Sircol
Peer-to-peer trusted search

Warm intros to anyone,
through people you already trust.

Sircol lets you ask the people in your network to search their inbox or LinkedIn on your behalf — without ever giving up your data, or seeing theirs. Every result is approved, one by one.

Free while in early access · No credit card.

What it is

One ask. One human in the loop. One approved answer.

You ask. They search.

Send a query — an email subject, a LinkedIn search, a person you're trying to reach — to anyone you're connected with on Sircol. The work happens in their account.

They stay in control.

The recipient sees the results in their own inbox or LinkedIn first. They approve only the rows they want to share — one by one.

You only see what they approved.

The full inbox stays private. You get exactly the answer your connection chose to give you, with an optional note attached.

Use case · Sales & BD

Skip the cold outreach. Walk in warm.

Trying to break into a target account? Sircol turns your network into a smart search index. Ask three connections at once: "Who do you know at Stripe in payments partnerships?" — their LinkedIn finds the right person; your connection introduces you.

  • Send one query to many connections at once
  • Each recipient approves only the names they'd actually intro
  • You receive a short list of warm leads, not a cold dump

Example: a sender asks 5 connections for intros into Acme Corp's RevOps team.

Use case · Recruiting

Employee referrals, without the awkward Slack ask.

Referred hires stay longer, ramp faster, and cost less to source than candidates from job boards. Sircol makes referrals frictionless: every open role becomes a structured search you can send through your team's network. They approve, you interview.

How it works

From question to answer in three steps.

1

Send your query

Pick connections, choose data (LinkedIn or Email), and frame your query — a person you're trying to reach, a role at a target company, or an email subject line.

2

They approve in their inbox

Each recipient sees a Sircol request alongside the search results on their side. They check the rows worth sharing.

3

You see only what's approved

Approved results land in your outbox with an optional note. The rest never leaves their account.

Trust & privacy

Built so your connections can say yes.

Encrypted at rest.

IMAP passwords and OAuth tokens are AES-256-GCM encrypted in Sircol's database.

We never read inboxes.

Sircol queries your connection's account through their own authenticated session. No bulk pulls, no shadow copy.

Approval is per-result.

A search returning 50 rows doesn't share 50 rows. Your connection checks the ones they're willing to share — and only those.

Long-term vision

Today, two surfaces.
Tomorrow, anything your network can access.

Sircol's v1 is LinkedIn and Email — the universal first surfaces. Over time, any data source your connections can search becomes a Sircol search: their calendars, their CRMs, their files, their notes. The trust model — per-result approval, never seeing their data — stays the same.

FAQ

Questions people ask before signing up.

What if I don't want to help with a request? +
You're not obligated to respond. The simplest path is to ignore the request — it'll expire on its own. If you'd rather close the loop explicitly, you can decline. You can also open the request and approve zero results — saying "I didn't find a match" back is a perfectly valid answer.
How does the LinkedIn search work? +
You compose a LinkedIn people query — title, company, location, the usual filters. Sircol delivers that query to your connection, who runs it across their own 1st-degree LinkedIn network. They review the matches and choose which names or profile links to share back — and, if they want, make the introduction directly.
Do I need to be on Sircol to receive a request? +
No. You can send a search request to anyone — pick from your existing Sircol connections, or just type their email address. We'll loop the recipient in via email.
Does Sircol read my inbox? +
No. Sircol runs a specific search on your account — only when you (or a connected user, with your approval) ask it to. Results are scoped to that one query, and nothing leaves your inbox unless you check the rows that you want to share.
Is Sircol free? +
Yes. Up to 10 searches per week is free, forever. If you need more, Pro is $19/month (or $190/year — two months free) for 50 searches per week and response analytics. See pricing.
What data sources work today? +
LinkedIn people search, plus email (Gmail OAuth, IMAP for other providers, and Google Contacts). More data sources are on the roadmap.
