Build on truth.
Not guesswork.
Your product is brilliant. But if your market doesn’t get it, you’re burning budget on noise.
We help tech founders validate what actually drives conversions before the rebrand, launch, or next €100k spend.
Consulting
“The result? I can’t wait to pitch and when I do, I close deals. My story is waterproof”
Software & Training
“I should have skipped all those copywriters and strategists and come straight to you.”
Saas
“This approach is an eye opener. We’re doing what works and optimising continuously”
Most B2B teams are still betting six figures on assumptions from last year’s pipeline
You’re not failing. You’re just flying blind.
We help you replace hunches with buyer intelligence that drives ROI this quarter.
What We Do
We uncover what your buyers actually care about, then turn it into messaging, offers, and strategy that drive deals.
No fluff, no hype and certainly no ‘deep’ AI search that every competitor has access to.
Just clarity that converts.
How It Works
Fault Line Audit
Find the cracks before they cost you
Know where your assumptions, messaging, and market reality don’t align, so you can make confident decisions before your next investment.

Why This Works (When Agencies Don’t)
Most teams operate on assumptions, or on truths that expired 75 days ago.
We help you make decisions based on fresh, evidence-based intelligence.
You’re a fit if you:
Run a B2B tech, SaaS, or infrastructure company (€4–15M revenue)
Are about to make a €30–150K strategic bet
Need proof before spending big
Are tired of ‘spray & pray’ marketing
Real Results
-
8 leads and 2 deals before even launching
Our client dropped just a few words in her newsletter pre-launch…
-
First 60, then 120 leads from one webinar.
Based on our research and the brand story and execution of our partners.
-
A sharp message that led to 22.5% conversion
A highly-targeted campaign that can easily be reused.
Why Babelfish
Because strategy isn’t about what you believe. It’s about what your buyers prove every day.
We’re not a marketing agency.
We’re the intelligence layer that makes your marketing and sales actually work.

They’re stuck because they can’t see what makes them brilliant.”

The Cost of Guessing
Every month you wait, you lose:
€10,000+ on ‘maybe this will work’ marketing
Sales cycles that drag for no clear reason
Board trust that quietly erodes
Competitors winning with worse products
You scared shitless that your team is poached
If you’re about to bet six figures on a new direction,
spend €10K to know it’s the right one.
Proof That Clarity Pays Off
Here’s what happens when founders stop guessing and start building on truth
