Deploy AI Agents for Marketing + GTM
Intro
Most of the marketing data you want is public. It's just not exposed. Ad platforms show you what makes you spend more with them, and hide the rest.
Adrian runs Scrape Creators, an API for public social data. He spent this episode listing almost 20 tools that get at the stuff platforms don't hand over — creator emails, Instagram stories, full tweet history, every nutritionist in the United States.
The real takeaway isn't any one API. It's that chaining them together takes an afternoon now. Google Maps → email finder → Instantly → booked meeting. No engineer.
