Product demonstration: you ask WhoBe about a robotics founder you met months ago. WhoBe identifies Alex Chen, shows the conversation context, suggests a follow-up, and surfaces a possible introduction through Sarah Lin.

The problem

You've Met More People Than You Remember.

We meet people at conferences, through friends, at work, and in everyday life. We exchange contact information.

Then life gets busy.

Months later, we remember a conversation but forget the person's name. Or we need an investor, expert, cofounder, or recommendation without realizing that someone in our existing network might be able to help.

The problem isn't always a lack of connections. It's that meaningful connections become difficult to remember and activate.

Shaped by conversations with 27 founders, VCs, and international students about where networking tools break.

  • "I remember the conversation, but not their name."

    The idea stuck with you. The name did not.

  • "I should have followed up months ago."

    A warm conversation slowly went cold.

  • "Someone I know might know the right person."

    The introduction you need may be one relationship away.

Three core capabilities

Remember. Reconnect. Activate.

WhoBe is a relationship intelligence and activation platform. It is more than an address book or a CRM, and it is not another social network. It helps you unlock the value of relationships you already have.

Discover & Capture

Remember the People You Meet.

Capture new connections, meaningful conversations, and important context so valuable relationships don't disappear after an event.

  • Save a new connection in seconds
  • Record where and when you met
  • Capture the topics you discussed
  • Preserve the context that makes the relationship meaningful
Recall & Nurture

Remember the Conversation, Even When You Forget the Name.

Find people using natural language and the context you remember. WhoBe helps you reconnect and maintain meaningful relationships.

  • Ask in plain language, the way you would ask a friend
  • No need to remember the exact event name
  • Draft a follow-up that references what you actually discussed

WhoBe identifies the relevant person and event from the relationship context you already captured.

I met a robotics founder at some Physical AI event a few months ago. We talked about embodied AI, but I can't remember his name.
I found a match: Alex Chen! You met at the AI & Robotics Conference and discussed embodied AI and a potential collaboration.

Discover Opportunities Through People You Trust.

The right introduction may already be one relationship away. WhoBe helps you identify potential introduction paths through your existing connections.

  • Ask who might know the kind of person you need
  • See a possible path through someone you already trust
  • Ask for an introduction with a note you control

WhoBe never exposes private contact lists or sends introductions on its own. Relationship owners decide whether they participate and what they share.

Why we built this

WhoBe started with a familiar feeling. After a conference, a community dinner, or a long hallway conversation, we would get home with a pocket full of new names and a head full of ideas. A few weeks later, the ideas were still there. The names were gone.

Our team sits at the intersection of engineering and community building. We have organized meetups, hosted alumni gatherings, and shipped software for years. Again and again we watched people with genuinely rich networks search outside them, because remembering who could help had become harder than meeting someone new.

So we built the relationship agent we wanted for ourselves: one that remembers the conversation, brings the right person back at the right time, and treats the trust between people as something to protect, not something to mine.
