Skip to main contentTools are specialized capabilities that Kafka uses to perform actions across systems.
Kafka has access to a comprehensive set of tools that enable it to complete real-world tasks:
Research & Data
- People Search — Find and research individuals based on criteria
- Company Search — Look up company information and data
- Web Crawl / Web Scrape — Extract data from websites
Communication
- Phone Call — Initiate and handle phone conversations
- Email — Send, read, and manage email communications
Automation
- Browser — Navigate and interact with web applications
- Playwright Script — Run automated browser workflows
- Code — Write and execute code for custom tasks
Advanced Capabilities
- Sub Agent — Deploy specialized helper agents for complex tasks
- API — Make calls to external APIs and services
When you give Kafka an instruction, it automatically selects and uses the appropriate tools to complete the task end-to-end.
Examples:
- “Find 10 software engineers in San Francisco” → Uses People Search
- “Message this candidate on LinkedIn” → Uses Browser automation
- “Call the nearest pizza shop and order a large pepperoni” → Uses Phone Call
- “Scrape all pricing from competitor websites” → Uses Web Scrape
Tools can be explicitly referenced in Workflows and Playbooks using their names.
