From Filters to Conversations: XingZap's AI evolution
Finding the right professional contacts in Germany used to mean wrestling with filters, guessing job titles, and clicking through endless dropdowns. For sales teams and recruiters targeting the DACH market, this was just part of the job.
Not anymore. We’ve rebuilt XingZap from the ground up with an AI agent that understands what you’re looking for—no filters required.
The Old Way: Filters and Forms
The original XingZap worked like most lead generation tools. You’d select a job title from a dropdown, pick a location, choose an industry, and hope the combination matched what you actually needed.
This approach had real limitations:
- Rigid categories: If your target role wasn’t in the dropdown, you were stuck
- Multiple clicks: Narrowing results meant toggling filters back and forth
- Exact matches only: “CTOs at startups” wasn’t an option—you had to know the exact job title
- Separate export step: Getting your data into a CSV was yet another process
It worked, but it wasn’t built for how sales and HR teams actually think about their targets.
The New Way: Just Ask
The new XingZap AI agent lets you search the way you naturally describe your ideal prospect or candidate. Type a question like you’d ask a colleague:
- “Find software engineers in Hamburg”
- “Show me HR managers at startups in Berlin”
- “List marketing directors with 10+ years experience in DACH”
The AI understands your intent and translates it into a precise database query. No dropdowns. No guessing which filter combination might work.
