The problem

Because timing is invisible on a profile.

01

Great profile, wrong month

Promoted last week, a perfect match says “not now”.

02

Everyone writes to the same people

Open-to-work profiles get a dozen messages a day. The quietly ready get none.

03

Silence looks like a no

You can’t tell “not interested” from “not now”.

Umamy Momentum reads the timing for you.

Your team writes first to the people most likely to take the call, and keeps the others warm.
