# Outreach

> Run listicle outreach from visibility experiment citations — sync prospects, discover contacts, draft emails, and track replies.

Outreach helps you turn visibility experiment citations into listicle outreach campaigns. You sync prospect articles from experiment results, discover contacts, draft emails with AI, send through connected Gmail, and track follow-ups and replies.

Navigate to **Execution → Outreach** in the sidebar.

<Note>
  Outreach is available for **visibility experiments** only.
</Note>

## Connect Gmail first

Before you can send email, connect a sender account:

1. Go to **Settings → Integrations → Outreach Email**
2. Click **Connect Gmail**
3. Optionally set a **Default** connected account

## Hub tabs

On the Outreach hub you can switch between:

* **Experiments** — pick a visibility experiment to manage its outreach
* **Outbox** — sent outreach emails across experiments
* **Inbox** — replies across experiments
