Step 2: Sign In or Create a Swarm Account

  • New users → Sign up to create a free team account (you can use Google SSO or email with a one-time password).


Step 3: For New Users — Onboarding Setup

If you’re new to The Swarm, you’ll go through a short onboarding flow to set up your team and start mapping your network:

  1. Enter your name (first and last).

  2. Confirm your LinkedIn URL and approve mapping overlaps – You’ll be asked to provide you LinkedIn URL and approve our Work and Education Overlaps search. This expands your network beyond direct LinkedIn connections.

    👉 Learn more about overlaps here.

  3. Confirm your current company – We’ll use this to map your team network. You can change it using a LinkedIn company URL or skip if needed.

  4. Enable AI Network Mapping – Automatically find colleagues and map their professional networks. 👉 Learn more here.
