From Pain to Product: How We Built "The Hunter Protocol" in 24 Hours
On Friday, we had a problem: our outreach efficiency was hitting a wall. On Monday, we had a solution: a fully autonomous AI agent that generates a unique video demo for every qualified lead.
Many companies spend months procuring, integrating, and testing new sales software. At WRIO, we use our own platform as a factory. When we identify a business pain, we build a solution in hours, test it on ourselves (Dogfooding), and package it into a product.
This is the story of The Hunter Protocol.
TL;DR
- Problem: Generic cold outreach is dying; manual personalization doesn't scale.
- Solution: An AI agent that detects "precision signals" and generates synthetic video demos.
- Result: High-relevance outreach that proves value before the first reply.
- Platform Power: Built from scratch in 24 hours using the WRIO engine.
Why We Didn't Buy a Tool
Most outreach platforms (like Apollo or Lemlist) are built to be "machine guns." They are designed to spray thousands of messages. We needed a "precision rifle."
We didn't want to send more emails; we wanted to send better ones. We wanted to respect the recipient's time by only reaching out when we had a 100% verified match for their current operational struggle.
The Architecture of "The Hunter Protocol"
Instead of blind scraping, we implemented a Signal Detection algorithm:
1. Precision Queries
The agent doesn't just look for "CEOs." It scans for specific markers of operational friction—such as hiring for roles that signify manual bottlenecks (e.g., "Operations Manager for manual data entry"). If there is no signal, the agent remains silent. This ensures we never spam anyone who doesn't actually need our help.
2. Synthetic Message Generation
This is where the magic happens. Once a lead is identified, our system uses the WRIO core engine (integrated with Qwen3-TTS and FFmpeg) to generate a 30-second personalized video demo.
The agent:
- Fetches the lead's professional photo.
- Drafts a script addressing their specific hiring pain.
- Generates a voice message using a synthetic twin of our CEO.
- Composes a professional video with a pulsing waveform.
Showcase: The Acme Logistics Case
Watch what a Head of Operations at a growing logistics firm receives when they post a job for a manual coordinator:

The Power of the WRIO Factory
The real USP of this project isn't just the video—it’s the Speed of Adaptation.
Because WRIO is built as a flexible workflow engine, we didn't have to set up new servers or write thousands of lines of boilerplate code. We assembled the "Hunter Protocol" like a Lego set:
- Search Module (Puppeteer/Search API)
- Voice Module (WRIO AI Nodes)
- Render Module (FFmpeg/Remotion)
- Logic Module (Workflow API)
We solve our own pains first. Then, we give that power to you.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a Deepfake?
No. Unlike deepfakes that try to trick you into thinking a person is live on camera, this is a Personalized Demo. We are transparent that it is a synthetic message generated by our automation engine to prove its capabilities.
How do you find the leads?
We use "Signal Detection"—searching for public job postings, funding news, and technology shifts that indicate a company is outgrowing its manual processes.
Isn't this just more spam?
Quite the opposite. "The Hunter Protocol" is programmed to be silent unless it finds a perfect match. By automating the research, we ensure that every message we send is highly relevant and valuable to the recipient.
Can I use this for my business?
Yes. The Hunter Protocol is now being rolled out as an optional module for WRIO Enterprise clients.
How long does it take to deploy a custom agent?
With the WRIO platform, we can typically spin up a specialized agent for your specific industry in less than 48 hours.
