Firecrawl Lead Research

Enrich the people and companies the user supplies with Alexandria's people and company providers. The web can add context the request needs, such as recent news, but fields come from the providers.

For a meeting brief, follow meeting brief. For everything else (a person, a company, a list or CSV, a role check), follow the workflow below.

Workflow

1. Find the provider. List people providers with firecrawl find-tools --options '{"categories":["people"],"level":"providers","limit":20}' --json, or company providers with "categories":["companies"]. Pick the provider whose capabilities accept the identifiers the user gave (name and company, profile URL, email, domain) and return the fields they asked for.
2. Read the contract. firecrawl list <provider> --json lists its capabilities; firecrawl list <provider> <capability> --pretty shows the inputs and response for one.
3. Run it. firecrawl scrape <provider>/<capability> --options '<JSON matching the contract>' --json, with no URL. For a list, use the provider's bulk capability when it has one. Read every item in data.alexandria[]; an item can fail while the request succeeds.
4. Add web context when the request needs it. For recent news, talks or other published context, use firecrawl search "<query>" --sources web --json and firecrawl scrape "<url>" --json; a URL scrape returns the page itself, not a data.alexandria envelope. Do not use the web to fill fields the providers did not return.
5. Return the result in the format below.

Output

One person: full_name, job_title, company_name, company_domain, linkedin_url, location, work_email (only when asked for), and the source of each field.

One company: company_name, domain, industry, employee_count, founded, hq_location, total_funding with its latest round, linkedin_url, and the source of each field.
