You're bad with names. We've got you. You just had a great conversation, and thirty seconds later, their name is gone. Bad With Names is the fastest way to hold onto the people you meet, before the moment slips. Walk away, tap the button, and say what you remember out loud: "Met Maya at the coffee shop, she just started a bakery, has a golden retriever named Tito." That's it. Bad With Names listens, pulls out the details that matter, and hands you a clean memory card to keep: names, the little hooks you'll actually use to remember them, and the place you met. It's not a CRM. There are no forms, no phone-number fields, no spreadsheet energy. It feels like private field notes for your social life: calm, personal, and yours. VOICE-FIRST, EFFORTLESS Speak a messy note and get back something structured. Your voice is transcribed right on your device, so your audio never leaves your phone. REMEMBER WHAT ACTUALLY MATTERS Not contact fields, but the human stuff. The memory hooks, the place you met, the thing they said they'd follow up on. REVIEW BEFORE YOU SAVE Nothing is saved until you approve it. You're always in control of what you keep. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Your memories are yours. We're built around keeping your relationships private, not mining them. FIND PEOPLE FAST Search by name, by what you remember, or by where you met. Keep track of the follow-ups you meant to do. Stop apologizing for forgetting names. Start remembering the people worth remembering.
