Next
Your queue of suggested next actions
Every card tells you what it is, exactly what happens if you approve it, and the evidence behind it — before you ever click.
Updated 5 Oct 2026
This is the suggestions queue, not the ranked worklist
Next reviews stage moves and drafts one card at a time — it is not the ranked, best-first list of who to contact next. That is your worklist, ranked by whether we can reach someone and whether what we hold about them is still true. Next stays useful alongside it for reviewing the stage/draft suggestions Connection Intelligence System queues up on its own — the two answer different questions.
What a card shows
What kind of action it is
A chip up top shows the relationship stage (or the move it's suggesting), then a plain label for the action itself — Move stage, Draft, Note, Enrich, Review, or Follow up.
Why now
A short, plain-English reason sits right under the title — e.g. “High fit and not yet engaged” — so you never have to guess why this card is here.
Exactly what Approve does
Every card carries an “Approving will:” line, always visible, stating the real consequence in one sentence — move this person to a named stage, queue a draft for your review in Control, add a note, flag for enrichment. Nothing is ever a surprise after you click.
More evidence, one click deeper
Tap “Show evidence” for the fuller picture where it exists — fit score, opportunity read, engagement, last contact. Only fields that genuinely exist are shown; nothing is invented to fill a gap.
Preview a draft before it's queued
For a suggestion that would draft a message, tap “Preview the draft” to read the exact text before deciding — never a guess at what it might say.
Every card names who it's about
A card whose contact record can't be found — say it was merged into another record since the suggestion was queued — is held back from the queue rather than shown without a name or evidence to check.
If something is held back, the page says so
The number on the badge and the number on the page always add up. When a suggestion isn't shown — held-back contacts above, or more pending than the page currently displays at once — a line under the count says how many and why, so the total is never silently smaller than what's actually waiting.
Deciding a card
Approve
Does exactly what the consequence line says — moves a stage, queues a draft in Control, adds a note, or flags for enrichment. A drafted message is never sent from here; it waits in Control for your review and sign-off.
Edit
Available on a draft or a review card — change the wording before it's queued, or pick which stage to place someone in, right there on the card.
Skip
One click, no reason required. If you want to leave a note on why (e.g. “already spoke to them yesterday”), “Skip with a reason” is there but never required.
If a send pauses with a domain warning
Now and again a send from Control pauses instead of going out, because the recipient’s email domain does not match the company we hold on file for them, the sort of thing that happens when someone has changed jobs and the record has not caught up yet. It is only a check, not a refusal: the reason is shown right there on the result, and a button reading “Send anyway, I have checked this address” sends it the moment you have had a look and you are happy the address is right.
Keeping the queue current
Refresh runs the generator, not a guess
The queue does not top itself up silently in the background — use Refresh to run the generator and pull in anything new. If there's nothing new, it says so honestly rather than manufacturing a card to fill the list.
A few cards arrive on their own each morning
If your Gmail is connected and labelling LinkedIn notifications, a small overnight check can already have queued a Draft card by the time you open Next, for someone accepting your connection request, starting a new role, or moving company. Each one names the real reason ("Why now") straight from that notification, and it is skipped entirely for anyone your ICP already rules out. It is never sent on its own. It waits here, exactly like any other Draft card, for you to Preview, Edit or Approve.
Bridges only you can build
Pairs you know who have never met
Above your queue, and on your Map, you may see up to three pairs. You know both people, nothing on record connects them, and nobody else in your own network knows both. Each pair says why they fit, in plain words such as same sector, same kind of role or same stage. It only uses what you already hold about them, and only your own contacts. Nothing is sent. If you want to introduce them, open either person and use the usual introduction route, where both sides say yes first. With no pairs yet, you will see a short, calm note instead.
Opening a contact from a card
A way back to the queue
Tapping a contact's name opens their full record; a “← Next” link sits above the record so you can return and pick up the next card without hunting for your way back.
