Research & Prospecting Agents
Your reps walk into every account already knowing the story.
Prospecting agents that do the hours of research your reps don’t have time for. They build target lists, map the buying committee, watch for trigger events and write the brief and first line, so humans spend their time selling.
Quick answer
What is an AI prospecting research agent?
A prospecting research agent does the account research SDRs normally do by hand: company priorities, the buying committee, trigger events and a cited reason to reach out. It writes its findings to the CRM or sequencing tool so reps send fewer, better-targeted messages. It supports human SDRs rather than replacing them.

Pairs well with
Agents that share the same context
Voice Agents
Inbound and outbound calling agents that qualify, book, follow up and hand off warm to your reps.
ExploreChat Agents
Website, in-app and messaging agents that answer, qualify and book meetings while buyers are still on the page.
ExploreEmail Agents
Agents that work your inboxes: reply handling, signal-triggered outreach, follow-ups and shared-inbox triage.
ExploreIs this an “AI SDR” that replaces our team?
No. Fully autonomous outbound tends to fade fast and hurt domains. We build agents that do the research and drafting so your SDRs can send fewer, better touches.
Which data providers do you use?
Whichever you already license, plus a waterfall across providers where coverage matters. We keep the configuration in your accounts.
