Reviewed by the MyZone AI team. New companies that fit your ideal customer, each checked on its own website. ## At a glance - **Searches:** Across the segments and regions you set, starting with member lists and local business news - **Checks:** Visits each company's own website to confirm it is an operating business that fits - **Leaves out:** Competitors, your own company, government bodies, charities and very large enterprises - **Contacts:** Only those listed on the company's own site, with the page they came from - **Each lead:** A one-line factual reason drawn from what the company's site says - **What it never does:** Contact anyone; your team decides any first approach ## What Lead Finder: Web does - **Searches by segment and region:** Varies its searches across the targets you set, starting with member lists and local business news that name several firms at once. - **Visits each company's website:** Opens the candidate's own site to confirm it is a real, operating business that fits. - **Drops who you exclude:** Competitors, your own company, government bodies, charities and very large enterprises are left out. - **Adds listed business contacts:** A general business email or phone, or a senior person named on the company's site, together with the page it came from. - **Hands over a clean batch:** The batch is checked for duplicates, kept within your limits and delivered as new, cold leads. ## How Lead Finder: Web differs from a ready-made contact database A ready-made contact database hands you a long list of names with no reason attached and no way to see where the details came from. Lead Finder: Web searches the open web for companies that fit your ideal customer, confirms each one on its own website and keeps only business contacts the site lists, with their source page. It delivers a small batch of cold leads to your CRM inbox and never contacts anyone itself. How this differs from Lead Finder: List (https://myzone.ai/pages/agents/ai-list-lead-finder-agent): To turn a company list you already have into leads, use Lead Finder: List; Lead Finder: Web searches the open web for new companies that fit your ideal customer. ## How it works 1. **You approve the targeting** (you approve) (Before any search runs): Your team confirms the segments, regions and companies to leave out before any search runs. 2. **Search and confirm** (On each run): It searches the web within a set budget and checks each candidate on its own website. 3. **Screen and deliver** (Before delivery): Duplicates and excluded companies are removed and the rest go to your CRM inbox. 4. **Your team decides on contact** (Once leads arrive): Reps look over the leads and choose who to approach, if anyone. ## When to use it - **You are moving into a new region:** It finds local businesses in your segments there, each confirmed on its own site. - **Your target list has run dry:** A fresh batch of fitting companies arrives in the CRM for reps to look at. - **You sell to a narrow niche:** Searches stay inside the segments and services you described, so reps are not wading through poor fits. - **You want to know why a company was picked:** Each lead has a short factual reason taken from its own website. ## What you get - Batches of new companies that fit your ideal customer - A one-line factual reason for each company - Listed business contact details with their source page, where the site shows them - Duplicate-checked leads delivered to your CRM inbox ## Example: web lead batch for the CRM inbox Example with a fictional company. Names, people and figures are invented to show the agent's output. Any resemblance to a real company or person is unintended. What it was asked: Find companies on the open web that match our ideal customer, check each one properly, and put them in our CRM inbox so my team can decide who to contact. This is an illustrative example of the web lead batch Lead Finder: Web is being built to produce: the leads delivered, the searches by segment, the checks and exclusions, and one lead in full. It was written by hand from the agent's design for an invented company, with invented leads described only by type and invented figures. No real website, company, CRM or person was involved, and nothing was sent, posted, paid or changed. Run date: 22 October 2026. ### What it found - Using 37 of 40 web lookups, the finder checked 22 company websites, confirmed 17 as a fit and delivered 14 new cold leads after removing 3 already in the CRM. - Leads came from all four segments: 5 specialty food producers, 4 craft beverage makers, 3 online sellers of fragile goods and 2 natural cosmetics makers. - 5 candidates were left out after their own sites were checked: a large brand, a charity, a competitor, one outside the region and one not confirmed as trading. ## Guardrails - Your Ai1 team will tell you when Lead Finder: Web is ready for your account. - It looks for companies, not private individuals, and uses public business information only. - Contacts come only from the company's own website. It does not guess email addresses or take details from social profiles or data brokers. - It never contacts anyone. Leads arrive cold, and your team decides any first approach under the rules that apply to you. - Text found on web pages is treated as information only, never as instructions. ## Frequently asked questions ### Where should business contact details for prospecting come from? The cleanest source is the company's own website: a general business email or phone, or a senior person it names publicly. Guessed addresses, personal emails and details from data brokers carry privacy and deliverability risks. Lead Finder: Web takes contacts only from the company's own site and leaves them out when in doubt. ### How can you tell a company found online really fits your market? Check its own website: what it says it does, where it operates and whether it is an operating business. Lead Finder: Web visits each candidate's site before keeping it, drops the companies you exclude and adds a one-line reason drawn from what the site says. ### Is a small batch of confirmed leads better than a long list? It usually wastes less of your reps' time, because every company in it has been checked. Lead Finder: Web prefers a small batch of confirmed companies over a long list of weak matches, and a run that finds no good fit delivers nothing rather than padding the list. ### What does an AI lead finder do? It searches public sources for businesses that fit your ideal customer and checking each one before it reaches your sales team. Lead Finder: Web searches the open web, confirms each company on its own website and delivers a short batch to your CRM. ### Where do the contact details come from? Only from the company's own website, such as a general business email or phone or a senior person the site names. If no contact is listed, the company is still delivered without one. ### How many leads will we get? That depends on your market and the limits your team sets. It prefers a small batch of confirmed companies, and a run that finds no good fit delivers nothing rather than padding the list. ### How is it different from Lead Finder: List?
