Overview
Every’s Prospecting Agent finds potential clients among people you already know. It searches the contacts and relationship data you choose to connect, researches promising matches, scores them for fit and relationship strength, and lists the best matches on the Prospects page for review. This is warm-network prospecting, not a cold-contact database. Every does not buy a lead list or send automatic outreach to everyone it finds. For a public explanation of how this differs from list-based prospecting, see AI lead generation from your existing network. For the broader relationship-to-client workflow, see Every’s AI CRM guide.Open Prospects
Prospecting runs from the Prospects page; approved prospects land on Deals at the Lead stage
Prospecting uses AI credits. The work required depends on the size of your network and how much enrichment or research the agent needs to do. See What is a credit?.
How warm-lead discovery works
Prospecting works through targets. A target describes who you want to reach and the services it applies to. For each target, Every:- Reads what your business sells and the audience the target describes.
- Skips people who are already in an active deal, already waiting for your review, or that you have rejected. Your teammates and people at your own company are never scored.
- Scores everyone else in your network for fit and relationship strength. People whose details are still being filled in are scored once enrichment finishes.
- Researches the strongest matches more deeply and writes a short reason for each one.
- Adds each qualified match to the review table on the Prospects page as soon as it is scored.
Where Every looks
Every searches the relationship sources you have added to your workspace:- People you created or imported
- Google Contacts
- Gmail correspondence and Google Calendar meeting history, when those permissions are connected
- LinkedIn connections and message history you imported, or synced by connecting LinkedIn
- Instagram accounts you follow and your Instagram DMs, when Instagram is connected
- People brought in through supported integrations or enrichment
Every only uses sources you connect or import. Google Drive access is file-by-file, and Google permissions can be managed separately. See Google Workspace.
How leads are scored
The review table on the Prospects page shows the two primary decision scores:- Fit — how closely the person matches what you sell and who you want to reach.
- Relationship — how strong the available path is based on your recorded history and connection evidence.
Choose who you want to find
Open Prospects and select Add target. Pick one of the suggestions Every draws from your Business DNA, or describe a custom audience and the services it applies to. Every names the target for you. New workspaces start with up to three targets suggested from Business DNA, so there is usually something to review right after onboarding.Targets run automatically
There is no schedule to set and no search to re-run. Once you add a target, Every scores your network for it and keeps it current as your network changes.- Target cards across the top of the page show each target’s name, how many prospects are left to review, and how many active deals it has produced. All prospects combines every target. Select a card to filter the table to that target.
- Min scores sets the lowest Fit and Relationship score a prospect needs for the selected target. The table re-filters live as you move the sliders; nothing is re-scanned.
- Target details (the ⓘ button on a card) shows the brief, services, min scores, results, the deals the target produced (archived ones included), network coverage, and what Every learned. Rename the target, Duplicate it, or Archive it from there.
Custom targets
A custom target is one you describe yourself instead of picking a suggestion. Describe the audience in plain language and choose the services it applies to. Examples:Review before anything happens
Every lists every discovered match on the Prospects page. At this point the prospect has a reason and scores, but no outreach draft has been sent and the person is not yet in the active pipeline. Prospects is its own page in the left rail, right after Deals, with a count of who is waiting. The Deals header also shows Prospects · N to take you there. Each row has:- Approve — creates a deal at the Lead stage. The pipeline agent then builds the sales plan and prepares the first outreach draft.
- Add to deal — shown when the person’s company matches one of your existing deals. It adds the person to that deal instead of creating a new one; the menu next to it still offers Approve as new deal.
- Reject — removes the match and suppresses that person from future searches. A feedback row stays open for 5 seconds so you can tell Every why.
Teach Every what a good lead looks like
Every learns from the prospects you approve or reject and from guidance you add under What Every learned, in Prospecting settings (the settings icon in the Prospects page header). Use it for durable rules such as:Frequently asked questions
Is this cold lead generation?
Is this cold lead generation?
No. Every starts with the contacts and relationship sources you authorize. It can enrich and research those records, but it does not sell a third-party list of strangers.
Will Every message people automatically?
Will Every message people automatically?
Not by default. Matches first appear on the Prospects page. You approve a prospect before the pipeline prepares outreach, and you review the message before it is sent. If you turn on Auto mode for a deal, Every replies and follows up with that deal’s contact on its own, only inside a conversation they’ve already written in, with a few minutes to cancel each message.
What happens when I reject a lead?
What happens when I reject a lead?
The person is removed from review and suppressed from future searches under every target, including targets you add later. Adding a reason also gives the agent a useful preference signal.
Why does a target have only a few prospects?
Why does a target have only a few prospects?
Every only lists people who meet the target’s Min scores. People already in a deal, already reviewed, or rejected are skipped, and records without enough professional data score low. Lower the min scores to see more, or grow your network with Add to network. Target details shows how much of your network the target has covered.
Where did the scheduled Prospecting task go?
Where did the scheduled Prospecting task go?
Prospecting no longer runs as a scheduled task. Targets keep working on their own from the Prospects page, so there is no schedule or lead count to manage.
