Your assistant remembers you. YouSpot remembers who you know.
Keep ChatGPT or Claude for the thinking and the writing. YouSpot keeps a lasting list of everyone you've emailed and who's gone quiet, and plugs into both.

- YouSpot
- Remembers everyone you've emailed, and who's gone quiet
- ChatGPT or Claude
- Remembers you, and searches your inbox when you ask
ChatGPT and Claude read your Gmail, remember your work and write a better email than most of us. YouSpot keeps the part they don't hold on their own: everyone you've dealt with, when you last spoke, and who hasn't heard from you since. Connect it, and they can see that too.
They search your inbox. YouSpot keeps the list.
Both can answer a question about the people in your mail. Only one keeps the whole list between conversations.
| The decision | YouSpot | ChatGPT or Claude |
|---|---|---|
| What it remembers | Everyone you've emailed, and when you last wrote. | You: your work, your preferences, what came up in your chats. |
| Knowing who's gone quiet | Ask "who haven't I talked to in six months?" and get names, with the last thread. | They search your mail when you ask, or on a schedule you set up. Each run starts from a fresh search. |
| Keeping it current | Updates as you send mail. Nothing to fill in. | Memory updates as you chat and keeps what it judges important. |
| Getting it out | Export your whole second brain as Markdown files whenever you like. | Memory is a summary you can review and edit, not a list of people you can export. |
| Where you use it | In YouSpot, or inside Claude and ChatGPT once you connect it. | In their own apps, for everything else you do. Connect YouSpot and they know your network. |

Where ChatGPT and Claude are the better pick
Said plainly, so the rest of the page is easier to believe.
Thinking and writing.
For reasoning, research, writing, code and files, a general assistant is the better tool, and it keeps improving. YouSpot's chat is for the people you know, not for everything.
You already have it open all day.
It reads Gmail and Google Calendar, remembers you, drafts and sends mail, and runs tasks on a schedule. There's no new app to learn.
One question about this week.
Connectors, deep research and agents for longer tasks. If you want one answer about this week's inbox, an assistant with Gmail connected handles it well.
Switching from ChatGPT and Claude
Nothing gets left behind, because nothing gets taken away.
- 01
Connect Gmail and Google Calendar.
Read-only. Everyone you've written to becomes your list, and your mail stays in Gmail.
- 02
Connect YouSpot to Claude or ChatGPT.
Add it as a custom connector and sign in. ChatGPT may need developer mode turned on first. Your assistant stays exactly as it is.
- 03
Ask who's gone quiet, wherever you are.
In YouSpot or in your assistant: names, the last thread with each, and a draft to reconnect when you want one. You send it.
Questions
- Is YouSpot an alternative to using ChatGPT or Claude as a CRM?
- For the part they don't hold on their own, yes: a lasting list of everyone you've dealt with, and who's gone quiet. Keep the assistant for everything else, and connect the two.
- Can't ChatGPT or Claude already read my Gmail?
- Yes, and so can Gemini and Copilot once you connect them. They search your mail when you ask. YouSpot keeps the list of everyone in it, so "who have I lost touch with?" already has an answer.
- ChatGPT and Claude have memory now. Isn't that the same thing?
- Their memory is mostly about you: your work, your preferences, what you've told them. YouSpot remembers the people: every client, referrer and past colleague you've emailed, and the last time you spoke.
- Can I use both?
- Yes. YouSpot connects to Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Claude Code and Cursor. Add it as a custom connector, sign in, and your assistant can see your network while you work there. ChatGPT may need developer mode turned on first.
- What does it cost?
- Start on Free, no credit card needed. Pro is $10 a month, and you can cancel anytime. It sits next to your assistant, not in place of it, and requests from inside Claude or ChatGPT can use your YouSpot credits.
