Hi, great idea and tool - if I'm creating a database of my contacts, how will I know when they change jobs for eg ? will it update or be like any database service which can be out of date quickly

thanks! Auto-updating is coming though it will not be part of the free service. The profiles are all linked to live urls so it makes it a lot easier to keep fresh.

@bethebutterfly I see, so if I spend lots of time creating a database using Archively, I need to pay to keep it up to date. ie. if a contact leaves one company and goes to work for another, do I need to pay (you) to have this updated ?

@djsenior13 thank you for asking this because it allows me to reframe the conversation. Archively is not about contacts as much as it is being able to collect information about anyone whether you know them or not. If you are looking for a tool to keep your "contacts" up to date - as in people you have a mutual relationship with - there may be tools better suited to your needs. Our perspective is that we are moving into a time beyond contacts and networks. LinkedIn will alert you when one of your contacts changes jobs. They will not alert you when someone you are just tracking changes jobs. And yes, I believe people are willing to pay for that. If you had invested time creating a database and found value in the product, I would hope you would be willing to pay for advanced features so that the company could thrive. I also think we have put a lot of effort into creating a solid free version and I did that because I don't want cost to be a barrier to entry for best practices. I'm happy to discuss further offline if you like.

Hey @bethebutterfly this looks rad and great timing for our own upcoming launch... I just signed up. Out of interest if you're free forever, what's the plan for the monetisation?

@jonnym1ller the free version is free forever! ;) It is subscription for advanced features and for team collaboration. The paid version is mostly targeted for Recruiters and Sourcers but can be very useful for Founders. Hit me up if i can help perri@archively.com . It has asana-like flexibility with regard to organizing projects.

Looks awesome. Been trying out contactually but it hasn't quite done it for me. Would love to see a chrome extension used here since I never use my bookmarks.

@DavidSpinks yes Extention is on the list but we didn't start w it because many recruiters need IT approval for downloads 😳. What are you looking for that Contactually doesn't do? We are kind of different in that we don't track communication.

@bethebutterfly I like the ease of adding people/automatically pulling in info here. Contactually felt like a lot of work to maintain. We don't have to necessarily track all communications. For us it's more important that it's really easy to filter/browse through our community. Bonus points for being able to message groups of people through the app which I think contactually actually does pretty well.

@DavidSpinks the pro version lets you export individual collections which can be used to send targeted emails. I'd love to do a demo for you and talk through your use case. Email me at perri@archively.com if you'd be down for that.

@FrankDenbow Ah interesting. People do all kinds of weird things. Spreadsheets mostly. Even big Corporates. Yes - I am hearing you loud and clear on the Chrome extension :)

Great tool for making sense of the recruiting mess. Apparently 30 email long chains is not the best way to keep track of candidates.

@doppenhe Yes! And it works beautifully with Angel List. It works with any source, (that is the point!) but it pairs nicely with Angel List if you are recruiting from there. We are happy to help recommend recruitment process flows if anyone needs help.

Founded by @bethebutterfly, Archively is used for cataloging people (automatically pulling in social info like Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.). You might describe it as a hybrid of Rapportive + Pocket.
