Approving accounts and contacts is one of the most important actions you can take in Stairoids. Every time you approve a company or a person, you teach the system what good looks like — and help it focus on the companies and decision-makers that matter most to you.
This article explains what happens when you approve, why it matters, and how to do it efficiently.
✅ What Does “Approve” Mean?
When you approve an account or contact in Stairoids, you’re saying:
“This fits our Ideal Customer Profile (ICP). Keep it in focus, and prioritize its signals.”
🧠 Why Approval Trains the System
Stairoids is a self-learning system. Every approval helps:
-
Identify your preferred industries, company sizes, and personas
-
Improve Intentional Wire Scoring across future accounts
-
Filter out noise by surfacing only similar and relevant leads
-
Build your Approved Feed, Suggested Tasks, and outreach lists
💡 Approving both accounts and contacts helps refine learning on two levels — company and individual.
👤 Approving a Contact
When you approve a contact:
-
That person becomes part of your active buying unit
-
Their engagement is tracked and scored in your task feed
-
You can reach out via one-click LinkedIn, email, or WhatsApp
-
You can heart ❤️ the contact to further define your ideal personas
The more contacts you approve and heart, the better Stairoids predicts who matters — even for new companies you’ve never seen before.
🧠 Example: After 100+ hearted contacts, the system can auto-identify your typical Decision Making Unit (DMU).
🏢 Approving a Company
When you approve a company:
-
It moves from Unassigned to Approved
-
Its signals are scored and displayed in your feed
-
The system will suggest new contacts from that company
-
You’ll get tasks and alerts when intent increases
You can also assign custom labels to approved accounts (e.g., “ABM Tier 1” or “Channel Partner”).

🔁 Bulk Approve Using Filters

“Contacts who viewed your profile and liked a post”
Then bulk approve them from the list.
