01
Open the LinkedIn page
Start on the person or company page you are already reviewing. The extension reads only the browser-visible page title and URL.
Extension MVP now available
Start with one verified signal.
WhyNow now offers an installable Chrome extension that reads browser-visible page context and validates one fact you provide. It does not yet discover signals automatically or generate a live opener.
The sample is illustrative. The extension never reads LinkedIn page content or sends a message for you.
Proof, not a promise
See the signal → opener.
Start with visible context. Then decide whether the opener earns a place in your outreach.

The draft selects funding context only. Review, edit, or skip it before copy.
Illustrative output — generated from the signals shown. It is not customer proof or live LinkedIn data.

Why not just ask ChatGPT?
ChatGPT can write the line. You still have to do the research.
With ChatGPT, you first gather recent context and assemble the prompt. WhyNow has that context sourced and ready on the LinkedIn page, so you avoid the usual 10–15-minute research loop.

Bring one verified signal
