How the Contact Research Agent Works For Both You and Your Candidates

The Contact Research Agent is designed to deliver for the team running it and for every lead going through it. A new contact arrives and by the time you open the record, the research is already done — background, role, franchise history, and a structured summary waiting for you.

YOUR EXPERIENCE

Open every lead already knowing who you’re talking to

Every new contact is researched automatically, fields are updated only where verified, and a structured summary is waiting on the record before you ever reach out.

CANDIDATE’S EXPERIENCE

Every candidate gets a first conversation that feels informed

Every candidate gets a first conversation that’s already informed — no fact-finding, no repeated questions, just outreach that signals you did the work before you reached out.

Meet Your Always-On AI Contact Research Assistant

We’ve built the Contact Research Agent specifically for franchise sales workflows, not a generic data enrichment tool, but an agent that searches the web, evaluates what it finds, and updates your CRM with only what it can actually verify.

This agent researches contacts automatically:

Searches the web for every new or existing contact
Suggests field updates only where confidence is high
Leaves a structured research summary on the contact record
Logs every field change with the old value and new value
Enforces a 90-day cooldown for any duplicate research

Plug the agent into any workflow:

Sign-up form completes, research starts before you look
Email parsed, agent fires the moment contact creates
Any trigger you set, the agent will follow
Leads overnight arrive enriched and ready by morning
Every contact researched the same way, every time

Manual Contact Research Costs You Time

Every new lead requires context before you can use it. Manually researching that context doesn’t scale.

Average time cost per new candidate:

Researching the contact online: 30 minutes
Verifying their company & role: 5 minutes
Checking their franchise history: 10 minutes
Manually updating CRM fields: 10 minutes

Now compare that to:

With the Contact Research Agent: every field is filled, every summary is written, and your record is ready before you open the lead.
