Hey everyone! 👋 Today we are thrilled to announce a number of huge updates to Blaze, including AI personalization, DM Sequences across Twitter and LinkedIn, and AI Replies from our unified inbox. The Problem Email is saturated and it’s hard to stand out from the noise: Reaching the right audience through outbound email is becoming increasingly challenging. The proliferation of lead databases and ever changing spam filters has reduced the effectiveness of email campaigns. The Solution Blaze helps you: 1. Generate leads with AI-powered signals: Identify qualified B2B leads on LinkedIn and X with a higher likelihood of conversion. Create lists from unique signals, such as users liking your competitors’ social posts, following relevant interest groups or influencers, or mentioning certain topics or initiative at a company or individual level. 2. Send personalized DM sequences on X or LinkedIn and auto-respond with AI: Target leads with more compelling messages taking into account the lead context on social channels where you are more likely to cut through the noise. Add in optional steps like following someone first to improve your response rate further. 3. Engage with trending topics and buyers posts posts to build trust and awareness: Create feeds that surface relevant posts so you can engage and foster closer relationships with top prospects alongside building your personal brand. With our new suite of AI features, you'll feel like you've hired a new SDR or marketing manager, at a fraction of the cost. To date, we have helped 200+ companies accelerate their revenue through our unique signals and marketing orchestration tools. Try out our 1 week free trial today by signing up at: https://dashboard.withblaze.app/... Please feel free to reach out to our team at team@withblaze.app with any questions, thoughts or feature requests! We’d love your feedback.

@kjosephabraham Thanks Joseph! As a startup ourselves we were always excited about helping revenue teams as we think it's an area that can be hugely streamlined with the help of better data and AI. Would love your feedback if you have any b2b outreach, partnership or social brand building requirements :)

@arjun_rakesh_k_o cheers Arjun - happy we have been able to support you in your growth and marketing 🫡 let us know your feedback on the new features!

Very clever solution. Hopefully people who are currently using the email spamming tools see the value in what you are doing. Which other platforms will you be adding? The discord directory list made me curious, is it for lead gen or road map?
Chirag Mahapatra
Maker
@ty_robb We are currently focusing on X and LinkedIn. We do have some of the features on Discord such as DM automation. We also have lead generation and automation features for XMTP and Telegram. We will use feedback from our customers to decide on what to prioritize next.

This is a super interesting product, and very targetted for the web3 ecosystem. Their team is great, and I’ve seen them develop it over time. I’m finally signing up!

Can Blaze be integrated with other social media platforms like Facebook or Instagram? Also, are there any upcoming features that focus on these platforms?
Chirag Mahapatra
Maker
@memphys_sk We are looking to add more platforms. We will most likely support IG this quarter or the subsequent quarter.
Pavel Bocharov
Wow this product is really interesting. Gaining leads with interest is a huge deal. Maybe it will help reduce irrelevant messages in socials and make outreach more profitable. Upvoted!
Chirag Mahapatra
Maker
@pavel_bocharov That is the objective. Our goal is to enable our customers to do very targeted outreach to the right users at the right time. We do believe that as user attention continues to shift towards social channels, it makes sense for businesses to do outreach on them as well.
Abhra Chakraborty
Hi @laurenrothwell! Blaze sounds like a game-changer for targeting high intent leads with its AI-powered signals and personalized outreach 😍. The ability to engage with trending topics and build trust is especially impressive. How have you seen companies improve their conversion rates using Blaze? 😄
Lauren Rothwell
Maker
@abhra_ch we typically see >8% response rates when the average is closer to 1.5% for email outbound today so significantly higher :)
Chirag Mahapatra
Maker
@abhra_ch Great question! We have seen reply conversion rates of up to 20% for the top campaigns. We believe this is due to a personalized outreach from a founder to a very targeted audience. The product works best for teams and founders who invest in building a social brand as well as being authentic and helpful in outreach.

@vishal_sharma_21 Thanks, yeah definitely
Chirag Kasat
Great product, excited about how far the outreach process can be automated.
Lauren Rothwell
Maker
@chirag_kasat yes I think that's exactly the key insight for us - you really need to create a more well thought out experience where the outreach has a meaningful trigger and you can prioritize leads who have shown signs of engagement (e.g. accepting your LinkedIn request of following you back on X) to get a good result from outbound. ofc, this would take a lot of time to do manually so automating in as natural a way as possible was something we were excited about enabling.

Congratulations on the launch! Does the product have a static database of people that is updated from time to time, or does it perform actual live scanning (checking Twitter or social media) after you fill all the criteria?
Anuj Singhal
Maker
@semanser It's both! There is a static database that is updated frequently, AND there is a live scanning feature that gets real time data.

This looks promising for scaling outreach efforts. How customizable are Blaze 3.0's AI and automation features to fit different business needs and strategies?

Maker
@saksham_kumar_singh We have diversified the uses of Blaze by providing customizable filters and AI to scan social signals. Whether you're targeting businesses or consumers, Blaze can help drive your growth.
JaredL
wow, that's what I need. Does writing a DM only generate content, or does it also automate replies?
Awanish Kumar
Maker
Hey @jaredl, With Blaze, we're offering a fantastic bundle where you can generate content and automate it according to a schedule that suits your client, so you are right!
Lauren Rothwell
Maker
@jaredl yes it does both :)
Zenda
Really Cool! I like automation to execute my SOP. However, I'm worried that the DM content directly generated by AI will be regarded as spam by customers. How do you ensure that the generation of DMs is more like that of human?
Anuj Singhal
Maker
@zenda1122 Thank you for your feedback! Our AI learns from diverse, high-quality data to mimic natural conversation. We feed the positive and negative signals back to it so it can learn. With how advanced AI is now, it is able to sound like your brand's voice without seeming like spam. Plus, you can customize the tone and content to match your brand’s voice, ensuring your messages feel authentic and personalized. We're happy to help fine-tune it to meet your needs.

Congrats on your launch! It's interesting yet thrilling to watch how AI enriches the lead generation process. Do you plan to add other social platforms later?

@kate_ramakaieva Yes we do plan to add other social platforms over time. What social platforms would you want?
