Know Who Can Introduce You

Map your real network and draft warm intros without digging through old threads

01

The Problem

You need to talk to someone at a company you have no connection to, or you want to introduce two people in your network who should meet. The information about who could make that introduction exists -- somewhere in your head, or buried in a group chat, or in the memory of who you met at a dinner eight months ago. There is no interface for "who in my network knows this person," so most useful introductions never happen. You default to a cold email instead of the warm path that was sitting right there.

02

Your Network as a Graph, Not a List

Evergreen's Network view renders your contacts as a relationship graph instead of a flat table. Connections between people become visible edges, and clusters emerge on their own -- your former colleagues, your investor contacts, the community you organize around. Instead of scrolling a list trying to remember who knows who, you look at a picture of your own network and see it.

03

Track Who Introduced Whom

When someone enters your network through an introduction, record it: who made the intro, and who it was to. Evergreen keeps that provenance attached to the contact permanently. From there, two things become possible that a flat contact list can never give you. First, Evergreen can surface your top introducers -- the people in your network who have personally connected you to the most others -- so you know who your real connectors are, not just who has the most tags. Second, for any contact, you can pull their full introduction chain: who introduced them, who introduced that person, back through the lineage that got them into your orbit in the first place.

04

Drafting the Ask

Once you know who your best introducer is for a given connection, the actual message still has to get written -- the double opt-in note that checks whether your contact is open to being connected before you loop the other person in. Evergreen's on-device chat panel already has the context: your notes on both people, the interaction history, and the introduction record itself. Ask it to draft the note and you are editing something informed by what you already know, not starting from a blank compose window.

05

Tracking the Follow-Through

An introduction is not done when the email sends. Log it as an interaction on both contacts' timelines, attach a follow-up action to check whether the connection actually happened, and search tag:introduced has:action to see which intros are still pending a nudge. The introductions you made stop disappearing into your sent folder.

06

A Private Map

Your network graph is a map of who you actually know and how -- exactly the kind of data you do not want sitting in a cloud database that could be scraped, leaked, or sold. Evergreen keeps the whole graph in a local SQLite file on your Mac. No account, no sync, no telemetry. Nobody sees your network but you.
