Could you build this?
No The product's value is a large, accurate person-profile dataset, which a builder cannot assemble from scratch and which raises serious privacy and legal questions.
What it would actually take: A real version requires a large, continuously updated corpus of professional profiles (roles, employers, schools, skills) built from licensed or scraped sources, plus entity resolution and search indexing at scale. Acquiring that data legally and keeping it accurate needs data partnerships, compliance expertise (GDPR, CCPA), and significant infrastructure.
