Discover, organize, and deepen all your personal and professional relationships with Mesh, a beautiful and intuitive contacts app, lightweight CRM, and more. Formerly known as Clay — same app, new name! People make us laugh, challenge us to improve, support us when things are tough, and celebrate with us once they get better. But staying in touch with the people that matter thoughtfully is difficult. TRY MESH FOR FREE Before Mesh, being thoughtful required relying on your memory as well as a mix of spreadsheets, notecards, address books, and other tools. In addition to being difficult to manage, this approach let important relationships, moments, and context fall through the cracks. That’s why we created Mesh—a stunning, intuitive, and private home for your relationships, built automatically from your email, calendar, address book, LinkedIn, Twitter, and iMessage. Mesh helps you show up informed by creating and automatically updating beautiful cards for each of your contacts with context such as profile photos, bios, education and work history, location, and social profiles. In addition, you can use powerful features such as natural-language search, dictation and note taking, reminders, birthday notifications, news articles about people you know, reconnection cadences, and more to deepen your relationships over time. REMEMBER THE IMPORTANT THINGS Mesh is the fastest and most powerful way to take notes before, during, and after a conversation with someone. Remember kids names, vacation itineraries, and that last article you read that you’ve been dying to share, all by writing a note on someone's card. REACH OUT AT THE RIGHT MOMENT Set a reminder for particular days—like a birthday or anniversary—or pick a reconnection cadence so you don’t lose touch. ORGANIZE YOUR RELATIONSHIPS Dinner party faves? Book club? High school friends? Easily add people to groups so you can organize people however makes sense to you. Then, use those groups to make organizing events easier and faster. SEARCH LIKE YOU THINK You remember people in different ways—where you last met to catch up, when you last saw them, what you talked about. Just type what comes to mind and Mesh will find the right person or group of people based on your notes and their profile, all in milliseconds. It's the easiest, most powerful person search available anywhere. STAY ON TOP OF THINGS Never miss a beat with Home—a powerful, high-level view of all the updates from your entire network.
