I run a digital marketing consultancy and often meet prospective clients for consultations. I’m looking for a solution that can help me better understand these individuals before our meetings—something that can quickly gather publicly available information about them from their digital and social media footprint.

Ideally, the tool should give me insights into their business interests, likes, dislikes, and even personal interests (as available on public platforms). This would help me steer the conversation more strategically and build rapport whether in a professional context or for personal networking.

is there an APP that offer such a feature? Or is there a tool that can generate a concise, AI-powered summary of a person based on their public digital presence?

Would appreciate any leads or suggestions!?

Sounds like you are interested in a service which performs social media background checks and screenings. Privacy and ethical issues aside, I'm sure you can find a fee-based service easily with a Google search.

I am looking out for info which the user has already put in the public domain. So that much info he or she has already shared willingly, keeping privacy and ethical issues aside.

Not checks and screenings you are using explicit words to make it sound dark and shady, let's call it summarize the info which is already available in the public domain.

You’re missing my point. The service you are asking for is marketed as social media specific background checks and screenings. Search for these terms and you will find a plethora of fee-based services.

I am not getting proper results when I input the above keyboard in Google search, can you put a sample link of the result that you find and maybe I will take it forward from there?

You can save as pdf his/her profiles and interactions on social media, remove his identities in the pdf and upload to ChatGPT to ask its advice. ChatGPT can do profiling your own based on your chats (it keeps all the history now), so it can make relevant suggestion if you asked it.

I did this once to my line manager when considering to join his team.

when you say ChatGPT can do profiling based on your chats what do yo mean exactly ?

ChatGPT will “understand” your preference, hence it can make relevant perspective when you asked about particular person, I.e. how he/she fits with your style, your skills, your expectations etc.
 
You are running a digital service, meaning online, yet, you cannot refine your search to point you to the right direction?

Also, it's weird that you are asking for an AI tool in a forum where most of the users are actual human beings.

EDIT: re-worded

You’re asking for a tool to do most of what your job actually is. Are you sure you want that?

So running an online Business does not make me Super Human if you think they are ?
 
What's wrong with reviewing their social media pages and seeing what they post and follow? If you want information about their followers and trends, I think Social Blade can provide that.

When meeting with said prospective clients, do you plan to disclose to prospective clients you performed such a review of their public digital and social media footprint in order to get insights into their business interests, likes, dislikes, and personal interests in order for you to strategically build a rapport with them?

What the OP wants to do is highly unethical, regardless if an AI bot does it or a human does it.

The OP is never going to admit using such a tool would be used to screen out potential clients based on the personal information it returns back on it's searches.

Why am I very skeptical about the OP's intentions of using AI for the purpose they want? because I have seen first hand how senior managers operate when wanting to take on new clients or new employees. They look at the potential clients/potential employee's paperwork and then make a decision on working with them based on things such as their age, their education, their likes/dislikes, their employment history (if to be an employee), who they have done work for (if to be a client) and I kid you not people have been declined because the person making the decision did not like the music they liked, the sport they liked, a company they did work for.

An AI bot would find all that information out and then the OP will look at that info and go 'I do not want to have this person as a client because of x,y,z'.

Some of us have been in the game long enough to know why a person would want an AI bot to work in the manner the OP wants it to.

I bet you could teach Manus to do it. For instance, I showed Manus a couple of how-to videos from YouTube, and now it knows how to scrape the web, collect my competitors' new ads, and put them on a custom web page for me to look at.
