The problem it solves

Researching what a company actually does, who they sell to, and how they position themselves means digging through their website and piecing it together yourself, one company at a time. When you have a long list of leads or partners to qualify, that research alone can take up your whole day.

Who it fits

Sales and business development teams who need to qualify or research a long list of companies quickly.

How it works

  1. It reads the list of companies from your Google Sheet
  2. It scrapes each company's website for relevant content
  3. AI analyzes the content to figure out their business area, offer, value proposition, and ideal customer
  4. It flags any company where the information found was insufficient or didn't match
  5. It writes the findings back into the spreadsheet
What you get

Companies you understand before the first call

Every company on your list gets researched online, with their business model, offer, and ideal customer written back into your spreadsheet.

What you get

A filled-in spreadsheet with each company's business model, offer, and target customer summarized.

What you need

A Google Sheets account, an OpenAI API key, and a ScrapingBee account for web access.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
