1. SaaS platform displays search results to users for $0.002 a result (Preview API)
Who it’s for SaaS platforms (Clay, n8n, AI SDR tools), developers building lead discovery features. Problem SaaS platforms want to show search results to their users, but paying the full enrichment price for every displayed lead — before the user decides to buy contact data — makes “browse → decide → reveal” flows too expensive to build. What Generect enables Preview API returns masked cached lead data, such as name, title, company, location, industry, and seniority, with a unique lead ID. Browsing costs $0.002 per lead shown — a tenth of the database enrichment price — and the full price is paid only when a user reveals a profile or contact data. How it works- Your app sends ICP filters to
POST /preview/leads/ - Generect returns masked cached data: name, title, company, location, industry, seniority, and lead ID
- Your users browse and select leads
- Call
POST /enrich/database/lead/withidfor selected leads - Pay $0.002 per lead shown in step 2, and the enrichment price only for the ones your users select
- Cheaper browsing for end users (cached data)
- Pay only for actionable data (email, phone, or full profile)
- Higher conversion from “browse” to “purchase”
3. Real-time lead search with advanced filters (Search API - Realtime)
Who it’s for Account-based sales teams, recruiters, enterprise sales targeting niche personas. Problem Cached data may be outdated or lack granular filters. Teams targeting specific personas (e.g., “VP Engineering who changed jobs in last 6 months at Series B startups”) need realtime LinkedIn-grade filtering. What Generect enables/search/realtime/leads/ searches live data with advanced filters: keywords, past companies, schools, years in position, functions.
How it works

- Call
POST /search/realtime/leads/ - Get fresh, highly-targeted results (5-60 sec)
- Use for personalized outreach
- Up-to-date lead data
- Hyper-targeted lists for ABM campaigns

4. Find companies and their contacts in a single request (Search API)
Who it’s for B2B sales teams, partnerships managers, investors doing market mapping. Problem Teams need both company and decision-maker data in one flow. Currently requires two separate searches and manual matching. What Generect enables/search/database/company-leads/ or POST /search/realtime/company-leads/ returns companies matching your ICP together with their key contacts in a single request.
How it works

- Add lead filters: target roles, seniority

POST /search/database/company-leads/ - Get matched companies with their relevant contacts
- Company + contact data in one call
- No manual matching needed
