GitHub is a public record of what developers and companies are building and evaluating. DataForGTM turns that record into leads — intent signals, person-level identity, and ICP scoring — as tools your AI agent can call. Pay only for what you use; no dashboard, no seats.
Most "GitHub lead gen" stops at a star count or a company logo. To actually act on a developer, you need to go the whole way: signal → company → person → fit. DataForGTM exposes each step as a separate callable tool.
| Step | What it answers | Tool |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Monitor intent | Which developers and companies are active on the repos, orgs, or tech you sell? | developer-intent / company-intent |
| 2. Resolve identity | Who is this GitHub user, really? What's their LinkedIn? | deanon (GitHub → LinkedIn) |
| 3. Enrich the company | Company, role, and firmographics behind the developer. | enrichment |
| 4. Score fit | Does this lead match my ICP, and how strongly? | /api/v1/icp/score |
There are several ways to "get leads from GitHub." They are honestly not the same job, and some are better than DataForGTM at theirs.
| Approach | Starts from | Person-level GitHub → LinkedIn | Where it's stronger |
|---|---|---|---|
| DataForGTM | GitHub identity / repo signal | Yes | Agent-callable, pay-per-hit, no platform to adopt |
| reo.dev | Developer activity | In-platform only | Full dashboard, attribution, web + GitHub blend |
| Scarf | Package/registry pulls | No (company-only, no PII) | Privacy-safe download & usage analytics |
| Apollo / ZoomInfo | Domain or LinkedIn URL | No | Huge contact DB, email/phone, sequencing |
| PhantomBuster | LinkedIn scraping | No | Broad automation recipes (LinkedIn ban risk) |
The one capability no other API sells: hand it a GitHub username, get the real person's LinkedIn. A miss is free; you pay 2 credits (~$0.30) only on a confirmed hit.
