A name comes up that you don't know.
Ask, and YouSpot finds the warmest real route in: who you both know, how well, and how you know them. Or an honest no route from here.
Who do I know at a company?
A client mentions a company on a call. Someone forwards a job posting. A name is on tomorrow's invite. You type the company and get back the people you already know there, ranked by how well you actually know them, with the reason you know them attached.
When there is no route, it says so. A fabricated path is worse than none.
It reads what already happened.
Your sent mail says who you have actually worked with and when. Your LinkedIn export says who is connected to whom and where they work now. YouSpot joins the two, so a route counts only when there is a real relationship behind it, not just a mutual connection.

Questions
- What counts as knowing someone?
- Mail you have exchanged, meetings you have both been in, and connections in your LinkedIn export. A name in your address book that you have never written to does not count as a warm route.
- Does it use LinkedIn's mutual connections?
- Only from the export you upload. YouSpot never logs into LinkedIn for you and never messages anyone.
- Can I ask this from Claude or ChatGPT?
- Yes. Connect YouSpot as a tool and ask the same question there. The answer comes from your own graph.
Also
Fifteen minutes before the call.
Every morning with an outside meeting, a brief arrives: who they are, what was last said, what you promised, and what changed at their company since.
Runs as Meeting prep
Six months of silence.
Three clients fit in your head. The ninety people who could refer you don't. Every week YouSpot names the one worth a note, says why now, and drafts it in your voice.
