Stardex Product Update #22

Dynamic Market Mapping: Give it your target companies and the titles you care about, and it lays out a grid of everyone at those companies who fits, pulling from your own database. It separates current fits, past fits, and step-ups, tells you why each person passed or failed your criteria, and shows exactly where your coverage gaps are so you know which companies still need work. It’ll support external look up soon as well.

Candidate nurture campaigns: Nurture is a new campaign type built for staying in touch with candidates or near-misses, paced for long-term touch points rather than active outreach. You can drop someone into one the moment they’re placed or passed on.

Campaign recipients tab: You can now slice and dice campaign recipients and add them to new campaigns in bulk in the revamped campaign recipients tab! This allows you to retarget candidates that may not have responded to a campaign a couple months ago with a new message.

Granola integration: A lot of our customers have enjoyed using granola for note taking, and we wanted to make it easier to support that. No more Zapier workflows now as we support a native integration. Notes or full transcript flow into Stardex on the right record automatically, the same way our own notetaker does.

Phone number finder: You can now pull a mobile number for a candidate without leaving Stardex. The provider behind this costs us meaningfully more than our other data sources, so it’s a credit-based add-on rather than something included by default. If you’d like it switched on for your team, just hit reply and we’ll send you pricing + get you set up!

WhatsApp sync: You can now connect WhatsApp and we’ll sync your message history onto the right person automatically, so it lands on their timeline next to email and calls. Only messages associated to the candidates in the database are synced.

Quality of Life:

• Campaigns variables during bulk enrollment. We’ve made it much easier to clear variables, override them in bulk. We’ve also added some new default variables like search name that make it easier to use campaigns for more dynamic use cases.

• Ask Dex handles context much better. It now picks up meeting recordings and stays anchored to the candidate you’re actually looking at instead of drifting off.

• Client-visible activities on share links, you can now mark specific activities as client-visible so they show up in the client sharable link for a search while preserving the activity type.

• Added document and off-limits filters to people search, so you can narrow to who has a resume on file or exclude off-limits people outright.

• Noon and Devyce are now supported alongside our other calling integrations.

• Campaign steps that need someone to actually do something now show up as pending tasks, so they stop quietly stalling a sequence.

• Company custom fields can hold multiple companies, so target company sets, former employers, or a competitor list live in a real field instead of a text blob.

• You can now blacklist email addresses and internal domains so they never sync in, which keeps internal back-and-forth and noreply traffic off candidate timelines. More controls coming here. More confidentiality when needed.

• Scorecards save as a draft, if you close one mid-fill, so partial feedback doesn’t disappear. Or misclicks don’t cost you time.

• Smaller touches: searches with open applications now carry a Live tag, and pipeline stages take any color via a wheel or hex.
