Your network, organized by your goals
A networking CRM for founders helps you stay on top of the relationships that matter — advisors, peers, potential customers — without a generic sales tool. WorkToDo organizes contacts under the goals they relate to, captures who you met and what you promised by voice, and gives you a daily reminder of who to reconnect with.

Why founder networking breaks in a contacts app
Your phone's contacts app is an alphabetical list of names with no memory of why anyone is in it. You meet someone great at a dinner, promise an intro, and three weeks later you can't recall their company, let alone what you said you'd do. The relationships that move a company forward — an advisor, a future hire, a design partner — get the same treatment as a plumber you called once.
Networking doesn't break because you don't care. It breaks because nothing connects a person to the reason they matter, or reminds you when it's time to reconnect.
Organize by goal, not alphabet
WorkToDo attaches every contact to a goal — the reason they're in your world. An angel sits under your raise; a strong engineer you met sits under hiring; a potential first customer sits under a design-partner goal. Instead of one flat list, your network is grouped by what you're trying to achieve, so the right people surface when you're working that goal.
Capture who you met by voice
The best time to log a new connection is the walk out of the event — and typing it then never happens. Talk to WorkToDo instead: “Met Dana, runs design at a fintech, wants to be a design partner, I said I'd send access next week.” The AI files the contact, the promise, and the deadline under the right goal, so a good conversation actually turns into a relationship.
A daily reminder of who to reconnect with
Relationships go stale quietly. WorkToDo gives the people who matter a dated next touchpoint and surfaces a daily queue of who's due — plus a morning digest — so you reconnect on purpose instead of remembering them a month too late.
Share notes and keep them private
Need to hand a co-founder context before an intro? Share a note read-only with anyone you choose. And because WorkToDo never records your screen and keeps calendar/recording opt-in, the rest of your network stays private to you.
Frequently asked questions
- What is a networking CRM?
- A networking CRM helps you maintain relationships intentionally — who you know, why they matter, and when to reconnect. WorkToDo organizes your network by the goals each person relates to.
- How do founders keep track of their network?
- Attach every contact to a reason (a goal) and a next touchpoint. WorkToDo captures who you met by voice and sets up follow-ups so relationships don't go stale.
- How is this different from a “stay in touch” app like Dex?
- Stay-in-touch tools focus on periodic reminders. WorkToDo is goal-and-outcome driven — your contacts are organized around what you're actually trying to achieve.
- Can I share notes about a contact?
- Yes — notes can be shared read-only with anyone you choose, which is useful for intros and keeping a co-founder in the loop.
- Is it free?
- Yes — free during early access. A $50 lifetime Day 0 Founders plan (first 50 people) is the only paid option.
