For ecommerce tools
GTM infrastructure for ecommerce tool startups
Everything you need to qualify an ecommerce brand is on their storefront. The build is a scraping problem, and that is the part most stacks outsource badly.
The quickest way to waste a month in this market is to buy a list of online stores. Most of them sell nothing. The signal that a brand is worth contacting is operational: how deep the catalog runs, which apps are installed, whether reviews still arrive.
All of that is public and all of it can be read. A table with one row per store, a crawl column for the site, an extraction column for the numbers you care about, then contact lookup on the rows that survived. Each step keeps the page it read.
- Who this is for
- Seed to Series A companies selling software to ecommerce brands: retention, logistics, merchandising, reviews, subscriptions, or analytics. Four to fifty people.
- What it looks like today
- Brand lists are sold by the million and are mostly dead stores, dropshippers, and hobby shops. What separates a real brand from noise, catalog depth, installed apps, review volume, is on the storefront and in nobody's database.
- What changes
- The storefront becomes the qualifier. A crawl reads the platform, the app stack, and the catalog, those numbers become columns, and enrichment runs only after a store proved it is a working business.
Example searches
Ask for it the way you'd say it
Each example is a request in plain words, with what it returns underneath.
Real brands, not dead stores
find stores on this cart platform with more than 500 products and recent reviews
Catalog depth and review recency land as columns, so an abandoned store is filtered out before you spend on contacts.
App stack on the storefront
which of these brands already run a subscription app and a loyalty app
A yes or no column per app reads the crawled storefront, so a stack combination is a filter rather than a per store investigation.
The person who runs ecommerce
find the founder or head of ecommerce at each of these brands with a work email
Small brands answer from the founder's own address, so one accurate contact per store beats 3 generic ones. A managed finder bills on a hit. Email checks bill even on a miss, including guessed addresses on rows without a LinkedIn URL.
Plays
Three motions you can run this week
Each one is a chain of OXYGEN primitives: the same hosted objects your workspace already has, composed.
Storefront qualification
A list where every store proved it is an operating business first.
- 1Crawl each storefront and extract catalog size, installed apps, and review activity.
- 2Filter down to the operating brands, then promote them into accounts.
oxygen tools runCatch an app install early
Brands whose storefront started carrying an app you compete with, caught on the next crawl.
- 1Put the crawl column on a weekly full refresh so every target store is read again on the same cadence.
- 2Read each store's crawl cell history and work only the brands whose app stack moved.
oxygen tables schedule setOne brand, one thread
Founder, ecommerce lead, and agency replies all on one account.
- 1Enroll the named contacts and let a reply from any of them stop the rest.
- 2Label the answers in the shared inbox, then log the outcome on the brand.

Capabilities
What you get
The storefront as your database
Crawling and extraction are first class columns, so the facts that qualify a brand come from the store itself rather than from a resold list.
Detection plus crawl
Platform and app detection narrows the market, and a crawl of the store fills in the operating numbers detection cannot see from outside.
Spend only on survivors
Contact lookups run after the filter, so the expensive step only touches brands that already proved they are worth an email.
Free tables, metered crawling
Tables, workflows, and sequence drafts cost nothing to set up. Crawling runs and contact lookups draw credits, and each run you start carries a credit ceiling.
Data sources
Data sources and CRM connections
- LeadMagic
Scans a store's website for its cart platform, such as Shopify or WooCommerce, and the marketing and chat tools it loads.
FirecrawlSite crawling and page extraction for catalog depth, policies, app widgets, and the numbers a store publishes itself.
Blitz APIFinds the founder or ecommerce lead behind a brand rather than a support address.
Use managed credits where available, or connect a supported provider key on an eligible paid plan. Your provider bills its calls; OXYGEN adds a per-call platform fee. Signed-in CRM connections such as HubSpot have no per-call fee. Connected sending accounts reserve monthly credits. See pricing and supported integrations.
Limits
Where this stops
- Detection and crawling see the public storefront only. A headless build or a custom stack can hide what a store runs, so an empty app column means unknown rather than absent.
