What are Relationship Strengths in Affinity?

A relationship strength is a numerical score given to your connections that ranges from 10 (weak) - 100 (strong). Relationship strengths are calculated based on the recency and frequency of interactions between two individuals. The scores are also ranked by different colored bars.
  1. Green bars represent strong connections
  2. Orange bars represent average connections
  3. Gray bars represent weak connections

​
Types of Connections in Affinity

  1. People You Know - These are the people you have directly communicated with.
  2. People Your Allies Know - These are the people that your allies have directly communicated with (see Getting started with Affinity Alliances).
  3. People Added Manually - These are the people that are manually associated within your Affinity instance.
  4. Inferred Connections - These are the people that you/your team can potentially get introduced to based on previous shared work experience.
    • Inferred Connections will only appear for organizations, not for people or opportunities.
    • Inferred Connections will only be available for those on the Scale, Advanced, and Enterprise tiers. If you’re interested in upgrading to one of these new tiers, please reach out to your Affinity point of contact or support@affinity.co.
