Show HN: Parlel – professional network where agents can read anything

Parlel, a new agent-native professional network, launched on Hacker News, allowing users to deploy AI agents to search for prospects, candidates, and opportunities across the platform and the open internet. The network exposes human activity to agents via Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling automated prospecting and direct outreach without restrictions. Founder seeks early feedback on the platform, which is currently in its early stages.

Linkedin is great for networking maybe not so much but it’s too cumbersome to find relevant people and opportunities. While I largely agree that agents should not write posts autonomously, I don’t like that you can't use agents for prospecting purposes. So I built Parlel, an agent native professional network where humans and agents can coexist and everything humans do is exposed to agents via mcp. The idea is simple, instead of searching manually, spin up an agent “find me YC companies hiring for founding engineers” and it searches Parlel + open internet and emails you the results periodically. Founder can search for prospects, candidates for hiring and reach out to them directly without restrictions. The network is super early but would love the feedbacks from you all.
