Collect LinkedIn Profiles with AI via SerpAPI, OpenAI & NocoDB

This workflow automates the collection of LinkedIn profiles by performing targeted Google searches via SerpAPI to avoid blocks and ensure reliable results. It processes search outputs to extract relevant profile data, discarding unnecessary metadata. OpenAI is leveraged twice: once to infer and add company names from profiles, and again to convert approximate follower counts (e.g., '300+') into precise numbers.

The cleaned and enriched data is then formatted into a downloadable Excel file and inserted into a NocoDB database table for persistent storage and further analysis. This beginner-friendly setup minimizes costs by relying on efficient APIs and provides high-quality leads without manual scraping.

Ideal for marketing teams, recruiters, and sales pros needing quick lead generation. Use cases include prospecting by industry/location, competitive analysis, or building outreach lists. Benefits: Saves hours of manual research, ensures data accuracy via AI, and integrates seamlessly with spreadsheets/databases for CRM import.
