Mesh, Automattic’s CRM for everyone, comes to Android

Mesh, an AI-powered contacts app and relationship manager from Automattic is now an Android app.

Get smart on it

Mesh is a relationship manager and personal CRM acquired by Automattic that allows users to track and manage their personal and professional contacts, add notes, and receive reminders to reach out. The app is now available on Android with customized features including split-screen and pop-up views, home screen widgets, and real-time device sync. Automattic plans to integrate Mesh more closely with its messaging app Beeper and add AI features to help users manage relationships, though personal information in Mesh is not shared for advertising purposes and the service is supported by subscriptions. The majority of current Mesh users are using it for business purposes, though the company designs features to work for both business and consumer applications.
