Product Update #20

Here's what we shipped in June at Stardex.

TIP: If you want to see this in video form with a Q&A with my co-founder Pranav, register for our monthly “What’s new in Stardex” webinar if you haven’t already!

Here’s the link to register.

We're also teaming up with CoRecruit next week for a joint session on how to find the bottlenecks in your BD process, register here.

Overlapping candidates

When you look at someone's experience, you'll now see an overlap badge showing where their time lined up with other people you've worked with as well as funding trajectory when they were there. Good for spotting potential backchannel references.

Candidate visibility on share links

You can now control exactly which candidates show up on an individual client share link, as well as which fields, notes, and sections a given client sees, instead of it being all or nothing.

AI scorecard drafts

We added detailed scorecards last month, and now there's a "Generate with AI" button in the scoring modal that drafts the scorecard for you based off the interview. This way, you are editing a first pass that pulls in the relevant context instead of starting from a completely blank slate.

Customize your home page

Your home page can now be customized! You can now add a KPI band with the metrics you care about (fill rate, offers out, tasks due, and more), pick a layout, and arrange the widgets, searches, tasks, interviews, etc. Let us know what other widgets will be helpful for us to support here.

Send follow-ups on nurture campaigns

For nurture email campaigns, you can now keep sending follow-ups even after someone replies. Useful when you're trying to stay top of mind over a longer stretch rather than running one-and-done outreach.

New reporting, search-level and BD forecasting

You can now pull reports at the individual search level as well as BD forecasting by upcoming months to project your business development pipeline

Gmail in the extension

The Stardex extension now works right inside Gmail. You can pull contacts and log activity without leaving your inbox

Quality of Life:

• Drag and drop candidates in list view: Sort your pipeline by “Latest stage first” in the “Stage” column and you can now drag and drop candidates for custom ordering within a stage.

• New External User permission tier, so you can give people outside your firm limited access without handing over a full seat. External users can be set to only have access to notes in searches they are assigned to.

• Edit deal win and loss reasons right from settings.

• Job statuses have lifecycle stage assigned, meaning this can now let you auto archive when it reaches a specific stage.

• AI offer-letter fill: upload an offer letter and we'll pull the details into the offer for you.

• Board cards can be customized now to show / hide additional fields

• More coverage across our API endpoints (scorecards, activities, and more fields on jobs and deals) for teams building on top of Stardex.

• Search got smarter, including partial phone-number and email matching in Cmd+K.

• New integration: Ringover!
