What do I need to run this recipe, and what comes back?

You send candidate profile URL and name + current employer. You get back contact status, personal_email and phone_number, as JSON. You also need a Forager API key, which comes with a free account.

Which API gives verified mobile numbers for passive candidates?

This recipe uses Forager Mobile numbers, Personal emails and Person enrichment. Mobile numbers: Direct mobile numbers for a person, from a LinkedIn URL or a Forager person ID, validated before they reach you. Let an AI recruiter or recruiter-assist agent call, text and email sourced candidates without the recruiter hunting for numbers.

Is there a free way to try Forager on this workflow?

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.

When should I run this workflow?

When a recruiter approves a sourced shortlist and the agent queues first-touch calls and messages. Recruiters spend time on qualified conversations instead of contact research.

Which Forager products does this recipe use?

Mobile numbers, personal emails and person enrichment. Mobile numbers: direct mobile numbers for a person, from a LinkedIn URL or a Forager person ID, validated before they reach you. Personal emails: personal email addresses for reaching people outside their work inbox, such as passive candidates and founders.

How do I know the data is right?

Forager ranked #1 of 10 in Clay's 2026 test of mobile data providers, by quality score: Clay's measure of how likely a dialled number reaches the right person. 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.

Which tools can run this workflow?

Native in Clay and Zapier, partner-built in Deepline and Cargo and called through the API from Make, n8n and your own code. Or call the endpoints in the steps above from your own code with one API key.

How many steps is this workflow?

4 steps: resolve each candidate with POST /person_detail_lookup/ (linkedin_public_identifier or name + employer), fetch a mobile with POST /person_contacts_lookup/phone_numbers/ (Gold for first-call quality, Silver for reach across the whole shortlist), add personal_email from /person_contacts_lookup/personal_emails/ as the async channel and agent places the screening call or sends the message and writes outcomes back to the ATS.

Is there a contract or minimum commitment?

No contract to start: a free account comes with $5 in credits. To keep using Forager, 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.

Can we show Forager data inside our product?

Yes, under platform terms. Self-serve plans cover internal use by your own team. Showing Forager contacts to your users, or passing records on, is licensed separately: talk to sales about volume and which fields your users need to see.
