About us

Hello. This is graph8.

We spent ten years booking B2B meetings by hand. Then we made revenue programmable.

graph8 is the operating system for revenue: data, signals, agents, and models that run GTM execution, with people at the center.

Defines the model

Tenbound

Tenbound wrote the Tenbound Standard. In the Programmable Revenue Blueprint, a graph8 engineer sits with one person from each role that touches revenue and writes the plan.

02 / Our story

CIENCE started.

The first client was his own: a regulated financial services product that needed enterprise pipeline, sold to clients like Walmart, Western Union, MoneyGram, Amex, and Amazon. Booking those meetings took headsets, lists, and people, shaped by two decades of building GTM and distribution for startups. In 2018 Thomas moved on to build other companies. The CIENCE team kept running the motion, and kept labeling every outcome.

2016 to 2024

The decade.

CIENCE grows into one of the largest outsourced SDR providers: over 1,000 SDRs working 2,500+ clients across 250+ industries. Outcomes logged and labeled across millions of calls, emails, and meetings. Buyers rated the work 4.4 on average across 7 review platforms.

Selected companies served through CIENCE campaigns before graph8.

122 of those programs are public case studies

CIENCE and Tenbound become part of graph8.

The archive becomes the models.

octa and octa squared are built on a decade of authorized campaign data from CIENCE and Tenbound. New customers' data does not train the model. A customer can opt in to train a model for its own workspace. Models like these were not possible before now, and they do not work without a decade of labeled outcomes to learn from. That is the timing.

03 / The models

What the decade became.

Calls Emails Meetings Replies Deals Outcomes octa The next best action
octa

The GTM model, trained on the decade.

octa decides the next best action for every account: who to work next, when, on which channel, with what message. It is built on a decade of authorized campaign data from CIENCE and Tenbound, across thousands of B2B campaigns. New customers' data does not train the model.

octa Prioritization Timing Channel Message Handoff Learning
octa squared

Six algorithms compounding around it.

Six algorithms that compound the loop: prioritization, timing, channel, message, handoff, and learning, each feeding the next, so every campaign starts smarter than the last one finished.

04 / What we believe

Revenue should be programmable.

People at the center. Automation doing the work. The system watches every signal, enriches every record, and drafts every reply; when a moment turns human, it hands the moment to a person, fully briefed.

The work is complex. The methods should still be visible.

Human Signal Context Campaign Customer Deal Revenue

The system runs the orbit. The human wins the moment.

We believe
  • Pipeline should be designed, not guessed.

    Qualified pipeline is the output of a system you can map, measure, and improve. It is not luck or hustle.

  • Humans still win the moments that matter.

    The system sets up the moment. A trained person still wins the conversation that turns into a deal.

  • Your data is yours.

    The buyer graph you build belongs to you. Accounts, contacts, signals, and outcomes stay yours to keep, export, and walk away with.

  • Proof beats theory.

    We publish research grounded in real execution, drawn from CIENCE campaigns and graph8 workflows, not theory in isolation.

How that shows up in the product
  • No seat tax.

    Add your whole team. Pricing scales with the work the system does, not with how many people log in.

  • Free contact search on every plan.

    Searching contacts and companies is free. Revealing a contact uses a credit.

  • Priced by execution.

    You pay for what the agents run. The work, not the login.

  • Built for handoff to a person.

    The system briefs a person the moment a conversation turns human.

What clients of the group say

"We had four primary criteria for a contact research partner: data quality, contact acquisition at scale, research team support, and ability to build a strong working relationship based on trust."
