"Goodword is leveraging AI to build tools that encourage closer connections, including a search function, reminders for follow-up conversations, and a method of making introductions. The startup describes its product as a "networking copilot" and has an AI assistant that users can chat with to keep track of meetings and people they meet. The platform is built using large language models from OpenAI, chief product and technology officer Chris Fischer said."
"Goodword isn't necessarily looking to take on LinkedIn head-on as the next giant professional network. LinkedIn, in Fischer's words, is the "world's most important professional stage" and a "content machine," but Goodword aims to solve a different problem. "We're not trying to build a networking app, per se, that's helping you network more and more," he said. "We're building something that allows you to spend time with the right people and build deeper relationships.""
Goodword uses AI to help professionals maintain and deepen relationships through search, follow-up reminders, introductions, and an AI networking copilot. The platform offers a chat-based assistant to track meetings and people, built on OpenAI large language models. Goodword positions itself as a tool for deeper engagement rather than a mass professional stage like LinkedIn. Founders include CEO Caroline Dell and chief product and technology officer Chris Fischer. The beta product launched in October 2024. The startup raised $4 million in seed funding in a round led by Hum.
