Cleanlist's AI People Search lets you describe your ideal prospect in natural language and receive qualified leads with confidence scoring.

How it works

  1. Describe your target - Type a natural language query like "VP of Marketing at Series B SaaS companies in New York with 50-200 employees"

  2. AI interprets and searches - The system uses Exa AI to search across millions of profiles.

  3. Review qualified results - Each result includes confidence scoring across multiple dimensions.

  4. Import to a list - Select matches and import to a new or existing list with optional enrichment.

Searchable criteria

The AI interprets complex queries combining:

  • Job titles and seniority - "VP Marketing", "C-suite", "Engineering Managers"

  • Company characteristics - "Series B startups", "1000+ employee enterprises", "SaaS companies"

  • Industry - "fintech", "healthcare tech", "e-commerce"

  • Location - "San Francisco", "European-based", "UK"

  • Specialized attributes - "previously worked at Google", "recently changed jobs"

Qualification scoring

Each result is scored across six dimensions:

  • Confidence level (High/Medium/Low)

  • Founder status

  • B2B relevance

  • Industry alignment

  • Geographic match

  • Company size and funding stage

Conversational refinement

You can refine results through multi-turn conversations. For example, after an initial search, narrow down with "Only show me companies with less than 100 employees" or "Exclude anyone in consulting."

Tips

  • Be specific in your initial query for better results.

  • Search is free - credits are only charged when you import and enrich leads.

  • You can cancel a search to stop additional processing.
