From a name to the whole relationship
Press Command K and type. Universal search is the fastest route to anything in O: a person, a conversation, a company.
Find someone and you can open every exchange you have had with them, then open the profile in full.
What a profile holds
A profile in O is built from several angles at once. Their skills and professional history. The warm introductions available to them, worked out from who has been where and done what. And what sits between the two of you: the conversational threads, the context, the shared companies and skills that make this an established relationship rather than a name.
Then the history itself, your messages and email alongside their professional record, so you can see the whole thing in one view instead of three tabs.
Companies too
Search a company and you get the organisation in full, including who you know working there now. That is usually the question behind the question.
