Backchannel

Backchannel helps professionals turn an underused LinkedIn network into a focused job search. Upload your LinkedIn connections CSV and define your target role, industry and location. Rules and AI analysis of relevant contacts produce a Network Readiness Score, five coverage lanes and ranked people with reasons to reach out. Coverage includes peers, hiring influencers, company contacts, recruiters and industry connectors. Inferred introduction paths carry confidence labels and need checking before use. Editable openers, follow-ups and referral blurbs help you prepare personal outreach, while a daily plan keeps the search moving. Job discovery shows open roles and contacts at target companies. Backchannel does not scrape LinkedIn or send messages for you. The raw CSV is read in your browser; imported contact rows are saved in your account. One-time plans cost $10 for 30 days, $29 for three months or $99 for a year, without automatic renewal. For professionals with an established network.
