Conspire Expands Its Network So You Can Expand Yours

BOULDER, Colo., Feb. 25, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Conspire, a professional network that analyzes email relationships to get you the best possible introduction to any person or company, today announced that it is opening up access to its network to anyone with an email account that supports the common IMAP protocol. Conspire's network has grown to reach more than 36 million people solely from users of Gmail and Google Apps email accounts, and has grown by more than one million people weekly over the last three months.

In addition to expanding access to its network, Conspire is now also the first ever crowd-sourced professional network with the addition of editable profiles. Every user will now have the ability to edit the profiles of the people in their network, including updating work history, links to social profiles, and photos.

"We built Conspire because other professional networks treat every connection exactly the same, whether it's a connection with a close colleague or someone you dont even remember," said Alex Devkar, co-founder and CEO of Conspire. "We view a professional network differently—it's a living organism. Relationships fade and get stronger. By analyzing email data, we stay up-to-date and accurate without the user having to do anything. We provide users a much better understanding of the real professional graph."

Conspire securely analyzes a user's To, From, Cc, Bcc and Date email headers—equivalent to the outside of the envelope—to determine how well a user knows each of their contacts and how well those contacts, in turn, know their own contacts. With this understanding, Conspire gives users intelligent access to their actual professional network to create more meaningful connections.

"Conspire understands the real strength of each relationship in a way no other professional network does," said Techstars co-founder and CEO David Cohen, who also serves on Conspire's board of directors. "What's so powerful about Conspire is that it becomes more valuable as more users adopt the service and extend the reach of the network."

The launch also coincides with a bold, sleek user interface upgrade. Users navigate their networks by searching and selecting the person or company of interest and immediately see their strongest paths of connections. Each path shows a clear indicator of relationship strength and contextual "cards" with profile information for each person.
