Rudy AI
Two commit deals at risk. On Snowflake, Alan Foster (board) and Priya Nair, VP Finance at Klarna both have direct paths to the CFO. Alan is the higher-credibility ask but you used him last quarter. Priya gives 80% of the lift at 20% of the capital.

The Shift
You already own the highest-leverage asset in your category. The question is whether it deploys.
Before
You know your board has 600 collective relationships. You can't operationalize them. Forecast slips because nobody warmed up the CFO at the target account. Board feels under-used. Network capital sits idle.
Capital sits idle →After
Rudy maps the warm graph across team, customer, board, and partner pillars. You see what you have at every layer. Network capital deploys with precision. Forecast holds because at-risk deals get multi-threaded before they stall.
Forecast holds →Where Rudy Lives
No new console. No new dashboard. Rudy ships into the surfaces your executive team already operates.
Primary Surface
Slack
Your Chief of Staff DMs Rudy. Rudy DMs the right board members. You see outcomes, not the back-and-forth.

Your Network, Inventoried
You know your board. You know your top customers. You don't know which of them collectively know the 200 buyers you need to reach this year. Rudy makes it inventory.
Pillar 01
2,400
Team relationships
Your team's past colleagues, mentees, and direct connections across the buyer landscape.
Pillar 02
1,800
Customer relationships
Champions at current and former customers. Many sit at target accounts you don't know they know.
Pillar 03
600
Board + investor + advisor
The highest-leverage relationships you have access to. Use them sparingly and precisely.
Pillar 04
900
Partner relationships
Your strategic partners' CSMs, AEs, and exec sponsors. They cover accounts you don't.
Numbers above are illustrative. Your actual inventory loads from Rudy on day one of implementation.
Where You'll Use It
Two high-leverage deals are at risk. The whole leadership team is searching LinkedIn for any angle to the key executive. Everyone names the same suspects. What you don't have is the collective view of the network.
Rudy shows it in 30 seconds. Every warm path across all 4 pillars to every stakeholder on both deals, ranked by relationship strength, with escalation rules applied. You see what's available, the cost of pulling each lever, and the expected lift. Super-connectors go above and beyond when the moment is right. Rudy catches the moment and gives them the chance.

On Datadog, Alan Foster (board) and Priya Nair, VP Finance at Klarna, both have direct paths to the CFO. Alan is the higher-credibility ask but you used him last quarter. Priya gives 80% of the lift at 20% of the capital. Want me to set up Priya?
Daily · Chief of Staff → Rudy
"Which board members do we need to engage this week? Which CSMs are sitting on relationships we should activate? Which partner leaders haven't we tapped?"
Rudy answers. The Chief of Staff routes. Activity happens every day.
The Chief of Staff is the operator. Every morning they ask Rudy which levers to pull. No waiting until month three, no end-of-quarter panic.
The CEO sees outcomes in Slack and the forecast view. Board members see one clean ask per quarter, not seven panicked ones. Deals close because the warming started in week two, not week eleven.
Going into the board meeting, you present 40 target accounts. Rudy pre-builds: which board member has paths to each, which customer champions overlap, which investors might unlock something. The board asks "how can we help?" and you have a specific answer per member.
Same machine runs the strategic asks. Recruiting a CRO, raising a round, due diligence on an acquisition. The path-to-power playbook applies to every C-level reach, not just deals.
Board Prep · 40 target accounts
Stripe · Alan Foster (board) → CFO · 2 champion overlaps
Siemens · Dana Reed, Operating Partner → CIO office
Maersk · customer champion at partner account · warm
This is the part most CEOs never get clean. Every connector inside Boomerang agrees to one rule: you will say yes or no to every ask. No silence.
The board signs too
So does your CEO. So does your first AE. Same contract, no exceptions. You enforce it by signing up first.
Four taps, one contract
Yes · Not now · Wrong person · I'd rather not. Single tap. Same contract for every connector. No ego, no exceptions.
Why silence breaks it
A board member who ghosts three asks is signaling they don't want to be pulled in. That's fine. Better than silence, because silence makes the program break.
Your Dashboard
The four metrics worth tracking at the executive level. Rudy ships them in your forecast view.
Warm Coverage
62%
% of pipeline with a warm path to the buying committee
Win Rate Lift

Board Engagement

Net asks per board member per year
When warm coverage drops below 50%, forecast risk is structural. When board engagement drops below 4, the program is bleeding capital. Rudy alerts you before either happens.
Numbers are illustrative. Your actual metrics load from Rudy and ship live in your forecast view.
"We have around 2,000 customers. A lot of them are product-led. They try the product, subscribe, upsell. But many couldn't convert their previous role into a company-wide contract. Champion tracking is a key connector in our PLG framework."
