Bottom line

Boardy is an AI networking agent that learns what you need through a conversation, then introduces you to someone from its network once both sides opt in and books the meeting. Founders use it for investors and customers, and recruiters and hiring managers can use it to meet candidates and referrals. It is free to use today, per its terms.

Stands out for: Matches come from what people have told Boardy in conversation rather than from a scraped profile database, and every intro is double opt-in. It reports 253,000+ introductions made and a 17 hour average time to match.

Watch out for: You do not control who is in the network or search it directly, so results depend on who Boardy has spoken with, and its network skews to startups and investors. It is not a sourcing database or outreach tool, and there are no outside reviews to check.

Overview

Boardy is an AI agent that acts as a connector between people. It says it has spoken with 246,000+ people and made 253,000+ introductions to investors, customers, talent, founders and creators.

You start by messaging Boardy or talking to it, and say who you need to meet, why now and what would make the conversation useful. You can also have ChatGPT, Claude or Muse write Boardy one email from what they know about you, which you approve before it sends.

Boardy matches the request against what people have told it, checks the intro is relevant to both people, and only then makes the introduction. Once both opt in, it coordinates calendars and puts the call on both schedules.

Connecting Google Calendar unlocks Boardy Pro, with priority intros and deeper context. After that you can CC Boardy on any email thread to have it find a time and book, or invite it into Google Meet, Zoom or Microsoft Teams calls.

Boardy is free to use under its current terms, which say users will be told in advance if fees are introduced.
