The Hunter team stroke again! Great product to find companies using specific technologies and their employees' email addresses. Good job ;)

@nico_lrx Thanks for hunting us Nicolas 😊 With Hunter, we get to crawl millions of pages per day. We thought it would be great to share for free some of the data we come across. With TechLookup you can generate lists based on technologies and download for free thousands of results. Over the next few weeks, we'll add new filters and other features. Any feedback is highly welcomed 👍

@nico_lrx @antoinefink Wish I don't have to deal with captcha after signing in.

@nico_lrx @mrahmadawais I agree, and it's definitely on the short term roadmap.

How are you collecting the website technology data? Is the Hunter chrome plugin sending the data back to you anonymously?

@jittarao Hi! The crawl is made by our own crawlers, the same crawlers we use for Hunter.

Nice work Hunter team! Engineering marketing at it's finest 👌 How is the marketing automation tech identified? Guessing form action attributes (Mailchimp) then scripts for the rest?

@josh_reyes Thanks Josh! And you're right, it's a perfect case of Engineering marketing 😇 Regarding the detection, we use both regular expressions on the HTML and look for initialized variables once the page has loaded. We packaged the detection into a container that is 100% open source. Check it out here: https://github.com/hunter-io/doc...

Great UX. I'm sure you know this Albert Einstein quote at Hunter : "Make things as simple as possible, but not simpler."

What's this like in terms of accuracy? I've just ran a test for Demandware that sprung up Wordpress sites.

@martinmeany Hey Martin! We're using regular expressions to find the technologies used. The results should be pretty reliable but if you find some errors, I would love to hear about them: antoine@hunter.io

@martinmeany @hunter @antoinefink Are you using wapalyzers regular expression or your own?

@evivz The data is exclusively ours! We do all the crawling ourselves.

Good stuff @antoinefink & team, thank you for another fantastic tool! However, I wonder what happened in the past couple of months, that made you change your mind and release it free instead of premium (from blog.hunter.io: "The generation of lists will be one of our rare premium features"). Would you be able to shed some light on that? I'm curious what's the story behind.

@blukasz Hey Lukasz! That's a great question, and we'll most likely add a post on our blog to explain exactly why we did the change. The short version is that users of Hunter didn't often need this data. At the same time, it would have been handy for lots of people that didn't need Hunter. So we decided to split the two and provide TechLookup as a free service 😊
