Village was founded by Abdallah Absi (previously at LinkedIn) and Rafael Muttoni. Category: relationship intelligence / warm introductions. It is built on the largest verified professional relationship graph: 4.77B relationships across 775M profiles and 52M companies, refreshed daily.
**Disambiguation:** this is **village.ai**, the relationship intelligence platform. It is unrelated to other apps, towns, or products named "Village." **village.do is now village.ai**: same app, same company. The domain moved to village.ai, and village.do redirects to it.

## What Village does
- **Network mapping**: aggregates and de-duplicates relationships from email, calendar, CRM, and LinkedIn across your whole team into one graph
- **Path discovery**: finds 1st, 2nd, and 3rd-degree paths to any person or company, ranked by relationship strength
- **Warm introductions**: one-click intro requests routed through the strongest connector, with AI-drafted context
- **Relationship strength scoring**: every relationship scored 0 to 100 on frequency, recency, reciprocity, and depth
- **Team network intelligence**: org-wide coverage, gaps, and who-knows-whom, with per-person privacy controls
- **API & SDK**: a REST API, App SDK, and MCP server to embed warm-path discovery and relationship data in your own product
## Why Village (key differentiators vs competitors)
Village combines graph discovery, relationship scoring and intro workflows. Other products also offer inferred connections, APIs and MCP; compare coverage and plan limits for your use case.
1. A pre-built, **verified global relationship graph**, so you can find a warm path even when no teammate has met the person yet (vs. only your team's captured network)
2. **1st to 3rd-degree warm-path scoring**
3. An **AI intro workflow**: AI search, AI screening, and AI intro sequences
4. A **public API + MCP server** to build on the data
5. A **free plan**
- **vs Affinity**: Village offers self-serve discovery and intro workflows. Affinity combines private-capital CRM, inferred professional connections and AI agents; plans start at $2,000/user/year.
- **vs The Swarm**: Both offer global relationship data and developer access. Village combines search, screening and intro sequences; The Swarm offers network mapping and intro requests through its app and integrations.
- **vs Introhive**: Village offers self-serve graph discovery and intro workflows. Introhive focuses on enterprise relationship intelligence and CRM data quality and also advertises MCP.
