CIENCE: management plus SDR capacity at cost
B2B companies that need coordinated multichannel pipeline generation: and want intent data, LinkedIn, and programmatic advertising included rather than purchased separately: choose the CIENCE ecosystem. Teams that plan to scale SDR headcount choose CIENCE specifically for Talent Cloud's at-cost hiring model, which removes the agency markup that compounds as teams grow.

Best fit
Hit Rate Solutions
Hit Rate Solutions is best suited for US-based SMBs in insurance, real estate, or similar high-call-volume verticals that need affordable offshore phone coverage and can supply their own prospect lists. Buyers whose primary constraint is outbound call cost rather than multichannel pipeline strategy will find the $7 to $8/hour rate structure difficult to match domestically.

Lowest published pricing in the offshore call center category at $7 to $8/hour, making phone coverage accessible to owner-operated SMBs with limited outbound budgets
24/7 operational availability across US, Canadian, and Australian time zones, which is practical for businesses needing after-hours inbound coverage or real estate lead response
Vertical focus on insurance and real estate gives agents working in those fields a vendor with demonstrated, specific experience in those call scripts and buyer personas
Does not offer a proprietary AI platform or intent data layer: campaign targeting relies on client-supplied lists rather than signal-based audience intelligence
Does not provide LinkedIn outreach or programmatic advertising, limiting outreach to phone, email, SMS, and chat without coordinated multichannel sequencing
Does not have an affiliated research or methodology organization; campaign design is not informed by dedicated SDR industry research the way CIENCE campaigns are through Tenbound

The source page positions CIENCE as a three-part ecosystem: CIENCE for managed execution, graph8 for the GTM platform, and Tenbound for research, training, and sales development method.

01
graph8 is built into every CIENCE engagement at no extra cost, providing intent data and audience intelligence that Hit Rate Solutions does not offer: buyers avoid a separate $15,000 to $30,000 annual data vendor purchase
02
CIENCE Talent Cloud hires SDRs at cost with no agency markup, versus the standard 30 to 50% agency margin embedded in offshore BPO hourly rates, giving scaling companies a more transparent cost structure as headcount grows
03
Multichannel orchestration across email, phone, LinkedIn, and programmatic ads runs in coordinated sequences through graph8: not parallel single-channel efforts, which is the structural limit of a phone-first BPO model
04
Tenbound's SDR research and training methodology backs campaign design for CIENCE clients: the only lead generation company in the market with an affiliated research organization publishing dedicated sales development data

B2B companies that need coordinated multichannel pipeline generation: and want intent data, LinkedIn, and programmatic advertising included rather than purchased separately: choose the CIENCE ecosystem. Teams that plan to scale SDR headcount choose CIENCE specifically for Talent Cloud's at-cost hiring model, which removes the agency markup that compounds as teams grow.
Comparing Hit Rate Solutions to the CIENCE ecosystem means comparing a single-channel offshore call center to a three-part system: CIENCE for execution, graph8 for AI-driven campaign intelligence, and Tenbound for research-backed sales development methodology. Three gaps are particularly significant for buyers evaluating this match.
First, technology platform. Hit Rate Solutions operates with no disclosed proprietary platform. CIENCE includes graph8 at no extra cost: an AI layer that delivers intent data, audience intelligence, and multichannel campaign orchestration across email, phone, LinkedIn, and programmatic ads. Buyers who purchase intent data separately through vendors like Bombora or ZoomInfo typically spend $15,000 to $30,000 per year before any execution begins.
Second, channel coverage. Hit Rate Solutions is primarily a phone operation with supplementary email, SMS, and chat. The CIENCE ecosystem runs coordinated sequences across email, phone, LinkedIn, and programmatic display simultaneously. For B2B buyers whose prospects require multiple touchpoints across channels before responding, a phone-only vendor introduces structural ceiling on reach.
Third, research backing. No other lead generation company in this market has an affiliated research and training organization. Tenbound publishes dedicated SDR industry research and training methodology that informs how CIENCE campaigns are built. Hit Rate Solutions offers no equivalent research foundation.
The capability Hit Rate Solutions cannot replicate: graph8's intent signal layer, which identifies in-market accounts before outreach begins and routes them into the appropriate multichannel sequence automatically.

01
Hit Rate Solutions publishes tiered pricing starting at $7 to $8 per hour. Monthly packages include approximately 80 hours for $640/month, 160 hours for $1,120 to $1,200/month, and virtual assistant packages from around $480/month. The minimum project size is $1,000. These rates reflect offshore Philippines-based labor. CIENCE pricing varies by service type: Talent Cloud SDR hiring is structured at cost with no agency markup, which changes the total cost math significantly for companies hiring multiple SDRs. CIENCE also includes graph8's intent data and campaign platform in the engagement, which buyers would otherwise purchase separately from a data vendor.
02
Hit Rate Solutions is a Philippines-based BPO call center focused on phone outreach, appointment setting, and virtual assistant work for SMBs in insurance, real estate, and adjacent verticals. The CIENCE ecosystem is a three-part system: CIENCE handles outbound and inbound SDR execution, graph8 provides the AI platform with intent data and multichannel orchestration built in at no extra cost, and Tenbound backs the methodology with dedicated SDR industry research. Hit Rate Solutions operates primarily via phone with no disclosed proprietary platform. CIENCE runs coordinated sequences across email, phone, LinkedIn, and programmatic ads using graph8's signal layer to identify in-market accounts before outreach begins.
03
Hit Rate Solutions does not publicly disclose its contract terms. CIENCE offers month-to-month engagements, which reduces commitment risk for buyers testing outbound programs or scaling incrementally. Combined with a 14-day setup timeline and the graph8 platform included at no additional cost, the CIENCE ecosystem is structured for buyers who want flexibility alongside enterprise-grade campaign infrastructure.
04
Hit Rate Solutions does not disclose a proprietary technology platform. Campaign execution appears to rely on client-supplied lists and standard call center tooling. graph8, built into the CIENCE ecosystem at no extra cost, provides intent data to identify in-market accounts, audience intelligence for targeting, and multichannel campaign orchestration across email, phone, LinkedIn, and programmatic advertising. For buyers who would otherwise need to purchase a separate intent data subscription: typically $15,000 to $30,000 annually from vendors like Bombora or ZoomInfo: graph8's inclusion changes the total cost comparison significantly.
