 "title": "Look up companies, people and work emails for sales",
 "page_title": "How to look up companies, people and work emails for sales with Bops",
 "summary": "Ask bots to research companies, contacts, hiring and funding news, and local businesses for outreach.",
 "who": "A sales or business development person who needs fresh company and contact details before reaching out to prospects.",
 "problem": "Building a prospect list by hand means checking many sources for company facts, people, work emails and recent news.",
 "outcome": "A bot returns company, person, email, phone, news, hiring and funding details, with each lookup costing cents, and asks you before pricier lookups or before emailing someone it found.",
 "steps": [
  "Sign in to Bops in the app and open the chat with Boppy.",
  "Ask Boppy to look up a company or a person, such as <company-or-person-name>.",
  "Review the returned company, people, work email and news details.",
  "Approve any pricier lookup the bot asks about.",
  "Approve or decline any email to a person the bot found, even if you use Just do it."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the OrgoAI/bops repo, describe how a user asks the bot team to research <company-name> and list the data types it can return, such as company, people, work emails, phones, news, hiring and funding. Expected output is a short list of those data types and which lookups require user approval. Verify each data type against the README's lookup section before reporting.",

 "difficulty": "Beginner",
 "time": "15 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README says lookups cost cents each and does not give a per-lookup price list, so check the cost in the app before running many lookups.",

 "lang": "typescript",
 "requirements": [
  "A Mac with Apple silicon (required for the app and for self-hosting)",
  "A Bops account, signed in with Google, email or Orgo",
  "For self-hosting: Node 22 or newer, an Orgo account, an OpenAI API key and a restricted OpenAI key with a spend limit for tasks (OPENAI_EXECUTOR_API_KEY)",
