Find current addresses and phone numbers for a list of names

Runs a skip trace on a list of names and writes back verified addresses, phone numbers, and emails.

How the work actually flows

It repeats. Repeats results not ready yet.

Pattern: Structured Loop (21)

The problem it solves

Tracking down someone's current address or phone number by hand means digging through public records, old listings, and social profiles with no guarantee you'll find anything current. When you have a whole list of people to trace, that manual digging can eat up your entire day.

Who it fits

Recruiters, real estate professionals, and investigators who need to locate people at scale.

How it works

  1. You provide a list of names, phone numbers, or emails
  2. The system submits the list to ScraperCity's people-finder service
  3. It checks back periodically until the results are ready
  4. The matched addresses, phone numbers, and emails are written to Google Sheets
What you get

Contact records matched and delivered to you

Submit a list of names and get back matched addresses, phone numbers, and emails written straight into your spreadsheet.

What you get

A spreadsheet of verified current addresses, phone numbers, and emails for each person on your list.

What you need

A ScraperCity account with People Finder access 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.
