Pull LinkedIn search results straight into a Google Sheet

Submit a LinkedIn search link and the system exports every result into an organized Google Sheet for you.

How the work actually flows

It repeats. Repeats rechecks export status; runs once per one per search result.

The problem it solves

Copying LinkedIn search results into a spreadsheet by hand is slow and error-prone, especially for long lists of prospects. Exporting from LinkedIn's different search tools each works a little differently, which adds extra hassle. You just want a clean list to work from.

Who it fits

Recruiters or sales teams who build prospect lists from LinkedIn searches.

How it works

  1. You submit the URL of a LinkedIn search results page
  2. The system detects which LinkedIn tool the search came from
  3. The results are exported and the export job is tracked until it's finished
  4. The completed data is transformed into a usable format
  5. Every result is added to your Google Sheet automatically
What you get

Prospect lists ready the moment you search

Paste a LinkedIn search link and get every result organized in a spreadsheet, ready for your team to work from.

What you get

A Google Sheet fully populated with your LinkedIn search results.

What you need

A LinkedIn account with search 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.
