What Dex Actually Is
Dex is a personal CRM, a single place to keep track of the people in your network so relationships do not quietly go cold. It is not a sales pipeline tool. It is built for the reality that most of us lose touch with people we meant to stay close to, and it nudges you to reach back out before too long has passed.
It pulls your contacts together from the places they already live, LinkedIn, email, and your phone, and gives them a home with notes, history, and reminders attached.

Dex lets you set a cadence for anyone, say every three months for a mentor or monthly for a key client, and then reminds you when it is time. That gentle, systematic prompting is the whole value: it turns "I should really message them" into an actual recurring task, so your network stays warm without you tracking it in your head.
What Else It Does
LinkedIn Integration
A browser extension lets you save people straight from LinkedIn into Dex, so meeting someone new does not mean their details evaporate after the conversation.
Notes and Timeline
Each contact carries your notes and a timeline of past interactions, so before a call you can glance at where you left off instead of scrambling to remember.
Email and Calendar Sync
It connects to your inbox and calendar to log interactions automatically, so the record stays current without manual data entry.
Pricing
Dex is a paid subscription with a trial, aimed at individuals who manage a lot of relationships. New users who sign up through the link on this page get $25 off the first purchase.
Who It Is For
Dex fits founders, investors, salespeople, recruiters, and anyone whose work runs on relationships rather than a formal sales pipeline. If your contacts fit comfortably in your head, you do not need it. If you meet far more people than you can track, this is the tool that keeps those connections from slipping away.
Is Dex a sales CRM?
No. Dex is a personal CRM for maintaining your own network and relationships, not a pipeline tool for managing deals across a sales team.
Does Dex work with LinkedIn?
Yes. A browser extension lets you add people to Dex directly from LinkedIn, capturing their details as you meet them.
Will Dex remind me to reconnect?
Yes. You can set a keep-in-touch cadence for each person and Dex reminds you when it is time to reach out.
