Company Value Proposition

The core messaging for a given company (pain points targeted, benefit, etc.)

The Company Value Proposition insight provides information about a company's unique selling points, the pain points they address, and the benefits they offer to their customers. This insight can be retrieved using the company's domain URL, the company's LinkedIn URL, the contact's LinkedIn URL, or the contact's email address.

🚧

Note: the only current available parameters for generate-insights are contactEmail and contactLinkedinUrl.

  • The system will pass back an array of insights, ranked by relevance.
  • The below documentation still accurately covers our schema, and demonstrates what might exist in that array.
  • Soon, you'll be able to specify certain insight types in your API request. Coming Q3 2024.
