Not a sample. Not a statistically representative subset. Every single record is called and confirmed before it reaches you, 100% guaranteed for 75 days, and yours outright on delivery.
A complete solution for B2B data and business information
Everyone in this category talks about accuracy as though it were a quality problem. For the person who owns the budget, it is a cost problem, and the costs are not where most people look.
A seat, a subscription, or a per-record fee. Whatever the model, the money left the building before anyone checked whether the record was true.
Most CRMs and marketing platforms price by contact record. A dead contact occupies exactly the same paid seat in your database as a live one, and it does so for as long as nobody takes it out.
An SDR dials the number, finds it disconnected, researches the account, discovers the contact left eighteen months ago, and does not get that hour back. Multiply by the size of your list.
And a fourth cost nobody invoices you for. Every hard bounce degrades your sender reputation, so the good records in the same send land in fewer inboxes than they should have. Bad data does not just fail on its own behalf. It drags down the records that were fine.
A list that arrives campaign-ready costs you none of that.
Every contact 100% telephone-verified before it reaches you. Nothing to clean, deduplicate, or repair before import. And anything that goes wrong inside 75 days comes back to us rather than to your team.
Every provider in this category says their data is verified. Almost none of them mean every record, and the difference is not a detail; it is the whole product.
Sampling tells you what a batch looks like on average. It does not tell you whether the specific record your SDR is about to dial is correct, and average accuracy is no comfort to the rep holding the wrong number.
We call every contact before delivery. Not a representative subset, not a quality-control callback on a portion of the file. Every one. That is why we can attach a guarantee to every record rather than to a percentage of them.
“What percentage of the records you deliver are verified by a person on the telephone?”
Ask it of us and the answer is 100%, and you can test it: call the numbers in the free sample we build for you. Ask it of anyone else and listen for the qualifier: verified records, quality callbacks, a representative sample. The qualifier is where the percentage hides.
Similar companies, net-new accounts, and whitespace mapping. In-depth company profiles: revenue, structure, strategy, ownership, and custom field research. If the information exists, we find it.
Net-new contacts from your named and target accounts, buying committee mapping for ABM, and tracking where former contacts moved to. Every contact verified by phone before delivery.
CRM refresh, tradeshow and web form completion, and contact append. Every record telephone-verified before it goes back into your system.
Account profiling, technology stack mapping, and competitor installed base research. Evidence-based, not inferred from job postings or website tags.
Permission captured by telephone and confirmed by email, with a voice-recorded consent record retained for eighteen months. Where a contact expresses interest in your offer during the conversation, we pass that straight to your sales team.
Delegate, exhibitor, and sponsor audiences for B2B events, conferences, and trade shows. Built for a specific event in a specific sector, including the specialist industries no commercial database maps.
Every record we deliver meets a published standard called KAT-i Verified. The first three below are what that standard requires. Consent is a separate service, and the fifth panel explains why that distinction matters.
We hold no database, so there is nothing to filter and no product to log into. Enterprise, mid-market, SMB, and the markets where B2B data is scarce.
If the information exists, we find it. If it does not, our feasibility study tells you before you spend anything.
Before delivery, someone at the organisation has confirmed the contact still holds the role, that the title matches your criteria, that the email is correct, and that the phone numbers connect.
Not inferred from a profile. Not constructed from a naming pattern.
If a record does not match your brief, or an email bounces, or a number stops connecting, or the contact moves on within 75 days, send it back.
We replace it or credit it. 100% of what we deliver is covered, with no exceptions and no acceptable error rate.
On delivery the data is your property. Not licensed access that expires with a subscription. We do not retain it, resell it, or fold it into a shared pool, because no shared pool exists.
Opt-in is a separate service, not part of the standard. Where you are marketing into Europe we capture permission on your behalf: telephone, confirmed by email, date-stamped, voice-recorded for eighteen months.
A verified record is accurate. An opted-in record is accurate and carries a consent record. They are not the same thing, and we would rather you knew that before you brief us.
Standard delivery carries fourteen verified data points. Beyond those: tenure in role, the specific area a broad job title actually covers, reporting line, team size, the systems a person owns.
A database gives you its fields. We give you yours.
We are not telling you database platforms are bad. They are good at breadth, speed, and self-service, and most marketing teams should have one.
What they cannot do is tell you whether a record is still true, because nobody ever checked. That shows up three ways: an unclear consent basis you inherit as the controller, pattern-derived addresses that bounce and damage your sender reputation, and coverage that thins to nothing in emerging markets, specialist industries, and the public sector.
Those are structural consequences of how the data is built. They also describe the situations in which our clients come to us.
Five stages. Every one performed by a person. Where desk research cannot surface a contact, the work loops into telephone research and rejoins the flow.
Your criteria become the specification.
Web, desk, and primary sources. Built from scratch.
Checked for missing contacts, roles, or accounts.
Calling into organisations to fill what desk work could not surface. Rejoins the flow.
Every contact confirmed by phone. Role, email, number validated.
Your format, your CRM. Ready to import. You own it permanently.
What arrives: fourteen verified data points per record, covering the company and the contact, plus any custom fields you specify. Direct dials, extensions, switchboards, and mobiles are all verified as working before delivery. We know they connect because we called them.
Enterprise marketing, demand generation and sales teams, including Fortune 500 companies. A selection. The full list and references are available on request.
“The data commissioned is always returned quickly within short lead times and more importantly at a very high quality. Working with KAT-i is an essential tool for our marketing department to deliver high ROI lead generation campaigns.”Rachael C.Head of Marketing
“We find their research approach, project turnaround time and qualified results second to none. We also find their professional, yet personal approach with our clients extremely important.”Neil D.Co-CEO
“Methodical and efficient. Their experience is evident through the results achieved, and KAT-i are always able to handle the pressure.”Julie K.Marketing
Verified against your brief before it reaches you. If a record does not match, we correct it. There is no acceptable error rate.
If a contact changes role, or an email or phone number stops working in that window, we replace it or credit it back.
On delivery it is your property. We do not resell or reuse it, and our own copy is deleted after the 75-day guarantee period.
You do not pay for records that do not work.
Some providers move that risk before the invoice by charging only for records that meet a threshold. Ours sits after delivery and covers more: send back anything that does not match your brief, bounces, stops connecting, or whose contact has moved on inside 75 days, and we replace it or credit it. Either way the record you paid for is a record that worked.
The difference matters because a pre-invoice threshold is set by the supplier and tested once. A 75-day window is tested by your own team, on your own campaign, against your own standards.
One thing most providers won't tell you. Owning data forever does not make it accurate forever. All B2B data decays. We tell you when a list needs re-verifying rather than let you run a campaign against records that quietly stopped being true.
Tell us the market, the company profile, and the roles you need. We map what exists against your criteria and come back with estimated numbers for companies and contacts.
If the universe is there, you know what you are buying before you buy it. If it is not, we tell you, and you have saved a quarter's budget.
Send a requirement brief and we build a real sample against it: typically 20 to 30 telephone-verified contacts, or 3 to 4 accounts fully mapped.
Not a demo and not a redacted extract. Real work against your brief, so you can check it for accuracy, relevance, and fit with your systems.
We scope the full project and share the numbers for your approval. You decide how much you want.
There is no tier to buy into and no seat count to commit to before you know what you need.
Most of what we do is enterprise and mid-market: deeper account maps, cleaner records, and contacts a filtered export missed. The same method, applied to markets that are already well documented, simply produces a better list.
The difficult markets are not the scope of what we do. They are how you know the method holds. Public sector undertakings and government bodies that publish almost nothing. Emerging markets where commercial coverage thins to nothing. Industries too specialised for anyone to have crawled properly, from bridge design to minor league venues. Organisations where the person you need has no web presence at all.
There is no industry we do not cover. If the sector exists, we can research it.
In most of this category compliance is a badge in a footer. For the teams we work with in financial services, healthcare, and enterprise technology, it is the first question procurement asks.
Independently certified for information security management, covering custom B2B list research, marketing information research, data enhancement and sales intelligence. Certificate 305025061778IS, verifiable with the certifying body.
Researched from publicly available sources under legitimate interest, with documented internal rules. No consumer data. No special category data.
Every opt-in date-stamped and voice-recorded for eighteen months. Twelve attempts, then the record is marked no answer, because silence is not consent.
Nothing aggregated, nothing resold, no historical archive accumulates. Client data is retained only for the 75-day guarantee period and then deleted. Consent recordings are held for eighteen months, because a consent record that cannot be produced is worthless.

Ask any provider what percentage of the records they deliver are verified by a person on the telephone. Ours is 100%: every contact, not a sample, not a quality-control callback on part of the file. Most of the category verifies a portion and reports the accuracy of that portion, which is a different claim wearing similar words. Listen for the qualifier: verified records, quality callbacks, a representative sample. And do not take our answer either: the free proof of concept exists so you can call the numbers yourself.
Purchased data is assembled in advance, at scale, for whoever buys it. It is rarely specific to your criteria and nobody has confirmed it is still true. We build to your brief and verify every record by phone before delivery. Most of our clients keep their subscription for breadth and use us where accuracy decides the campaign.
Because you are paying for research, not for access. A subscription charges per seat for records that already exist. We charge per contact because each one is researched and verified for you specifically. The question worth asking is not which is cheaper per record, but what a wrong record costs you in a campaign where being wrong is expensive.
As a benchmark, a well-defined brief in reasonably documented markets typically produces around 10,000 telephone-verified contacts in 4 to 5 weeks. We have delivered considerably more against tight deadlines with additional research capacity. Difficulty affects timelines more than volume does, and double opt-in adds time by design.
Yes. Tenure in role, the specific area a broad job title actually covers, reporting line, team size, the systems a person owns. Tell us what your team needs and we research it to the same standard as everything else. If the information exists, we can find it.
We replace it or credit it back, for a role change, a bounced email, or a phone number that stops working, within 75 days of delivery.
On delivery it is yours, permanently. There is no product database. Nothing is aggregated, nothing is resold, and no historical archive accumulates. Client data is retained only for the 75-day guarantee period and then deleted. Consent recordings are held for eighteen months, because a consent record that cannot be produced is worthless.
Yes, by telephone and confirmed by email, giving a double opt-in specific to you. Every opt-in is date-stamped and backed by a voice recording retained for eighteen months.
