Relationship insights driving deals

Relationship Intelligence solves the network problem shared by both dealmakers and the associates who support them. Dealmakers find and close deals. Without the right insights, they risk not being involved in the right deal—or not closing it—because they were late to engage or failed to understand the dynamics of the people involved. Most CRMs lack any automated data capture and enrichment, making data drudgery real for every firm. Affinity CRM delivers automated relationship intelligence directly within the workflow of every dealmaker. No more asking who knows the CEO at a startup and no more missing the introduction that can close the deal.

Automatically create and manage your network

With every email you send and every meeting you have, Affinity captures those in your entire firm's network to create contact and company records—saving more than 200 hours each year in data entry. Every interaction is analyzed to establish the strength and nature of the relationship, generating insights that drive dealmaking.

What is relationship intelligence?

Dealmakers miss out on high quality deals when they don't have a relationship with a founder or they lack insights about a startup. Relationship intelligence gives dealmakers insights about their firm's network, the startups or firms they target, and the history of engagement with them—so they can spend their time finding, managing, and closing the right deals.
