Bookface Investor Matching

For YC ecosystem users, Slashy matches contacts against Bookface investor data using four strategies (in confidence order):
1

Email domain match

Contact’s domain matches a known fund domain
2

Exact name match

Name exactly matches a known investor at the same domain
3

Fuzzy name (same domain)

Fuzzy name match within the same domain
4

Fuzzy name (global)

Fuzzy name match across all known investors
Investor profiles appear automatically for whitelisted users when viewing email from a matched investor.
