Find B2B leads on LinkedIn from real buying signals
I built Buska because the best LinkedIn leads were hiding in plain sight: a comment under an industry post, a new VP re-tooling their stack, a founder venting about their current vendor. Buska watches for those moments, scores them by intent, and hands you a short list of people already raising their hand. No mass-DMing, no list-blasting.
Free 7-day trial. No credit card. Live in minutes.
Why LinkedIn buying signals are unlike any other channel
On LinkedIn, the people with budget are the ones talking. A director comments under a popular post that her team is wrestling with the same problem. A founder writes a thread asking peers which tool to pick. These are not anonymous handles, they are named decision-makers with a title, a company, and a reason to buy. That context is what makes a LinkedIn lead worth chasing.
Some of the strongest signals are events, not keywords. When someone steps into a new role or a company starts hiring for a function, the playbook changes and the budget reopens. A freshly hired VP of Revenue almost always re-evaluates the stack in the first quarter. Catching that window beats any cold list, because you are reaching them exactly when the decision is live.
The hard part is that this happens across thousands of posts and comment threads a day, and the good ones scroll past in minutes. Buska reads LinkedIn the way a sharp SDR would, then filters out the noise so you only see the handful of conversations where someone is genuinely in-market.

The LinkedIn signals Buska turns into leads
Fresh patterns we detect every day, each scored for intent and routed to your inbox before the post goes cold.
“Honestly we have the same gap. Our forecasting is held together with spreadsheets and nobody trusts the numbers. If anyone has solved this I am all ears.”
The decision-maker self-identified the exact problem you solve, in public, under a post their network is watching. A helpful reply lands warm.
“Excited to share I have joined Northwind as VP of Marketing. First order of business: rebuilding our demand-gen engine from the ground up.”
A new exec rebuilding a function reopens the budget. The first 90 days are when tooling gets chosen, which makes this one of the highest-converting moments in B2B.
“Can anyone recommend a customer-onboarding platform that does not require an engineer to set up? Reviewing options this week, budget is sorted.”
An explicit ask, a category, a timeline, and a confirmed budget. This is a demo booking that just needs the right person to reply.
“Two weeks waiting on support and our renewal is next month. Starting to look elsewhere. Open to suggestions for something that actually answers tickets.”
A frustrated buyer with a renewal deadline is already evaluating alternatives. You are not selling them on the category, just on you.
“We are hiring three SDRs this quarter to scale outbound. If you know great people in the Berlin area, send them my way.”
A team scaling outbound needs the tools to support it. Hiring posts quietly signal budget and a maturing function worth reaching out to.
“We trialed them last year. Powerful but the pricing jumped after onboarding and the UI is dense. Curious what lighter alternatives people moved to.”
Someone publicly weighing your competitor and asking for lighter options. Reply with substance, not a pitch, and you earn the next conversation.
How Buska turns LinkedIn into a lead source
Four steps, no spreadsheets.
Describe who you sell to
Add your category, your competitors, and the problems you fix. Tell Buska which roles and industries count as your Ideal Customer Profile so the scoring knows what good looks like.
Buska watches LinkedIn for you
We surface public posts and comments that match your signals, including job-change, hiring, and vendor-frustration triggers most teams never catch.
AI scores and ranks intent
Each signal gets an intent score and an ICP match, so a CRO asking for your category outranks a job-seeker name-dropping it. You see the warm ones first.
Save, reply, and follow up
Capture a lead in a click while you browse, then send it to Slack or your CRM. Reply Studio drafts a contextual, human first message so you never copy-paste a pitch.
Built for sales teams, not brand dashboards
Plenty of tools tell you how many times your brand was mentioned this week. Buska tells you who to talk to today. Every signal arrives with a score, an intent type, and the profile context a rep needs to reach out with confidence, so you spend your hours in conversations instead of in a feed.
- Chrome extension for LinkedIn: save a profile or capture a lead in one click while you browse, no copy-pasting into a sheet.
- Intent scoring and ICP match, so a buyer with budget outranks a tire-kicker every time.
- Reply Studio drafts a contextual, non-salesy opener that respects how people actually behave on LinkedIn.
- Routes to Slack and your CRM (HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive) so social-sourced leads land where your team already works.
- One feed across 30+ platforms (Reddit, X, Quora, Hacker News), so LinkedIn is one channel of many, not a silo.
