LinkEdge
Find who in your network can actually refer you
Upload the data export LinkedIn already gives you. LinkEdge sorts every connection by sector, role and seniority, so you can find the alumni and contacts who can actually refer you - then track every conversation. No LinkedIn login. Nothing sent on your behalf.
Hi Product Hunt
I spent years in India's civil services process after a stint as a software
engineer at Zomato and Snapdeal. Both times I changed direction, I hit the same
wall: I had 1,200+ LinkedIn connections and no way to ask a useful question of
them. "Who do I know who could get me an AI role?" is unanswerable on LinkedIn
today.
So I built LinkEdge. You upload the data export LinkedIn already gives you, and
it classifies every employer and job title - roughly 900 distinct companies and
800 distinct titles in a typical export - down to about 20 sectors, 18 role
families and 9 seniority levels. Then you stack filters until you have a real
shortlist: alumni, in AI roles, senior. Draft a message, send it yourself, and
track who replied.
Two decisions I want to be upfront about, because they cost me features:
1. It never asks for your LinkedIn password and never scrapes. LinkedIn's API
doesn't expose your connections, and automating a logged-in session breaches
their terms - the usual outcome is a restricted account. That's a terrible
trade when your job search runs through it. Your export has the same data and
is yours by right.
2. It never sends messages for you. You get a draft; you send it. Automated
outreach is the fastest way to get flagged, and it reads like spam anyway.
Your export also describes other people - their names and employers. So nothing
is sold, nothing is pooled across accounts, and you can delete everything in one
click.
There's a "Try with sample data" button on the homepage - a synthetic network of
420 invented people, no signup, so you can see whether it's useful before going
to fetch your export.
Genuinely want the criticism: is the classification accurate enough to trust?
What would you filter by that I haven't thought of? I'll be here all day.
