Skip to main contentOptaReach helps you spot developers who match your ICP and reach them inside the GitHub ecosystem before moving to DM or email.
What you can do
- Discover leads from repositories, issues, pull requests, and discussions that match your keywords or tech stack.
- Save Tracked searches for repos or topics and get new matches automatically.
- Monitor multiple GitHub accounts and respect rate limits.
- Use GPT for GitHub to summarize a thread and draft replies that add value.
- Manage all replies and follow-ups from Unibox.
Accounts
- Connect one or more GitHub accounts; set conservative caps for comments and DMs.
- Watch rate limits/API quotas and spread activity across accounts if needed.
- Add an account:
- Go to Settings > Accounts.
- Choose GitHub and authenticate.
- Name it, set daily caps, save.
Leads
- Import contributor lists via CSV (usernames + repo/issue URLs).
- Discover targets from repos, issues, PRs, and discussions that match your keywords or tech stack.
Tracked searches
- Save searches for repos, orgs, languages, or issue keywords to auto-surface new activity.
- Attach tracked searches to campaigns so fresh threads flow in without manual pulls.
Campaigns & sequences
- Create a GitHub campaign and choose sending account(s).
- Pick a lead source (tracked search, live search, or CSV).
- Suggested flow:
- Comment on the issue/PR/discussion with a helpful, technical reply.
- Wait ~1 day.
- If appropriate, DM the contributor or move them to email.
- Branch: Replied → human follow-up in Unibox; No response → optional single bump.
GPT for GitHub
- Feed issue/PR/discussion text into GPT; ask for concise, code-aware responses.
- Include guardrails (no hallucinated APIs, cite code snippet/line) in prompts.
- Keep tone technical and specific; avoid boilerplate praise.
Monitor and respond
- Track which repos/topics convert in Campaign Analytics.
- Keep GitHub threads and DMs organized in Unibox.
- If limits trigger, lower caps, extend waits, or rotate accounts.
