**Find Prospects Now** is a Chrome extension and web dashboard that monitors the Facebook groups you already belong to and finds posts where someone is asking for a product or service you offer — "Can anyone recommend a plumber?", "Looking for a web developer", "Need a realtor in Austin".

Instead of scrolling dozens of groups every day, you choose your groups, add keywords (and, on Pro, plain-language AI criteria), and Find Prospects Now collects every matching post in one dashboard. You decide which conversations deserve a reply and open the original post on Facebook in one click.

## How it works

**Install the Chrome extension and connect Facebook.** The extension uses the Facebook session already open in your Chrome profile. You never share your Facebook password. → [Install the extension](https://findprospectsnow.com/docs/getting-started/install-chrome-extension)

**Choose your groups and keywords.** Pick the groups to monitor, add the words buyers use (and words to exclude), and optionally describe your ideal lead for AI matching. → [Set up monitoring](https://findprospectsnow.com/docs/getting-started/onboarding)

**Scan automatically, review in one place.** Scans run on your schedule (every 1 to 6 hours) or on demand. Matches land in the dashboard, and you can be alerted by email, Chrome notification, Slack, Discord or webhook. → [Review your leads](https://findprospectsnow.com/docs/dashboard/reviewing-leads)
