Key facts
- To get real people with checked emails, use a contact database with AI search, such as Buzzlist, and use the chatbot for thinking.
- On paid plans, Buzzlist search takes the same kind of sentence you would type into a chatbot and returns ranked people with a reason each.
- A one-click ChatGPT connector is not available yet.
- Never send to an address you have not checked.
What chatbots do well
- Turning "who buys from us" into a clear description.
- Listing industries and titles to try.
- Drafting and editing email copy.
Where they fall short
They cannot reveal current emails or phones, and they may confidently make up a name or an address. Sending to made-up addresses causes bounces.
What a contact database adds
Real people, the count of matches, contact details you can reveal and email checks. On paid plans, Buzzlist search takes the same kind of sentence you would type into a chatbot and returns ranked people with a reason each.
