Show HN: McClane – Done-for-you lead drops from Facebook group conversations

Hi HN,

I'm testing a new approach to growth for solo founders and lean marketers.

*McClane* is a done-for-you lead research service that finds real buyer intent inside Facebook groups. I go through group conversations, extract patterns, predict realistic emails (without scraping), and deliver leads + messaging suggestions manually.

No dashboards. No learning curves. No scraping.

One early test gave me a 51% open rate from a group-based cold campaign and saved around $25K fot LAL optimizing. That gave me the push to offer this to others.

Would love your thoughts: – Would this be useful in your work? – Where would this break ethically or technically?

I'm currently validating interest and running early tests.

Backstory: I tried to grow a product with a $500 Meta ads budget. No CRM, no tools, just me and group threads. I started manually collecting names, guessing emails, writing copy based on their words — and it worked.
