👋 Hey Product Hunt! We built a better way to find people in San Francisco San Francisco is one of the most talent-dense, idea-dense cities in the world, yet finding the *right* people is still weirdly hard. You know the pain: * LinkedIn search feels rigid and keyword-y * Twitter/X, Substack, GitHub, blogs, podcasts… all fragmented * The most interesting people often don’t fit neat job titles We kept running into this problem ourselves, so we built a **people search platform designed specifically for SF**. ### 🧠 What we’re actually building At its core, this is a **search engine for people**, not resumes. We ingest messy, unstructured data from across the internet — bios, writing, projects, talks, tweets, interviews — and clean it into structured representations of: * What someone *actually works on* * What they care about * What they’re building, researching, or obsessed with right now Instead of searching: > “Founder AND AI AND healthcare” You can search: > “People in SF working on applied AI for healthcare startups who’ve written publicly about regulation” ### 🤖 Why we care about agentic search This project is also driven by a deeper obsession: **agentic search**. We don’t think search should just retrieve documents. We think it should: * Interpret intent * Expand vague queries intelligently * Decide *what to look for next* * Rank people based on reasoning, not keywords People search is a perfect testbed for this problem — the data is noisy, subjective, incomplete, and constantly changing. Exactly the kind of environment where agents matter. ### 🌉 Why start with SF? SF is small enough to be focused, but complex enough to matter: * Founders, engineers, researchers, artists, investors * Constant churn * Public thinking everywhere If we can solve people search here, it scales. ### 🚀 What’s next Right now, we’re early: * Search is live * Data quality is improving daily * Agents are still learning how to think better We’d love feedback from anyone who’s: * Tried to find collaborators, hires, or founders in SF * Frustrated with existing people search tools * Curious about where agentic search is headed Happy to answer questions, take feature requests, or hear why this is a terrible idea 😄 Thanks for checking it out 🙏
