Description
Description This workflow automatically discovers decision-maker email addresses from Google search results using AI. Starting from a search query, it scrapes organic Google results, extracts company domains, infers likely decision-makers, generates realistic executive email patterns, validates deliverability, and stores only verified emails in Google Sheets. The workflow is designed to reduce manual research while producing structured, outbound-ready contact data that can be reused across sales, partnerships, recruiting, and research workflows. How it works Trigger The workflow starts manually or via a webhook with a Google search query. Google Search Scraping An Apify node collects organic Google search results for the query. Result Processing Each result is processed individually to extract the company name and website domain. Decision-Maker Inference An AI model analyzes the company context and identifies likely decision-makers (for example founders, executives, partners, or directors). Email Pattern Generation AI generates realistic executive email address candidates based on the company domain. Inbox Filtering Generic role-based inboxes (such as info@, support@, or sales@) are removed. Email Validation An email validation API checks deliverability and filters out invalid addresses. Data Structuring Results are normalized into structured fields for consistent storage. Storage Verified emails and company details are logged in Google Sheets.
