💡 Inspiration
Traditional B2B lead-gen agents are everywhere — but 2C (consumer-facing) lead-gen remains reactive and manual. We wanted to build an autonomous outreach agent that monitors real-time platforms (like Reddit), understands when people need help, and proactively connects them with professionals — starting with legal services.
⚙️ What it does
LawLink Agent is a full-stack AI agent that:
Scrapes social platforms for posts asking legal help (e.g., “I’m getting evicted — help!”)
Uses an LLM to extract location and legal issue
Matches the user with a lawyer from a mock database
Generates and posts a helpful, personalized comment
Logs responses, tracks engagement, and learns over time which message styles work best
It’s a self-improving 2C outreach system that acts autonomously and adapts in real-time.
🛠️ How we built it
Apify to scrape Reddit posts mentioning legal problems
Stack AI / Airia to run the agent logic:
LLM extraction of location + issue
Matching to lawyer from mock DB
Message generation using template scoring
Zapier + Google Sheets to automate input/output flow
Manual/console feedback simulation to represent reactions
Designed for future plug-in with Reddit API, Discord, or email for outbound
🧱 Challenges we ran into
Reddit API limits prevented full automation of posting (we simulated the outreach step)
Matching fuzzy legal issues to specialties proved trickier than expected
Looping back success metrics (user reaction) into message optimization in real-time was tough in 3 hours
🏆 Accomplishments that we're proud of
Built a fully autonomous MVP pipeline: scrape → analyze → match → outreach
Created a clean self-improving message generation system (template ranking)
Demonstrated 2C lead-gen automation using current tools — without custom backend
📚 What we learned
2C lead-gen requires empathy in tone and relevance — message quality matters as much as timing
LLMs can accurately extract structured intent data from noisy user-generated text
Agent-based systems need real-world constraints (platform limits, cold outreach rules) baked in early
🔮 What's next for LawLink Agent
Add full posting and DM automation using Reddit/Discord/Twitter APIs
Plug into real legal networks via email or SMS for handoff
Implement active learning — letting the agent test different tones, calls-to-action, and match criteria
Extend beyond legal: healthcare, immigration, education — anywhere people ask for help online
