How Flowfiy and Apollo work together
Flowfiy integrates directly with Apollo's API. You connect your Apollo key, and Flowfiy's Lead Discovery Agent queries Apollo's database using filters constructed from your ICP. The leads come back with Apollo's full data (contact info, job titles, company data), and then Flowfiy's remaining 4 agents take over — company research, qualification scoring, and personalized copy generation.
