Independently funded, no growth chase
No external investor demanding 40 % annual growth. If the product runs stable and pays fairly, that's enough for me - and it leaves more time to actually maintain the tool.
About LeadScout
Why LeadScout exists.
A carefully maintained product from Germany. Built to help you find new customers easily - and actually know how to reach out to them without sounding like spam.
How it started.
I'm a freelancer. Like many solopreneurs, I had a problem: prospecting was eating my weekends. Hours of Googling, copying imprints, maintaining spreadsheets - just to end up with five half-decent leads.
In 2025 I started automating it for myself. AI for analysis, Google Places for discovery, a bit of Python glue and Playwright for crawling. Within weeks the tool produced better leads than a whole month of manual research.
When friends asked to use it, I cleaned it up, added auth, wired Stripe - and now it's open to everyone. At the cost of the APIs it runs on, plus a bit for my time.
What you can expect from LeadScout.
Fair pricing, transparent math
From €9/month. Each analysis costs me ~€0.03 in OpenRouter + Google Places. The margin covers hosting and my time - nothing more.
Data stays in the EU
Supabase EU region Frankfurt for accounts, only public sources for company data, GDPR-compliant from day one.
You get me directly
No support ticket maze, no chatbot, no 'we'll get back to you in 5 business days'. You email, I reply.
What LeadScout is not.
- Not an enterprise tool with five-figure annual contracts.
- Not a dark-pattern storefront with hidden limits or auto-upgrade traps.
- Not a data broker - we don't resell leads, your searches are yours alone.
- Not a mass-mail cannon - the AI drafts suggestions, you decide what goes out.
