Contact Discovery helps you find the right stakeholders at your target accounts. Search by name, role, department, or seniority. Use AI-powered recommendations to discover decision-makers and influencers you didn’t know about. Run single searches or batch discoveries across hundreds of accounts.
Contact Discovery works across multiple data sources - enrichment providers, company directories, LinkedIn, and job posting databases - so you get comprehensive coverage even for companies with limited public information.

​
How It Works

1

Define Search Criteria

Specify what you’re looking for: job title or role keywords, department, seniority level, name, location, or a combination of these filters.
2

Select Data Sources

Choose which data providers to search across - multiple sources ensure broader coverage and reduce gaps in contact information.
3

Run Discovery

Conduct a single account search or batch discover across your entire account list. Results stream back with match quality indicators.
4

Review and Add

Evaluate results, preview contact profiles, and add matches to your database. Duplicate detection prevents adding the same person twice.
5

Get AI Recommendations

Leverage AI-powered suggestions for stakeholders who fit your search criteria or buying profile, even if they don’t match keyword searches exactly.

​
What You Can Discover

By Role or Seniority

Find CFOs, VPs of Engineering, directors, managers, or any role. Filter by seniority level to target decision-makers or gather broader coverage.

By Department

Discover everyone in Finance, Engineering, Sales, Marketing, Operations, or any function within an account.

By Persona

Use pre-built personas like “Budget Owners”, “CRO & CMO”, “Sales Leaders”, or “RevOps & Enablement” to find people matched to your buying criteria.

By Name or Location

Search for specific people by name, or find contacts in particular geographies or office locations.

​
Key Capabilities

Batch Discovery: Run a single search across 100+ accounts to find all matching contacts at once. Perfect for identifying budget owners across your target list or finding new hiring managers after funding rounds. AI-Powered Recommendations: Go beyond keyword matching. AI surfaces people who match your buying profile or stakeholder type even if they don’t have the exact title you searched for. Multiple Data Sources: No single database has everyone. Discovery queries multiple enrichment providers and directories simultaneously, so you find people that others might miss. Match Quality Indicators: Each result shows confidence scores and source information, so you know how verified each contact is before you reach out.

​
Tips and Best Practices

  • Start broad, then refine: Search for a role + department first, review results, then narrow by seniority or keywords if needed.
  • Use persona-based discovery: Pre-built personas like “Budget Owners” or “Technical Decision Makers” are often faster than building custom role searches.
  • Batch discover before outreach campaigns: Run batch discovery across your target account list before launching campaigns to ensure you have complete coverage.
  • Review data sources: Some sources are more complete for specific industries or company sizes. If a search returns sparse results, adjust data source selection and try again.
  • Deduplicate across batch operations: The system automatically checks for duplicate contacts when adding, but review the dedupe report to catch variations on names and titles.

Contact Enrichment

Once discovered, enrich contacts with verified email addresses and phone numbers to reach them immediately.

Contact Intelligence

Turn discovered contacts into insights: background, expertise, and likely buying role for each person.

PG:AI Account

Discovered contacts feed into account profiles and org charts, giving you a complete picture of account coverage.
