Man, finding the right people for outreach, recruiting, or research can be such a grind. You spend hours, sometimes weeks, manually searching or using expensive tools, and you still might miss the mark.
Well, I just saw this incredible post from an AI professional that might change everything.
The expert found a tool called ‘DeepLookup’ from BrightData, and I think it’s an absolute game-changer. It’s basically ChatGPT, but instead of writing text, its entire job is to find people.
Here’s the simple process the original poster laid out:
- 📌 It’s free. You can create an account in about a minute.
- ✍️ You prompt it. Just like ChatGPT, you tell it who you want to find. The author’s example was “Find all [x people]”.
- 🚀 It scrapes the web. The creator says it scans the whole web in about 15 minutes. Insane.
- 📊 You get an Excel file. It exports a clean list with all the names and profile URLs.
ChatGPT can’t do this. Not even LinkedIn can do this with such ease.
The original poster ran a test that blew my mind: they found every single CMO of AI SaaS companies in the US with a specific funding amount. Think about that. That’s a task that would normally take a team weeks and cost a fortune in software subscriptions.
This is one of those tools that feels like a superpower.
For the full scoop, definitely check out the original post from the expert who discovered this!
