How it works

Three taps. Done.

Find your real people

blade scans your inbox and rounds up every actual human who's emailed you — ranked by who you talk to most.

Skip the junk

No-reply, receipts, that one-off from 2019 — gone. You pick exactly who's worth a message.

Keep it fresh

Re-scan whenever you like to spot new people you've started talking to and keep your list current.

15–30×
vs. a post to your followers

A post goes to an algorithm. An email goes to someone who already knows your name — and actually opens it.

Made for

The people doing the thing.

Authors

Get launch-week readers from people who already know you.

Founders & makers

Announce it to a warm room, not crickets.

Going independent

Tell everyone you've worked with that you're open.
