Reaches Valuation of $5.2 Billion

6sense closed on two rounds of funding in FY2022. In March 2021, the company closed its Series D funding round of $125 million, with D1 Capital Partners being the lead investor with participation from Sapphire Ventures, Tiger Global, and the company’s existing investor, Insight Partners.

In January 2022, the company announced it had closed $200 million in a Series E funding round, more than doubling the company’s valuation to $5.2 billion. This round was co-led by new investors Blue Owl and MSD Partners and included the addition of investors SoftBank Vision Fund 2, B Capital Group, Franklin Templeton, and Harmony Partners. Existing investors Insight Partners, Tiger Global, D1 Capital Partners, and Sapphire Ventures also participated.

Acquisitions Showcase Industry Leadership

To reaffirm the company’s commitment to lead the RevTech revolution, 6sense made three significant acquisitions. The first was AI-based revenue intelligence platform Fortella, which,  with the 6sense platform, adds essential pipeline planning, forecasting, and measurement capabilities to further empower B2B marketing leaders to achieve their pipeline and revenue goals with greater predictability.

6sense also acquired Slintel, the leading provider of business-driven technographic data, buyer and market insights, and modern business contact data. This acquisition positioned the company to provide the most comprehensive B2B buyer intelligence and AI-powered insights available in the market.

And finally, most recently, the company acquired AI-driven email marketing platform Saleswhale, extending the engagement channels available in the 6sense platform.

Platform Enhancements and Expanded Ecosystem

In early 2021, 6sense leaders committed to accelerating their already aggressive product roadmap, executed against their vision, and have delivered significant value to customers through several product, platform, and partner enhancements:

  • Funnel Insights Reporting allows marketers to assess the health of their revenue generation funnel, with the ability to drill down into each funnel stage to diagnose performance gaps and identify the most effective activities leading to revenue growth.
  • The new Recommended Actions Dashboard elevates immediate, impactful actions for sales teams to take, reasons to take them, and makes it easy to do so with a couple of clicks saving hours of manual research and removing the guesswork for sales teams.
  • Slintel has been added as a technographic and contact data provider within the 6sense platform. The AI combines various sources to identify the unique digital signatures of technologies companies use, allowing Slintel to produce exceptionally accurate and deep technographic profiles. 6sense customers can now leverage this data in segment filters to indicate the “Technology Used” at target accounts.
  • The addition of native intent data from Bombora, G2, and TrustRadius, demonstrates 6sense’s commitment to powering the revtech engine with the most extensive buyer intent data.
  • During FY2022, 6sense expanded relationships with its robust and growing ecosystem of partners, including Bombora, Drift, G2, Mediafly, PathFactory, TrustRadius, Salesloft, and others.
  • Customers benefited from more than 50 meaningful updates to the 6sense platform over the past year.
