OpenClaw for SDRs: Automate Research, Personalize Outreach

How OpenClaw-powered Pingd agents help SDRs automate lead research, enrich contacts, and compose personalized outreach — all from Slack.

Pingd Team

Your AI Prospecting Partner, Right in Slack

The SDR grind: 50+ activities a day, personalize every touch, and somehow make each prospect feel special. Half your day disappears into research tabs and data entry.

What if your Slack had an AI teammate that handled the busywork?

The 15-Minute Problem

Without an AI agent, researching one prospect takes 10–15 minutes:

  1. Search LinkedIn for the right persona
  2. Cross-reference ZoomInfo/Apollo for contact data
  3. Read their recent posts and company news
  4. Write a personalized email
  5. Log it in the CRM

At 50 prospects/day, that's impossible without cutting corners. Generic outreach → low reply rates → more volume needed. Vicious cycle.

Pingd breaks it.

Enrich Contacts Instantly

Once you've found a prospect, you need their info. One message:

"Enrich: Maria Santos, Director of RevOps at Lattice"

Your agent returns verified email, phone, full title, reporting structure, and social profiles — right in Slack. No tab switching.

Personalized Outreach That Actually Sounds Human

This is where Pingd destroys generic AI tools. The outreach composer doesn't just generate text — it combines research with writing:

Draft a cold email to Maria Santos at Lattice. She just posted about scaling rev ops with fewer tools.

Pingd Agent
Subject: Your "fewer tools" post resonated

Hi Maria,

Saw your post about consolidating the rev ops stack at Lattice — the part about reps drowning in tabs hit home.

We've been working on something that flips that. Instead of adding another dashboard, our AI agent lives in Slack and brings the insights to reps. One company saw their reps recover 2hrs/day of selling time.

Would a 15-min look make sense? Happy to show you with Lattice's actual workflow in mind.

Best,
[Your name]
✨ Based on: her LinkedIn post (Mar 8) + Lattice Series E context + your writing style

Not a template with {first_name}. A genuinely personalized message informed by real research.

You can iterate too: "Make it shorter" · "Add a PS about their Series E" · "Give me a LinkedIn version"

The 16-Minute Prospecting Block

Here's a real workflow with Pingd:

Step What Time
🔍 Find targets "Find directors of sales ops at mid-market SaaS, Bay Area, Series B-C" 2 min

It Gets Smarter Over Time

Your Pingd agent has persistent memory. After a few weeks it learns:

  • Which messaging angles get replies in your territory
  • Which personas respond fastest
  • Your personal writing style
  • Common objections in your vertical

First drafts start sounding like your writing. That's the power of an always-on agent — it's not starting from scratch every time.

Why Slack?

SDRs already live in Slack. Adding another tool creates friction. Your Pingd agent lives where you work because OpenClaw was built for channel-native agents:

  • No context switching — research, enrichment, and drafting happen where you already are
  • Always available — 6 AM prospecting? Late-night outreach prep? It's there.
  • Conversational — message it like a colleague, not a software UI

Pingd agents are built on OpenClaw — the open-source framework for AI agents with persistent memory and native Slack integration. See all skills →
