EVOLC SIGNALS · SALES PLAYBOOK
Find accounts that changed this week, with your AI agent.
Connect Evolc to Claude or Codex, paste one prompt and get the companies that just started hiring salespeople, opened a leadership role or raised money. Every reason comes with a dated link you can check.

Claude Desktop: follow the config snippet (needs Node.js). Claude.ai in the browser and ChatGPT can't connect yet, because they need a sign-in flow that Evolc doesn't have.
- Paste this prompt, filled in with what you sell and to whom:
Use the Evolc Signals MCP tools (search_signals, get_company, check_accounts). First read https://evolc.com/playbook.md and follow its checking rules. We sell [what you sell] to [your ideal customer, e.g. B2B software companies] in [countries, e.g. SK, CZ, PL, AT, DE]. A good signal for us: [e.g. they are building or growing an outbound sales team]. Find the 10 best accounts to contact this week. For each: company, website, why now with the evidence link and date, and one opening line based only on that evidence. Then list what you dropped and why, one line each.
Agents can read this guide as plain Markdown at evolc.com/playbook.md.
What Evolc gives you
A dated, linked reason to contact a company this week: it started hiring in a function, opened a head-of or director role, raised money, or filed better numbers. Data comes from company careers pages, applicant tracking systems, business registers and news. Coverage is deepest in Slovakia, Czechia, Poland, Hungary, Austria and Germany.
It gives company facts only. Find the people on LinkedIn or in your contact tool after you pick the account. Job history starts on 16 October 2026, so "new" and "first" mean "since Evolc began tracking".
Three plays
Each play is one prompt. Keep the checking lines: they are what makes the list usable.
Weekly prospect list
Mondays. New accounts that just started or grew the motion you sell into.
Using Evolc, find the 10 best accounts to contact this week. We sell [product] to [ideal customer] in [countries]. Good signal: [e.g. SDR/BDR, AE or sales-leader roles, a first sales hire, a Head of Sales opened]. For each: company, website, why now with the evidence link and date, one opening line. Check before you list an account: - open the job or news evidence; drop it if the role is outside our region or is an internship - drop banks, insurers, brokers, retail chains, recruiters and agencies - drop it if the name looks like a code or the jobs belong to another company - tell me what you dropped and why, one line each
Check my accounts
When you inherit a territory, or once a week on your top accounts.
Using Evolc check_accounts, check these accounts for signals in the last 30 days: [paste domains, one per line, or a CSV with name, domain, country] Group them: moved (with evidence), quiet, not found. For quiet accounts with 0 open jobs, say they may not be tracked yet.
Pre-call brief
Five minutes before a call.
Using Evolc, give me a brief on [domain]: what they do, size, recent hiring by function, leadership roles opened, funding and filed financials, each with a date and link. End with 3 questions to ask, based only on that evidence.
Check before you reach out
Raw results are signals, not a finished list. Your agent, or you, should answer these for every account.
- Where is the role?Big companies hire in many countries. Read the city in the job title and drop roles outside your region.
- Is it the right company?Check the website matches the company. Drop names that look like a code or job boards that belong to another company.
- Where is the HQ?Check the website footer before you mention a headquarters. Some countries are still missing or wrong.
- Is it a volume hirer?Bank branches, stores, brokers and recruiters post many sales roles but rarely buy like a software company. Tell the agent to drop them.
- Is the funding real?Open the article and confirm the company, round and amount before you mention them.
- Is "quiet" really quiet?0 open jobs often means Evolc does not read that careers page yet, not that the company stopped hiring.
- Is it a real role?Open the posting: internships, inbound-only roles and freelancers are weaker signals than a full-time outbound hire.
What a good result looks like
On 31 October 2026 we asked Claude for B2B software companies in Central Europe and DACH that are building an outbound team. It made six Evolc calls and returned ten accounts. We opened every evidence link by hand and all ten matched. Five of them:
| Account | Why now |
|---|---|
| SoSafe (DE) | Several SDR DACH roles in Cologne and Berlin, plus a Revenue Enablement Manager |
| JUPUS (DE) | A Team Lead SDR plus SDRs in two cities: a whole team at once |
| fonio (AT) | Nine SDR roles, including Polish- and French-speaking ones, plus sales enablement |
| Ablefy (DE) | Its first SDR role since Evolc began tracking, next to an outbound AE |
| GBTEC (DE) | A BDR for Austria and a Head of Pre-Sales in the same week |
An opening line built only on the evidence: “You’ve posted SDR roles in two cities plus a Team Lead SDR. When the first cohort starts, who owns the sequences?”
