We noticed that professional networking is mostly profile-based: you create a static resume and hope the right people somehow discover you. But what actually drives meaningful connections is complementary intent: a founder looking for a technical co-founder, an engineer wanting to join a specific type of early-stage company, an investor actively looking for a certain thesis.

We built Alprina to match people on what they want right now, not just who they are on paper.

On Alprina, you create "intents" in natural language (what you're looking for), join networks (communities where matching happens), and our AI matches you with people whose intents complement yours. You can attach context like pitch decks or profiles so that when you match, the other side immediately understands why you're reaching out.

Would love feedback from the HN community - especially on the balance between match precision and serendipity. Too strict and you miss interesting connections; too loose and it's just noise.
