Deep Dive Dossiers

A lead row tells you someone matched. Before you write to them, you want more: is this the same person on GitHub and LinkedIn? What have they built? Where are they actually reachable? Doing this by hand is twenty browser tabs per person. A deep dive is the agent doing those twenty tabs and writing up what it found.

Commissioning a dive

From any lead's row, choose Deep dive (⛏). One decision to make:

  • Max budget (credits) — the cap on how much investigating the agent may do. The dive spends in small metered steps (a profile fetch, a web search, a site crawl each cost a few credits) and stops the moment the budget is reached.

While it runs you'll see live progress: "Digging… N of N credits spent." Dives run in the background; you can leave the page.

What comes back

The dossier assembles everything verified about the person:

  • Verified identities — their accounts across platforms, confirmed to be the same human, not a same-name coincidence.
  • Contact channels — everywhere they're reachable, with a judgment call: "Best channel: …" — the one where they actually respond to strangers.
  • Work — what they build, ship, and write about.
  • Audience — reach and who follows them.
  • In their own words — direct quotes that tell you how they talk and what they care about. This is the section that makes an opener sound like you did your homework, because you did.

A dive report records what was searched and found, so you can audit the trail.

Budget outcomes

A dive ends in one of three states, always honestly labeled:

  • Dossier complete — the agent finished within budget.
  • Stopped at budget, partial dossier — the cap hit first; what was found is kept. You can re-dive with a higher budget later.
  • Synthesis failed, partial dossier — raw findings survived but the final write-up didn't; the partials remain usable.

Cost model

There is no flat price per dive, because people vary: a prolific founder with five active profiles costs more to map than a one-platform lurker. Instead every action is metered small — profile fetches, web searches, platform searches, site crawls at 2–3 credits each, and the final synthesis at 10 — under the cap you chose, adjusted by the same market multiplier as lead discovery. The dive settles once, at the end, for what was actually done. Full table in Credits & Metering.

When to dive

Not on everyone. The economical pattern:

  1. Discovery delivers a batch → skim evidence, shortlist the top handful.
  2. Deep dive the shortlist only, with a modest budget.
  3. Write openers from the "in their own words" section, on the "best channel".

The dossier's job is to make one message land, not to build a database.
