🔗 What Are Connectors?
Connectors are people you add using just their LinkedIn URL. No sign-up. No email. No notification. And yet—plenty of signal:
Work overlaps: We detect shared employers and timelines with people at your target accounts.
Education overlaps: Same school, same class year = instant alumni connection.
Shared investors: If your company and a target share an investor, we surface that too.
All of this happens automatically, right out of the box. No action required from the connector.
Example:
Add Sarah and Leila as connectors:
Sarah worked at Meta the same time as Simon—CEO at your target.
Leila graduated MIT same year as Sam—also at your target.
Your company and the target? Both backed by Sequoia.
That’s three warm paths from just two URLs.
👥 Admins, Contributors & Guests
