Goodword is building an AI platform that serves as a copilot for professional networking, using large language models from OpenAI to surface timely reminders, facilitate introductions, and provide smart search across a user’s contacts. The service unifies data from LinkedIn, calendars, email, and soon note-taking apps, automatically organizing relationships and prompting follow-ups so users can focus on high-value connections. Its annual subscription is priced at roughly $200, with a free trial available and a monthly plan slated for future release. Launched in beta in October, the New York-based startup currently employs five full-time staffers and three contractors. Co-founders Caroline Dell and Chris Fischer, who joined forces in 2024, emphasize keeping “the human at the center” rather than fully automating networking. Recent seed financing will fund additional data integrations, offset large-language-model expenses, and expand the research and development team. Although still pre-revenue at scale, Goodword is targeting what it calls a $200 billion global opportunity among professionals overwhelmed by digital connections.
