If you're leading marketing at a home services brand—kitchen, bath, remodeling, roofing, solar—you already know how critical data is to keeping the funnel moving. You've built strong programs to generate leads, feed the call center, and keep installers busy. But there's always another level of efficiency and ROI to unlock when you have richer context on the households you're targeting.

Think about qualifying appointments in the call center: better data means fewer no-shows, more productive reps, and more installs. That's where Faraday comes in.

The Faraday data platform

To take your efforts further, you don't just need more data—you need the right data, delivered in a way that's immediately usable across your CRM, call center, and campaigns. That's where Faraday's three-part data platform comes in:

  • Identity completion: Fill in the blanks with verified names, addresses, emails, and phone numbers so every record maps to a real household.
  • Consumer data: Enrich your customer records with the Faraday Identity Graph (FIG), which includes over 1,400 responsibly sourced datapoints covering 240M U.S. adults and households. These datapoints span demographics, lifestyle, property, and behavioral attributes that make segmentation, targeting, and prioritization easy—even before layering on custom predictions.
  • Custom predictive datapoints: AI-trained scores built on your own records—like Likelihood-to-Purchase, Best-First-Product, or Credit Score Proxy—so you can prioritize and personalize at scale.

Essential data packages

One way we make the consumer data layer easier to use is by curating industry essential data packages: sets of 20 datapoints that we've determined to be most predictive for your industry. We identify these datapoints using our Faraday predictor leaderboard, which ranks datapoints by their predictive power in each particular industry vertical. For home services, these packages are tuned to help qualify leads, score calls, and prioritize installs.

How they're chosen: We analyze all 1,400+ datapoints in the FIG and surface the ones with the strongest predictive signals for your vertical. That way you get the attributes that matter most, without paying for data you don't need.

How they're delivered: Essential data packages show up just like any other Faraday datapoint—directly appended to your records in your CRM, call center platform, or lead management system in real time through our api or in scheduled batch. No extra setup required.

How they're different: Most data vendors hand you a pile of raw attributes. Faraday packages are curated, validated, and aligned to your outcomes. Our data is high-quality, responsibly sourced, and refreshed regularly—and we take on the work of figuring out what's actually useful for you.
