Do you have a Twitter account?
You know those “Zach liked this tweet” and “Zach followed this user” notifications?
Well I made an iOS app that shows the top liked tweets and top followed users in your network

So we talked to a lot of people. Like, a lot. And probably half the people we talked to have one or more notes they use to remember things about people they meet.
In fact, the people who do are some of our favorite people!
Some, like
@exleyja
, have a separate note per meeting.

What doesn't this have? A complex tagging system, funnels, rigid follow up reminders, categories, labels. There's no inbox. Not even an overall number.
You don't need them, promise! Just jot thoughts down during or after meetings and we’ll take care of the rest.

After trying specialized apps for this — Contactually, Fullcontact, Cloze, etc. — most have ended up sporadically using Excel or Airtable in some capacity, but spreadsheets are the general purpose do-everything-badly version of this.
Nobody is happy with their current system.
