Works in Chat, Cowork and Code
Growth channel research and benchmarking
Research how successful companies in your category grew — acquisition channels, viral mechanics, referral programs, and community strategies. Don't experiment blindly; build on what's already proven to work.
Growth analysis complete. Figma: multiplayer editing created organic sharing loops — 60% of new signups from collaborator invites. Linear: invite-only exclusivity drove waitlist virality, dev Twitter community. Loom: video messaging replaced email in remote teams — each sent Loom created an awareness touchpoint. Common thread: product-led virality where every use case is also a distribution event.
High-intent lead prospecting
Find and build lists of your ideal early adopters, beta users, or B2B prospects using professional data. Target by job title, company size, industry, and location to build a qualified pipeline for outbound growth campaigns.
Found 247 contacts matching criteria. Top clusters: SF Bay Area (67), NYC (48), Austin (31). Job title distribution: Head of Growth (112), VP Marketing (89), Growth Lead (46). Average company size: 180 employees. List includes name, title, company, LinkedIn, and company website.
Community and Reddit growth research
Identify where your target audience congregates online. Research subreddits, Facebook groups, and online communities to find high-density populations of your ideal users — and understand the conversations, pain points, and language they use.
Top subreddits: r/freelance (612K members, avg 340 upvotes on tool posts), r/entrepreneur (3.2M, more varied), r/digitalnomad (610K, remote work tools popular), r/webdev (1.6M, dev-adjacent tools). Top upvoted topics: cost-saving tool swaps, "I replaced X with Y" comparison posts, contrarian takes on popular tools.
SEO and keyword opportunity discovery
Find high-opportunity keywords your competitors haven't fully captured. Identify informational, navigational, and transactional keyword clusters to build landing pages, comparison content, and SEO-driven acquisition funnels.
Found 67 keywords with purchase intent. Top opportunities: "time tracking app freelancers" (3,600/mo, KD 38, Toggl dominates), "invoice timer app" (1,200/mo, KD 22, underserved), "hourly billing tracker" (880/mo, KD 18, weak competition). 12 keywords with KD <30 and >500 monthly searches — ideal for new content.
Viral content and hook research
Analyze what content is going viral in your category across TikTok, Twitter, and Reddit. Decode the hook structure, format, and angles that drive shares, and apply these patterns to your own growth content.
Top performing formats: "day in the life of a $1M ARR founder" (avg 2.3M views), "I automated my entire business with these 5 tools" (avg 1.8M views), before/after revenue reveals with credible numbers. Hook pattern: specific number in first 3 words. Most shares: contrarian takes ("I stopped using [popular tool]"). Optimal length: 34–52 seconds.
Competitor growth intelligence
Research competitor growth tactics — their SEO footprint, ad spend patterns, social following growth, and product-led acquisition mechanics. Identify what's working for them and find gaps you can exploit.
Growth channel breakdown: Calendly dominates SEO (72K organic keywords, "schedule meeting" category). Heavy ad spend — 89 active Facebook ads, mostly "upgrade to Pro" retargeting. Product virality: every Calendly link is an impression (estimated 47% of signups organic from booked meetings). Cal.com: OSS community + developer advocate program. Doodle: declining — light ad spend, weak SEO.
