> Scores accounts on 5 ICP dimensions and assigns tier. Feeds signal-scoring weighting. Trigger with "score [company] on ICP", "tier assignment for [company]", "update ICP matrix", "who fits best in my territory", "ICP score for [company]", or "tier this account".

# ICP Matrix Builder

**Purpose:** Not all accounts are equal. Score them honestly.
Tier 1 accounts get aggressive pursuit. Tier 4 accounts get deprioritized.

**Input:** Research files + ICP description from seller profile
**Output:** `memory/icp-matrix.md` — overwrite monthly (or after scoring new accounts)
**Feeds:** signal-scoring uses ICP tiers to weight signal priority

---

## STEP 0 — Confirm Scope

1. **Score a new account:** "Score [company] on ICP"
   → Read research file or run prospect-research first if no file exists
2. **Full territory scoring:** "Update ICP matrix" or "Score all accounts"
   → Score all accounts in `accounts/` folder
3. **Refresh ICP definition:** "Update my ICP"
   → Re-read ICP from seller profile, discuss changes, re-score

---

## STEP 1 — Load ICP Definition

Read the ICP description from the seller profile (injected at session start).

Parse into scoring dimensions:
- What **industry/vertical** is ideal?
- What **company size** (employees / ARR) is ideal?
- What **tech stack signals** indicate fit?
- What **stage** is ideal?
- What **role** or team structure drives the buying decision?

If the ICP description is vague → ask seller to clarify before scoring.

---

## STEP 2 — Read Account Data

For each account to score:
1. Read `accounts/{account}/account-brief.md` → company snapshot, tech stack, contacts
2. Read `accounts/{account}/research/` → most recent research file
3. If no data exists → note "insufficient data" and run prospect-research first

---

## STEP 3 — Score on 5 Dimensions

Score each dimension 0–20 (total = 100):

### D1 — Firmographic Fit (0–20)
Does the company match on industry, size, and stage?
- 18–20: Perfect match across all firmographic criteria
- 12–17: Matches 2 of 3 criteria
- 6–11: Matches 1 criterion
- 0–5: Outside ICP profile

### D2 — Technical Fit (0–20)
Does their confirmed tech stack create a natural use case for the seller's product?
- 18–20: Confirmed tech stack is an obvious fit
- 12–17: Likely fit based on profile, not yet confirmed
- 6–11: Possible fit but no clear signal
- 0–5: Tech stack confirmed incompatible or no signal at all

### D3 — Timing / Urgency (0–20)
Is there a signal that creates urgency now vs. in 6 months?
- 18–20: Clear forcing function — launch date, funding, leadership change, migration underway
- 12–17: Some urgency signal — active hiring, growth phase
- 6–11: No current urgency, but pain is real
- 0–5: Active lock-in, no forcing function visible

### D4 — Decision Capacity (0–20)
Can they make a decision?
- 18–20: Known champion + economic buyer accessible + clear process
- 12–17: Champion identified but EB unknown, or process unclear
- 6–11: No champion identified, buying process opaque
- 0–5: Gatekept, wrong contact, or known slow/broken buying process

### D5 — Value Match (0–20)
Is the specific pain the seller solves clearly present and important?
- 18–20: Confirmed pain in their words — it's a priority this year
- 12–17: Pain likely based on profile and stage
- 6–11: Pain possible but not confirmed
- 0–5: No clear pain signal, or confirmed different priorities

## STEP 4 — Assign Tier

| Total Score | Tier | Strategy |
|-------------|------|---------|
| 80–100 | **Tier 1** | Pursue aggressively — multi-channel, high cadence |
| 60–79 | **Tier 2** | Worth full outreach — standard cadence |
| 40–59 | **Tier 3** | Lower priority — lighter touch, monitor signals |
| 0–39 | **Tier 4** | Deprioritize — only pursue if inbound or warm intro |

---

## STEP 5 — Save to ICP Matrix

```markdown
# ICP Matrix — Territory Snapshot
*Last updated: YYYY-MM-DD | Scored by: [seller name]*

## ICP Definition
[ICP from seller profile]

---

## Account Tiers

| Account | Tier | ICP Score | D1 Firm | D2 Tech | D3 Timing | D4 Decision | D5 Value | Top Fit Reason | Last Scored |
|---------|------|-----------|---------|---------|-----------|-------------|----------|---------------|------------|
| [Company] | 1 | 88 | 18 | 20 | 16 | 18 | 16 | Series C, 200 engineers, active migration | YYYY-MM-DD |

---

## Tier Summary

| Tier | Count | Strategy |
|------|-------|---------|
| Tier 1 (80+) | | Pursue aggressively |
| Tier 2 (60-79) | | Standard cadence |
| Tier 3 (40-59) | | Monitor + light touch |
| Tier 4 (<40) | | Deprioritize |

---

## Accounts Needing More Data

| Account | Missing | Action |
|---------|---------|--------|
| [Company] | Tech stack, contacts | Run /research |
```

**Save to:** `memory/icp-matrix.md` (full overwrite — current-state snapshot)
