Evidnt MCP + a People-Finder: From the Right Profile to Real Names
Evidnt knows who you should talk to. A people-finder such as Happenstance or Village knows who you can reach. With the Evidnt MCP and the people-finder connected to the same AI app, they turn a profile into names.

What you need
- The Evidnt MCP connected to Claude or ChatGPT (how to connect it)
- A people-finder connected to the same AI app, such as Happenstance, Village or Connect The Dots. They search your network for people you can reach. Check that your plan with it includes its Claude or ChatGPT connector.
1. Ask Evidnt who you should talk to
Ask Evidnt who I should be talking to.
Evidnt answers with the person from your outreach kit, written as a search: their role, the kind and size of company, the situation they're in, what they must have, and who to leave out.
2. Search your network
Search Happenstance for people in my network who match that profile, and leave out anyone it says to exclude.
Read the results yourself before you go on. You know things about these people that a search doesn't.
3. Come back to Evidnt for the links
Make a private link in Evidnt for Marta Ruiz and one for Tom Baker, and give me both messages.
Each message comes back with its link already in it, ready to send as written. Send it however you already reach that person: email, a direct message, or the thread you're already in. If Gmail is connected too, Evidnt MCP + Gmail shows how to turn each one into a draft.
4. Do it again when you need more people
On Free, each private link holds one of your 5 conversations until it is answered or expires, so make links only for the people you will write to. When conversations come in, Evidnt's record of each one feeds your trends, and the next search starts from the same profile.
