The stack

Before. After.

Same verification engines under the hood — Usebouncer, DropContact and Zeliq are part of Pronto's own waterfall — minus the contracts, the connectors, and the daily glue work.

The problem

Where Recom got stuck.

  • One of Europe's largest cold-calling agencies — a dedicated team per client, daily reporting, strict promise of 1 to 2 qualified meetings per BDR per day.
  • Five tools to hit that bar: Compass (sourcing), PhantomBuster (extraction), DropContact, Usebouncer, Zeliq (enrichment).
  • PhantomBuster triggered LinkedIn alerts; list validation was manual every day.
  • Monthly tooling bill creeping past €2,600 — and rising with every new client.
We were spending more time cleaning data and arguing with tool quotas than actually prospecting for our clients.
— Juliette Binetruy, Head of Operations
The solution

How Pronto unlocked it.

  • Whole data stack replaced with Pronto: sourcing, AI cleaning, enrichment and per-client workspaces — all in one platform.
  • No more hand-cleaning after PhantomBuster extracts. Pronto AI Cleaning runs automatically — dedupes, drops dead emails and junk profiles before the SDR ever sees the list. ≈ 14 hours saved per BDR per week.
  • Same data quality on the back-end — Usebouncer, DropContact and Datagma run inside Pronto's waterfall under the hood.
  • A dedicated, branded Pronto workspace per Recom client — clean reporting, clean data ownership.
  • Tooling cost: €2,600 → €1,200 / month — ≈ €16,800 / year reinvested into BDR capacity.
How the team operates

90% planned, 10% on-demand — zero bottleneck.

Juliette builds ~90% of the day's contacts upstream — bulk, ICP-aligned lists ready in every SDR's queue every morning. For the remaining 10% — ad-hoc requests, missed champions, mid-call needs — every one of the 30 SDRs can drop a LinkedIn URL in Slack #pronto. Pronto's API enriches it in seconds and replies with a verified contact card. No need to ping Juliette, no queue to wait on.
