MeshLine
A practical example
Example: a B2B software vendor compares two 50,000-person segments; one is large but mostly students, the other smaller but 70 percent matching its ICP of mid-size operations managers, so fit, not size, drives the choice.
What to evaluate before investing
- Check whether the tool lets you score fit against your own ICP criteria, not just platform-predicted attributes.
- Verify you can combine first-party data (CRM, product usage) with third-party signals when scoring fit.
- Ask how fit scores are refreshed as customer profiles and markets change.
Limitations and tradeoffs
Fit is a model of judgment, not a fact; scores embed the assumptions of whoever defines the ICP. Revalidate fit criteria against actual conversion and retention data rather than trusting a static score.
