An Insider's View of Prophet II Extension

Posted by Jonathan Kidder on December 23, 2018November 30, 2020

This past week Prophet II was officially launched to (100) Beta users. Was I one of the lucky Talent Sourcers to make the cut? Unfortunately, I was NOT! But, thankfully I was graciously given an insiders view from my friend Greg Hawkes. A quick overview Prophet II is a contact finding extension that was recently upgraded from there initial launch from 3 year ago. Below is a quick rundown of what Prophet II offers:

Dashboard:

Once you login you are directed right to a dashboard view page. From that page you can see the search bar, lists, account view, and an about section.

Searching Features:

It’s certainly a step up from the first version – which only allowed you to view and find info directly on a users social media profiles. You now have a dashboard area where you can directly search within the tool. You can search for job titles, locations, companies, skills, and exclusions. The search area auto-fills with suggested search-terms. After you selected your search criteria the tool goes out and searches the web for targeted matches. I do not know if they are using (AI) matching technology.

Creating Lists:

Once you’ve clicked the search button. The tool presents a list of qualified matched leads. You can view each users background and can add them to different lists. You can also select to have this tool find that users contact details – which includes personal email addresses and cell numbers. Once your search is complete you can add users to different lists and then export that data into a CSV file.

External Extension Tool:

You can still use the external extension to find profile information. For example, you can view a profiles on Facebook or LinkedIn. It will give you a list of cross-referenced information and also get verified contact information. A new upgrade — you can now directly add users to lists. I’m also hoping that they’ve upgraded there data to find more info. Overall, it’s a nice update from the original version.

Here’s a video recap of all it’s features:

Maybe someday Greg Hawkes will put me in one of his videos??!!
