ContactOut is a B2B contact enrichment platform that finds verified email addresses and direct phone numbers for professionals via their LinkedIn profiles. Connect it to Actionist and your agents can enrich inbound leads, map decision makers at target accounts, batch-enrich large contact lists, and keep CRM data fresh automatically — turning LinkedIn profiles into contactable prospects without any manual research.
Eliminates manual work. Agents eliminate the manual cycle of researching LinkedIn profiles, guessing email formats, verifying contact data, and manually populating CRM records — work that compounds across every team handling prospecting, recruiting, and vendor management.
What your ContactOut agent runs on autopilot
A week of scheduled jobs your Actionist agent will execute on your behalf.
ContactOut × every other app you use
End-to-end automations that span multiple apps — each one a real business outcome.
Inbound lead enriched and routed before the rep sees it
When a form submission arrives with a LinkedIn URL, the agent calls ContactOut to retrieve verified email, direct phone, and current title, updates the HubSpot contact record, posts a summary to the #new-leads Slack channel, and logs the enriched lead to the weekly inbound Google Sheet — all before the SDR's next check.
Time saved for your team — every week, on autopilot

What your team gets back — two angles: what you stop doing manually, and what that's worth.

What your agent runs for you
- Sales90 min / weekManual LinkedIn and email lookup per lead
SDRs spend 5-10 minutes per inbound lead researching the contact on LinkedIn, guessing email formats, and copy-pasting into the CRM — time that compounds across 30+ leads a week.
Sales Agent0 minAgent enriches inbound leads with verified contact data before the SDR sees themWhen a form submission arrives, the agent calls ContactOut in the background and updates the CRM record with verified email, phone, and title — the rep opens a complete lead, not a name and a company.
- Marketing60 min / weekManual attendee enrichment and CRM import
The marketing team manually looks up each attendee on LinkedIn, guesses or chases their email, and copies data into HubSpot row by row — a task that takes hours for a 200-person webinar.
Marketing Agent0 minAgent batch-enriches event attendee lists before follow-up launchesAfter a webinar, the agent submits all attendee LinkedIn URLs to ContactOut batch enrichment, imports verified emails into HubSpot, and triggers the follow-up sequence — all within about a minute of the batch completing.
- Customer Support45 min / weekReactive contact discovery during escalations
Support teams escalating a critical issue often discover mid-incident that the only contact on file has changed roles. Finding a new stakeholder during an active incident adds hours to resolution time.
Customer Support Agent0 minAgent maps full stakeholder contacts for new enterprise accounts on day oneWhen an enterprise account is created, the agent calls ContactOut to identify IT leads, operations managers, and executive sponsors, and writes their verified contacts to the CRM — the support team can reach anyone at the account without asking the main contact to relay messages.
- Human Resources75 min / weekInMail or manual candidate email research
Recruiters spend InMail credits on passive candidates who may not check LinkedIn messages, or manually research work emails by guessing formats and verifying with email validation tools — both slow and unreliable.
Human Resources Agent0 minAgent sources verified candidate emails from LinkedIn without InMail creditsThe recruiting agent calls ContactOut for each passive candidate's LinkedIn URL and returns a verified email address — enabling direct outreach without waiting on InMail response rates or purchasing additional LinkedIn credits.
- Finance40 min / weekSwitchboard and generic email chase for billing contacts
Finance teams pursuing overdue invoices or billing disputes often spend days emailing accounts@company.com with no response, or navigating phone trees trying to reach the right billing contact.
Finance Agent0 minAgent identifies current billing and AP contacts at vendor companies on demandWhen a vendor invoice dispute needs resolution, the agent calls Find Decision Makers with the vendor domain and returns the Finance Director and AP Manager with direct contact details — the finance team reaches the right person without going through a switchboard.
- Operations120 min / weekQuarterly manual CRM data cleanse
Without automated re-enrichment, CRM data decays silently. Teams discover outdated contacts only when an email bounces or a prospect mentions they moved companies — often months after the fact.
Operations Agent0 minAgent runs weekly CRM re-enrichment to detect job changes automaticallyThe operations agent re-enriches stale CRM contacts weekly via ContactOut, compares new data against stored data, and flags job-changed contacts for account owner review — keeping data quality high without a quarterly manual cleanse.
- Legal30 min / weekManual counterparty counsel research before negotiations
Legal teams spend time chasing general inboxes, asking business development contacts to pass along counsel details, or searching for the right counterparty attorney — often adding days to the contract initiation timeline.
Legal Agent0 minAgent identifies counterparty legal contacts within minutes of a deal openingWhen a new contract is initiated, the agent calls Find Decision Makers for the counterparty and retrieves the General Counsel and Legal Director with verified direct contact details, ready for the legal team before the first negotiation call.
