Open-source AI agent for B2B lead generation — describe your product, it finds the people who fit and explains why each one does, then exports a CSV your cold-email tool can send. Self-hosted CLI.

Claude Code

OpenOutreach is a Claude Code plugin that enables AI-powered B2B lead generation directly from agent sessions. It connects Claude to a self-hosted lead discovery pipeline that searches licensed firmographic data, qualifies candidates against your ideal customer profile using an LLM, and exports results as CSV with per-lead fit reasoning. The plugin wraps the OpenOutreach CLI tool, allowing developers to find qualified leads without leaving their Claude Code workspace by describing their product and target market in natural language.

Key Features

AI-driven lead discovery from licensed data sources (BetterContact) with no manual list uploads required
LLM-generated qualification reasoning exported alongside each lead record
Cost-gated email enrichment that only spends credits on high-confidence matches
CSV export formatted for direct import into cold-email platforms (Instantly, Smartlead) without column mapping
Interactive onboarding that configures LLM keys, lead-data provider credentials, and campaign parameters
Resumable pipeline that tracks state locally and continues from last position
Built-in Django CRM admin interface for browsing leads, companies, and qualification decisions
JSON Lines output mode for programmatic integration and agent consumption
