The problem it solves

Researching every target account before you reach out takes real time, and most reps end up skipping it and sending generic emails instead. That hurts reply rates and makes outreach feel like a numbers game instead of a real conversation.

Who it fits

Sales teams and agencies running targeted B2B outreach who want research-backed emails without the manual grind.

How it works

  1. You add leads to a Google Sheet
  2. The automation enriches each company with industry, tech stack, and revenue data
  3. AI analyzes the data to find pain points and personalization angles
  4. It writes a personalized email and updates the sheet with a ready-to-send Gmail link
What you get

Leads reached with research-backed, personal emails

You get a personalized outreach email for each lead in your spreadsheet, backed by company research, ready to send from Gmail.

What you get

Enriched company research and a personalized draft email for each lead, tracked in Google Sheets.

What you need

A Google Sheets account, a Sona account, an OpenAI account, and a Gmail 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.
