The problem it solves

You've got a list of LinkedIn URLs but no time to look into each profile and copy out the details by hand. Manually researching even a short list eats up an afternoon, and it's easy to lose track of who you've already looked up.

Who it fits

Sales, recruiting, or marketing teams building lead lists from LinkedIn.

How it works

  1. LinkedIn profile URLs are added to a Google Sheet, with the name left blank
  2. The system finds every row that still needs research
  3. It pulls each person's name, title, company, career history, and recent posts
  4. The enriched details are written back into the same row
What you get

Lead lists filled in with real details

Every LinkedIn link in your spreadsheet gets filled in automatically with the person's name, title, company, and recent activity, ready for your team to work from.

What you get

A fully enriched spreadsheet row for every LinkedIn profile, ready for outreach or lead scoring.

What you need

An Apify account 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.
