What each stage means
  1. 01 Find buyers. The product itself finds new people to contact, both by searching for a described audience and from at least one live signal such as post engagement, new followers or hiring. Only one of the two, or search through a LinkedIn Sales Navigator subscription, is Partial.
  2. 02 Check fit. Each found person is checked against your ideal customer before any message goes out, with the reason shown, and you approve or remove them. Filters you set by hand, or a review list without a fit check, is Partial.
  3. 03 Write the messages. AI drafts the outreach from your offer and each prospect's context (profile, company or signal), and you review it before it sends. Generic AI copy, one AI line or rewriting your text is Partial. Merge-field templates alone do not count.
  4. 04 LinkedIn, email and X. LinkedIn, email and X steps send from your own accounts inside the product, in one sequence. Each channel is rated on its own, and one or two of the three is Partial.
  5. 05 Account safety. Every connected sending account is protected automatically with a warm-up for new accounts, daily limits and paced, human-like timing. Only some of these, or limits you set by hand, is Partial.
  6. 06 Handle replies. A reply stops that person's remaining steps, lands in one inbox you answer from, and comes with an AI-drafted answer. An inbox without drafted answers, or drafts without a shared inbox, is Partial.
  7. 07 Run it from your AI. Your own AI assistant can do the work (find or add people, start campaigns, read and answer replies) through an official MCP server, and there is a public API. An API alone, or an MCP server that only reads data, is Partial.

Where each one is stronger.
