LeadScout discovers your next customers across the European mid-market, scores every lead from 0–100 and reaches out straight from Gmail or Outlook — all in one app, optionally synced with HubSpot, Pipedrive or Zoho.
Müller Bau shows three classic digitalization gaps — no online contact form, missing price transparency, low review activity. Classic match for a lead funnel pitch.
No online form, no pricing transparency, few reviews — three clear digitalization gaps. Ideal funnel pitch to generate more inquiries.
Hello Mr. Müller, I noticed that your website doesn't have a contact form yet …
From defining your ICP through hunt + score to CRM-synced outreach — all in a single tab.
Enter a company URL or describe your offer in one sentence. The AI scrapes the website, infers WHO you sell to, and proposes 2–3 distinct target audiences as ICPs to choose from — complete with industries, exclusions and a match score.
Multiple industries at once via chip input (beauty, food, trades, retail, B2B, health, legal …). Free-form region or cluster picker. The run starts instantly, several in parallel.
Real-time status bar. Every lead automatically gets phone, email, managing director and commercial-register number from the imprint (§ 5 TMG) — plus a GDPR audit trail per data point. Filters, the min-score slider and CSV export all work live.
Click a lead to open the outreach panel. The AI proposal generator writes the email from the lead data, you pick Gmail or Outlook — the draft lands in your inbox via OAuth. You review and send in one click.
Every lead you contact lands automatically in your outreach pipeline with a status (New/Contacted/Replied/Qualified/Won). Log calls, comment as a team, all on an activity timeline. Optionally synced two-way with HubSpot, Pipedrive or Zoho.
leadscout_score and leadscout_audit_trail land in the CRM automatically. For everything else: an HMAC-signed webhook.Cognism and Apollo have more volume. We have fresher data, a GDPR audit trail and you're ready in 2 minutes — not 3 months.

LeadScout is built for the European B2B market and works primarily with Google Maps + web search rather than a LinkedIn database. The result is local, fresh leads (restaurants, tradespeople, SMBs) — not master records from a scraped database. Every lead is also scored 0–100 with an AI rationale, so you immediately see why a lead fits. GDPR-compliant, EU hosting in Frankfurt, no LinkedIn scraping.
Pick a plan, log in and start your first hunt run within minutes.
