Five source types
Use Apollo, Manual Import, Keyword Search, Conference Search, or AI Discovery based on what you already know.
Flexible contact discovery
Bring the right contacts into one reviewable workflow.
Search, generate, or import contacts from several sources. Review the results, choose the relevant people, and save them to Contact Lists before using them in a campaign.
Contact Sources
OpenComment
1
Choose a source
Match the source to the information you have, from a file to an audience description.
2
Run the search or import
Collect candidate contacts without automatically enrolling them in outreach.
3
Review the results
Select the people who fit the work you intend to do.
What it brings together
The source should not dictate the rest of your workflow.
A founder may begin with an Apollo search, a spreadsheet, a set of LinkedIn URLs, a keyword, a conference, or a description of an ideal audience. OpenComment gives those starting points a common review-and-save flow.

Questions and answers
Contact Sources FAQ
Which contact sources does OpenComment support?
OpenComment supports Apollo, Manual Import from CSV, Excel, or LinkedIn URLs, Keyword Search, Conference Search, and AI Discovery.
Does saving a contact start monitoring or a campaign?
No. Saving creates Contact List membership. You choose saved contacts or Contact Lists separately when you author a campaign.
Does Conference Search confirm event attendance?
No. It researches people posting publicly about a conference. A public post is useful context, but it is not confirmation that someone attended or plans to attend.
