Intent-qualified account (IQA)

Category: ABM

An intent-qualified account (IQA) is a company demonstrating clear research or buying signals around relevant topics. IQAs are identified when aggregated activity across multiple users crosses a defined threshold of engagement.

In ABM and demand generation, IQAs are prioritised for outreach, ensuring sales and marketing resources focus on in-market accounts.

Tracking IQAs bridges intent data and account-based activation, translating digital behaviour into actionable pipeline opportunities.
