Core offering

Boardy operates an AI-powered networking platform that uses voice and messaging to facilitate introductions between founders and investors. Users onboard by messaging Boardy on LinkedIn or WhatsApp, complete an AI phone call that builds their profile, and are then matched with relevant professionals based on goals and backgrounds. The company is extending the platform with a premium "Boardy Pro" tier.

Product overview

Boardy is a single unified product—an AI-powered networking platform positioned as "the world's first social AI." The core offering is the Boardy AI agent, which operates autonomously through WhatsApp messaging, LinkedIn messaging, and AI-powered phone calls. Users sign up by messaging the Boardy WhatsApp business account or LinkedIn company page, provide contact information, complete an AI phone call where Boardy learns about them, and are then added to Boardy's matching pool. The platform analyzes public LinkedIn profile information to facilitate introductions between matched professionals. No separate modules, tiers, or add-on products are identified in the source material, though a 'Boardy Pro' version is mentioned as being available.
