I’m a founder, not a sales expert. Apollo filled in the GTM know-how I was missing. Through the MCP, I tapped its database and web research to build my first campaign in about 30 minutes, end to end. It’s been a lifesaver.”

Through Apollo’s API, we pull from Apollo’s prospecting database and conduct web research to narrow in on our ICP. Paired with Claude routines, our GTM team wakes up every morning to a vetted contact list and drafted outbound, ready to review and send. It saves everyone roughly two hours a day, and we’ve already seen reply rates climb 5–7%.”

Frequently asked questions

Apollo is the AI GTM System that uniquely combines data, intelligence, and execution in one loop helping every business find and win their next customer. Trusted by millions of users and over 600,000 companies worldwide, Apollo combines one of the industry's largest B2B contact databases with a purpose built GTM intelligence engine and a full execution stack, in an all-in-one system. Builders can also use Apollo from their own agents.

Apollo is agent-friendly because it’s built so an AI agent can get good results without having to learn how Apollo works. Your agent, whether it’s ChatGPT, Claude or one you built, can hand Apollo a job in plain English, like “find car dealerships in Detroit and who runs them.” Apollo’s agent handles which searches to run and goes beyond Apollo’s database when it needs to. Apollo’s docs are also written so agents can read them and understand what Apollo can do. You connect your Apollo account once, and nothing that costs credits happens without your approval.

In Claude or ChatGPT, add Apollo from the list of connectors and sign in with your Apollo account. To connect an agent you built, use Apollo’s MCP server or API, following the setup guides at docs.apollo.io. Once you’re connected, ask your agent for the leads you want in plain English, like “find office managers at dental practices in Austin with 3+ locations.” Apollo’s agent is available on paid plans with a verified business account.

Apollo’s search API runs exact searches, so it works best when your agent already knows the filters it wants, like job titles, locations and company size. Apollo’s agent takes a request in plain English and handles the whole job. It handles which Apollo searches to run, goes beyond Apollo’s database to Google Maps and the web when it needs to, checks that each result fits, and finds verified contacts. Your agent picks the right option for each request and stays in charge of the bigger project.

Besides finding leads, Apollo’s agent can take on most of the outreach work your agent hands it. It can research accounts, write email sequences, add each person to a sequence with their own email, plan a campaign, review how your sequences are performing, summarize sales calls, and fix problems that keep your emails from being delivered. Your agent stays in charge of the bigger project, and Apollo checks with you before spending credits and other key moments.

Yes. When Apollo’s database doesn’t have what you’re looking for, Apollo’s agent searches beyond it. It uses Google Maps to find local businesses and their decision makers, pulls companies from public online directories and event lists, and uses AI research to check additional criteria. You can ask from ChatGPT, Claude or your own agent connected to Apollo. Before spending credits, Apollo shows you a preview of what it found and what it will cost.

Apollo uses credits, and you only spend them on the actions its agent takes, like saving a business from Google Maps, researching a company, or revealing an email or phone number. Handing Apollo a job is free. For example, saving 20 local businesses from Google Maps costs 20 credits. Before Apollo spends any credits, it shows you a sample of what it found and the total cost, then waits for your go-ahead. Credits come with your Apollo plan.

Yes. Apollo can check that emails and phone numbers are real before your agent reaches out, and make sure the person hasn't asked not to be contacted. When your agent writes a different email for each person, Apollo sends them using email tools that help keep your messages out of spam.
