Hanki × startup ecosystems

The Evolution of the Handshake

Tap-to-connect networking, referral tracking, and contact tracing — built for startup hubs, events, and portfolio companies.

The problem

1 · Face to face

The handshake still works. The room is buzzing.

Capturing digital leads face to face is cumbersome.

The problem

2 · Accessibility

Loud room. QR mid-conversation.

Not everyone catches the referral.

The problem

3 · Contact tracing

You host the networking. Safety is on you.

Who met whom? No trail.

The opportunity

Word of mouth

Imagine if your hub could see how introductions, brand ambassadors, founders and community members influence startup growth through word of mouth.

Platform

Analytics

Organisational insights from real handshakes — anonymous data sharing, actionable dashboards, and targeted notifications.

Journey · Step 1

Adoption

A hub member downloads Hanki, installs, and selects from the startup portfolio — one tap to join the network.

Journey · Step 2

Select a startup

Pick from your organisation's portfolio before networking — every handshake tied to the right startup from the first tap.

Journey · Step 3

Scan lanyard

Tap a Hankey on a lanyard or wristband at an event — no QR, no broken conversation. Wearables hand off straight into the app.

Journey · Step 4

Share phone-to-phone

Founders and ambassadors share phone-to-phone — both sides land on the same branded experience, referral tracked instantly.

Pair in person

Once both phones have the app installed, press and hold each heart at the same time while you're within about 30 cm of each other. When both hearts turn green, you're anonymously connected — and the magic can begin.

Hardware

Hankeys & wearables

Wristbands, keychains, and lanyard tags — built for live events and always-on ambassadors. Tap wrist-to-wrist or wearable-to-wearable when phones stay in pockets.

Platform

Connections mapped

See how introductions ripple through your ecosystem — 1st, 2nd, and 3rd degree links mapped for hubs and portfolio teams, with privacy intact.

Device 1

Letter of intent

Intent to use word-of-mouth tracking

A one-tap signal that you would use methods to track word of mouth — capturing introductions, referrals, and handshake moments so hubs and teams can see how networks actually form.

Your intent

I want WOM tracking

Show partners and funders there is real appetite for tooling that traces word of mouth — tap-to-connect, referral trails, and connection mapping for startup ecosystems.
