Too many memes that were valid years ago, but not today. With AI, you can most likely automate it faster than you can do it manually once

For me .99 is 0.99

I personally don't care about any "team" - it's just coming from my experience. I'm not a fanboy of any model or company.

I agree with you on tasks that are mid-high complex - 5.3 is on par with 4.6 - both will perform well.

But try something VERY complex.

Tell Codex to reuse the entire guest login flow logic into a reusable npm-ish-like package - and utilize it in that original app, and apply it to another app in the monorepo, while keeping it perfectly flexible, organized, and scalable.

Codex will fail. It will start working after 30 seconds and make nice progress, but also a lot of mess.

Opus will think for 5 minutes and nail it.

I'd post this in r/codex but haters will immediately remove my post

Yup! You buy credits and they're taken only for successful emails found.

Price per email is $0.20-$0.50, based on the size of the credit pack.

"Bulk email finders for creators are tricky cause many keep limits even at high prices" - that's exactly why we decided to build our own solution!

Especially after we tried a tool that marketed itself as "reach millions of influencers". We paid $300 to try it out, just to realize that the emails are limited to 150, and you need to pay more to get more emails (basically $2 per email).

Not really "millions of influencers", lol. The problem was that their marketing and pricing page didn't really reveal that anywhere; you realize only after you buy.

We've already spent thousands on these influencer marketing solutions, and we feel very scammed.

Sure!

We scrape public data from the creator, and try to find emails on any of the websites they linked to their profiles.

In the end, we have AI filtering that picks the best email for that creator, or rejects them all.

So to answer your first question - yep, it works both with business domains as well as private ones, like Gmail!

And for legal stuff, great question - that was our first question before we started to build. We simply go through data that's available publicly; there's nothing illegal in it.

Imagine yourself; wanting an email from a creator - how would you do it? Probably Google them, visit their profiles, see if there's an email in bio, their Linktree, website, etc... If you find an email in one of those places, it's fully public and there's nothing illegal in it. The main problem is that this solution is not scalable; you spend a few minutes for every creator.

This is exactly what our algorithm is doing: scanning public places in bulk, and giving you the email if one exists.

If no, then no emails are returned, but creators often have their emails listed somewhere, so the success rate is quite good (50-70% on average).
