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.
