Description
Funkel AI is a B2B outbound tool built around a specific idea: start from the moment a buyer shows real intent, not from a generic contact list or a fixed follow-up sequence. It is the successor product to PhantomFlow, which automated social marketing for small teams; Funkel AI narrows that into buyer-intent outbound specifically.

The product starts by reading a company's own website to draft a buyer profile (target titles, industries, company size, geography), then monitors a set of sources for signals that match it: Hacker News posts mentioning a relevant problem, LinkedIn profile and activity changes, X posts about pain points or competitors, inbound company rows from Clay, or an uploaded CSV of target companies. For each signal, Funkel AI resolves the real person behind it, checks buyer fit, and keeps the original proof, the post, profile change or company row, attached to the lead, so a user can see why that person was surfaced before approving anything.
Once a lead is approved, Funkel AI drafts outreach that references the specific reason the person was contacted, and can route it through a connected LinkedIn, X or email account, subject to daily sending limits meant to protect account safety. Campaigns can run automatically or wait for manual approval at each step, and replies come back with a drafted response the user can edit before sending. Discovery and public identity checks use no credits; a successful LinkedIn profile resolution uses 4 credits.
Funkel AI runs on a single paid plan, Growth, at $99 a month, with discounts for quarterly or annual billing, which includes 200 monthly source credits, two sender accounts (LinkedIn, X or email), unlimited campaigns and saved leads, a shared reply inbox, and Calendly/Cal.com booking sync. The company offers a money-back guarantee if no qualified leads are found within the first 30 days. It integrates with Slack, HubSpot, Clay, Zapier, Make, n8n, Telegram and Calendly, and exposes an MCP connection for Claude and other AI tools. Funkel AI is built for B2B founders, SDRs, agencies and lean sales teams that want a repeatable path from a public buying signal to a reviewed, sent message, rather than a large, undifferentiated contact list.
