- Is this legal, or is it spam?
- Hailr writes to businesses through the contact form each one publishes on its website or, on Growth, an email address found on that website. You are the sender, so the outreach laws where you and the recipients are apply to you, such as CAN-SPAM, GDPR and CASL. Every email carries an unsubscribe link, and a website that unsubscribes is not contacted again by any of your campaigns. Read section 4 of the terms, Acceptable Use
- Can I see the companies and the message before anything is sent?
- Before launch, the wizard shows your buyer profiles and your message written for three example companies, and you can edit both. After launch, each company appears on the campaign page as it is found and checked, with its one sentence summary. Sending starts automatically while the search runs, and the first contact forms can go out within minutes, so review the preview first and pause whenever you like.
- What if the AI gets my audience wrong?
- You see the buyer profiles before anything runs: switch one off, edit its keywords, or ask for a new angle and get fresh profiles. Every company the AI finds is then judged against your goal and shown with its reason, so you can pause and adjust after the first results. A message that does not go through costs nothing.
- How do I know a message arrived?
- After each submit Hailr reads the form's own server answer first, then the page. A message counts as delivered when the form was submitted successfully (confirmed or very likely sent) or when your mail server accepted the email. The campaign page shows every message with its status, and a failed attempt costs nothing.
- How fast do the first messages go out?
- Checking and sending start while the search is still running, so the first contact forms can go out minutes after you launch. Each campaign sends at the speed you pick, and emails on Growth go at the pace you set for your own email account.
- What do I need to start?
- A description of what you sell, or your website address, and a sender name. The AI, the Google search, CAPTCHA solving and proxies are included on Pay as you go, Starter and Growth, so there are no accounts to connect. Until your first payment, your account runs one search of up to 1,500 Google searches; after that, buy messages from $10 or pick a monthly plan.
- What reply rate should I expect?
- We do not promise one. Replies depend on your offer, your message and who you write to, so start with the 25 free messages and read the answers. On Growth, the lead inbox collects the replies from people and links each one to the company you wrote to.
