Puvio
In short
People search for "the hiring manager," but the posting often never names them, and guessing wrong wastes the note. The path that actually moves jobs is finding people on that team and alumni at the company, then asking for a referral or intro. Start from the posting: team, seniority, stack. On LinkedIn, look for people already on that team and anyone who shares your school or prior employer. Puvio ranks those contacts, alumni first, on the same card as company research, then drafts a note you send yourself. It does not promise to name the exact hiring manager for that req.

Parse the posting for team name, stack, and seniority. Search for people already on that team and alumni from your school or prior employers at that company.
Ask for a referral, an intro, or a blunt "do not bother." That is how you get into the room. Naming the wrong manager and pitching them as if they own the req is how you burn a first impression.
Fit score, company research, and ranked contacts, alumni prioritized, on one card. Quick Message: paste any LinkedIn profile URL for a draft that sounds like you. Critic pass, then you copy and send.
No LinkedIn login. No auto-send. A hiring_manager label in the product is a heuristic tag, not a claim that we found the req owner.
