-Stripe and ex-Pleo.

    LinkedIn job postings
  • 2 Apr

    Geoff Charles (VP Product) wrote a long essay arguing finance software is heading toward 'agentic workflows' — the strongest signal yet of where the roadmap is going.

Who you're meeting · Maya Patel

Maya Patel,Head of Procurement Partnerships. Joined from Coupa 14 months ago. Background is implementation, not sales — she values vendors who arrive with diagrams, not slide decks. Posted three times this quarter about wanting fewer 'lite ERP' tools in the stack.

Things you can plausibly bring up

  1. Their public procurement API shipped six weeks ago — ask whether early integration partners are seeing the write-back patterns they hoped for.
  2. Bring up the Workday vs NetSuite split — most of their procurement design choices read as 'NetSuite-first'.
  3. The London office is brand-new; if your product has any EU-specific story, lead with it.

Honest gaps

  • We couldn't confirm whether procurement is still under finance or has its own org. Worth asking in the first five minutes.
  • No public pricing on the procurement product yet — don't volunteer a number.

How it works

Three steps. Mostly the model reading.

i.

Type a domain. Maybe paste a name.

ramp.com is enough. If you have the name of the person you’re meeting, paste that too — we’ll center the briefing on them.

ii.

We read for you, for about a minute.

Their website, their changelog, public press, LinkedIn presence, the last ninety days of news. Then a model writes the briefing the way a sharp analyst would. Not a JSON dump.

iii.

You read it.

In the web app, in your email, or printed and folded into your notebook. Five minutes, before you walk in.

For whom

This is a small product. Built for a particular kind of meeting.

Consultants & advisors

Walking into a client meeting at a company you’ve never worked with before. The briefing buys you back the night-before reading you wish you’d had time for.

Business development leads

First call with a prospective partner, integrator, or counterparty. Show up sounding like you’ve actually been paying attention to their last quarter.

Account executives selling into the enterprise

When the deal is large enough that a briefing per account is worth thirty cents and a coffee, but small enough that you can’t justify an outside research firm.

Founders pitching investors (and vice versa)

Both sides do this badly. A briefing on the partner you’re about to talk to is the cheapest possible respect tax to pay.

Not for you if…
  • · RevOps teams enriching 50,000 accounts a quarter — go use Clearbit or Apollo.
  • · SDR teams sending 200 cold emails a day — the unit economics don’t work.
  • · Anyone who needs verified contact information for outreach — we don’t do that.
What we can & can't do

We'd rather tell you the gaps than fake the data.

We use the public web, professional social profiles, news, and a language model to write the briefing. That covers a remarkable amount of ground. It does not cover everything. Every briefing ends with a section called “Honest gaps” so you know what to ask in person instead of guessing in slack.

We're good at

  • · Explaining what a company actually does, in prose.
  • · Surfacing the last 90 days of meaningful change.
  • · Sketching a person's career arc and public posture.
  • · Inventing three conversation hooks worth opening with.
  • · Saying “we don't know” when we don't.

We're bad at

  • · Finding personal email addresses or phone numbers.
  • · Reading any document behind a paywall or login.
  • · Companies under 10 employees with no public footprint.
  • · Real-time anything — briefings are minutes old, not seconds.
  • · Pretending to be a CRM data source.

Questions

Things people ask before they say yes.

How fresh is the data?
Every briefing is composed when you ask for it, from public sources we pulled in the last few hours. We deliberately don’t advertise “real-time” — it would be a lie, and you’d catch us in the first briefing where a CEO change is two days old.
Where does the information come from?
The company’s own website, blog, and changelog. Public LinkedIn pages. Press coverage and podcasts indexed by the open web. Crunchbase-style profile data where available. A language model writes the briefing from those sources — it does not invent facts when sources are silent.
Is this an API?
Not yet. We thought hard about leading with an API and decided it’s the wrong product for the person doing pre-meeting research. The web app and the email digest are the primary surfaces. If enough customers ask, an API will follow — quietly, in v2.
What about people I'm meeting with?
If you paste a name (or LinkedIn URL) alongside the domain, we’ll center the briefing on them — career arc, current role, recent public posts, the kind of thing they care about. We don’t return contact information and we don’t read anything behind a login.
Is this GDPR-friendly?
We only use information that’s already public on the web. No scraping behind logins. No selling or re-licensing of the data. You can request deletion of any briefing we’ve written about you personally and we’ll honour it within 48 hours.
Can I try one before I commit?
Request access and tell us the company you’re meeting with this week. We’ll send a briefing back, no card required. If it’s useful, sign up. If not, we’ll mind our own business.

“Twenty minutes of reading is the cheapest way to make a meeting go well. We just packaged it up.”
