A reason to reach out

Remember the person, not just the name.

Tell OldMate what happened after you meet or catch up. It remembers the person, then hands back the thread worth pulling — the promise you made, the question you left hanging, the name you never followed up.

See how it works Coming soon on iPhone

A few people a day, waiting when you open the app. No notifications, no unread count, and nothing to get through.

Familiar details,
quietly kept.

Worth remembering

Alex Chen

Met at the Brisbane product meetup. Alex is moving to West End and recommended the book Range.

Ask how the move to West End is going.

One quick capture

From a messy recollection to a reason to follow up.

Speak naturally, or type when the room is not right. OldMate keeps the result clear, traceable, and worth returning to.

Sorting that out… then it comes back to you as something to say, not a row to file.

How it works

Tell OldMate. It’ll remember.

Low-friction capture when the details are fresh, then a quiet prompt when there is a thread worth pulling.

01
Speak or type

Add a short recording after meeting or catching up. If talking does not suit the moment, type the same natural recollection instead.
02
Details settle

OldMate organises the person, the useful context, the promises you made, and possible next steps into relationship memory that is easy to scan.
03
A thread comes back

Open OldMate and a few people are waiting, each with a specific reason drawn from what you actually said about them. Act on one, or mute it and move on. Then the list ends.

Open it, and there is something to say

The thread you would have let go.

OldMate reads back what you have actually said about your people and puts a few of them in front of you. The coffee you said you would organise. The interview you meant to ask about. The one you have not spoken to since March.

A few a day, then it stops

No unread count, and no queue behind them. Pull to refresh and OldMate draws different names rather than reshuffling the same ones — though anything you promised by a date is left standing.

Something to open with

Not “follow up with Alex”. The move to West End, the book they pushed on you, the thing they were nervous about — the detail that makes a message worth sending.

New names, offered once

The other people in a story are offered as their own page — one decision each, and nobody is added behind your back. Your address book works the same way: a review list, not an import button.

Not in the mood? Mute the prompt, or the person for six months, or for good. Nothing is deleted, and every one of those is reversible from Settings.

Why OldMate

A memory for people, not a database of them.

Names matter. So do the stories, the promises, the small details that make someone familiar — and the people they mention along the way.

Getting to know each other

Place: Moving to West End
Detail: Recommended the book Range
Shared: Brisbane product community

Human context stays intact

Keep the detail that made them memorable.

Talk the way you naturally would. OldMate turns the recollection into a concise relationship memory without reducing a person to sales fields or a generic profile.

The name might slip. The person does not have to.

Ready before the next hello

Find them by name. Pick up where you left off.

A quick look brings back the useful context, a thoughtful next step, and where the memory came from. OldMate suggests the move; you are the one who makes it.

Also in this note

Two other people came up while you were talking about Alex.

Priya

Alex’s flatmate. Illustrator, just back from Japan.

Give them a page
Tom from the meetup

Runs the Brisbane product nights.

Not now

One decision each. Nobody is added until you say so.

The wider circle

The people you have not met yet.

A conversation is rarely about one person. Whoever else gets named rides along on the note until you decide — their own page, someone you already know, or nothing at all.

A friend of a friend is a thread too.
