Only 2% of the information your team gathers ends up in the CRM.
Nexco is an intelligence layer that sits on top of the CRM your firm already uses. It captures what your team learns, structures it, and puts it to work: in your next report, and in your next search.
Every conversation should make the firm smarter.
“At last, the age-old aspiration of an evergreen, real-time database delivering a truly competitive advantage is a reality.”
— Jeremy Rickman, Former Senior Partner, Russell Reynolds AssociatesThe things that decide a search are rarely in a CV or on LinkedIn. Who someone trusts. Why they stayed longer than expected. What would actually move them. Your team learns this constantly, then most of it scatters into inboxes and personal notes, where the next search cannot reach it. Nexco captures what your firm decides is worth keeping, as it is learned.
Not another application to check or download. Facts, relationships and judgements are structured and written into your existing CRM, so your team works from everything the firm knows rather than what one consultant happens to remember. Nexco then produces the deliverables from it. Candidate reports and client updates, written in your firm's format.
Most firms begin each assignment on Google and LinkedIn, rebuilding knowledge they already had but couldn't retrieve. Because Nexco has been capturing and structuring what your team learns all along, your firm starts from what it already knows: previous conversations, assessments and relationships, current and searchable. The gap between you and your competitors widens with each search.
“I always ask our search firms the same question — what do you know about this person that I can't find out myself? The ones who bring me genuine insight, not just a CV and a phone screen, are the ones I keep working with.”Talent Partner, Major PE Firm
2026 report, second edition
Our second report is out. Forty interviews with AI leaders at search firms, across two rounds of research: what's working, what's failing, and what separates the firms getting real value from the ones still experimenting.
"Our CRM is predominantly a GDPR tick-box exercise. As a source for our next placement? Not great."
Partner, Boutique firm
AI is making public information easy for every firm to find, and the tools that do it are available to anyone with a credit card.
What they cannot supply is what your people know: relationships, motivations, assessments and judgement built over years of conversations. Most firms are leaking that knowledge faster than they capture it, and starting each search by rebuilding what the firm already knew.
Your edge is what your firm knows. We make it usable.
Security
Your firm handles C-suite personal data. This isn't compliance theatre.
If you're exploring AI strategy, piloting with one role, or ready to scale - we've worked with firms in all three positions.
