Uncover new business leads with this AI-Powered Prospect Discovery Agent! This n8n workflow acts as a specialized intelligent assistant that, given a business type and location, uses multiple search strategies to identify a list of potential prospect companies and their websites.

Stop manually trawling through search results! This agent automates the initial phase of lead generation by: Understanding your target business profile (type, location, keywords). Strategically using web search tools (Brave Search, Google Gemini Search) to find relevant businesses. Performing quick validations to confirm relevance. Returning a clean, structured JSON list of prospect names and their website URLs.

How it Works:

The workflow is built around an AI agent powered by Google Gemini. This agent is equipped with tools like:

Brave Web Search: For broad initial sourcing of potential business candidates. Google Gemini Search: For advanced, context-aware discovery and finding businesses mentioned in various online sources. Brave Local Search (Selective): For quick verification of local presence or finding website URLs for identified names. Jina AI Web Page Scraper (Very Selective): For extremely rapid relevance checks on uncertain websites by scanning page content for keywords.
