Lead research and outreach for people who sell
Find companies with a reason to buy. Contact the right person. In your voice.
Lead Scout begins with the product you sell and searches for companies showing current evidence that they may need it. Then it identifies the correct contact and drafts personalized outreach – no CRM, no sequences, no bells and whistles.
What makes Lead Scout different
Most tools give you people who match filters. Lead Scout gives you companies with a reason.
Reason before recipient
Lead Scout qualifies the company first using observable public evidence. You only see the person to contact after the reason is credible.
Evidence you can read
Every lead includes the signals, sources, and confidence level so you can decide whether it deserves your time.
Outreach in your voice
Upload a style guide and writing samples. Lead Scout drafts a subject line and email that sounds like you – editable before you send.

From product to sent email in six steps.
Describe your product
Tell Lead Scout what you sell, who it helps, and the outcome you provide.
