The problem

Selling to scientists isn't a sales problem. It's a science problem.

In biotech, BD teams sell to scientists who peer-review everything — including outreach. Generic CRM tools weren't built for that. Getting in front of the right scientist means solving three problems at once.

01

Relevance, or rejection

Scientists reject outreach that isn't specific to their research — and most outreach isn't. Generic messaging gets filtered out before it lands.

02

Titles don't tell you the science

"Head of Biology" works on gene therapy at one company and metabolic assays at another. The title tells you rank — never relevance.

03

No idea which route is warmest

Cold email, LinkedIn, a conference, a co-author. Teams guess which path to take with no data on which one actually converts.

The cost of getting it wrong

138 days
Average pharma sales cycle — nearly twice as long as any other industry.

Two months spent on the wrong first contact closes the window before the deal has a chance to open.

How it works

Three layers of intelligence.

Scientific publishing creates a relationship network more accurate and more relevant than LinkedIn for life-sciences sales. Epitope turns it into sales intelligence.

Walk through the product
01

Company scoring

Epitope reads the science — published research, drug pipeline, job postings and news — and combines it with your profile to score how likely a company is to need what you sell.

02

Contact identification

Every researcher is profiled against their full publication record and network metrics. Two people with the same title get very different scores.

03

Path ranking

Epitope maps every route from your network to that contact — ranked across publication relevance, recency, collaboration depth, seniority and tenure. The warmest path wins.

The product

Everything you need before outreach, on one platform.
