Both halves of knowing your buyer

Where your customers are. Who brings them to you.

Data platforms assume you know your buyer. Chatbots pretend to. Know Thy Buyer finds them — and the trust partners who bring them.

Single-shot: one form, one submit — the whole report. Never a wizard.

Blind-tested: KTB beat a generic LLM 5 out of 5 times

01 / 04

Inside the screen: every business that might be your buyer. Noise.

The difference

Everyone else sells you one half.

Apollo, Clay, and ZoomInfo assume you already know your buyer — then sell you data about them. Chatbots give you confident-sounding guesses. Know Thy Buyer is the step they all skip: the determination.

Their half — data about buyers you name

Lists, enrichment, and intent signals about buyers you have to identify first. Useful — if your guess about who buys is right. Founders are routinely wrong.

Both halves — only here

Where your customers are, computed from your market's structure — plus the trust partners whose endorsement actually brings them to you.

Both halves, one report

Where they are — and who brings them.

One report. Every answer. No 40-tab research spiral.

Half one · 01

Where your customers actually are

Buyer personas computed from your market's structure — not imagined, not mirrored from your guess. Each one gets a verdict on whether the evidence supports it.

  • Named personas with roles, pains, and buying context
  • Honest verdicts — including segments the data doesn't support
  • Your hypothesis, tested — never just mirrored back at you
Your hypothesis, tested — not mirrored.
Your audience → verdict: supported, thin, or unsupported.
Founders are routinely wrong about their buyer. The report tests the audience you named against the evidence — and says so with receipts, including the segments the data doesn't support.

Trust partners — who brings them to you

Borrowed trust converts better than cold outreach. Know Thy Buyer enumerates the partners whose endorsement carries your buyers — in three kinds no competitor maps, because it took a real pipeline to find them.

  • Businesses with your customers — who aren't your competitors
  • People your buyers trust — creators, community leaders, key persons
  • Places your buyers gather — groups, schools, churches, industry hubs
Trust comes in three kinds.
BusinessHome-warranty broker — same homeowner as an Austin plumber, zero competition. The natural two-way referral.
PersonNeighborhood investor-group leader — the endorsement every remodeler wishes they had.
PlaceNew-homeowner workshop at the community center — proposed to leadership as a member benefit.

Evidence trails, not black boxes

Every claim traces back to a source you can check. Thin evidence is marked thin — never padded.

  • Source-linked assertions throughout
  • Thin/absent marking where the data runs out
  • No hallucinations — unverified stays unverified
Every claim traceable. Thin marked thin.
42 sources cited in a typical report — every one checkable.
3 marked thin — we'd rather tell you what's thin than fake it.
Zero hallucinations shipped: unverified stays unverified, and the report says so out loud.

The trust-partner framework

Trust comes in three kinds.

A partner isn't just "another business." Trust transfers from three kinds of sources — and Know Thy Buyer is the only tool that enumerates all three, because it took a purpose-built pipeline to find them.

1

Businesses

Companies that have your customers — but aren't your competitors. Same buyer, no rivalry: the natural two-way referral.

A home-warranty broker for a residential plumber — same homeowner, zero competition.
2

People

Creators, community leaders, and key persons whose word your buyers already trust. One endorsement beats a hundred cold emails.

The neighborhood investor-group leader every remodeler wishes they knew.
3

Places

The gathering points where your buyers cluster — trade groups, schools, churches, industry hubs — each with a named occasion and why their leadership would say yes.

A new-homeowner workshop at the community center, proposed as a member benefit.
How it works

One input. Three layers. Both halves.

You describe your business once, on a single form. The system finds where your customers are — and the trust partners who bring them to you.

01

Discover

Half one: your business is mapped against real buyer evidence — where customers actually gather, not where you guessed. The system finds where you actually fit.

→
02

Determine

Who they are, with verdicts. Buyer roles are computed from industry structure and establishment data — each persona rated supported, thin, or unsupported, including the audience you named.

→
03

Deploy

Half two: trust partners in all three kinds — businesses, people, places — ranked with concrete first steps. Export as PDF for humans or JSON for your agents.

Method. Five real businesses — SaaS CRM, plumbing, mushroom coffee, fractional CFO, dental implants. Both sides ran on the same base model; the baseline got a neutral prompt, KTB ran the full pipeline. Reports were judged blind on specificity, groundedness, non-obviousness, actionability, and zero hallucinations. KTB won all five matchups by a mean margin of +7.0 points, with zero auto-fails.
