Thanks to @garrytan for hunting us and supporting us as part of YC!
Product hunters, let's face the harsh truth — cold outreach isn't cutting it anymore for a lot of use cases, such as fundraising or bizdev. Every day, the cost of highly personalized mass spam messages decreases, and our inboxes/DMs are overcrowded with them. Ironically, AI is making AI SDRs obsolete (first slowly, then so rapidly that we won't even see it coming).
But what's the alternative?
As repeat YC alums who raised over $180M (one of us is also an ex-VC with 2 unicorns from a seed portfolio), we've accumulated tens of thousands of connections across email/LinkedIn/messengers over the last 15 years.
We've long realized that our most valuable capital is our SOCIAL capital — simply put, our network.
Best partnerships, best hires, best investors — we found them all either directly in our network or via intros from people we know.
It used to take us months and a bunch of human helping hands to manage it as a system — and now we've built an app that can handle all of the dirty work (enrichment, research, and automation) plus, it is a delight to collaborate in.
🙌 In a nutshell, Socap.ai is an AI networking copilot for entrepreneurs like you — and all you need to do to start getting value is connect your email account.
We've been testing it in closed beta with hundreds of founders/investors during the last 5 months — starting to open up access last Monday and it already went viral (2000+ comments on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/feed/up...)!

@garrytan@ednevsky Super useful tool folks. More so in terms of cleaning and aggregating such data is a nightmare. Glad you took time and effort to put this together. Great launch!
Congrats on the launch, looks pretty cool.
As a founder myself, cold outreach is far from enough. Leveraging on your social capital is key, and more tools to automate and improve these flows are always welcome.
Good luck!
Love the focus on genuine connections! Curious how Socap.ai helps maintain authentic relationships while scaling network management. Looks promising! 🤝
AI-powered matchmaking for founders and investors is such a game-changer. Tackling real challenges in networking and fundraising is no small feat. Congrats on the launch
Oh man, been manually digging through LinkedIn trying to reach design leaders at fintech companies... brutal. Quick q - how smart is it at finding actual decision makers? Tired of getting intros to 'head of design' who turn out to be junior designers with fancy titles 😅
I recommend Socap.ai to all entrepreneurs who strive to use their connections as efficiently as possible! It's an incredible AI assistant that turns your social network into a powerful tool for business development.
