Why connectors?
Every employee leaves behind a trail of digital breadcrumbs throughout their workday—small traces of knowledge embedded in the files they create, the discussions they contribute to, and the projects they shape. These aren’t just isolated data points; they are signals—valuable indicators of expertise that, when connected, form a comprehensive and dynamic profile of what a person truly knows.
At Starmind, our AI intelligently processes these signals by integrating with key enterprise systems—collaboration tools, document repositories, codebases, and project management platforms. Instead of relying on outdated self-reported skills or rigid organizational charts, we analyze real work outputs to derive an authentic, always-up-to-date understanding of expertise. Our connectors seamlessly tap into these knowledge streams, transforming scattered traces into structured insights.
By capturing the implicit knowledge flow within an organization, Starmind makes expertise visible, ensuring that every employee can benefit from the collective intelligence of the company.
Connectors should be enabled at the beginning of the Starmind lifecycle. Connectors eliminate the problem of a “cold start,” which happens when there is no information in the Starmind platform about a new user to build them an expertise profile. When connectors are enabled, Starmind’s algorithm can automatically create expertise profiles for every user whether or not they have already interacted on the Starmind platform.
Out-of-the-box solutions (cloud-based application)
With a cloud connector, Starmind can learn from cloud applications. The setup is straightforward and only requires around 15 min. If the application you want to connect to is not yet available, please reach out to us.
You can find some of our connectors below:
- MS Exchange Calendar (Office 365)
- Sharepoint (Office 365)
- Microsoft Teams (Office 365)
- Yammer (Office 365)
- ServiceNow
- Slack
- Confluence
- Jira
- Avendoo
Custom solutions (on-premise applications)
If the application is running on-premise, Starmind can't connect directly to the application. In that case, Starmind offers another solution to learning from such a system. More details around this approach can be found here:
