Hookgap
Hookgap is a security software tool designed for MSP prospecting. It automates security audits of target companies and packages the findings into branded reports. The tool checks a prospect's email, website, and SSL security in under a minute, and turns the gaps into a branded report with the MSP's name on it. Hookgap reads public DNS and the homepage, the same way a mail server or browser would, and does not scan ports, try logins, or test for vulnerabilities. The tool provides a plain-English report that a business owner can understand, and includes features such as bulk checking of domains, weekly rescans of watched domains, and alerts when something changes. Hookgap is built and priced for MSPs with one to ten people, with change alerts included from $39 a month. The tool also includes free guides and tools, such as an SPF lookup counter, DMARC explainer, and MTA-STS checker. Hookgap is a passive tool that only reads public data, making it safe to run before anyone signs anything. The tool is designed to help MSPs generate leads and start conversations with potential clients, and includes features such as branded reports, outreach email and Loom scripts, and integration with Slack, Teams, or Discord. Overall, Hookgap is a powerful tool for MSPs looking to automate their security audits and generate leads. It provides a comprehensive and easy-to-understand report that can be used to start conversations with potential clients, and includes a range of features that make it easy to use and integrate with existing workflows. Hookgap is a SaaS tool that is accessible via a web interface, and includes a range of pricing plans to suit different needs and budgets. The tool is designed to be easy to use, with a simple and intuitive interface that makes it easy to get started and start generating leads.

Problem solved
MSPs often struggle to start conversations with potential clients, and may not have a clear reason to call or follow up. Hookgap solves this problem by providing a concrete reason to call, in the form of a branded report that highlights security gaps and provides a clear call to action. This allows MSPs to start conversations with potential clients and generate leads, rather than relying on cold outreach or advertising. By automating the security audit process and providing a plain-English report, Hookgap makes it easy for MSPs to identify potential clients and start conversations that can lead to new business.
