How to find people who just raised or freed up budget on X
New money changes what a team will buy. A funding announcement, or even someone saying "we finally have budget for this," is a public signal that spend is about to happen. On X, people announce both.
Why it means they're buying
Budget is the thing every outbound tool tries to guess. On X people say it directly. A team that just raised is stacking up purchases; being in front of them early beats being in the pile of cold emails that arrive the same week.
How to find them on X
These searches surface the signal. Save the ones that work for your market and run them daily, the good ones go stale fast.

What to look for
How the money maps to what you sell. A seed round means different buying than a Series B. Match your reach-out to the stage.
How to reach out
Skip the money in the first line, lead with the work it unlocks. "congrats on the round. the teams we work with usually spin up [the thing you do] right around this stage. happy to make it easy if it's on the list." Respectful, not vulture-ish.
Doing it automatically
