A foolproof first import
Ask once. Choose the ZIP. Keep control.
No passwords, extensions, or scraping. Each person requests their own archive, opens it unchanged in the browser, reviews the result, and controls whether it contributes to a shared ring.
LinkedIn · best starting point
Official steps ↗Request the larger data archive
On a computer: Settings & Privacy → Data privacy → Get a copy of your data. LinkedIn generally prepares the archive within 24 hours.
Facebook · names are often ambiguous
Official steps ↗Export Connections as JSON
Accounts Center → Your information and permissions → Export your information. Choose Connections, All time, and JSON.
Google Contacts · available now
Official steps ↗Export a Google CSV
Choose the contacts you want in Google Contacts, click Export, and select Google CSV. This does not read Gmail bodies.
Why not “Connect account”?
The official APIs do not expose the full graph.
LinkedIn restricts its Connections API and explicitly does not provide connections-of-connections. Meta's friends endpoint returns only friends who also authorized the same app. Scraping either platform would be brittle and against their rules.
Personal exports
LinkedIn connections, Facebook archives, address books, and CRM exports supplied by the network owner.
User-authorized importInteraction metadata
Consented email and calendar participants, dates, and frequency—without needing to analyze private message bodies.
Scoped connectionPublic evidence
Podcast feeds, event agendas, company bios, and credited collaborations—always labeled as shared context.
Public indexHuman confirmation
People correct identity matches, confirm relationships, set “do not contact,” and decide what can be shared.
Required reviewMVP pipeline
Make uncertainty visible.
No scraping private profiles. No automatic outreach. No “friend” label inferred from a like, follow, employer, or co-appearance.
