  • Smart lead creation and management: Let your agent add new leads, update lead details, or delete outdated entries to keep your Hunter account organized and up-to-date.
  • Company and contact enrichment: Have the agent fetch detailed company profiles or use the Email Finder to infer the best contact email for a specific person at a target company.
  • Leads list organization: Direct your agent to create, update, or remove custom leads lists—making it easy to segment prospects for personalized marketing or sales workflows.
