I want to message this person and in a way that he definitely responds to that. And I want to attach demo video of orris and what we are doing and why we want to connect.

I need a bit more context before writing this message to make it land well.
Asking for Preferences

What is Orris? Give me a 1-2 sentence description of what it does so I can tailor the message accurately. · Why specifically do you want to connect with Sherman? (He's an ER physician at Stanford + a16z bio+health venture partner) · Who is sending this message? (So I can personalize the sign-off)

Two quick follow-ups to make this message genuinely compelling:
Asking for Preferences

What does Orris specifically help clinicians do? Pick the closest fit (or describe it briefly). · What name should I sign the message with?

What's your name? Just type it in and I'll finalize the message right away.

Here's the message, written to hit the right notes for someone who is both a practicing ER physician and a venture partner at a16z - so it speaks to both sides of him:
LinkedIn Message to Sherman L.
Hi Sherman,
I'm Takshit, co-founder of Orris - an AI clinical decision and research tool built specifically for physicians. We're already being used by thousands of doctors, and the feedback from the frontlines has been remarkable.
I'm attaching a short demo so you can see it in action - I think you'll appreciate it both as an ER physician and from a venture lens.
We'd love your perspective: what resonates, what's missing, and whether there's a conversation worth having on the a16z bio+health side.
Would a 20-minute call work for you?
  • Takshit, Co-founder, Orris
Why this works:
  • Opens with proof ("thousands of doctors") - not just a pitch, signals real traction
  • Attaches the demo directly - removes friction, lets him evaluate instantly
  • Speaks to both identities - ER physician first, then the a16z angle. He'll respect that you see him as a clinician, not just a checkbook
  • Ends with a single, low-friction ask - a 20-min call, not a vague "let's connect"
  • Short - people like Sherman get dozens of messages; this respects his time
When you send it: Attach the Orris demo video directly to the LinkedIn message. Keep the message exactly this length - do not add more context. Shorter = more likely to get read and replied to.

this is what i have sent him. now i will find more such profiles and we will create messages for them one by one.

Message sent and invitation is out - great execution. I can see it went through with the demo video link and the Orris website.
Ready when you are. Just share the next profile screenshot and I'll write a tailored message for them right away.
