Hunter's prospecting stack now runs inside ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, not only its own app.

outbounddeliverabilitymcpai-assistantschatgptsequences
◆Current state
Hunter spent the first half of 2026 owning the send: domains, inboxes, warm-up, sequences and recipient-based reporting. The latest batch puts that stack where the user already works. A ChatGPT app with 30+ tools is included on every plan, including Free; Claude, Gemini and Perplexity get native setups; and other clients connect through a hosted MCP server. Discover also flags new matches on saved searches and pre-selects them.
◆Where it's heading
The loop of find, send, protect and measure is still the product, but the front door is moving. A user can go from a plain-language request to a prepared sequence without opening Hunter, which leaves data and deliverability as the parts Hunter owns while the interface passes to the assistant. Saved-search alerts fit that shift, since Discover now brings work to the user instead of waiting for a query.
◆Prediction
Expect the Prompts library and the MCP tool set to grow, along with more Discover signals delivered as ready-to-work lists. The entries do not show whether assistant usage will change credit pricing; existing limits and credits apply for now.

    Saved searches tell you what's new

    Saved searches on Discover now report new matches and open with them selected. A small change that makes the finder proactive, in the same batch that moves the workflow into assistants.

    Hunter is now available in ChatGPT

    The most complete of the integrations: 30+ tools covering the Hunter API, with sequences launched from a conversation and access on every plan. It is the path where a request in plain language ends in a sequence.

    Hunter works in the main AI tools

    The umbrella announcement for Hunter's assistant strategy: native setups for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity, plus a hosted MCP server for everything else. The interface stops being the only way into the find-and-send loop.

    Engagement rates are now recipient-based

    Hunter recalibrates its core engagement metrics from per-email to per-recipient, raising reported rates on multi-step sequences and aligning the numbers with how teams actually judge a campaign. It's a measurement-credibility move that strengthens the analytics end of the find-send-measure loop.

    Buy domains, create email accounts, and protect your sender reputation

    ⚡ SPARK

    This is the clearest step in Hunter's shift from finder to full sender: it now sells domains and provisions pre-authenticated inboxes, with warm-up handled in-house. Combined with the earlier Accounts Center and Progressive Sending, Hunter now owns infrastructure it used to assume users brought themselves.

    The same domain-buying and Inbox Protection announcement as the adjacent entry, captured a second time. It marks the start of Hunter's move from finder to sender.
