Production-style replay. Based on a real campaign creation flow used inside Lode Leads.
This is real, unedited data
The leads below come directly from a production campaign run on the platform. Nothing was cherry-picked or cleaned up — you're seeing the same output the user received in their Excel export.
Filters drive accuracy
Our job is to help you tighten filters — rating thresholds, price levels, review minimums, categories — so the AI scores leads more accurately for your specific use case.
We don't guarantee conversion
Lead quality depends entirely on your filters, persona description, and scoring thresholds. Lode Leads finds, scores, and enriches — but whether a lead converts is up to how well your filters match your actual business needs. The tighter your criteria, the higher the qualification rate.
