Meet your AI lead-gen employee

Hiring your first salesperson is a big step. Most UK small businesses never get there. So we built the next best thing into Leadistry: an AI that works like a lead-gen employee. You talk to it for two minutes. It sets up your agent: who to look for, where to look, and the words that go into your emails. Then it brings you leads as soon as they are found and checked, with the first email to each already drafted. And by default nothing goes out until you have approved it.

What the two-minute chat looks like

1. It reads your website. You give it your web address. It works out what you sell, who buys it, and how you talk about it.
2. It asks two or three easy questions. "Do you serve the whole UK or just your area?" "What does a good first customer look like?" Plain English, no settings screens.
3. It picks the trades and the area. Your answers become the right SIC codes and the area to cover, and it shows you real sample companies before anything is charged.
4. It sets up your email. The look, your logo and the words, on the Template. Read them. Change anything. Tell it if it got you wrong.

That is the whole interview. Two minutes of your time, and the output is not a report or a to-do list. It is an agent, and it starts work within a minute.

What it does every morning

One employee, four jobs, done in order before you are at your desk:

• Find. It reads the public record for companies that match and dates the reason to get in touch: registered in the last 12 months, a filing deadline, a change of name, a website graded poor.
• Reach. It finds the website, an email address that belongs to the company, and the director's name when the public record has it.
• Check. It opens the company's website and checks the email address. Whatever fails is dropped.
• Write. It writes the first line of the email from the dated reason.

The results are waiting on the Feed when you start work, and more arrive through the day, each as soon as it is found and checked, for as long as you have leads left. To have fewer a day, set a daily limit on any agent's page. Each card is the email itself, written to that company from its dated reason. You approve it, change any line or skip it. The screens are walked through in what changed in Leadistry V2.

One agent per kind of customer

Most businesses sell to more than one kind of buyer, so you can run several agents side by side, one for each. Any of them can be paused when you are busy and picked up again later. And when you want a batch for a specific push rather than waiting for the morning, "Find more now" on an agent's page runs a search on the spot, and tells you what it costs first.

You approve. Nothing sends until you say so.

This is the rule the whole product is built around. The AI writes drafts, and each one waits in the Feed for you. It never invents a fact about a prospect: everything it says about a company comes from the public record and the company's own website. A reply from a real person always stops everything to that company and comes straight to you.

Autopilot exists, and it is off by default. It is one switch, on the Feed: with it on, every card from your agents goes out on its own in your sending hours, whether or not you log in. Even switched on, it never answers a reply, never spends a lead, never changes who the agent looks for, and cannot send an email that is missing your words. Emails from a search you run yourself still wait for you. Approve each email or send automatically sets out when each suits.

If that sounds strict, it is meant to. Your name is on every email. You should have read it first.

What it keeps doing after day one

A good employee does not stop after setup week. Neither does this one:

• It rewrites on request. Click any line to change it, or ask the assistant for something shorter or plainer, for this email or every email.
• It sends at a sensible pace. From your own Google or Microsoft mailbox, on your sending days and inside your hours, starting at 5 a day and climbing to 30 as the mailbox warms up. Two short follow-ups come after the first email (day 4 and day 9 by default), each written for that company, and you can move them or switch them off.
• It handles replies properly. A reply stops everything to that company. It lands on the Desk, where opening it drafts an answer, but you are the one who sends it.
• It tests your email. Ask it to test two versions side by side, judged on replies. There is no open-tracking pixel, so opens are never counted. Clicks on your links are recorded, but the test is decided on replies.
• It answers questions. Ask the assistant on the Desk about your leads, your emails or your bill in plain English. "Why is this email not getting replies?" gets an answer from your own numbers, and it can do the job for you when asked.

What it costs

Nothing extra. The AI is part of Leadistry. Leads stay simple too: one lead is one lead, always with the Companies House record, the website, an email that belongs to the company, and the director's name when the public record has it. The full pricing story is in how Leadistry pricing works, and Leadistry V2 covers what the agent actually does each morning now. For the hours it replaces, published estimates put list building at about eight hours by hand against 26 minutes with AI: how long lead generation takes, with and without AI.
