What is a fresh wound draft in my Outreach Queue?

The Outreach Queue · Updated September 22, 2026

A fresh wound draft is an opening email Legiit Leads wrote for you after a Monitored Markets scan caught something new on a lead, such as an SSL certificate that just broke. It carries a red 🩹 Fresh wound (auto-drafted by your market monitor) banner followed by what the scan found, and it sits near the top of your Outreach Queue. It is still only a draft, so nothing goes out until you approve it.

When one is drafted

Each territory you claim on Monitored Markets is re-scanned every 7 days, or straight away when you click Re-Scan Now. The first scan sets the baseline, so alerts start from the second scan. When a scan raises buying-window alerts, for example a new business in the market, a broken SSL certificate, a business that just started running ads or a Google rating that fell below 4.0, Legiit Leads drafts an opener for up to 3 of them. It only does this when the lead has an email address and no emails drafted yet.

What the draft contains

  • One email only, shown as a single tab, Day 0: Opener. There are no day 3 or day 7 follow-ups.
  • The AI writes it from the lead's audit, in your Writing Style and with your services, and is told the event is time-sensitive and was verified this week by the scan, so the email leads with it.
  • A P.S. linking to the lead's live proof page.

Where it sits in the Queue

Leads whose proof page was opened in the last 48 hours come first. Fresh wound drafts come straight after them, ahead of every other lead whatever its score. See Why is the Outreach Queue in this order?

What to do with it

  1. Open the Outreach Queue. The banner tells you what changed.
  2. Read the draft, edit it if you need to, and click Save Edits.
  3. Approve it like any other draft with Approve + Copy, Approve + Gmail, Approve + Outlook or Approve + Mail App, or click Skip Touch if you do not want to send it.

Approving does not send the email by itself unless Outreach Autopilot is on. See Does approving a draft send the email?

Good to know

  • Regenerate This Touch keeps the banner, but the new text is written from the audit like a normal opener and is not told about the alert. Check that it still mentions what changed.
  • If the AI could not write the opener, no draft appears, but the alert still shows on the Monitored Markets page.
  • Each scan saves the businesses it finds as new leads. If you already emailed this business from an earlier search, check before you approve so you do not pitch them twice.
