I love a good marketecture diagram. It explains the whole product and how it works with the broader ecosystem. At Connect The Dots, we set out to help turn relationships into revenue. Our AI analyzes granular metadata from LinkedIn and email to create a supergraph showing everyone your organization can reach. From there, you turn on your warm introduction engine. It's a purpose-built machine that lets you define your targets and connectors, make smart asks, and track them through to attribution. It is easy for anyone to ghostwrite well-crafted emails that connectors can approve and send on. It's the opposite of spray-and-pray. That's the story you get when you walk the wheel!

I wrote a post about my network reaching the 1,000,000 potential contact milestone in May last year. Eight months later, that number had doubled. What does that mean? Through a friend, I can get introduced to +2M people! One of the significant catalysts for the growth of my network came from a feature called external connectors. That's when a company invites you to join their network. It works the other way too. When an advisor joins your company, you can see the 5k places they can be most helpful.? ? The reason that growing your network in this way works is that you do so with aligned incentives. The advisor has equity and wants to help facilitate high-level introductions. The company can make a lot of money by leveraging a network of advisors. Plus, the advisor can double the size of their network by hitting accept, all with security and privacy controls.? The technology of connecting networks is coming together. Warm is getting hot!??
