  • Company domain detection from headline/bio
  • Email pattern detection ([email protected] patterns)
  • Lead scoring (0-100)

LinkedIn Setup

  1. Log into LinkedIn in Chrome
  2. Open DevTools (F12) > Application > Cookies > linkedin.com
  3. Copy the value of li_at
  4. Add to .env:
LINKEDIN_COOKIE=your_li_at_cookie_value

Proxy Setup

# Single proxy
SCOUT_PROXY=http://user:pass@host:port

# Rotating proxies from file (one per line)
SCOUT_PROXY_FILE=proxies.txt

# Free anonymous proxies (no config needed)
SCOUT_FREE_PROXY=true

Proxies are optional. All scrapers work without them. Twitch automatically falls back to a direct connection if the proxy fails.

How Enrichment Works

After scraping, Scout enriches leads with verified email addresses:

  1. Extracts email/phone from bio text
  2. Scrapes the lead's website, /contact, and /about pages
  3. Detects the company from their headline (e.g. "CEO at CompanyX")
  4. Finds the company domain via DNS MX lookup
  5. Detects the email pattern from existing emails on the site
  6. Generates email candidates (first.last@, first@, etc.)
  7. Verifies each candidate against the mail server via SMTP
  8. Scores confidence 0-100% based on source and verification

No paid API required. Optional Hunter.io support for additional coverage.

Limitations

  • Instagram may require retries depending on region/IP
  • TikTok may serve CAPTCHAs depending on region or IP
  • LinkedIn cookies expire periodically
  • GitHub API is limited to 60 requests/hour without a token
  • SMTP verification may be blocked by some mail servers
  • Free proxies are unreliable
