Warm introductions - from someone who knows both parties and can vouch for each - are the foundation of sales going forward. In an age of fake content, they're infinitely more valuable.

You have 1,000× more relationships than you realize.

Your network isn't just your 3,000 connections - it's those 3,000 plus each of their 3,000 connections. Your true network numbers in the millions.

3,000your connections
×3,000their connections
9,000,000your true network

The odds you're directly connected to your prospects? Small. The odds someone in your network actually knows them? Much higher.

Go from cold outreach to warm intros in minutes

No need to ask anyone to export their network to you. No more manual trolling through hundreds of profiles. No more sprawling spreadsheets that are impossible to manage.

STEP 01

Add your targets

Add a list of people you're looking to reach - your lead list, prospect list, target list, etc. Or we can help you build one with company names + titles.

STEP 02

We map every path automatically

We ingest your first-degree network and then look for paths to your targets through them - no need to ask any of your connections to upload, download, or export anything to you. Add your team to unlock 3rd-degree paths through everyone's combined networks.

STEP 03

See why each path is strong

Every path gets a score with a clear rationale: 'Worked together at Google for 2 years' or 'Went to Stanford together.' No more guessing if someone actually knows your target.

For founders

Stop annoying your investors with spreadsheets

You know the drill: you send your investors a list of 500 target companies asking "who do you know?" They hate it. Now they have to manually search for each one.

Flip the script. Upload your targets to Draftboard and we'll do the work for you. Then go to them with: "Here are 10 people you know well at companies I'm trying to reach."

Served on a silver platter. They just say yes or no.

❌ What you used to do

"Hey [investor], here's my target list of 500 companies. Can you let me know who you know at any of them?"

😤 They never respond

✓ With Draftboard

"Hey [investor], here are a few of my top prospects you're connected to. Any chance you could make the intros?"

Why sales teams switch from manual searching

We built Draftboard because existing solutions don't actually work.

Manual searching is painfully slow

Click on prospect → Mutual connections → Open each profile → Scan their history → Repeat 50x. Hours wasted.

Other tools require CSV exports

"Hey, can you export your connections and send them to me?" Nobody does this. Your network stays unmapped.

Scores without context are useless

"Connection strength: 65%" means nothing if you don't know why. Did they work together or just connect randomly?

"What about Clay, Apollo, or other outbound tools?"

Those tools make cold email cheaper and easier to send. Which means everyone sends more. Email volume goes up, response rates go down. They're architects of their own demise.

Draftboard is different: we help you skip cold outreach entirely.
