Crabpitch — Outreach that runs itself

Crabpitch finds businesses that need what you sell, writes to the right person there, and brings their replies to your inbox. It runs every day on its own — approval is a switch, not a chore.

What it does

Find people who can actually buy

No buying a list and hoping. Crabpitch searches the open web for businesses that match your buyer and reads their own pages to find the right person.

Audience built from your website, not a dropdown
One contact per company, so you are not spamming a team
Anyone who opts out is never contacted again, by anyone

Send emails that read like you wrote them

Every email opens with something specific about that company, taken from a page Crabpitch actually read. That is the difference between a reply and a delete.

Short, plain, no template smell
Written from evidence, so it cannot flatter you into nonsense
Goes out unattended, with an approval step you can drop

Stop chasing and stop forgetting

Follow-ups go out on schedule and stop the moment someone answers. Nothing falls through, and nobody gets a fifth email after they replied.

Replies read and sorted by intent
Interested people pushed to the top of your inbox
Out-of-office handled without wasting a follow-up

Keep your domain out of the spam folder

The fastest way to ruin cold email is to send too much, too soon. Crabpitch will not let you, even if you ask it to.

Gradual warm-up and a hard daily ceiling
Human-looking gaps instead of a burst
Unsubscribe link and postal address on every message

How it is set up

Show us what you sell — Paste your website. Crabpitch reads your public pages and builds a factual product profile — no invented features or made-up metrics.
Approve who to contact — Review the roles and industries it proposes, add exclusions once, then let it keep finding people who match.
Shape the writing — Read sample emails and tell it what to change. Match your brand colours and layout if you want to.
Connect your mailbox — Your own mailbox, your own domain, your own daily limit. Replies land where you already work.
Let it run — It researches, writes, sends, follows up and stops on reply, every day, without you. Keep the approval step while you build trust, then switch it off.

What it will not do

We will not invent facts about you — Emails are built from your own published pages. If a claim cannot be traced to something you wrote, it does not go out.
We will not promise you a number — Anyone guaranteeing a lead count is guessing. Your results depend on your market and your offer. Try it free and judge the emails yourself.
We will not send from a shared pool — It goes out from your mailbox and your domain. Replies come to you, and your sender reputation stays yours.

In the first week

In 10 minutes: Your audience is built — Paste your website. Crabpitch reads it, works out who buys from you, and shows you the list of roles and industries to approve or change.
Same day: You read the actual emails — Sample emails written to real prospects, in your voice. Judge the quality before you connect a mailbox or pay anything.
Day two onward: Outreach starts, at a safe pace — Connect your mailbox and Crabpitch sends a small number each day, ramping up gradually so your domain stays healthy.
Ongoing: Replies come to you — Interested answers get flagged and follow-ups stop automatically. You spend your time on the conversations, not the chasing.

Questions and answers

Will this actually get me customers?

It gets you in front of the right people, reliably and without you doing the legwork. Whether they buy depends on your offer and your market, which no tool can control. That is exactly why the trial shows you real emails to real prospects before you pay: judge the quality yourself rather than taking our word for it.

How is this different from buying a lead list?

A list is a snapshot someone else scraped months ago, sold to everyone, and full of addresses that no longer work. Crabpitch reads company websites as they are today and only keeps a contact when the name, role and address are published there — so it can show you the page it came from.

Will it write things about my product that are not true?

That is the problem Crabpitch was built to avoid. Emails are grounded in a profile taken from your own pages, plus anything you tell us. Any draft with a number or promise you did not write is blocked before it can send.

Do I have to approve every email?

Only for as long as you want to. Research runs on its own from the start, while sending, answering questions and booking calls begin in review mode so you can read what it writes before a stranger does. Each of those four stages has its own switch, so you can hand over sending but keep replies yourself, or automate the lot.

What happens while I am not logged in?

Everything. It checks your mailbox every couple of minutes, sends what is cleared to go inside your working hours, looks for new companies hourly and sends follow-ups when they come due. You get an activity log of every run, including the ones it deliberately skipped and why.

Do I need a new email address?

No. You connect the mailbox you already use. We verify the connection before saving it, and your password is encrypted at rest.

Can I try it before paying?

Yes. The free trial researches leads and shows you sample emails. It cannot send email, so you can judge the quality with no risk to your domain.

How many emails will it send per day?

You set the limit, and it starts low. A new mailbox ramps up gradually, which protects deliverability far better than sending in bulk on day one. Higher monthly volumes need more mailboxes, and the pricing page says how many.

My email provider allows 1,000 a day. Why does Crabpitch only send 30?

They are limits on different things. Your provider is telling you how much mail it will accept from you before throttling. It says nothing about how much of that reaches an inbox, because Gmail and Outlook decide that at their end, and for mail to people who did not ask for it their tolerance is far lower than any host's rate limit. Sending a thousand cold emails a day from one mailbox is permitted by your host and will get your domain filtered within days. So 30 is not our ceiling to raise, it is the rate at which a domain keeps landing in inboxes, and it does not change with what you pay us. Aliases do not help either, since they carry the same domain reputation. Real volume comes from more mailboxes across more domains.

Is cold email legal?

Business-to-business outreach is permitted in many regions when you identify yourself and honour opt-outs, which Crabpitch does by default: every email carries an unsubscribe link, a postal address and a note saying where the details came from. Rules differ by country, so check what applies to your market.
