One-Click Save to Airtable or Trello

Drastically cut down your prospecting time. With ProspectBuddy, you can save any LinkedIn profile directly to your connected Airtable base or Trello board with just one click. This instant action transforms a public profile into a perfectly structured record in your CRM, eliminating all manual copying, pasting, and formatting errors. It ensures your lead data is captured instantly and consistently, keeping your pipeline organized without any slowdown.

Verified Email & Phone Discovery

Find accurate contact information at lightning speed. ProspectBuddy's powerful enrichment feature allows you to uncover verified business emails and direct phone numbers directly from a LinkedIn profile. This eliminates hours of guesswork and searching across different platforms, putting the most critical contact details directly into your structured record so you can start your outreach faster and with greater confidence.

AI-Powered Outreach Message Generation

Create personalized, compelling messages in seconds, not minutes. Using the data parsed from the LinkedIn profile, ProspectBuddy's AI instantly generates tailored outreach messages for email or LinkedIn InMail. This feature provides a powerful starting point that you can refine, helping you break the ice with relevance and personalization without sacrificing the speed of your prospecting cadence.

Customizable Field Mapping

Capture only the data you need, exactly where you need it. ProspectBuddy lets you select specific fields from a LinkedIn profile—like name, current role, skills, or about section—and map them directly to corresponding fields in your Airtable or Trello. This ensures your database contains clean, relevant, and consistently formatted information, making segmentation, reporting, and outreach hyper-efficient.

Sales Teams Building Targeted Pipelines

Sales development representatives and account executives can rapidly build a qualified pipeline. They can visit a target company's LinkedIn page, click through relevant profiles, and with one click per profile, populate their Airtable sales pipeline with enriched, ready-to-contact leads. This speeds up list-building by over 10x, allowing more time for actual selling and outreach.

Recruiters Sourcing Candidates

Recruiters and talent acquisition specialists can streamline their candidate sourcing. While searching on LinkedIn, they can instantly save promising profiles to a Trello board configured as a hiring pipeline. Each candidate becomes a structured card with all key details attached, making it easy to track, evaluate, and move candidates through stages without messy spreadsheets or manual entry.

Founders & Operators Networking

Founders, startup operators, and business developers conducting partnership outreach or investor research can efficiently manage contacts. They can save profiles from networking events or research sessions directly to their Airtable CRM, ensuring no connection is lost. The AI message helper then assists in crafting personalized follow-ups, making scaling genuine connections much faster.

Agencies Managing Client Campaigns

Marketing and lead generation agencies running campaigns for multiple clients can maintain impeccable organization. They can use different Airtable bases or Trello boards for each client and use ProspectBuddy to swiftly capture leads from targeted LinkedIn searches. This ensures clean, separated data for each campaign and provides clear, auditable trails of sourced prospects.

How do I connect ProspectBuddy to Airtable?

Connecting is a quick, one-minute process. Simply click on "Airtable" from the Connect screen within the ProspectBuddy extension. You will then select the specific bases or workspaces you wish to grant access to and click "Grant access." Once connected, the status will be confirmed on your Profile page. You can disconnect the integration at any time with a single click.

Is ProspectBuddy safe to use with LinkedIn?

Absolutely. ProspectBuddy is explicitly built for safe, manual prospecting. It does not perform any automated actions, scraping, or messaging on your behalf. You remain in full control, working directly from the LinkedIn interface. This manual approach makes it a fully compliant and safer alternative to bulk scraping tools or automation bots that violate LinkedIn's Terms of Service.

How do credits work in ProspectBuddy?

Credits are your internal balance used for specific premium actions within the extension. You purchase credits securely via Stripe, and your balance updates automatically after payment. Credits are primarily spent on actions like searching for a verified email (which costs credits only if an email is successfully found) or generating AI outreach messages.

Why can't I see some of my Airtable fields when mapping?

ProspectBuddy supports specific, compatible Airtable field types to ensure data integrity. Supported types include: Attachment (for photos), URL, Text, Email, and Phone. If your Airtable field is a different type (like a checkbox, rating, or formula), it will not appear in the mapping dropdown. Ensure you are mapping to a field with a compatible type.
