Launched this week
Octograf - Speak for 10 seconds. Never forget anyone again. Super smart contact book + personal CRM + professional network Super easy & convenient ways to never forget who you meet: - just speak - just type - just take a photo of a business card - just forward email to autocapture contact + context + reminders Network graph: - See how you're connected to anyone - How many people away are you from Elon Musk or Sam Altman? Your next investor? - Who in my network knows a coder/plumber/lawyer.
Hey PH!
I built Octograf because I kept losing the most valuable part of my network - context.
We meet hundreds of people at conferences, dinners, and intros and forget most of them. Your phone stores a name and number. That's it. No memory of where you met, what you talked about, or why they matter.
**So I built the laziest possible way to never forget anyone:**
- Just speak for 10 seconds after meeting someone — AI extracts the name, company, context, action items, and sets follow-up reminders
- Snap a business card — OCR does the rest
- Forward an email to your personal you@capture.octograf.com address — auto-extracted
- Or just type, if that's your thing. (no more form fields)
**But here's where it gets interesting — it's not just YOUR notes/context.**
Octograf shows you what *others* have publicly said about a person too. So when you open a contact, you see aggregated context from your network - what other people actually said/saved about them. It's an aggregate view of every person in your world. And of course, any user can set it to privately store that context.
**Network intelligence that actually works:**
- Search "who in my network knows a seed-stage investor?" or "iOS developer" or "corporate lawyer" — and it searches your extended network too (your network's network)
- See your network graph — how you're connected to anyone and how many intros away
- Mutual connections surface instantly
- See how many degrees of separation are you from say Elon Musk/Sam Altman/Keanu Reeves etc.
**Reputation & social capital:**
- Every user earns a Network Score and rank (Bronze to Titan) based on how they actually use their network
- A Social Capital score across 7 dimensions — generosity, reliability, authenticity, openness, and more
- Peer-rated Give/Take labels — the network sees who's a genuine connector vs. who just collects contacts
**Privacy is a first-class feature:**
- Three modes: Open World (public to all), Mutual Only (visible to shared connections), or Private (just you). Visibility is reciprocal, so your selected mode also determines who you can discover.
- Per-entry privacy toggles on every voice note and context entry
- You choose exactly what's visible and to whom
**Referrals & exclusive networks:**
- Create or join curated networks (open, invite-only, or application-based)
- Built-in referral workflows with candidate review and approval
- Your referral chain earns points 6 degrees deep
**The viral bit:** When you capture someone's email, they get a "someone saved a note about you" notification. They sign up, claim their profile, and see what people are saying. The network grows organically.
I built this because I kept losing relationships that mattered. Octograf fixes that today, and if the network grows, we’ll unlock a lot more powerful features next.
Would love your feedback — what feature would you actually use first?
P.S. LinkedIn has become a factory of performative posts and inflated endorsements. Octograf takes the opposite path: as the network grows, it aggregates organic, objective context about each person from real interactions. The goal is a truly professional network where people create real value through intros, collaboration, and trust, not vanity metrics. No artificial endorsements. No cringe feed loops. Just authentic relationship intelligence mapped to help people help each other.
Octograf is built for startup founders:
See exactly who in your network can introduce you to any investor, partner, or hire and through whom.
Never lose the context behind a connection. Who introduced you, why you met, what was said.
Top VCs don't publish their emails. Cold LinkedIn DMs get ignored 99% of the time. Octograf shows you the exact chain of people between you and them so you get a warm intro instead of silence.
