SDRs were spending hours manually researching companies

Elephant sells a mobile learning platform to companies with frontline workers — service technicians, field sales teams, installers. Finding these companies meant manually Googling thousands of DACH companies, reading through websites in German, and guessing which ones have training needs. Then finding the right contact person was another manual process entirely.

End-to-End Flow

From raw company data to SDR-ready contacts in HubSpot — six automated steps.

01

Data Ingestion

Companies are pulled from HubSpot CRM and Apollo.io into MongoDB. Domains are normalized to prevent duplicates across .de, .com, .at variants.

HubSpot APIApollo.ioMongoDB
Output: 2,863 unique companies in the database
02

AI Research Agent

A LangChain agent researches each company using Tavily web search with German and English queries. GPT-4.1 analyzes 8-12 sources per company and writes a structured research summary.

ICP Scoring

Each company is scored 0-100 based on frontline workers (50pts), training indicators (30pts), organization fit (15pts), and bonus factors. Hard disqualifiers eliminate research institutes, software companies, and enterprises over 10k employees.

Find the Right People

Once a company is qualified, Pipeline Punch finds the decision-makers. LinkedIn employees are scraped, filtered by department, and enriched with verified emails and phone numbers from Apollo and Cognism.

Persona detection automatically classifies contacts as Operations, L&D, After-Sales, Quality, HR, IT, or CEO — so SDRs know exactly who to reach out to.
