Find and Verify Leads with the MCP Server

Need to build a prospect list fast? You can use `domain_search` to check domains for potential emails. Then, run `email_finder` against that domain to extract contacts. This whole process happens right inside Claude Desktop. The data doesn't leave your machine until you tell it to. After finding them, `email_verifier` confirms the addresses are real before you add anyone using `add_prospect`.

Manage Your Data and Credits

Keep track of what you're spending with the `get_balance` tool. You can also pull existing leads into your workspace by running `list_prospect_lists`. This gives you a clean view of all available data sources. If you need to deep-dive, use `tech_checker` against a domain name. It reports on what technologies that company runs, giving you context for your outreach.

Get Prospect Details by Email

Don't just trust the email address alone. Use `get_prospect_by_email` to fetch all known information about a contact. This is better than guessing. It pulls in more context—like job title or company details—allowing you to write much sharper, personalized messages directly within Claude Desktop.
