Honest Limits

Last updated: May 2026

Sightline is strongest where it can verify the ground truth: Companies House, FCA Register, ICO Register, business profile evidence, and seller-specific context. It is not a magic database and it does not pretend weak signals are strong ones.

What is strong today

• Regulatory and company-context checks against UK public sources.
• Business and pain synthesis for UK SME sales conversations.
• Seller Lens scripts, especially when the seller provides real writing samples.
• Short, decision-ready briefings designed for sales teams, not analysts.

What is deliberately limited

• The Industry lens is treated as Phase 2 until the dedicated function is complete.
• Competitor context is lifecycle-based inference unless a verified source is supplied.
• Starter and Growth do not include native HubSpot or Salesforce sync at launch.
• Pack outputs are point-in-time. Staleness alerts are a later workflow.

What we will not do

• Use behavioural profiles for employment, credit, insurance, or eligibility decisions.
• Infer special-category characteristics from public profile content.
• Send cold email to sole traders without the right consent route.
• Show per-prospect internal costs or sell volume as the value.

Why this page exists

Serious buyers find the limits eventually. Better that you see them before you pay, while the useful parts are still clear enough to judge.
