In October 2026 I built an AI‑driven LinkedIn outreach prototype as part of an operations interview.
The brief: build an AI product scout the target customers on LinkedIn, without putting the sender’s account at risk.
Search for founders whose profiles list she/her pronouns.
The extension runs in the browser, reads LinkedIn search result DOM, saves visible results, captures all readable profile text with a one‑click button, then runs several independent scoring checks.
A note is drafted only when all checks pass.
When a draft is generated the UI overlays Approve, Edit, and Reject buttons; only Approve copies the note for the user to paste manually, keeping the process human‑in‑the‑loop.
The use cases go beyond the obvious: recruiting, job search, partnerships, anywhere you need to find the right people and send the first message.
I am still exploring which language model powers the note generation and how many profiles can be processed before LinkedIn throttles the session.
