What your lead researcher agent does
An AI agent that fills your pipeline.
Finds accounts, qualifies prospects, and helps book meetings. No spreadsheet busywork, no tab-hopping, no stale lead lists.
A · Research
Hand off the research. Get qualified leads back.
Give your lead researcher agent an ideal customer profile and a target market. It builds lists, checks fit, finds the right contact, and keeps notes on why each company is worth a conversation.
Today's work
B · Chat
Slack, Teams, Discord. No new app.
Your lead researcher agent shows up where the team already works. Ask for new accounts, approve a lead list, or tell it to get qualified prospects scheduled for a meeting.

Dalmatian
Yes. I queued 7 personalized emails and will only book prospects that match the qualification rules.
C · Teamwork
Spin up a whole team. Of agents.
Each agent has its own skills, memory, schedule, and personality. They talk to each other, divide work, and report back. Marketer drafts the campaign, Sales Rep follows up with the leads in your CRM. You're the manager, not the worker.

Frequently asked
Frequently asked questions.
Is Dalmatian really free and open-source?+
Yes. Inspect, modify, run it however you want. You bring your own server and either a ChatGPT subscription or an LLM provider API key; we don't charge for either.
Where does Dalmatian run?+
In your own cloud account, on a server you control. The dashboard and the agent run on the same machine. Nothing hosted by us in between.
Where does my data live?+
Dalmatian is open source and runs on your own server. Your agents' memory, chat history, and files stay on that server, not on Dalmatian's infrastructure. You can back up your data or move it to a new server whenever you want.
How does Dalmatian handle my API keys?+
When you connect a service like Stripe or Shopify, your API key is stored outside the agent's container. To use the service, the agent sends its request to Dalmatian, which attaches the key and forwards the call.
How are agents isolated on my server?+
Each agent runs in its own container on your server. Containers are isolated from each other and from the host system, with separate filesystems, memory, and credentials. You also control whether agents are allowed to reach the public internet.
What can it connect to?+
Chat over Slack, Teams, or Discord. It can work with LinkedIn, Apollo, Clay, HubSpot, Salesforce, Google Sheets, email, Calendar, and thousands more. Any CLI or API can be added as a skill.
Can I switch cloud or AI providers later?+
Yes. That's the point. Your agent's memory and setup live as plain files on your server. Move the server to another cloud, or point it at a different AI provider, and your agent comes with you.
Does my agent remember things between conversations?+
Your agent saves information that may be helpful in the future as memories. The agent automatically retrieves relevant memories whenever it chats or does work, so you don't need to repeat yourself. Memories are stored as files in the agent's container just like all the other files, so they can be backed up and moved.
How do I get started?+
Sign up for a cloud server, paste Dalmatian's one-line startup command, open the auto-generated dashboard URL, and connect your chat app. Full step-by-step walkthroughs for DigitalOcean, Hetzner, and Vultr are in the docs.
