Hello Product Hunt Community!
I’m Bob Newman, Head of Sales at Redrob, and I’m excited to introduce People Search GPT—a high-signal, AI-powered people search engine that makes finding and connecting with the right professionals easier than ever.
Why We Built It:
For startups and SMBs, one meaningful connection can change everything—whether it’s finding the perfect investor, hiring a unicorn candidate, or closing a big deal. But the search process isn’t always simple:
🤔 You may have a general idea of who you need, but narrowing it down takes time.
🦄 Manually reviewing profiles can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack.
💰 Tools like ZoomInfo and LinkedIn Recruiter are expensive, putting search behind a hefty paywall.
That’s why we built People Search GPT—an AI-powered search engine that helps you instantly find and connect with the
right people using natural language.
How It Works:
No complex filters. No endless scrolling. Just type who you’re looking for, and People Search GPT scans 700M+ profiles to deliver a refined list of matching professionals—complete with verified phone numbers, emails, social links, and AI-powered insights—at a fraction of the cost.
Who It’s For
Founders, recruiters, sales teams, fundraisers—literally anyone who relies on professional connections.
What’s Next?
We’re working on:
AI agents that can book meetings on autopilot.
Built-in incentives to engage top prospects.
Seamless payment solutions for global hires.
Smart integrations to predict needs and improve results.
🎁 We’re giving the Product Hunt community up to 6 months of free premium access to People Search GPT to celebrate our launch!
All we ask is for your feedback—whether it’s UX improvements, feature requests, use cases, or testimonials, we’re all ears.
Try it out and let us know what you think!
Let’s build the future of people search together! 🚀
minimalist phone: creating folders
@bnewms From which database are those people found? Like what are the sources? LinkedIn? RocketSearch? Official company websites? (Just want to know what is the relevancy of info so I have curious questions) 😃
Hi @busmark_w_nika! Thanks for the question. Our data source and algorithm operate on an aggregator system, pulling from 10+ sources, including our proprietary database of over 3 million profiles.
Hi @masump, Good question! Yes, early versions of that features is live now. We’re actively refining it to make it even smoother and more intuitive. Check it out—we’d love your feedback!
@bnewms Congrats on the launch and this is something I would use daily if it works well. Been playing with today and a few comments. The AI model does not seem to recognize "early stage" or "seed", etc for company in the Prompt...so I must edit. Removing company name then produces extensive results, and needing more filtering by some "company" name. As a recruiter, I don't always know the company I'm targeting, more often the types of talent I'm seeking, and company size.
The results list (that I see) are by 10 results a time, which is a lot of page clicks, so I'd prefer selection options of 50, 100, 250, etc on larger dataset results, so I can more easily scroll to see if they are close to my targets.
I currently use several other similar data scraping tools, and like the idea of more AI Prompt friendly options for my team. The other tools all have some pros/cons...and I do like what you are trying to accomplish. The AI Agents using video is a neat feature. The AI text copy for the Video/ AI Agent was a bit long and needs some edits, but it was different than other tools I use...so I did like that. Also, unsure if I could save more than the 10 on a page at time, and move to csv for data enrichment...but I'll continue to try your product this week.
All the best!
Oh, ChatGPT for finding people... That’s an interesting idea. Where do you get the information about people to provide ?
Thanks @kay_arkain! We pull from 10+ sources, including our proprietary database of over 3 million profiles. With our roots in HR and recruitment, we’ve spent over six years refining and enhancing our global data.
Nice! What's the pricing? Do you have an API?
Thought you'd never ask,@junloayza 😅. We’ll offer a familiar license and credit model. While exact pricing is still being finalized, we are able to undercut all major competitors in our space. As for API access—yes! We can work with you on that and have successfully done so with others.
Mind-blowing! No more dealing with LinkedIn noise when searching for talent, the efficiency of finding suitable candidates has improved by an order of magnitude.
Exactly,@zihui_zhan! 🚀
Thanks, @german_merlo1! I’ll pass the kudos along to the team as well 👏👏
it's really good for me
Thanks,@tutu_y. Love to hear it! 😎
Good question,@phuongle1237353! We don’t do any scraping ourselves—our system operates as an aggregator, pulling from 10+ sources, including our proprietary database of over 3 million profiles. This approach helps ensure long-term stability and compliance with platform policies.

Thanks for checking us out,@jennieweng! We're excited for you to use it too. 📈
This looks like a game-changer for connecting with professionals globally! I love the idea of skipping the noise and directly finding the right people for sales, recruiting, or collaborations.
100% agree! Thanks,@jjzhu!
Woahhhhh !!
I recommend People Search GPT by Redrob to anyone looking for an effective way to find the right people for their business or projects! It's a great tool that works as an alternative to LinkedIn, but without the fuss. We will also launch soon, we hope for your support too!! Good luck to you!
Thanks, @varrr_al! This is spot on—and I really appreciate the endorsement. Can’t wait to see what you’re launching! 🙌
Oh god. How do I make sure I'm not in this? How do I opt out?
Hi @bradyfe, thanks for sharing your concerns. We’re an aggregator that pulls from 10+ data sources. Since we don’t scrape or collect data ourselves, opting out currently means you'll have to reach out to each vendor individually. That said, we share your privacy concerns and are working on a feature that will let you opt out of all vendors in one step. We think it’ll be a really valuable addition, too.
It can support us to connect cooperation.
This AI-driven talent-matching solution is revolutionary! It optimizes the working process, significantly speeding up and enhancing the search for the right candidates. Say goodbye to tedious searches—get precise, data-backed recommendations instantly. A must-have tool for recruiters and companies!
You get it,@zhuheio! Thanks for the feedback and good luck on you upcoming launch!
