How it works

Stop guessing who might buy. Start with people already asking.

01

We read where people ask

Public forums, procurement portals and search results, every day. Each source is named on its lead, its terms reviewed before it is switched on, and it can be switched off in an hour if it changes.

02

We qualify, then check again

A triage model separates demand from noise, a second pass extracts budget, timeline, contact path and evidence. Before anything reaches you, the post is fetched again: still there, still open, not already answered.

One post, qualified

  • Budget$12k · stated

We match, you answer

Your profile says what you sell, where, and at what floor. The match explains itself. You get a way to reach the poster and a draft opener. What you send is yours.

Freshness and validity

A lead that is already answered is not a lead.

Most lead tools stop at “we found a post”. The expensive part is knowing whether it is still worth your message, so that is where the work goes.

  • Re-checked before every send

    The original post is fetched again before an alert or digest goes out. Deleted, closed or filled posts are pulled.

  • Answered? We count replies

    Threads with many replies are marked likely answered; you see the count and decide.

  • Contact paths verified

    Emails are checked for a deliverable domain. Portals and gated platforms are labelled, with the cost to respond.

  • Legitimacy scored

    Scam patterns, fake budgets and job-seekers posing as clients are filtered; flag anything that slips through with one click.

What a lead carries

Everything you need to decide in ten seconds, and to reply in two minutes.

every lead

How to respond

The exact way the poster asked to be reached: an email, a portal, a reply in the thread. Emails are checked for a deliverable domain. If a platform forbids off-platform contact, we say so in red.

Pro and Premium

Suggested opener

A first message written from the post itself, referencing what they said. Edit before sending; it is a draft, not a script.

Evidence

Quote → conclusion pairs from the original text, so you can see why we think the budget is $12k or the timeline is Q1.

re-checked before every send

Still open?

Posts get answered, deleted and filled. We re-check liveness before every alert and digest and mark leads that have likely been answered.

Competition

How many subscribers already received this lead. No exclusivity, no pretending. You decide whether it is worth the message.

RFPs and tenders

Questions

Honest answers.

Anything else: [email protected]

  • Only from places where people ask in public: community forums, developer communities, official procurement portals, and requests for proposals that organisations publish on their own sites. Every lead in the portal links to the original post and names where it was found. Nothing is scraped from behind a login or bought from a list.

Get your first matched leads before you build another prospecting list.

Set up a profile in ninety seconds. FirstAsk replays the last seven days of qualified demand against what you sell.
