Tired of sending cold emails that get ghosted? WarmIntro just launched on Product Hunt, promising to turn cold outreach into warm intros using pure data.
Sending out cold emails or LinkedIn messages in 2024 feels like shouting into the void. The response rate is basically a rounding error. But what if you could magically find the one person at a target company who actually gives a damn about your existence?
A new tool called WarmIntro just dropped on Product Hunt (scoring a solid 113 points) and it’s attacking the "cold outreach is dead" problem head-on.
The mechanics are dead simple: drop your LinkedIn URL and a target company's name. The tool instantly scours the data and ranks the company’s employees based on how much you have in common. We're talking shared universities, past employers (overlapping tenure is the holy grail here), same departments, or just breathing the same polluted air in the same city.
Basically, it turns you from a "random spammer" into "oh hey, we suffered under the same management in 2019."
WarmIntro is a clever wrapper around data enrichment APIs, solving a very human problem. The execution is smart, and the pitch is perfect.
But for my fellow devs, here’s the real takeaway: update your damn LinkedIn profiles! If you’re a senior dev hiding behind an anime avatar and zero work history because you think you're too cool for corporate social media, no matching algorithm on earth can save you when you need a referral after a layoff. Start leaving digital breadcrumbs, folks.
