Prospecting gives you a purpose-built tool for agency new business. Instead of cold outreach based on guesswork, you can identify brands with weak AI visibility, show them exactly where the gap is, and use that insight as the foundation of your pitch.
Available exclusively on Agency Plus.
The core workflow:
Search for businesses by sector and location using AI-powered discovery
Generate a visibility report for each prospect automatically - this happens in the background as prospects move from "generating" to "ready"
Review the visibility report to see where the prospect is missing from AI-generated answers
Track them through a funnel as you make contact and move toward closing
Pitch using email templates tailored for AI visibility services
From the Prospects page in the agency sidebar, use the search tools to find businesses:
Search options:
By sector or industry (e.g., "dentists", "e-commerce software", "accounting firms")
By location (city, region, or country - useful for local or regional agencies)
The search uses AI to discover businesses matching your criteria - it is not a brand-name lookup of existing Rank Prompt brands. Each result is a newly discovered business you can evaluate as a potential client.
Once a prospect is added, a visibility report is automatically generated for them (the prospect moves from generating to ready). When ready, you can review their report to see exactly where they are missing from AI-generated answers - making it easy to identify the strongest pitch opportunities.
When you find a business worth pursuing:
Click Save or add them to your prospects
The prospect is added to your pipeline and a visibility report begins generating automatically
Once the report is ready (status moves to ready), you can review it and begin outreach
You can manage all your prospects from the Prospects dashboard, filtering by funnel stage or other criteria.
Every prospect moves through a set of funnel stages that reflect where they are in your pipeline:
Stage | Meaning |
|---|---|
new | Prospect discovered or added |
generating | AI is generating a visibility report for this prospect |
ready | Report generated - prospect is ready to pitch |
contacted | Outreach sent |
following_up | Follow-up sent |
replied | Prospect has replied |
won | Client acquired |
lost | Prospect not interested |
The transition from new to generating to ready happens automatically after you add a prospect - no manual action needed. From ready onward, you update the stage as you progress through outreach. This gives you a clear view of your pipeline at any time.
Rank Prompt includes pitch email templates designed around AI visibility insights. Use them to write compelling outreach emails that show prospects exactly what they're missing.
How to use pitch templates:
Open a prospect from your list
Select Compose pitch email or similar action
Choose a template
Customize with the prospect's specific data and your agency details
Send directly or copy to your email client
The pitch templates are designed to lead with data - showing the prospect their AI visibility gap before explaining how your agency can help.
The Prospects page shows:
All your prospects and their current funnel stage
The visibility report for each prospect (once generated)
Quick access to prospect details and outreach history
Filters by stage or search term
You can update funnel stages and archive closed or lost prospects to keep your active pipeline clean.
No. Prospecting is an Agency Plus exclusive feature.
Contact [email protected] for questions about bulk prospect imports or enterprise workflows.
No. Saving a prospect adds them to your prospecting pipeline only - it does not automatically create a tracked brand in your account. You can convert a prospect into a full brand when they become a client.
Prospect lists are visible to collaborators on your Agency Plus account who have access to the agency-level views.
The Outreach feature (available on Pro and above) is for building backlinks by contacting websites that AI platforms cite. Prospecting is for finding and pitching potential agency clients. They serve different purposes.
