Build a LinkedIn B2B Lead Scraper (Extract Commenters from Viral Posts)

In B2B sales, cold outreach is getting harder. Response rates are dropping because everyone is using the same automated tools to spam the same lists. The secret to high-converting B2B outreach is intent . If someone comments on a viral LinkedIn post about "The struggles of managing AWS infrastructure," and you sell an AWS management tool—that person is a warm lead.

It handles all the proxy rotation, headless browser management, and CAPTCHA solving on the backend. You just make a simple API call. Prerequisites
