Live X & Web B2B Lead Enricher + Cold Email Icebreaker

Enriches a list of B2B prospects with their last 30 days of public X (Twitter) posts and company news, then writes a personalized cold email icebreaker, pain points, and a 1–10 buying-intent score for each.

Built for SDRs, BDRs, outbound agencies, founders doing their own outbound, and Clay / Make / n8n / Zapier users who want lead enrichment that also writes the opener.

Who it's for

• SDRs and BDRs who want real personalization without 15 minutes of research per lead
• Outbound and lead-gen agencies running campaigns for many clients
• Founders doing their own outbound
• Clay / Make / n8n / Zapier users who want an enrichment step that writes the opener for them

What you get for each prospect

Field	What it is
prospect_name, company, x_handle	Who was researched (handle found automatically when public)
recent_activity_summary	2-sentence summary of their X posts or company news from the last 30 days
pain_points_detected	2–3 priorities, hiring signals, or challenges inferred from that activity
cold_email_icebreaker	A natural one-sentence opener referencing something specific and recent
buying_intent_score	1–10: how relevant their current activity is to your offer
has_recent_signal	true if specific activity from the last 30 days was found
charged	false when no recent activity was found (you are not billed for that row)
cached_result	true if served from the 24-hour cache

Safe-topic icebreakers

Openers are built around positive or neutral business topics: product launches, funding, hiring, expansion, partnerships, customer wins, and technical insights. They are never based on politics, elections, taxes or policy opinions, religion, layoffs or job cuts, lawsuits, data breaches or security incidents, public apologies, personal life, health, or any controversy, even if that's the most recent item. If only sensitive items exist, the opener uses the company's core business instead. If nothing specific from the last 30 days is found, the row says so plainly, the intent score stays at 3 or below, and a short generic opener is written.

How to use it

1. Add your prospects. Each needs a name and/or company; x_handle and domain are optional but improve accuracy.
2. Describe what you sell in Your Product / Agency Offer so the openers and pain points tie back to your pitch.
3. Pick a tone: casual_founder, executive_direct, or witty_conversational.
4. Run it, then export results as CSV, JSON, or Excel, or pull them through the Apify API.

Pricing

Pay-per-event: $0.10 per enriched lead (event lead-enriched, $100 per 1,000), plus a negligible Apify start fee. No charge when nothing real is found: prospects that fail to enrich, or where no activity from the last 30 days is found, are still returned but marked charged: false. Cap spend on any run with Apify's maximum cost per run setting.

Free Apify plan users can try up to 3 prospects per run.

Pairs well with

• B2B Trigger Event Radar: find which accounts have a live buying signal (funding, exec hires, launches, hiring sprees) before you prospect them ($0.05 per triggered account; quiet accounts free).
• Journalist, Podcast & Creator Pitch Dossier Generator: research what a journalist, podcaster or creator covered recently and get a tailored pitch subject line and hook ($0.10 per dossier).

Integrations

• Apify API: start runs and fetch results with the REST API or the run-sync-get-dataset-items endpoint (JavaScript and Python clients available).
• Zapier, Make, and n8n: use the official Apify apps/nodes to run this Actor from a workflow and push results to your CRM, sheet, or email tool.
• Webhooks: get notified when a run finishes and pull the dataset automatically.
• AI agents: AI assistants and agents can call this Actor as a tool through the Apify MCP server.
• Exports: download results as JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML from the Console.

Tips for better results

• Include the X handle when you know it; it's the strongest signal.
• A specific offer description ("SOC 2 automation for Series A startups") produces sharper openers than a generic one.
• Leave the 24-hour cache on to avoid paying twice for the same prospect, offer, and tone.
• Always review openers before sending. Prospects with little public activity get lower-confidence results and low intent scores.

FAQ

Where does the data come from? Live public X posts and public web/news sources from the last 30 days, researched at run time.

How fast is it? Roughly 10–15 seconds per prospect.

Does it find email addresses? No. It enriches prospects you already have. Pair it with your email-finding tool of choice.

Will it invent activity? It's instructed to reference only posts or news it actually found. With nothing recent, the row is flagged has_recent_signal: false and not charged.

Is it compliant? It only uses publicly available information. You're responsible for following anti-spam laws (CAN-SPAM, GDPR, etc.) in your outreach.
