The job
Let GTM engineers and developers build production enrichment workflows by prompting a coding agent against typed endpoints, or add a people endpoint to their own web-data API.
When
A developer asks a coding agent to 'enrich new sign-ups with role and company and route them'.
Outcome
GTM engineers ship production workflows in minutes and developers enrich sign-ups and leads with one API key.
When to use it: A developer asks a coding agent to 'enrich new sign-ups with role and company and route them'.
Publish typed schemas for person_role_search, person_detail_lookup, reverse lookup, organization_search and job_search
Coding agent generates the workflow code and calls endpoints with one API key
Use _totals endpoints to estimate cost before paginating
Deploy as a scheduled job or webhook handler

Lead recipe 2
Offer people and company data as a built-in integration in an AI app builder
When to use it: A user prompts the app builder for a CRM, lead-gen or networking app that needs real people and company data.
Show the steps
Register an integration that wraps POST /person_role_search/, POST /person_detail_lookup/ and POST /organization_search/ with typed schemas
When generated code needs contacts, call /person_contacts_lookup/work_emails/ and POST /person_contacts_lookup/phone_numbers/ through the platform's metered key
For card or badge capture apps, OCR the name and company and resolve the person with POST /person_detail_lookup/
Bill builders in platform credits and show credits used per call
Refresh contact data before an agent writes to the CRM
When to use it: An agent is about to update a CRM contact from an email thread or a meeting note, and the stored title and employer are from a previous job.
Show the steps
Resolve the contact with POST /person_detail_reverse_lookup/by_email/ or POST /person_detail_lookup/
Compare the returned employer and title with the CRM record and flag a job change
Fetch the work email at the current employer with POST /person_contacts_lookup/work_emails/ when the employer changed
Write the record with the Forager person_id and the lookup date, so the next refresh is a cheap comparison

How to test it
Test work emails on your own sample
Pull a sample. Take profiles your users looked up last week.
Run it. Use a self-serve key, or book a demo and send us the list.
Measure what your users feel. Connect rate for mobiles, bounces for emails, and whether the right person answers.
How do AI agent and developer-tool companies use Forager work emails?
⌄
Let GTM engineers and developers build production enrichment workflows by prompting a coding agent against typed endpoints, or add a people endpoint to their own web-data API. Verified work email addresses for a person at their current employer. This page walks through 3 workflows with the exact steps.
What do work emails cost for AI agent and developer-tool companies?
⌄
Work emails: 5 credits per work email found, and a work email lookup that finds nothing costs 0 credits. That is $0.07 per work email on Starter month to month and $0.05 on Pro with yearly billing. Self-serve plans are Starter, Growth, Pro and Scale. See plans and prices
Which AI agent and developer-tool workflows use work emails?
⌄
Give coding agents typed people and company data tools, offer people and company data as a built-in integration in an AI app builder and refresh contact data before an agent writes to the CRM. Each is on this page with its trigger, steps and outcome.
Which people and company data APIs work well with coding agents?
⌄
The workflow uses Forager People search, Person enrichment, Company enrichment, Job postings API, Work emails, Personal emails and Reverse email lookup. People search: Find the people who hold a role at target companies, filtered by title, seniority, department and location. Let GTM engineers and developers build production enrichment workflows by prompting a coding agent against typed endpoints, or add a people endpoint to their own web-data API.
What inputs does it take and what does it return?
⌄
You send LinkedIn URL or public identifier, API key and company domain. You get back work_email, person_id, phone_number and company, from POST /person_contacts_lookup/work_emails/, as JSON.
Am I charged when no work email is found?
⌄
No. A work email lookup that finds nothing costs 0 credits, so you pay for work emails we find. Search, enrichment and reverse lookups are the exception: they are charged per request.
Can AI agent and developer-tool companies test work emails for free?
⌄
Yes. Create a free account at app.forager.ai: it comes with $5 in free credits and an API key, and there is no credit card to sign up. Run it on records you already know, or book a demo and send us a list: we run it and show you what we find.
How do I add contact enrichment to a vibe coded app?
⌄
When generated code needs contacts, call /person_contacts_lookup/work_emails/ and POST /person_contacts_lookup/phone_numbers/ through the platform's metered key. For card or badge capture apps, OCR the name and company and resolve the person with POST /person_detail_lookup/.
How do you check data quality?
⌄
The test that counts is your own: send a list of profiles you care about. We run it and show you what we find, number by number, so you can measure hit rate and connect rate yourself.
How is a work email finder different from guessing the email pattern?
⌄
A pattern guess (first.last@company.com) gives you an address that may not exist or may belong to someone who left. A work email lookup returns the address for that person at their current employer, and with Forager a work email lookup that finds nothing costs 0 credits.
Where can I use Forager work emails?
⌄
Native in Clay and Zapier, partner-built in Deepline and Cargo and called through the API from Make, n8n and your own code. Everything else connects through the REST API with one API key.
Do I need a subscription?
⌄
Not to test: a free account comes with $5 in credits. To keep using work emails, choose a monthly or yearly plan. Monthly plans cancel anytime and unused credits roll over; yearly plans grant all credits upfront and cost 10% less. Larger volumes are agreed with our team.
Written answers are not available right now. The matching pages above still help, or book a demo and ask the team.
