Happened to come across a post here which triggered an opportunity. Thought I should get your opinion here.

Currently run a successful Instagram growth firm. I'm the developer of our platform. For marketing I had to develop a tool that would go and fish Instagram's account's email based on location, hashtag, suggestion..... No not the email in bio but the email that account was originally created with. We have way over million emails as we do mass emailing for our service. I also created a small tool that (kinda) validates each email address before we send cold email. Trust me we never had a pay a dime for marketing due to this, although we have tried many facebook and google ads but nothing beats this cold email strategy for us. Oh by the way did I mention that we collect their mobile phone numbers as well? We tried Whatsapp bulk messaging but haven't fully seen results just yet but it does look promising.

So the question...

Would coming up with a platform that let subscribers (marketers) do their own email scraping in their niche based on #hashtags, location be a good idea? Thought did cross my mind when I was developing our marketing email scraping tool but never got around to it. What do you guys think?

I was also thinking of maybe partnering up with some marketing genius here and exchange values?

For us this tool is goldmine but not sure how much value it will bring to the world. I'm assuming it should be pretty valuable for any business right? All they do with Facebook or google ads is send them to their landing pages to collect email addresses. This can skip the hard the non-sense and get right to business (just thinking out loud)...

What would you do with this tool if you had it? How would you monetize it? Lets hear you thoughts....
 
Seems like a good idea to me. Probably the big thing to think about would be if you really want to divert your time and attention away from your agency and do this. It's not a trivial task to create a fully functional SaaS product with user support, payment integration, and scraping across dozens or hundreds ot users- not to mention customer support and a handful of other things that go along with having a service like that.

Not to deter you, but something to think about for sure.
 
Completely agree but how much these emails are worth? Say for 1000 emails (vetted) how much should 1 charge?
