Warm Introduction Network Mapper

Sales and recruiting teams pay $5k-20k/year to platforms that find warm intros. This open-source alternative lets users import LinkedIn contacts, identify shared connections to prospects, and engineer warm introductions locally. Target users are founders, recruiters, and salespeople wanting cheaper alternatives.

The explosion of AI-powered outbound tools has paradoxically made cold email cheaper and therefore more ignored, which is pushing teams back toward relationship-based selling and making warm intro infrastructure more valuable. Clay is the closest incumbent here, with its enrichment and network-mapping workflows sitting in a similar price tier, though it's broad enough that a focused tool could carve out space. The $1k-5k/mo revenue band is plausible but tight — this is a workflow tool that saves money rather than makes money, which caps willingness to pay and makes the $5k-20k/year incumbent pricing feel aspirational as a benchmark rather than realistic for a leaner alternative. The biggest risk is that LinkedIn's API restrictions and terms of service make any contact-import flow legally and technically fragile, and a single enforcement action or scraping block kills the product's core mechanic entirely.
