Reach buyers when they have active budget

WaffleIQ surfaces AI hiring surges and initiative announcements — the clearest signals a company is ready to spend.

Know the real decision-maker before you reach out

AI buying authority varies by company. WaffleIQ maps whether it's the CTO, CDO, or a dedicated AI lead.

Quick start

Enter your domain. Get a tailored prospect list.

We'll suggest your top targets in under 2 minutes.

Data coverage

AI buyers move fast.
Your data needs to keep up.

AI and automation roles are new, frequently renamed, and rarely well-indexed in legacy B2B tools. WaffleIQ pulls from job postings, conference speakers, GitHub activity, patent filings, and company AI announcements to find the people actually making decisions.
