The problem it solves

Searching LinkedIn one profile at a time, then guessing at someone's email address, eats an entire afternoon before you've sent a single message. You end up with a handful of leads and no reliable way to reach them.

Who it fits

Recruiters, sales teams, and founders who need to reach specific people directly by email.

How it works

  1. You describe who you're looking for in plain English
  2. The system turns that into a search query and finds matching LinkedIn profiles
  3. AI pulls each person's name, workplace, and context from the results
  4. Hunter.io finds a verified email address for each contact
  5. Every contact and their details are added to Google Sheets
What you get

Prospect lists built from your description

Describe the kind of contact you want and get back a list of matching LinkedIn profiles with verified email addresses.

What you get

A spreadsheet of matching contacts with names, workplaces, verified emails, and context for each.

What you need

Accounts with Hunter.io, Google, and OpenAI, plus 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.
