This is where OpenClaw replaces Apollo and PhantomBuster.

The research workflow:

A. Define your ICP criteria

Message your OpenClaw agent (via WhatsApp/Telegram) with something like:

"I'm looking for B2B SaaS founders with 10-50 employees who recently raised a Series A. They should be US-based and in the HR tech or sales tech space. Help me find 20 prospects."

OpenClaw will:

• Search LinkedIn, Crunchbase, and company websites
• Pull founder names, company info, recent news, tech stack signals
• Compile everything into a structured list

B. Enrich the data

For each prospect, ask OpenClaw to find:

• Recent LinkedIn posts or activity
• Company news from the last 30 days
• Hiring patterns (are they growing?)
• Tech stack clues (what tools do they use?)
• Mutual connections or shared communities

"For each prospect on my list, find their 3 most recent LinkedIn posts, any company news from the last month, and check if they're currently hiring for sales or marketing roles."

C. Export to your tracking sheet

Ask OpenClaw to format the data and export it to a Google Sheet or Notion database. This becomes your outreach list.
