Ask, then keep the list
A request for titles, industries, and signals becomes a list. You do not export it into a second tool to enrich, and a third to send.

Where LeadHootz is different
One workspace after the prompt.
Waterfall, success only
Email and mobile run across providers. Credits are used when a match is found, not for every empty lookup.
Share, then the agent sends
Clients review a private link without a seat. Sequences run on email and LinkedIn, with daily limits and stop-on-reply.
