## AI contact intelligence

Skyp scores every contact against your ICP before writing a single word. Firm fit, persona fit, live web signals, and first-party data combine into a single enrichment layer that informs every message.

### Handwritten emails, by AI

Skyp's AI researches every contact before writing -- their role, recent news, tech stack, open positions. Each email is written from scratch for that person. No templates, no merge fields, no detectable patterns.
