What happens after you sign up
A walkthrough for a new customer, from the trial form to the first booked meeting. Most teams are working leads within an hour.
Pick a plan and a workspace address
Choose Starter or Team and name your workspace, for example acme.northlead.app. It takes two minutes.
Your workspace is ready
Within one working day you get a welcome email and sign in as the admin. Your data lives in its own workspace, walled off from every other customer.
Tell it who you sell to
Fill in the Ideal customer tab: industries, countries, company size, technologies, your offer. Northlead uses this to score every lead.
Connect an AI key
Paste a key from Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Mistral, Perplexity or Copilot. The "i" button next to each one shows where to get it in three steps.
Run your first research
Northlead finds matching companies, checks contacts, detects website tech and looks for why-now signals. You see scored leads appear in the list.
Invite your team
Colleagues register with your workspace address. You approve each one and choose a role: admin, coworker (notes and stages) or read-only.
Open Today and work the list
Each lead shows one next step with a ready message. Call, send, mark done. Stale leads are flagged so nobody is forgotten.
Keep going or cancel
If you do nothing, your plan starts and you are billed. Cancel before then in Billing and you pay nothing. Your data stays for 30 days after cancelling.
What your team needs
A browser on a laptop or phone. Northlead installs as an app from the browser, with no download from a store.
What you pay for separately
Your AI provider bills you for the research you run, at its own prices, with no markup from us. Data tools such as Hunter or Apollo are optional and have free plans.
What stays yours
Your leads, notes and messages. Export them at any time. We never sell or share your data and never use it to train AI.
