What is an AI agent for contact research and ICP?+
An AI contact research and ICP agent is a customer-facing service that B2B research agency owners can offer to a client choosing accounts or professional roles to research. It delivers an evidence-linked contact assessment against the client's written ICP. The client opens the agent's own page and URL, supplies lead record, PDL access, recent company sources and ICP document, and works through the task by text or voice. With Agentplace, you supply the expertise and configure the tools behind this service.
What does the client receive from this contact research and ICP agent?+
An evidence-linked contact assessment against the client's written ICP. Research the company or role against explicit criteria, retain sources and distinguish confirmed fields from assumptions. Explain the match rather than reducing it to an unexplained score. The client can change a criterion and inspect the resulting shortlist. The current result is presented through the agent's own interface, so the client can inspect it and ask for changes instead of treating a message thread as the final deliverable.
How does this differ from a website with a chatbot?+
Keep personal activity, company facts and fit criteria distinct. Research the company or role against explicit criteria, retain sources and distinguish confirmed fields from assumptions. Explain the match rather than reducing it to an unexplained score. The client can change a criterion and inspect the resulting shortlist. The agent performs the configured service and updates the result on its whole page. A separate chat widget can answer questions, but connecting those answers to the active service record, visual result and tools takes additional implementation.
What knowledge and connections should I provide?+
Provide your ideal-client criteria, permitted sources, evidence standards and export fields, together with examples covering lead record, PDL access, recent company sources and ICP document. The original task includes tools such as People Data Labs, Perplexity, Claude, Google Docs, Slack, Gmail, Apify LinkedIn Scraper, HubSpot / CRM. Choose and configure the providers required for your offer. These names describe connection options, not a claim that every integration or older model version is included or currently available. Source access must be permitted and configured. Public data or a fit score does not establish buying intent, contact permission or decision-making authority.
Can a client change the brief after the first result?+
Revise the ICP document and show which prior matches change. The agent revises the affected result and keeps accepted details in context instead of making the client restart the entire task. The agent explains the implications and keeps the accepted version distinct from a proposed revision.
Can I charge for this service?+
Sell a prospect research session or a verified shortlist package. Export the agreed records and unresolved fields to the client's chosen CRM or sheet. Explain the service scope and configure the relevant payment or delivery provider before offering it to clients. Payment for the agent's work is distinct from third-party usage costs or a separate purchase.
Is this preview a live service?+
No. It is a static fictional example. Client names, records, source observations and results shown in the preview are illustrative. Create your own agent, provide your knowledge and configure the required tools to offer this service.
What platform does the AI contact research and ICP agent run on?+
It runs on Agentplace. Agentplace is an AI agent platform where the agent gets its own page, talks to your visitors there, and carries the request through to the end instead of handing it to a form. You can open this template and change any step before you publish it.
