Connect a Claude account (AI)
Some outsend features run on Claude, Anthropic's AI assistant. Activation requires a personal API key. That way usage-based billing, only for what runs, directly with Anthropic, no middleman, no markup.
Available today with a key:
- Smart summary of a listing's Google reviews ("Summarize reviews" button on a completed reviews job page)
Coming soon in outsend:
- Generation of personalized outreach messages from a prospect's data
- Automatic detection of business type, decision-maker persona, buying signals
- Natural-language filter rules ("keep only restaurants with > 100 reviews and a broken website")
Until a key is added, these features stay disabled — the rest of outsend works normally.
How to get an Anthropic key (5 min)
- Go to console.anthropic.com and create an account (free)
- Section Settings → Billing: add credit (the minimum is $5, which lasts a very long time during alpha)
- Section Settings → API Keys: click "Create Key", copy the key that starts with
sk-ant-api... - Come back here, paste it into the field below, click "Save & test"
API key
Claude model
All outsend AI features use this model. Without an explicit pick, the default model is (). List auto-detected from the Anthropic key.
Security — where the key lives
- On "Save", the key is sent only once to our servers over HTTPS, encrypted immediately with a server secret, then sent back to the browser as an unreadable blob
- The browser stores only the encrypted blob in
localStorage— the plaintext key exists nowhere on disk - On every AI call, the blob is sent back to the server, which decrypts it in RAM just long enough to relay the request to Anthropic, then forgets it
- No key logging, no DB write, no cache
- No other outsend user can see the key, not even admins (no access to the blob)
- End-to-end HTTPS (TLS) transit
Technical note: Fernet encryption (AES-128-CBC + HMAC-SHA256) with a key derived from outsend's SECRET_KEY .
If the server is compromised AND the blob is exfiltrated, the key can be decrypted — hence the need to keep the server healthy.
Password

My data
The account owns own the data collected with outsend (scrapes, enrichments, monitoring). Full export is available at any time, or permanent account deletion (along with all related data).
The ZIP contains: account.json (account metadata), jobs.json + all CSV/JSON files of completed scrapes, pipelines.json, veille.json (monitoring + run history), and a manifest.txt.
Danger zone
Account deletion is permanent. All data will be deleted: scrapes, enrichments, pipelines, monitoring, history. No going back.
To keep a copy beforehand, export the data first.
