Finding Founders' Emails and Names Using APIs: A Guide

Hassan M. · 2025-11-24 14:51:53.874343+00

I have a table with the company details and most of them are not even available on LinkedIn.. Now I simply want to find the emails of the founder/CEOs... but I don't have their name either. Is there a way to find out the founder's email and name? I have the API key for the following: Hunter, Snov, and Prospeo

Yes! You can find founder/CEO names and emails using two approaches:
Option 1: Find People Search
Use our Find People feature to search for founders/CEOs at your companies. Filter by job title using terms like "CEO", "Founder", or "C-suite" level. You'll need company domains or identifiers from your existing table.
Option 2: Openmart Integration
Use the Openmart action which specifically finds decision makers and owners for companies. Just input the company domain and it returns names, job titles, and can include emails.
Once you have names, use your Hunter API to find their work emails with the "Find Work Email" action.
Try Sculptor (top-right corner) first - it can help you set up these workflows quickly and it's free to use!

Perfect! Here's the quickest approach:
Use Openmart - Input your company domain and it finds decision makers/owners with names, titles, and emails automatically. [1]
Alternative: Find People - Search for "CEO" or "Founder" job titles using your company data, then use Hunter's "Find Work Email" with the names you find. [2] [3]
With Snov - Use "Find Emails from Domain and Job Title" and specify job titles like "CEO, Founder, President". [4]
Try Sculptor (top-right corner) first - it can set up these workflows quickly and it's free!
