Attio

Who haven't I talked to in six months?

Where Attio is the better pick

Said plainly, so the rest of the page is easier to believe.

  • You run a team.

    Attio is made for several people sharing one workspace, with permissions, reporting and forecasting. YouSpot is one account for one person.

  • You want to design your own setup.

    Custom objects, relationship and formula fields, and workflows with branches, schedules and webhooks. YouSpot decides what a person, a company and a note look like, so you don't have to, and so you can't.

  • You send email in volume.

    Attio Pro has built-in sequences, bulk sending and call recording. YouSpot drafts one reconnect email at a time, and you send it.

Switching from Attio

Nothing gets left behind, because nothing gets taken away.

  1. 01

    Connect Gmail and Google Calendar.

    About a minute. Everyone you've ever emailed becomes your list.

  2. 02

    Bring your Attio people over.

    Export a view from Attio as a CSV and upload it once. YouSpot proposes how the columns map and saves nothing until you've reviewed it. People already there are matched by email, and columns it can't place are kept as a note.

  3. 03

    Ask who's gone quiet.

    Names, the last thread with each, and a draft to reconnect when you want one. You send it.

Questions

Is YouSpot an Attio alternative for one person?
If you work alone and most new work comes from people you already know, yes. If you're setting up a sales team, Attio is built for that and YouSpot isn't.
Doesn't Attio have AI too?
Yes, plenty: Ask Attio, custom agents, web research and a connection for Claude and ChatGPT. The difference is who it's aimed at, not whether it's there.
Can I use both?
Yes. YouSpot connects to your Gmail and Google Calendar, not to Attio, so the two don't get in each other's way. Some people keep Attio for team work and YouSpot for their own network.
Does YouSpot work inside Claude or ChatGPT?
Yes. YouSpot's MCP connection works with Claude, ChatGPT (which may need developer mode), Codex, Claude Code and Cursor. Requests from there can use YouSpot credits.
What does it cost?
Start on Free, no credit card needed. Pro is $10 a month, and you can cancel anytime.

What you can count on.

  • Gmail is read-only.

    YouSpot can read your mail. It can't send, change or delete any of it.

  • Your mail stays in Gmail.

    A message is read when you ask a question. It isn't copied into YouSpot.

  • Nothing goes out on its own.

    Drafts wait for you. Nothing reaches another person until you send it.

  • Everything comes with you.

    Export your whole second brain as Markdown files whenever you like.

  • Leaving is one step.

    Disconnect Gmail and YouSpot's access ends right away. Delete your account and your data goes with it.

Your network is already in your inbox.

Connect Gmail, and a minute later you'll see who's gone quiet.
