NewFollow-ups that stop when they reply

Get an inroad, not a rejection email.

Inroad finds companies that fit you, reads up on each one, finds the person who can hire you, and drafts a note that sounds like you did an hour of homework. You send it from your own Gmail.

You.

One profile. Six years of work, the stack you know, the kind of team you want to join. Everything Inroad does starts from here, not from a job board.

Why this works

Job boards put you in a queue for a vacancy. Inroad starts with companies that fit you, reads what they just announced, and helps you write to the one person who can say yes, whether or not a role is posted.

How it works

Three steps. One of them is yours.

Inroad does the finding and the reading. You do the part that matters: deciding who to write to, and pressing Send.

01

Find companies that actually fit what you want.

  • Matched on role, stack, stage and how they work
  • One domain becomes one dossier
  • Every score comes with the reason behind it

and 9 more, each with the reasons spelled out

02

Research the details worth mentioning, fast.

  • Homepage, news and hiring read in parallel
  • Every fact links back to its source
  • Nothing goes in a draft unverified

Send outreach that sounds like you, not a template.

  • Drafts built from your profile and real facts
  • Tone and length are yours to tune
  • Always your call before anything sends

Hope your week is going well. Congrats on the Series B, the ledger platform team caught my eye.

Every fact has a source

If Inroad can't point to where it read something, it doesn't go in your draft.

Before

The old loop

  1. Search for a fit
  2. Open too many tabs
  3. Try to find a reason
  4. Write from memory
  5. Hope it lands

With Inroad

The new one

  1. Get twelve companies that fit
  2. Read one dossier, not twenty tabs
  3. Start from a real reason to write
  4. Edit a draft that already sounds like you
  5. Send it yourself, and follow up on time

From early access

They stopped applying. They started writing.

I sent eleven emails in two weeks and had four calls. The cited answers meant I could check every claim before I wrote a word.
Amara OseiPayments startup, LisbonLandedBackend Engineer
I used to spend a whole evening on one company. Now I read the cited answer over coffee and edit the draft. It still sounds like me.
Lukas BrennerSeries A infra, MunichLandedPlatform Engineer
The source chips are the whole thing. I never sent a line I couldn't back up, and two founders mentioned that I'd clearly done my homework.
Sofia MarchettiSeed fintech, MilanLandedProduct Designer
Job boards had me at 0 for 60. Inroad found the CTO, told me why now, and I had an intro call in nine days.
Daniel ParkClimate software, BerlinLandedData Engineer
I liked that nothing sends without me. I rewrote half the first draft, and kept the facts.
Hana YoshidaDeveloper tools, AmsterdamLandedFrontend Engineer
Asking 'who can actually hire me here' and getting a name, a reason and a verified email felt like cheating. It isn't. It's just research.
Ravi MenonLogistics, RotterdamLandedEngineering Manager
The follow-up reminders saved me. The reply came on the third email, from a VP who said she'd been meaning to answer.
Claire DuboisHealth tech, ParisLandedData Scientist
I asked about remote Go teams and got six companies with the reason for each. Three became conversations.
Tomasz NowakRemote, EULandedBackend Engineer
It's the first job tool that works for me instead of for recruiters.
