Search, LinkedIn data and scraping. No extra tools fee.
People search, LinkedIn profile lookups and website scraping come with the MCP - not a separate scraping or enrichment add-on you pay for twice.
Search people
Query 250M people and 24M companies by title, seniority, company, location and more - the same search the app uses.
LinkedIn profiles
Look up people and companies from LinkedIn data and profile URLs, so your agent researches before it writes.
Scrape websites
Map, scrape, crawl and extract pages for ICP research and brand voice - without wiring up a scraping vendor.
Everything your workspace does, in plain language.
Admin and member roles get full workspace control: build campaigns, import lists, launch sending when your plan allows, and triage replies without opening the dashboard.
Search people
250M people and 24M companies, filters, title expansion and import into a campaign.
