Conoto - Take your relationships to the next level | Product Hunt

Take your relationships to the next level

👋 Hey! Nice to meet you. I'm based in San Francisco. I build stuff that I need and that I use. If they work for me, they might work for you too.

Why I created Conoto (short for contacts, notes, todos, … and more):

Forgetting information about other people, both professionally and personally, make interpersonal relationships less effective.

In a professional setting, forgetting important details about clients or colleagues leads to misunderstandings and a lack of connection, which hinders collaboration and productivity.

In a personal setting, forgetting important details about friends and loved ones comes across as disinterest or a lack of effort in the relationship, and makes it more difficult to communicate and connect with those individuals.

To improve interpersonal relationships, both professionally and personally, it's important to make an effort to remember details about the people we care about and to show interest in their lives. By actively listening, asking questions, and making an effort to remember what we are told, we can strengthen our relationships and improve communication with others.

The problem with the current tools is that either they are: - too complex (who likes to use a CRM?), - too expensive, - too dependent on an internet connection (too slow to open, data saved on servers, thus privacy/security not guaranteed), - or you have to juggle between different apps and put information in multiple places.

I decided to create the ideal tool for myself (and hopefully for you too).

Conoto helps me in remembering what is meaningful and improving my professional and personal relationships.

Conoto app addresses my concerns and meets my needs: - Developed to operate off-line at the core (i.e. private, safe and secure) - Lightning quick (no need to connect to the internet, no need to load heavy files or media) - Optional free backup and synchronization via Apple iCloud. (You don't have to trust me or any other company; just Apple. And if you don't trust Apple's infrastructure, I'm afraid I can't help you.) - A central location for my contacts (with more details than any other app (such as physical and personality traits, notes, todos/reminders/action items, and relationships between my contacts). - Very complex searches that I can save and reuse at any time.

For all of these reasons, I made the switch and now handle everything about people (including my personal notes and tasks) on Conoto.

Conoto has undergone extensive testing on iPhone 14 Pro/iOS 16.2 and macOS Ventura 13.2. If you have a different setup, please let me know if you find any bugs.

If you made it there, I appreciate your help. Thanks 🙏
