I worked on a language learning site and in order to try to onboard tutors, I wrote a script that scraped the Preply tutor list, which gave first names, pictures, and a YouTube account link.
From there I made a spreadsheet and spent hours googling names and trying to match up pictures to faces, sending messages asking if they'd like to be a part of a pilot program on my platform.
Got quite a few people willing to try it out :) but sadly the startup didn't succeed. Fun times though.
Interesting! I bet now with AI, you can create an agent to do this. I'm glad that worked, however, we're targeting founders of b2b saas companies who are early stage, and that is quite a broad search.

if someone annoyed me with ai like this, i wouldnt even waste the energy on an AI summary.
On the other hand, im probably not good enough at anything to even be worth the waste of energy to annoy me.
