The problem it solves

Finding the right prospects and writing a message that actually sounds like you know their business takes hours per lead. Most outreach gets ignored because it's generic and clearly copy-pasted. You want to send more personalized messages without spending your whole week on research.

Who it fits

Salespeople, marketers, or business owners who want to send personalized outreach at scale.

How it works

  1. You describe who you want to reach, such as an industry, location, or job title
  2. The system searches Apollo and LinkedIn to find matching people and companies
  3. AI researches each company's business, strengths, and recent news
  4. AI writes a personalized LinkedIn opener and a four-part cold email series for each person
  5. Every prospect and their messages are saved to Google Sheets
What you get

Prospects reached with research-backed messages

You get a list of matching prospects along with personalized LinkedIn openers and a four-part email series for each.

What you get

A spreadsheet of researched leads, each with ready-to-send personalized outreach messages.

What you need

An Apify account, a Google Sheets account, and an OpenAI API key.

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.
