What Is the Cold DM Outreach Intelligence API?

A lightweight, embeddable REST API that turns campaign assumptions into actionable forecasts, campaign scores, risk assessments, and optimization recommendations — before any DMs are sent.

Planning-first intelligence layer. ColdDMCalculator does not send messages, automate DMs, scrape platforms, or bypass platform rules. The API is designed for campaign planning, forecasting, reporting, and decision support. Users are responsible for following each platform's terms, privacy rules, and outreach best practices.

Planning & Forecasting, Not Automation

ColdDMCalculator is a forecasting and planning API, not a DM automation tool.

Does not send cold DMs or automate social platform messaging

Does not scrape private data or bypass platform rules

Does not guarantee replies, meetings, clients, or revenue

Does not violate Instagram, LinkedIn, X, or TikTok terms of service

The API is designed to help teams plan outreach, compare campaign assumptions, and estimate outcomes before sending. Use the free Cold DM calculator to test the forecasting logic directly.
