Thrilled to see Socap.ai launch today. As someone who's worn multiple hats - from founder to investor to YC CEO - I deeply understand the challenge of managing an ever-growing network of founders and investors. What excites me about Socap.ai is how it's revolutionizing network building and fundraising with AI-powered matchmaking. In true YC fashion, they're tackling a real problem that every founder and investor faces. The team has strong backing from the YC ecosystem, which speaks volumes about their potential to transform how we build meaningful connections in tech.

Dmitrij Kurilo
Great project, what kind of AI models do you run on the data? Do you run it locally or send to partners?
Alexander Nevedovsky
@kurilo We're using a bunch of smaller open source models under the hood.

Thanks to @garrytan for hunting us and supporting us as part of YC! Product hunters, let's face the harsh truth β€” 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 β€” simply put, our network. Best partnerships, best hires, best investors β€” 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 β€” 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. πŸ™Œ In a nutshell, Socap.ai is an AI networking copilot for entrepreneurs like you β€” 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 β€” starting to open up access last Monday and it already went viral (2000+ comments on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/feed/up...)! πŸ’ Create your own free account today: Socap.ai
