ContactGraph combines your phone contacts and LinkedIn connections into a single searchable network and enriches each profile with current employer, role, and industry data from public sources. It then surfaces open positions at companies where you already know someone, allowing you to reach out directly via phone or text rather than through a platform. The service shows all matching roles across job boards, not just those listed on LinkedIn.

Problem
Job seekers often rely on cold outreach when applying for positions, leading to low response rates and prolonged hiring cycles. Additionally, existing job platforms do not leverage personal phone contacts or LinkedIn connections to identify opportunities where a direct introduction is possible.
Solution
ContactGraph aggregates a user's phone contacts and LinkedIn connections into a unified, searchable network and enriches each entry with publicly available employer, role, and industry data. The platform then matches open positions at companies where the user already has a personal connection, presenting a list of “warm-path” jobs. Users can reach out directly via text or call to the identified contacts, turning each application into a personalized introduction rather than a generic submission. By focusing on real, reachable contacts and pulling job listings from all sources, ContactGraph increases the likelihood of a response and accelerates the job search process.
Target Audience
Primary users are active job seekers and career professionals who maintain a network of phone contacts and LinkedIn connections and want to leverage those relationships for job referrals.
