The problem it solves

Building a lead list means jumping between scraping tools, guessing at email formats, and manually copying everything into a spreadsheet before you can start outreach. It's slow, repetitive work that delays your pipeline.

Who it fits

A sales or growth team that needs a steady, ready-to-use list of leads for outreach.

How it works

  1. Lead data is scraped from your chosen source
  2. Each lead is checked for a missing email address
  3. Missing emails are found through an enrichment service
  4. Enriched and original leads are merged together
  5. The complete list is added to Google Sheets
What you get

Lead lists that arrive complete and ready to contact

Your new leads arrive in Google Sheets already filled in, with missing email addresses found and added automatically.

What you get

A consolidated spreadsheet of leads with verified emails, ready for outreach or CRM import.

What you need

A web scraping account, an email-finder API, and a Google Sheets account.

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.
