Use cases

Influencer Discovery by Niche

Search “skincare creator”, “travel photographer”, or “sustainable fashion” and get a ranked list of every relevant account Instagram surfaces — with follower counts, engagement signals, and contact info in the Enriched tier. Run multiple keyword variants in one session to cover a niche comprehensively.

Local Business Lead Generation

Combine a role with a city — “restaurant owner Chicago”, “real estate agent Austin”, “wedding photographer London” — and get hyper-targeted local prospect lists. The Enriched tier adds physical address data for accounts that have listed it, making this ideal for field sales teams and local agency pitches.

Recruiting and Talent Discovery

Find freelancers, subject matter experts, and creative professionals by keyword — “ux designer”, “copywriter fintech”, “brand strategist” — and get their public contact info and website links. The Verified tier confirms which emails are live before your recruiter sends a message.
