What students are saying

I messaged an alumni on a Monday and had a coffee chat that Friday. Got a referral two weeks later. Necto actually works.

Maya R.

Junior, Finance · Boston University

As an alumni I always wanted to help students but LinkedIn felt too formal. Necto makes it easy to have real conversations.

David K.

Alumni, Class of '22 · Northeastern University

Found my summer internship through an opportunity posted by an alumni in my exact major. Couldn't have found it anywhere else.

The name

Born from the word conecto

Necto was built around a simple idea. The most meaningful connections happen close to home. The name comes from conecto, the Spanish word for "I connect." We stripped it back to its essence: Necto. A place to connect with the people who share your school, your story, and your ambitions.
