Nexus Trace: research agents for company and contact data

Nexus Trace is something I'm building now. It isn't available yet. I want to explain what it is for and how it works.

The problem for sales and research teams

Sales and research teams often start with a list of company names. Before anyone can reach out, someone has to find the right website for each one, confirm it's the right company, and then find a person who makes decisions there. That means a name, a role, and an email or phone number.

Doing that by hand for a long list takes a lot of searching. And once the data is in a spreadsheet, it's hard to tell where any one piece came from.

How it works

Nexus Trace runs long running research agents. You give it a list of companies. For each one, it first finds the right company record, meaning the website, the domain, and a basic profile. Then it looks for a decision maker contact with name, role, and email or phone.

It records the source for every field. So when you look at a contact, you can see where each detail was found.

It uses APIs first. It only opens a browser when it needs to, for example to check LinkedIn, Facebook, people databases, or public records like state and court filings.

Researchers choose how deep it searches. A quick pass and a thorough one are both options, and you decide.

Who it's for

It's meant for teams that need company and contact data at volume, like sales and research teams.
