Open source 6sense alternative: looot-intent
Score a list of companies for buying intent and buying stage.
The code is MIT open source. The data is not free and not self-hosted: every real run calls looot and pays per call at the catalog price shown before the run.
Short answer
What is looot-intent?
looot-intent is an MIT-licensed web app and CLI that scores a list of company domains from 0 to 100 for buying intent and assigns a stage. Each score lists the signals behind it, the provider for each and what the call cost. The code is open source. The signal data is paid per looot call.
What it does
What looot-intent does and how to run it
Give it company domains and a short ICP description. For each account it calls ten looot endpoints, one per signal: hiring, funding, news, tech stack changes, SEO movement, web traffic, Google ads, LinkedIn ads, Reddit mentions and headcount growth.
It turns the answers into a score and a stage (unaware, aware, considering or deciding) and ranks the accounts. Weights, half-lives and stage thresholds sit in config/intent.config.json, so you edit one file and run again.
There is no model and no hidden constant. Matching uses keyword lists in the config, so the same data gives the same result. A re-run inside the freshness window replays finished calls at no charge.
This is the job that products such as 6sense do.

Data and price
Endpoints it calls, with the live price
Every real run calls these looot endpoints. The price column is read live from the catalog, never typed into this page.
| Endpoint | Used for | Live price |

| predictleads-companies-job-openingspredictleads | Hiring and job ads | reading live price |
| predictleads-companies-financing-eventspredictleads | Funding | reading live price |

| dataforseo-dataforseo-labs-google-domain-rank-overview-live-aidataforseo | SEO movement | reading live price |
| datagma-website-trafficdatagma | Web traffic | reading live price |

| scrapecreators-reddit-searchscrapecreators | Reddit mentions | reading live price |
| companyenrich-companies-workforcecompanyenrich | Headcount growth | reading live price |
Prices are read from the looot public catalog when the page loads. Some endpoints are priced per result, so a run that returns many rows costs more than one call. The CLI dry run prints the exact quote for your input before anything is charged.
Limits
What looot-intent does not do
- It has no first-party visitor tracking, no intent data bought from third-party pools, no CRM sync and no ad orchestration, because looot has no job that supplies them.
- It has no review-site signal. The catalog has no endpoint for G2, Capterra or Trustpilot.
- The score is rules from a config file. The ICP text is stored and shown, but matching uses the keyword lists in the config.
- Traffic and headcount compare against your last run. The first run records a baseline and scores zero for those two signals.
- The LinkedIn ads signal searches by the first label of the domain, which can match the wrong company.
- Response parsing was written from provider documentation and fixtures. The README says it was not checked against a recorded paid response, and every signal is marked unverified in the code.
- The web app has no sign-in. Anyone who can open its URL can start a run up to the cap they type, so keep it on your machine or behind access control.
