How Distill works
Personal LinkedIn and email outreach. AI handles the grunt work but humans stay in the loop for strategy, audience accuracy, and replies.
Search, enrichment, and research
Bring a list, or have Distill find companies and people matching your criteria. Distill finds and validates prospect email addresses and verifies in real time that each person is still in the right role at the right company.
Distill searches Google for each person and connects information from articles, interviews, podcasts, posts, and other sources. That research helps assess fit and inform personal outreach.
Network paths and shared connections
Distill finds promising introduction paths and shows evidence of how people know each other. You approve introduction requests, and Distill handles the requests and follow up.
Illustrative relationship evidence
Connector and prospect worked at the same companyOverlapping work history suggests a possible relationship. Review the evidence before requesting an introduction.
Introduction not yet requested
Distill can also reference mutual connections in personal messages, including connections who are customers.
Illustrative connection and message
“Nice to see you already know Sean Smith, who I know through working with his company.”
Example context: Sean is a customer contact of the sender and a mutual connection with the prospect.
LinkedIn and email outreach
Send a connect request with a personal note. Distill uses research to write in your voice and coordinates personalized messages and follow up across LinkedIn and email.
You can review messages before sending or let Distill send them. Wait times and follow up are configurable. A reply on either channel stops the outreach sequence across both.
If the prospect connects, Distill continues on LinkedIn and can follow up by email if there is no reply.
When needed, Distill buys a dedicated sending domain, creates and warms sending mailboxes, and manages email deliverability practices.
Response handling and delegation
Tell Distill when to respond, when you want to step in, and when to delegate to someone on your team.
Human involvement
Distill’s software and automation power the research and coordinated outreach. People help manage replies and improve the approach with you.
Getting started and customer controls
Share who you want to reach, what you offer, and your reason to connect. Bring any existing prospect list and specify how replies and team delegation should work.
Review targeting and messaging before outreach begins. Change the approach or take over conversations whenever you choose.
We’ll handle the research, outreach, and scheduling so you arrive with meetings booked with the right prospects.
