This guide walks you from a fresh account to a ranked list of warm intro paths your team can run today.

​
1. Create your ecosystem

After signing up, you’ll be prompted to create an ecosystem. An ecosystem is a self-contained workspace for one GTM motion: it holds your ICP definition, your target accounts, and the team members whose networks you want to map.
Most teams start with a single ecosystem for their primary outbound motion. You can spin up additional ecosystems later for new products, segments, or geographies.
Give your ecosystem a name (e.g. Enterprise mid-market US) and a short description of who you’re selling to.

​
2. Add your team’s connectors

A connector is a teammate whose LinkedIn network HiveSight should map. The more connectors you add, the more warm paths you’ll find. A few ways to add connectors:
Add a single connector by their LinkedIn profile URL. Useful for teammates, advisors, board members, or investors one at a time.
Upload a list of LinkedIn URLs. Best for onboarding a larger group at once.
Run a Google Calendar backfill on a teammate to add the people they’ve met with frequently, or a LinkedIn close-connections sync to pull in their high-engagement network. Both run on schedules and keep the graph fresh without manual upkeep.

​
3. Define your ICP

Describe your ideal customer in plain English. Something like:
Series B–D B2B SaaS companies in North America, 200–1,500 employees, selling to revenue teams. Buyer is a VP/Director of RevOps, Sales, or Marketing Ops.
HiveSight uses this definition to classify every person in your team’s network into one of three buckets:
  • Direct buyer — the person who makes the purchase decision.
  • Adjacent buyer — an influencer or stakeholder in the buying motion.
  • Intel — someone with useful context on the account (employee, alum, partner).
ICP classifications refresh on a regular cron. New connectors are classified within an hour or two of being added.

​
4. Add target accounts

Tell HiveSight which companies you want to break into. Two ways:
  • Manual — paste a company name or LinkedIn URL one at a time.
  • CSV upload — upload your target account list in bulk.
You can also start with an empty target list and use the Explore tab to surface companies your team is already connected to that match your ICP.

​
5. See your top intro paths

Once your network is mapped (usually within a few hours) the Dashboard ranks the highest-leverage intro paths your team can run today. Each card shows:
  • The target person and their company
  • The strongest connector on your team who can open the door
  • The connection strength tier (Very likely / Likely / Possible / Cold)
  • The ICP fit segment
Click Save as opportunity to pull a path into your pipeline, where you can track status, add notes, and (if HubSpot is connected) write the opportunity back to your CRM.
