I co-founded this idea when I realized that over the last couple of years, I've amassed a tremendous network of just simply awesome people.  With that in mind, I also experienced the way we currently maintain our network is very out-dated. Basically, 80% of my contacts go to waste in my inbox. If only you could add everyone to your newsletter, right? Or keep a list of all long term prospects you've spoken to? Last few years, I tried to manually keep track of everyone I emailed with in a spreadsheet: sort people into categories, check the phone-info... and than copy-paste them to my newsletter... It made me feel like destroying my laptop. I hope to help freelancers, organizers, initiators, to get organized without the tedious, manual work So they can promote, share and grow their idea's, business, products more easily!

@colinellis5 Definitely trying this out. I have the exact same problems today. I assume this also scans sent emails (outbounds) direct from my email? Congrats on the launch!
Colin Ellis
@davidsfeng absolutely! Great to hear - add me to your newsletter :-)

@colinellis5 - you're my hero! I'm all about this. Echoing the gmail question, but it's not a deal breaker. #NiceToHave though. Great Work!

@colinellis5 Great stuff. Just tried it. But it shows only 25 contacts in my network. Not that I have huge network but at least 25+ Am I missing something?
Colin Ellis
@jitsalunke Just refresh en after that go to New Contacts!

I've been testing Mila for a while now and it really works! Are there any plans on adding more integrations like Trello or Zapier? Zapier/IFTTT would be awesome!

@timanrebel upvote for Zapier integration

@timanrebel there sure are! We started with a few basics but plan to add more services as soon as we know which ones are the most important to our audience. So better upvote the comment by Patrick then :-)

@mdekuijper @colinellis5 so much call to actions 😂 but checked them all w000t!

Have been trying out this Beta, and love the swiftness with which I can maintain my network. I'm a huge list-addict, so also a big fan of the feature that allows me to create my own lists to order my contacts. Keep up the good work @raoulwissink, @colinellis5 & @Boris!
Boris VvZ
@susanneafman @raoulwissink @colinellis5 thanks, that's great to hear!

number one way we grow our @revue list! Excited to see Mila on product hunt!
Boris VvZ
The Mila team has worked hard on this and we are all excited to see it launch. If you have any questions on how we got started (or any other questions at all) do ask. We are here all day... 😎

It is fast, that I appreciate. I am sure improvements are coming, it would save a tremendous amount of time if we didn't have to sort through newsletters and the like. The "Newsletters and spam are automatically filtered and sent to the trash" feature definitely needs more work. That said I will upgrade my account to paid and persevere.

So who did the design? Don't tell me @Boris went Sketching? Or you @colinellis5 . Looks swell. It's great start for making email inbox pro(fessional) and overall networking smarter. Would love to have more integrations though, Zapier could connect them all I think (I use Reply, Revue and Trello). Also your web engine is great, would love to connect the Wildcard Pocket, where you collect all kinds of people, with your web engine. Nice work boys, always nice to see so many familiar faces in a video ;)
Bertrand Dubaut
@milann Thanks a lot! We do have plans to expand the number of tools you can connect to Mila Zapier is definitely high on the list, so stay tuned!

I like the idea behind this. The value it exposes is pretty clear. And want to try it out. But I just can't give permission to 'View and manage your mail' just for signing up and having a look around. Imho you should ask that permission later on the process?
Bertrand Dubaut
@yvoschaap Thanks for your feedback, it's been quite a journey so far :) Unfortunately our hands are tied with the authorization process if you want Mila to work. If you want to know more about how we handle your information, you can have a look here: https://milahq.com/privacy/
