Product Updates

1.4 — Onboarding Journey Improvements

New members now get a guided start on Golden Connects: Welcome email - your approval email now includes a clear 3-step guide (complete profile → post first give → request an intro) so new members know exactly what to do from day one. Getting started checklist — for the first 14 days, a checklist appears on the dashboard tracking real progress across those 3 steps. It disappears once dismissed or completed. Give templates — the "Post a Give" form now has a "Start from a template" option with 10 industry-specific gives (IT, Finance, Real Estate, Healthcare, Marketing, and more). Pick one, swap in your contact's details, and post. Profile nudge — members with an incomplete profile (missing designation, industry, or city) see a prompt on their dashboard to fill it in.

1.2 — Common Gives - High Conversion Zone

Common Gives is now live. When two or more members post the same real-world contact, the platform automatically groups them and surfaces the contact as a high-confidence, multi-vouched introduction opportunity. Members can browse these on a new "Common Gives" tab on the Gives page, where each card shows every member who can make the introduction, with an individual request button per giver so you choose exactly who facilitates it. Members who already know the same contact can endorse the group to add their voucher (+2 credits for the endorser, +3 for the giver). Your own gives that belong to a Common Gives group now show an "Also given by" section in My Gives, so you always know who else can introduce to the same contact. On the give detail page, members who don't yet have a give in the group see a quiet prompt - "Do you also know this person?" that opens a pre-filled form to post their own. The daily digest now highlights any new Common Gives groups that formed in the last 24 hours, and the weekly digest shows the chapter's total count alongside the three most-endorsed contacts. Matching runs automatically every time a give is posted, using organisation name normalisation and similarity scoring , no manual curation needed.

V1.1 — Smart Search on Browse Gives

A new search bar sits above the gives list. Type any keyword: contact name, company, industry, or description — and see up to 6 matching gives from your chapter instantly (400 ms debounce). Each result has a Request Intro button that opens a lightweight modal so you can send your note of intent without leaving the page.
