Reach - The personal CRM for freelancers who hate CRMs

by•
Tired of complex CRMs that feel like work? Reach is built for freelancers and consultants who just want to stay in touch with clients. Set a reminder frequency for each contact. Get notified when it's time to reach out. Log your interactions and never let relationships go cold. No complicated pipelines or deal stages. No subscription required for core features. Your data stays private on your devices with iCloud sync—we never see it.

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I built Reach because I kept losing touch with clients as a freelancer. I'd finish a project, move on, and six months later realize I hadn't checked in with people who could have sent me more work. I tried Clay, Dex, and even a Notion CRM. They all felt like overkill—pipelines, deal stages, integrations I'd never use. I just wanted something that would nudge me to send a quick "hey, how's it going?" every few weeks. So I built Reach: **What it does:** - Set a reach-out frequency for each contact (weekly, monthly, quarterly) - Get a notification when it's time to reconnect - Log interactions in 2 taps - Home screen widgets so you see who needs attention **What makes it different:** - No account creation—just Sign in with Apple - Your data stays on your device and iCloud (I never see it) - No sales pipelines or complicated features - Free for up to 15 contacts, $4.99/mo for unlimited Built as a solo developer using SwiftUI and SwiftData. Happy to answer any questions about the app, the tech stack, or indie iOS development! What's your system for staying in touch with professional contacts?

@bulpara Hi Irfan, congrats on the launch. Does this automate actual outreach or just nudge you?

@zolani_matebese   Thanks Zolani! Just nudges you—intentionally.

Reach reminds you when it's time to reach out, but the actual message is yours.

I found that automated outreach (those "just checking in!" emails) feel

robotic and damage relationships more than help them.

The goal is to prompt you at the right time so you can send something

genuine—reference your last conversation, mention something relevant to them,

etc. That personal touch is what actually keeps relationships warm.

Plus, keeping outreach manual means the app doesn't need access to your email

or messages, which is better for privacy.
