DATA AS A SERVICE

Your B2B Data. Continuously Built, Verified & Refreshed.

Stop rebuilding static lists every month. Smart Market Intel operates the data layer behind your sales, marketing and research workflows.

What is Data as a Service?

Data as a Service is an ongoing data partnership. Instead of purchasing a one-time list, you define the markets, companies, people, fields and signals you need. We build the dataset, enrich it, verify it, deliver it and refresh it according to an agreed schedule.

Think of it as an external data team — without the cost and operational overhead of building the entire function internally.

What customers should NOT assume

  • DaaS does not mean every field is guaranteed for every company.
  • Data quality depends on source availability, geography, industry and field type.
  • Phone and email availability varies by market and source.
  • Business signals must be defined precisely; 'intent' is not an unexplained score.
  • Refresh cadence should be tied to actual rate of change in the dataset.

Start with a paid pilot.

500-1,000 records, agreed fields, one delivery, and a review against your quality criteria. If it works, we move it into a recurring monthly feed. Pilot cost credited toward first subscription.
