What This Integration Does

AI Ark is a data provider. Connecting it lets a workflow’s Find data step look a person up with AI Ark and add the email, mobile phone or LinkedIn URL it finds to that person in RevyOps. Choose AI Ark as the step’s Data provider. AI Ark is connected per workspace. Each workspace pastes its own AI Ark API key, and Find data steps for that workspace that use AI Ark spend credits from that AI Ark account.
AI Ark only appears on the Integrations page when Workflows access is switched on for your agency, because it is used by workflow steps only. A super admin can switch AI Ark off for an agency. Its tile then shows “Upgrade to Enterprise to Access” and Find data steps on AI Ark stop with “AI Ark is not available on your plan. Ask your agency admin.”

Setup

1

Get an API key

Sign in at app.ai-ark.com, open Settings, then API Management, and create a key.
2

Open the integration

Go to Settings → Integrations, find the Data Providers section and open AI Ark.
3

Save the key

Paste the key and click Save key. RevyOps saves it, then checks it against your AI Ark credit balance, which costs nothing, and shows Key saved and checked. If AI Ark refuses the key or can’t be reached, the key is still saved and the panel says what went wrong.
The panel shows API key connected once a key is saved. Click Remove, then Remove key to confirm, to delete the key; Find data steps on AI Ark for that workspace then stop with “No AI Ark API key connected” until a key is saved again. The Connect AI Ark link on a Find data step opens this panel directly.

How A Person Is Looked Up

AI Ark finds an email from a LinkedIn URL, so RevyOps starts from the person’s LinkedIn URL. A person with none gets one found first from their email. A person with neither, but with a last name and a company domain, can still get a mobile phone, and that lookup returns their LinkedIn URL too, which then finds the email. AI Ark can’t find an email from a name and company alone. When a person has a name and company domain but no LinkedIn URL can be found for them, the email is skipped with the reason “AI Ark cannot look up an email by name and company”. Use MoltSets on that step instead if your people often have no LinkedIn URL and no email. A LinkedIn URL found on the way to what the step looks for is added to the person too, even if the step wasn’t asked for it: it is already paid for, and it is only looked for when the person has none.

Email Status

AI Ark checks every email it returns with BounceBan at the moment it finds it. The result becomes the new email’s status from AI Ark: a confirmed mailbox is Valid, and a domain that accepts all mail is Catchall. An email AI Ark marks invalid is not added; the step’s result lists it as skipped. An email at a free-mail domain, such as Gmail, is marked personal in the run log and the test results.

When AI Ark Says No

AI Ark allows 5 calls a minute per key, and one lookup can take up to three. RevyOps runs one AI Ark lookup every 45 seconds for each workspace, so 100 people take about 75 minutes. Values found before a failure are still added, so a retry with Only if missing on doesn’t pay for the same lookups twice. Run History keeps every attempt’s lookups, so you can see what the first attempt bought.
