What it does
Find the right contacts at a target company, qualified against your ICP, in one chat conversation
Scenario
You've identified a target company. You need to find three or four decision-makers who match your personas. Right now you're scrolling LinkedIn, guessing at titles, copying names into a spreadsheet, and hoping they're actually relevant to your product. You have no idea if they match your ICP until you've already spent 20 minutes researching each one.
How It Works
You tell Claude the company and which personas you're looking for. Octave's MCP finds matching contacts, enriches each one, and qualifies them against your ICP. You get back a ranked list with fit scores, persona matches, and rationale for each person. No building required - just a conversation.

The Old Way
❌ LinkedIn Guessing
Scroll through company pages and search by title, hoping you land on the right person without any ICP context
❌ One at a Time
Research each person individually to figure out if they're even relevant before adding them to your list
❌ No Qualification
You're picking contacts based on title alone with no scoring against your product, segment, or persona fit
❌ Missed Contacts
You find the obvious VP but miss the Director who's actually the budget holder or the champion two levels down
⏱️ 20-30 minutes per company
The New Way
✓ Persona-Matched
Octave finds contacts that match your actual personas, not just title keywords
✓ Scored and Ranked
Every contact comes back with a qualification score and rationale so you know exactly who to prioritize
✓ Enriched Context
Each person includes role details, company context, and why they're a fit for your specific offering
✓ Entry Point Recommendation
Claude recommends who to reach out to first and why based on persona fit and likely buying role
⏱️ 2-3 minutes per company
What You Get
✓ Contact List
3-5 contacts at the target company, each matched to one of your Octave personas with enrichment details
✓ Per-Person Scoring
Qualification score (out of 10) with rationale for each contact, covering product fit, segment fit, and persona fit
✓ Best Entry Point
A recommendation on who to reach out to first, who the likely champion is, and who holds budget

Octave finds matching contacts
Octave calls find_person with the company domain and your target roles. It returns contacts that match your persona definitions, not just title strings.
3
Octave enriches each contact
For each person returned, Octave calls enrich_person to pull detailed context: role scope, background, company relationship, and anything relevant to your outreach.
4
Octave qualifies each contact against your ICP
Octave calls qualify_person for each contact, scoring them against your product, segment, and persona criteria. Each contact gets a fit score with rationale.
5
Review your ranked contact list
You get back a ranked list. For each person: name, title, persona match, qualification score, fit rationale, and enrichment highlights. Plus a recommendation on who to contact first.
Want to go deeper? Run a saved agent on any contact to enrich further, generate outreach, or kick off a full qualification workflow.
