We meet so many interesting people in our lives - but more often than not, we find it difficult to stay in touch with those people, and our relationships drift apart.

UpHabit is a Personal CRM app that helps people build better relationships. An alternative to social media, the app encourages users to keep in touch with people who matter and develop a stronger network.

While interesting, how does this differ from open source solutions like Monica[0]?

I can't speak for this other app, but one thing that differs us from other Personal CRMs is our emphasis on data privacy. The team here is pretty obsessed with security and data privacy, and we created an app focused on those values.

An app that collects all of one's Contacts by definition has contorted Data privacy standards.

I see where you're coming from, Masonic. Having an open-source product would add a layer of trust, especially if you host it yourself. However, there are people who would not want to go through the hassle of self hosting, and we believe that these people deserve a commitment to privacy too. With UpHabit, we created an inclusive app that while hosted on our own servers, come with our promise that we’ll never sell user data.
