Warm intros beat cold emails, every time

Investors admit it openly: a forwarded intro from someone they trust gets read, replied to, and taken more seriously than the best cold email. The problem is finding the right connector. Most founders have hundreds of potential paths hidden across LinkedIn, Gmail, and Slack, and no time to hunt for them.

Astel maps your network to every target investor

Astel maps the people you know against every fund and partner on your list. For each target, you instantly see:

  • Who in your network knows the partner directly
  • How strong that relationship is (frequency, recency, mutual endorsements)
  • Who is most likely to actually make the intro, not just accept the ask
  • Alternative paths if your first choice doesn't reply

The intro request, drafted and ready to forward

Once you pick a connector, Astel writes a crisp, two-part intro request in your voice: a short forwardable pitch your connector can send with one click, plus a personal note to the connector explaining the ask. You review, approve, and it's out the door.
