What is Copilot, and when should recruiters use it?

Copilot helps recruiters start a new role with a prioritized shortlist instead of building a search from scratch. It pulls from the channels you already use, then surfaces candidates with the most relevant fit and context so teams can move to outreach sooner.

Where do Copilot recommendations come from?

Copilot can pull from inbound applicants, your ATS, your CRM, referrals and employee connections, alumni, and external sourcing sources. Results are shown in one view so recruiters can compare channels without switching tools.

How does Copilot prioritize candidates?

Copilot considers role match and channel context. That includes factors like prior applications, existing engagement, CRM history, and shared connections. Recruiters can review and adjust search criteria at any time to shift what Copilot looks for.

Can recruiters edit the search criteria or use Boolean?

Yes. Copilot generates initial criteria from the job description, but recruiters can refine titles, skills, keywords, and experience requirements. If your team uses Boolean, you can review or edit strings as needed.

What does “Verified” mean on a candidate profile?

“Verified” indicates the profile has been checked for current, reliable contact information and refreshed data. It is meant to reduce time spent chasing stale details and help recruiters reach candidates with more confidence.

Your network is your competitive edge.

Every relationship across your fund, network, or region is enriched with Success and Relationship Signals. Founder and sales intros, intelligent job matching, and portfolio insights in one searchable place.

Your most valuable relationships are out of reach.

The network lives in silos.

A founder needs a VP of Engineering. Two partners each know a strong candidate, but those contacts sit in personal LinkedIn accounts no one else can search. The portco signs a search firm and pays the fee.

Intros are a heavy lift.

You ask in Slack who knows anyone at Ramp. Three partners reply the next morning, and two of them about the same person. By the time the intro finally goes out, the founder has already cold-emailed a stranger.

Your network doesn't close the deal.

At the quarterly review, you have a count of the intros you made, but no way to show which ones turned into hires, new customers, or closed rounds.

Your network is the key to conversion.

See who you know, and how well.

Relationship strength shows which partner has the real connection and which one traded a conference badge. A name in a database can't tell you that. Every profile carries a 3D career history and the Success Signals that show whether this person is worth the intro — before you make it.

Make the intro, then prove it worked.

Share a filtered list with a founder or a partner and the intro moves forward without a follow-up chase. Every result — new signups, closed deals, hired talent — rolls up into a report you can put in front of the GPs at the next review.

Frequently asked questions.

Network intelligence maps every relationship across a fund — partners, founders, advisors, alumni, LPs — and scores how strong each connection is, so an introduction routes through the person most likely to get a reply. It turns a contact list into something the fund can act on.

LinkedIn shows one person their own first-degree connections and never says how well they actually know someone. With Findem, every team member's contacts combine into one searchable map, enriched with work history and email, with relationship strength attached to each connection.

A spreadsheet is accurate the day it is built and stale by the next quarter, and only the person who built it can really use it. These profiles refresh when someone changes roles, flag the move, and stay searchable by every partner at the fund.

Founders get a filtered list of people worth talking to and an intro from whoever at the fund knows them best. They don't run a search or learn a tool. The platform team sends the list, and the founder answers a warm reply instead of starting cold outreach.

Lists are shared with access controls and password protection, and email data can stay private when a list moves to a founder or a co-investor. Sharing a list does not expose the underlying contact details unless you choose to include them.

Every intro is tracked from send to result, and results roll up as hires at portfolio companies, closed deals, and new signups. That gives the platform team a number for the quarterly GP review and a line for the LP update, not a count of introductions made.
