In the fast-paced world of entrepreneurship, chance encounters, timely connections, and relevant insights can be the difference between a good idea and a game-changing business. But what if these moments of “happenstance” could be engineered—intelligently, and at scale?
I recently sat down with Doug Stevenson, SBN Ambassador in San Francisco to look at some of the great new tech that has come across his desk. We started by looking at Happinstance, an AI agent designed to act as a co-pilot for entrepreneurs. it’s an intelligent ecosystem that helps entrepreneurs make the right connections, at the right time, for the right opportunities.
With the standard AI agent available for free this is a tool of entrepreneur should be using for:
1. AI-Powered Network Search
Happenstance enables entrepreneurs to search their entire network using natural language queries. By connecting platforms like Gmail, LinkedIn, and Twitter, users can find specific individuals based on criteria such as location, industry, or role. For example, searching for "a fintech PM in NYC" will yield relevant contacts from your network.
2, Enhanced Collaboration Through Shared Networks
The platform allows users to grant access to each other's networks. This feature expands the reach of entrepreneurs, facilitating introductions and collaborations that might not have been possible otherwise.
3. Optimized Sales and Fundraising Efforts
For sales and fundraising, Happenstance helps identify leads and potential investors within one's network. By highlighting mutual connections, it facilitates warm introductions, increasing the likelihood of successful engagements.
