BeforeHey
For independent recruiters & boutique agencies

Every name on your list, researched before you say hey.

Upload your prospect list — LinkedIn URLs, names + companies, or a CSV. BeforeHey's AI researches everyone at once and returns, per person: a concise research brief, a read on how they communicate, and a first message drafted in your voice, tuned to your offer. You send from your own accounts.

You're in the queue.

We onboard in small weekly batches. Your trial invite will land in this inbox — keep an eye out.

Understand the prospect. Match their style. Open with relevance.

Like having an outreach expert read every prospect before you write — AI that works out who this person is, how they communicate, and what opener fits, then drafts it in your voice, not a robot's.

Sample brief — every name in your upload gets one, plus an approach read and a drafted first message.

By hand, this research runs 15–20 minutes a name. A 40-name shortlist is a full working day. BeforeHey returns the whole list in one batch.

What you get for every person on your list

BRIEF

A research brief that cuts to it

Role history, company context, recent moves and signals — condensed to the few lines that actually matter for your pitch. No tab-hopping, no 20 minutes per name.

READ

How this person communicates

A communication-style read on each prospect, so your message lands the way they like to be approached — direct or warm, detail or headline, formal or casual.

DRAFT

A first message in your voice

A ready-to-edit opener tuned to your offer and written the way you write. Tweak it, send it from your own account, and log what gets replies.

  1. Upload your list

    LinkedIn URLs, names + companies, or a CSV export. The list is yours — we never source contacts for you.

  2. The AI researches everyone at once

    One batch, every person covered. Come back to briefs, style reads, and drafts instead of a wall of open tabs.

  3. Send, track, learn

    Send from your own accounts. BeforeHey keeps your history — who you contacted, what you sent, what got replies — so your outreach gets sharper every week.

You bring the list. BeforeHey is not lead generation, not a contact database, and never an auto-sender. It makes you smart about every name you already have.

Questions recruiters ask us

Where does the research come from?
Publicly available information — professional profiles, company pages, public posts, and news. Each brief shows source confidence, and anything uncertain is flagged low-confidence rather than stated as fact. We don't scrape private data or buy contact lists.
Is this a lead generation or contact database tool?
No. BeforeHey never finds people for you and has no database to search. You upload the list you already have — candidates, clients, prospects — and it makes you smart about every name on it.
Does it send messages for me?
Never. It drafts a first message for each person, in your voice, tuned to your offer. You review, edit, and send from your own email or LinkedIn account. Your accounts, your reputation, your control.
What can I upload?
LinkedIn URLs, names + companies, or a CSV export from wherever your list lives. Paste a handful of names or upload a few hundred — everyone gets researched in one batch.
How does the free trial work?
We onboard in small weekly batches so every new account gets set up properly. Click "Start free trial," leave your email, and your invite arrives in your inbox. No card needed to start; $39/month after your trial, cancel anytime.
Who owns my list and outreach history?
You do. Your list, your notes, and your sent/reply history stay in your account, and we don't sell or share them. The history exists for one reason: so the tool learns what messaging works for you.

“Know them before you say hey.”
