Outbound sales

The hour between a search and a sequence

How do I get emails for an outbound list from LinkedIn?

Run your ICP search in LinkedIn or Sales Navigator, start Cuvy on the results page, and it works through every person on it — finding a work email, checking it, and putting the confirmed ones in their own file. You get a CSV, or a push straight into HubSpot. One credit per person found; the ones it cannot find cost nothing.

The actual problem

Nobody is short of prospects. They are short of addresses.

The search takes four minutes. What takes the morning is turning 400 names on a results page into 400 rows you can put in a sequencer.

The usual version of this involves three tabs and a spreadsheet: the search in one, a finder in another, a guess-the-pattern tool in the third, and a column of addresses that half work. The part that costs real money is not the tool — it is that a bounced send is charged twice, once by the vendor who sold you the address and once by your domain reputation.

Cuvy collapses that into the tab you already had open. It reads the results page, works down it, and keeps the addresses it is sure of apart from the ones it is not — so the file that reaches your sequencer is not a file you have to clean first.

How it runs

Three steps, and you are only present for the first

  1. Run the search you were going to run

    Your ICP filters in LinkedIn or Sales Navigator. Cuvy counts the people on the page and shows you what the run would cost before it spends anything.

    Cost shown first
  2. Start it and go to your standup

    It works through the pages in the background at a human pace, so you can close the tab. Nothing is sent from your account while it runs.

  3. Take the confirmed file into your sequencer

    Confirmed addresses export on their own, so the list that reaches your sequencer is the list you meant to send to. Single-source ones come out separately with their source, for you to judge.

    Two files, not one
What it changes

Fewer sends, and fewer of them wasted

Three numbers, each measuring a different thing.

74%
of a typical ICP search comes back with an address

Counted per person, not per lookup — a person with three candidate addresses is one hit, not three.

0
credits charged for the people we miss

They arrive in a separate file so you know who was missed rather than finding out from a bounce.

files out of every run

Confirmed in one, single-source in the other. Your sequencer only ever sees the first unless you say otherwise.

Questions

What outbound teams ask first

How long does a list of 400 prospects take?

About 3.8s of processing for 400 people once the run starts, and it continues after you close the tab. In practice you start it, do something else, and get a notification when the file is ready.

Will this get my LinkedIn account restricted?

Cuvy sends nothing from your account — no messages, no connection requests, no profile views beyond the page you already opened — and never signs in from its own side. It reads the results page in your browser and paces itself the way a person would.

What hit rate should I expect on a normal ICP search?

Around 74% of people on a typical B2B search come back with an address. It runs higher on tech and software companies with public domains, and lower on very small businesses and on industries where nobody publishes an email anywhere.

Does it work with my sequencer?

If your sequencer takes a CSV, yes. There is also a direct push to HubSpot, and an API for anything else. Duplicates against what is already in your CRM are removed on the way out.

What stops me sending to an address that bounces?

Two things. Every address is checked before you see it, and the ones only a single source has seen are kept in a separate file rather than mixed into the sendable one — so a guess never reaches your sequencer unless you move it there deliberately.

What does it cost to build a list of 1,000 prospects?

You are charged one credit for each person an address is found for — about 740 of a thousand on a typical search — and nothing for the rest. On Pro that is roughly $7.25 of a $49 monthly plan.
