You buy the click. They bounce. Most stacks stop there.

**Paid Ads Deanon Instantly for Hermes** is the loop that keeps going: identify who showed up, keep only ICP, find and verify work email, stage Instantly sequences, then run the inbox until a demo is booked.

It is a public jurniti template (`/templates/paid-ads-deanon-instantly-for-hermes`). You fork it into a paid **Hermes** microVM — not a Notion SOP and not a Zap that pretends to be an operator.

If you searched for **paid ads de-anonymization cold email**, this is that job as a forkable agent seat.

## The loop (what actually runs)

1. **Landing + search/display** — briefs and structure; **Higgsfield** for creatives when you bring a key.  
2. **De-anonymize** — **Warmly** (or equivalent) by default. **RB2B is optional** — never a hard dependency.  
3. **ICP filter** — score fit before you burn enrichment.  
4. **Waterfall enrich** — work email; stop on first hit.  
5. **MillionVerifier** — invalid / disposable stay out of Instantly.  
6. **Instantly DRAFT** — sequences + leads; **you** click Start.  
7. **Inbox demo ops** — classify replies, draft answers, propose calendar slots.

Human gates are non-negotiable on ad spend and Instantly launch. That is the difference between a demand operator and a liability.

## Undeniable demo (offline)

Fork, set `OPENROUTER_API_KEY`, paste:

> Run the offline fixture cycle. Skip RB2B. Write under `~/cheatcode/vault/runs/<today>/`. No live ads. No Instantly launch.

You should see ICP-tagged visitors, verified-fixture emails, an Instantly draft package, and three inbox triage drafts. RB2B never blocks the demo.

## BYOK checklist

| Env name | Role |
| --- | --- |
| `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` | Hermes model (required) |
| `HIGGSFIELD_API_KEY` | Ad creatives |
| `WARMLY_API_KEY` | Default de-anon |
| `RB2B_API_KEY` | Optional dual de-anon |
| `MILLIONVERIFIER_API_KEY` | Validate before live Instantly |
| `INSTANTLY_API_KEY` | Draft campaigns |
| Enrichment keys | Apollo / Hunter / … as you prefer |

Keys stay inside your microVM. jurniti does not proxy or mark up model tokens in v1.

## Who this is for (and not)

**For:** founders and GTM ops already buying search/display who want pipeline from bounces; teams on Instantly who need the de-anon → verify spine; people who refuse auto-spend agents.

**Not for:** unattended Instantly launch; pure creative angle research (see Paid Acquisition Jockey); list-build without the paid de-anon spine (see Clay Outbound).

## Pricing

jurniti microVMs start at $25/mo. Bring your own model and vendor keys. First purchase has a 30-day money-back guarantee — no free trial.

## Frequently asked questions

### What is Paid Ads Deanon Instantly for Hermes?

A public jurniti template on Hermes that runs paid landing traffic through de-anonymization, ICP filter, waterfall enrich, MillionVerifier, Instantly draft campaigns, and inbox demo booking — with human gates on ad spend and Instantly launch.

### Is RB2B required?

No. Warmly (or offline fixtures) is the default de-anon path. RB2B is optional dual-provider coverage only when you set RB2B_API_KEY and ask for it.

### Does the agent start Instantly campaigns or ads by itself?

No. Instantly packages stay DRAFT / awaiting approval. Ad creatives and campaign structures also wait for you to enable spend in the ad platforms.

### Is there a free trial?

No free trial and no free tier. First purchase includes a 30-day money-back guarantee. Model and third-party fees are yours (BYOK).

### Whose API keys?

Yours. OpenRouter, Higgsfield, Warmly, optional RB2B, MillionVerifier, Instantly, and enrichment providers — all env-only inside your microVM.

### How is this different from Clay Outbound or Smartlead templates?

Clay Outbound builds lists. Smartlead is send-side. This template owns the paid → de-anon → verify → Instantly → inbox demo spine for non-converting website visitors.
