Sales technology platforms need better signals than headcount or funding stage to find accounts that are ready to buy. Filtering leads by revenue is critical. 

When tracking sector performance, market intelligence teams rely on more than headlines. Growth trends grounded in revenue reveal what’s really happening beneath hiring spikes and funding rounds.

For tech teams selling HR enterprise solutions, revenue is a key indicator of buying capacity. A fast-growing company might look like a fit, but without the budget to match, it’s not a qualified prospect.

All of these workflows depend on one input: reliable company revenue data. And in each case, the use case breaks without it.

Sourcing companies' financial information: the challenges

For private companies, revenue data isn’t public by default. There’s no single source that covers the global private market, and most financials aren’t filed unless a business operates in a jurisdiction that requires disclosure. Even then, data is often delayed, partial, or filed in formats that aren’t usable at scale.

Most aggregators fill the gaps with estimates or modeled data. The quality depends on the signals used: employee count, industry, funding stage, location. Some of it’s useful. Some of it introduces more noise than insight.

All of this makes it difficult to source revenue data that’s accurate, timely, and scalable, especially if you're working across markets or need consistent inputs for segmentation, modeling, or automation.
