Automatically create and structure your contacts database based on interactions via notes. This allows users to manage connections and focus on knowledge and collaboration.
How is the contact database built?
1. Linking via notes
When you take a note and link it to other users, these users are automatically added to your personal contacts database. You don’t need to manually write or save them, everything happens automatically.
2. Structuring contacts
Each contact in the database is classified by tags that are related to the topics of your notes. This allows you to easily find the right person by simply filtering contacts by thematic keywords.
3. Creating a social graph
Over time, your unique social graph is built - a network of connections where all the users you interacted with and the topics that connect you are visible.
Why don’t we have private messages?
Conoted deliberately abandons the traditional private messaging feature. This is done to eliminate useless "flooding" and focus on meaningful communication.
Instead, we have the following system:
- "Sending notes instead of messages"
If you want to discuss something, you create a note and add a specific user to it. This note is sent to him, and he can reply to it with his own note. Thus, each communication becomes structured and related, and does not get lost in the conversation flows.
Advantages of this approach
1. Easy search for the right contacts
Thanks to tags and a social graph, you can always quickly find a specialist or colleague on a specific topic with whom you have previously interacted. For example, if you need an accounting expert, you simply filter contacts by the "accounting" tag.
2. Access to Public Notes
You can view your contacts’ public notes to better understand their expertise and decide whether to seek their advice.
3. Collaborate via Notes
This format allows users to focus on knowledge, rather than being distracted by irrelevant conversations.
Use Case
Let’s say you’re studying social media marketing and you’ve made a note analyzing trends. You’ve added a classmate studying the same topic and a professor teaching the course to the note. They receive your note, add their ideas and resources, and then you can expand on it to create a complete resource that’s useful to everyone involved.
Conclusion
Conoted’s contact database is a tool for building an intelligent network. It transforms your connections from a list of names to a working tool that helps you find experts, share knowledge, and collaborate. It is a system that makes knowledge accessible and communication structured and productive.
