Meet the superconnector
What is Boardy, and why he is special
Created by Andrew D'Souza, Boardy is an AI superconnector built to remove networking friction. He does not send you into a static directory or a pile of cold messages. He picks up the phone.
He is the AI
Boardy runs natural voice calls and chats. He asks who you are, what you need, and who you should meet next, then he remembers it.
He does the work
In the 20-day Break Room he calls founders and investors himself, listens for real fit, and only makes the introduction when both sides opt in.
He is in the room
World-famous at this, and one of Ayman's closest friends. That is why he is the special guest, not a logo in the footer.
Ways in
Three ways in. One destination.
Pick the path that suits you. Each one ends with your seat on Luma.
