Overview

AI-generated overview

Folkso lets an assistant find real people for a task or project and send them a request after you confirm.

What it does
Folkso is a talent and people-matching service that runs as a remote MCP endpoint. You describe who you need and how you like to work, and the assistant shows matching people as cards drawn from profiles whose owners chose to appear in AI answers. You can open a card for details, ask the assistant to draft a message, and create or edit your own Folkso profile. A request is sent only after you see a preview and confirm it.
When to use it
Use it when you are looking for a person rather than information: hiring for a job or paid project, finding startup teammates, a mentor, or someone to meet up with in a city. It is not a general search or knowledge tool.
Requirements
A remote endpoint at folkso.app; no local package or runtime is needed. You sign in with Google or an email code, and the same account works across ChatGPT, Claude, Claude Code and Codex. Installation is done through each client's plugin or connector flow.
Before you install
The service receives the conditions of your task and a short summary of it, though it states it does not read your chat history or your AI's memory. Your own contacts reach the model masked, and other people's contacts are only exchanged inside Folkso after a request is accepted. Messages to other people are sent only after you review a preview and confirm, so check the preview before approving.
