intelligence.com vs Kumu

intelligence.com helps users find useful introductions through people already connected to them. Users connect email and calendar accounts, allowing the service to map relationships and identify trusted paths to candidates, clients, partners or investors. Telli AI agents analyze people, companies and markets, then suggest who to contact, what to say and when to follow up. The agents recommend actions but do not act without user input; users choose what to share and when, and requests and introductions are handled privately. Stated uses include career growth, sales and business development, fundraising and investment, knowledge sharing and team building. The service runs on the web and has a free plan. The product page advertises SOC 2 Type II and GDPR/Data Privacy Framework certification. The trust center lists a 2025 SOC 2 Type 2 report, penetration-test validation statement, security policies and integration guides.

Kumu organizes complex data into relationship maps connecting people, systems, and concepts. It supports stakeholder, systems, social network, community asset, and concept mapping. Users can build maps by hand or import spreadsheet data, including live data from Google Sheets. Built-in analysis includes closeness, betweenness, and eigenvector centrality, plus automated community detection and clustering. Kumu also provides a presentation builder and lets users embed interactive maps on websites. It is available on the web and as self-hosted software, and the maker describes it as a tool for organizations working with complex relationships and systems, including social-sector leaders seeking to create impact. The free Basic workspace includes unlimited public projects, collaborators, maps, and views, but public projects are visible to everyone and indexed by search engines. Private projects require payment or an eligible student discount; a two-week trial of private projects is available. A private project costs $9/month per project. The Pro workspace costs $10/month per workspace, with private projects priced separately. Enterprise is billed annually per user, with self-hosted or managed cloud options, SAML single sign-on, priority support, and a 99.95% uptime SLA.
