Feedback for Tool Idea: Fully Automated Outreach

I have a collection of Python scripts that automate significant portions of my outreach process. It wouldn't be too challenging to combine them and offer a tool that performs the entire outreach process (nearly) automatically.

The tool would work as follows:

1. Select the page or domain you want to promote and choose a campaign type (niche edit, guest posts, offer money or not, etc.).
2. The tool then:
   • a) Finds relevant outreach targets (topically relevant)
   • b) Locates their email addresses
   • c) Crafts (somewhat) personalized emails based on provided templates or ideas
   • d) Sends out the emails staggered over time (with an option to review and edit before sending)

The tool wouldn't handle replies or negotiations, although it might be technically possible.
Advantages:

• Much faster and easier than manual outreach

Disadvantages:

a) Automated crawling may draft emails to unsuitable targets (e.g., webmd) or miss some opportunities that a human would have found
b) AI-written outreach emails often suck. Can be fixed somehow with prompting, but I'm not gonna expect great outreach emails until GPT5 gets released.

The tool may not be as effective as a dedicated, trained human outreacher (yet), but it would significantly streamline the process.

Questions:

1) Is this a tool you would consider paying for?
2) Does something like that already exist (to my knowledge not, just tools for the individual parts of the process)

to me, this looks like a cold emailing tool so I think it's as good as any other such service / tool. But I've been out of the SEO game for 2+ years, so I don't know, I might be missing something...

all the cold emailing tools I know still require lots of manual work. But I didnt try all of them, thats mostly why I'm asking if something like that exists already.

For example, in Buzzstream, I first gotta manually search for relevant keywords and which sites rank, then find the emails (e.g. plug into hunter, search contact pages, etc), then put it into buzzstream, craft templates / emails, personalize each email if I want better response rate, then send. Lots of manual steps. My idea is, you plugin your page you want to promote and all those steps happen automatically in the background. But maybe people don't mind doing that manually (I hate it).

yeah, it looks better

Personally, I'm not interested in such a tool, but there must be people who are. If you've already bundled everything into a working product you can try to sell it in the marketplace and see how much interest it gathers. I can see that you're already a Jr. Vip member, so you'll only need to pay $30-ish for the BST to go live...

Yes, this is definitely a paid tool.

Maybe few emails as a free trial or part of a free account.

This sounds like the same approach Respona is taking. If you do end up making something I'm definitely interested and more than willing to test as well.
