# Outreach agent, find to opener: an agent recipe

Finds leads, gets their emails and writes an opener from a recent post. Your agent needs another tool for sending email.

## Prompt

Use looot to find 50 heads of growth at B2B SaaS companies, get each work email, and write a two-line opener for each from their recent post. 1. Set up https://looot.ai/skill.md. 2. Search the catalog for each step and check its price before you call. 3. Run the cheapest endpoint that fits. 4. Show the results as a table and the total cost.

## Steps and providers

- Find the people: apollo-sequences, people-data-labs. 1 search per lead.
- Find the work email: hunter, findymail, tomba, icypeas. 1 lookup per lead.
- Read a recent post: exa, tavily. 1 search per lead.

## Memory and schedule

Results come back to your agent. Nothing is stored for you.

Run it on demand.
