New Year, new me! Or maybe… New Year, new features in Growbots? I know the start of the year can be a bit slow. After Christmas and New Year's Eve, it's not always easy to get back into routine. But we are not slowing down! We are coming to you with new features and improvements that we hope will change your experience with the app for the better.

Would you be interested in all the changes we implemented last year? Read about them here!


August & September 2024

🏫 Expanded Database of Profiles - Profiles count is now 187.3M, and Companies count is now 12.9M. Don't waste your time, and look for these hot leads!

📈 Specific companies filter - 500 specific companies are not enough? What about 5,000? You can now search for 10x more companies in both Explore & Campaigns!

📟 Data update - the following sections have been updated: Hiring, Intent, IT Spending, Funding, Website Traffic. Enjoy all the valid information about companies and prospects from our database!

📥 Shared Inbox - we know how frustrating it was before, and we listened to your requests. Now, with our new Shared Inbox feature, you can send multiple follow-up messages directly from the app and preview their history. Stay on top of those hot leads and close deals faster.


July 2024

🧭 Campaigns from Explore tab - you've explored your target for a while, found the right filter set for your ICP, and want to scale your Outbound effort? You can now do it easily with Create Campaign From Filters button! Also, the Clear all filters button is now easier accessible, being on top of the filters instead of the very end of the list.

🚚 Deliverability Dashboard - connect your email, check your DNS records, and make sure if your emails are performing well by checking Reply Rates and Open Rates. That's not all - check your sending limits, your general Deliverability Rates and Deliverability Rates per email provider. Also, with just one click you'll be able to edit your email's settings, make sure your deliverability is in place by performing a test, change sending limits, and see scheduled prospects. And all of that on just one page - hard to believe, right? Read more here!

🖇️ Prospects’ LinkedIn links - they are now available in the Explore tab. You can qualify prospects while being better informed, as you'd do it in a campaign creation process.

✅ Accepted tab - you can now move prospects to another campaign directly from the Accepted tab, without needing to move them back to the New Contacts tab, find them there, and then move them again! Also, keep in mind that prospects moved from the Accepted tab will still land in the New Contacts tab of the target campaign.

📧 The group sending limits edit - this long-awaited feature has been released! Need to change the sending limits for multiple channels? We know how time-consuming it used to be. But no more - now, you can change the limits in bulk and save time for other tasks, like prospecting or creating campaigns from filters you set up in the Explore tab.


June 2024

💸 New pricing - on June 5th we released our new pricing that is available for the new customers. We made it even more tailored for your needs - you can find more details here! And on this website, you can see our pricing configurator. Feel free to looks for the best solution!

🧑‍✈️ AI autoprospecting autopilot - this feature will check the prospect’s website whenever the information in our database is insufficient to determine if the prospect is a good match. You can see whether a website check was necessary in the decision comments for each prospect. Also, it works for imported prospects as well - you can see progress while on Prospecting tab. Prospecting has never been that easy!

❌ Prospecting tab update - now, you can bring back rejected prospects to New contacts in the campaign prospecting process.

📟 Data update - the following sections have been updated: Hiring, Intent, IT Spending, Funding, Website Traffic, Technologies. Enjoy all the valid information about companies and prospects from our database!


April and May 2024

📮 Send immediately - this option is now no longer overpromising its capabilities. When scheduling & rescheduling prospects, you can decide to send the initial/next message at the next available slot. We changed the name to send next message on the nearest free sending slot to avoid any confusion!

👩‍💼 Job positions within the company filter - now, you can easily pinpoint companies based on their employee compositions, whether you're identifying skill gaps or targeting firms with specific expertise.

🧑‍💻 IT Spending filter - now, you have a feature that lets you filter companies by their annual technology spending → covering services, outsourcing, equipment, and software.

🏫 Expanded Database of Profiles - Profiles count is now 184.6M, and Companies count is now 12.6M.


March 2024

🚦 Page Traffic and Page Traffic Change - you can now filter companies by their daily webpage visits, instead of relying just on an estimated page rank. Building upon SEMrush's page traffic data, you can also filter not just by companies' daily webpage visits, but also by their month-to-month changes.

☎️ Direct dials - we've got another small but long-awaited update for you: you can now filter prospects with direct dials directly within the campaign targeting! This functionality, previously limited to the Explore tab, is now seamlessly integrated into campaign targeting. Now, you can efficiently narrow down your prospects based on direct dials without switching between different sections.

📧 Email Service Provider filters - now you can exclude or focus on specific email receivers when generating new prospects! New filters (listed under website technologies) include:

  • Microsoft 365 Business Email (Outlook)

  • Google Workspace Email (Gmail)

  • Zoho Mail

  • Rackspace Email

  • Bluehost Email

  • Yahoo Email

  • Mimecast

  • Barracuda Networks

  • GoDaddy Email

  • PPHosted

  • OVH Email

  • Cloudflare Email

  • Amazon WorkMail

✅ DMARC record - app now feedbacks you on whether your channels have a valid DMARC record setup, and checks for SPF, DKIM & DMARC are visible by default to underline their importance. We also added a UserGuiding hotspot to help you understand what’s happened and what to do if your accounts suddenly were marked as a spam risk.


February 2024

📧 Gmail integration - so far, our Customers had to guess that connecting Gmail via IMAP/SMTP occurs via Other email integration, and it caused a lot of confusion. Now, we added a separate button for it, so it’s clear where to start if you want to use the warm-up feature to the fullest. If you wish to use Warmbots - our warm-up tool - make sure to connect your email with the first Google button (with IMAP/SMTP).

🏫 Expanded Database of Profiles: Profiles count increased to 188.3M, and Companies count increased to 12.7M - as of 10.02.2023, next refresh coming in ~ 3 months!

📱 Mobile app filter - we’ve just released a brand-new filter to both our All-in-One campaigns and Explore tab. You’ll find a mobile app filter in Company Website section that allows you to find companies that have their own mobile app. Let’s play with the target even more!

📈 Data update - this time we've extended the list of available Website Technologies with 505 more technologies, f.e.: Cloudflare Hosting; Office 365 Mail; U.S. Server Location; Google Apps for Business; Microsoft Azure DNS. It might be especially helpful if you’re having some deliverability issues.

🧭 Explore tab - now, the Explore tab is loading much faster! Here's the scoop - we've divided the loading process into two phases to enhance speed. By splitting the loading process, we've significantly improved the speed of accessing the Explore view, addressing previous slowdowns. Time is money, and we know how important each minute can be in the outbound world.


January 2024

📺 New Dashboard with Benchmark - the layout of the dashboard has changed, and we introduced Last week's statistics tile next to the Marketplace tile and a Benchmark tab on a common tile with statistics. Check it out here and let us know what you think: click!

💵 Hiring & Funding Data Update - 308,388 companies were updated in January. Changes consist of updated open positions, number of open positions, total funding & last funding.

Also, I can already tell you that we’re currently testing a few more things that will be available very soon. And what can I say… It’s just the beginning of the year. ;)
