**Auth:** `Authorization: Token <GENERECT_API_KEY>`
**Docs:** https://liveapi.generect.com

Requires `GENERECT_API_KEY` environment variable. Get a key at https://beta.generect.com

## Endpoints

### Search Leads by ICP
`POST /api/linkedin/leads/by_icp/`

}
```

Key filters: `job_title`, `location`, `industry`, `company_headcount_range`, `seniority_level`, `job_function` (arrays). `company_name` is a **string** (not array). At least one of `company_name`, `company_link`, or `company_id` is required.

> **Note:** This endpoint queries LinkedIn in real-time and can take 15-60+ seconds to respond.

Response: `{ "amount": N, "leads": [...] }` — each lead has `full_name`, `headline`, `job_title`, `company_name`, `company_website`, `linkedin_url`, `jobs[]`, `educations[]`, `skills[]`.

Estimate the number of leads matching ICP filters (same body as search, no results returned).

  }
]
```

## Usage via curl

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.generect.com/api/linkedin/leads/by_icp/ \

  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"job_title":["VP Sales"],"location":["United States"],"per_page":5}'
```

## MCP Server (Alternative)

Generect also provides an MCP server for AI tool integrations:
- Remote: `mcp-remote https://mcp.generect.com/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer Token API_KEY"`
- Local: `npx -y generect-ultimate-mcp@latest` with env `GENERECT_API_KEY`

Tools: `search_leads`, `search_companies`, `generate_email`, `get_lead_by_url`, `health`

## Tips

- `amount: -1` in response means exact count unavailable; iterate pages until empty
- Leads endpoint is live — each request queries LinkedIn in real-time (may take 5-15s)
- Email finder uses AI permutations + validation; `valid` results are safe to send
- Combine lead search → email generation for full prospecting pipeline
- Rate limits apply per API key tier
