I'm losing track of friends across 7 messaging apps, locations, and time-zones. I've moved across 9 countries, 14 cities, and have been finding it difficult to remember to check in (ADHD+founder life).

Facebook pokes are dead so -- BetterFriend! At work, we've got a CRM for clients, to remind ourselves to message people.

Friends, best friends, and family have different cadences that this will generate tickets to remind you to message them. Feel free to use BetterFriend as a free tool. I'll continue to host this just for myself regardless.
