The problem it solves

Your contact list is full of emails you are not sure still work, and researching each person's job title and company by hand is a slow grind. Sending outreach to bad addresses hurts your sender reputation and wastes your team's time.

Who it fits

Sales and marketing teams preparing outbound lists or cleaning a CRM before a campaign.

How it works

  1. A new or updated row appears in your Google Sheet of contacts
  2. Each email address is checked for validity and given a confidence score
  3. Valid, high-confidence emails are enriched with the person's name, job title, company, and location
  4. The results are written back into the matching row
  5. A Slack summary reports how many were checked, valid, and enriched
What you get

Contacts filled in with title and company

You get your contact list checked for valid emails and automatically filled in with job titles, companies, and locations.

What you get

An updated contact spreadsheet with verified, enriched profile data, plus a Slack summary of the results.

What you need

A Google Workspace account, an email verification service, a contact enrichment service, and a Slack workspace.

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.
