The leads list

Tabs, filters, statuses, follow-ups, notes, lists, bulk actions, and the keyboard shortcuts that move you through the leads screen without a mouse.

Updated 4 min read

The leads screen (/leads) is the people who engaged with any profile or keyword the workspace watches. Lists, statuses, and notes are shared across the whole workspace, so marking someone contacted stays contacted for every member. The Priority Queue tells you who to deal with today; this list is where you go looking.

Tabs

TabWhat it holds
LeadsEverything scored for the account, ordered by score
Hot LeadsICP matches with a score of 60 or more
Going ColdLeads whose trend turned to cooling
ICP WatchingRight-fit people who have not warmed up yet
ContactedLeads you have already reached out to

ICP Watching is a derived view, not a saved list. It holds leads with an ICP match at 0.7 confidence or better, a score below 40, at least two engagements, and either two distinct posts engaged or one comment. When you have just saved a new ICP, the tab reports its own state: rescoring, scanning, or ready.

Filtering by an agent other than post engagement leaves only the Leads and Contacted tabs, because the other three depend on post data.

Filters and sorting

On Growth and above the table includes an Owner column. Filter by me, unassigned, others, or any. See Lead owners.

Search matches a name, company, or title. Alongside it sit filters for score, engagements, last activity, company, position, and source, plus a list filter. Sources are Posts, Comments, Watchlist, and Keyword, and you can pick more than one. Every applied filter appears as a chip you can remove.

Sorting is Highest or Lowest score and Most or Least active on the score-ranked tabs, and Most or Least recent on Contacted. Not every filter applies to every tab: switching tabs drops the filters the new tab does not support and keeps the ones it does.

Statuses

StatusLabel in the appWhat it means

call_bookedCall BookedA meeting exists
not_interestedNot InterestedThey said no

Each transition stores its own timestamp, so reports can measure how long each stage takes.

Follow-ups, notes, and lists

Open a lead to get the detail panel. Set a follow-up date there and the lead returns to the Priority Queue on that day, flagged as overdue if you miss it. Notes are free text, listed newest first, editable and deletable by their author or an account administrator, and are a Solo feature. Lists are your own named segments, for example “To contact this week”. A lead can sit in several lists, “All Leads” is a built-in view rather than a stored list, and list names are unique per workspace.

Bulk actions

Select rows with the checkboxes. When you have a full page selected, Embers offers to select every lead matching the current tab and filters, capped at 5000. With a selection active you can:

  • Add to list, either an existing list or one you create in the dialog.
  • Block company, which names every company in the selection in the confirm dialog before anything happens.
  • Export CSV, which is Solo and above.

Keyboard shortcuts

KeysAction
/Focus the search box
j and kMove to the next or previous lead and open it
EnterOpen the first lead
cMark the open lead contacted
dDismiss the open lead
rReactivate the open lead
Cmd or Ctrl with EExport
Cmd or Ctrl with KOpen the command palette
g then lGo to Leads

The single-letter actions only fire while a lead panel is open, and none of them fire while your cursor is in a text field, so typing a note never dismisses anybody.

Frequently asked questions

Why does the Pending status say active in exports?
Pending is the display label for the default status. The API and the CSV call the same state active.
Can I select more leads than one page?
Yes. Select the page, then choose select all matching. The selection follows the current tab and filters and is capped at 5000 leads.
