Real life

You remember their name - but not their news.

You've got someone's contact details, but what matters to the friendship is the conversation you had: the move they're planning, the project they're excited about, or the worry they shared. ConvoMemory helps keep those details close. Covve may be the better fit if scanning business cards, managing professional leads, and keeping up with industry news across a large contact network are your bigger challenges.

Practical details

Your questions answered.

How much effort does it take to save memories?

ConvoMemory is designed around brief notes or voice capture after a conversation. Covve's workload depends on how much contact data you maintain and which of its capture and integration features you use.

What happens to voice notes and personal data?

ConvoMemory voice notes are processed on-device and original audio is discarded. Review Covve's current privacy policy and permissions for contact access, enrichment and connected services before importing personal data.

What can you do for free?

ConvoMemory is free for up to 3 friends, with Premium at $10/month or Annual at $100/year. Covve's current subscription tiers and limits should be confirmed on its official pricing page.

What limitations might matter?

ConvoMemory is not a business-card scanner or contact-enrichment platform. If your main problem starts with collecting and maintaining contact details, Covve is more directly suited to it.

Is Covve only for business contacts?

No, but it is built through a CRM lens. While Covve allows tagging personal contacts alongside professional ones, its core workflows focus on contact organization, lead capture, news alerts, and maintaining outreach cadence across a large network rather than journaling personal moments.

Can ConvoMemory replace my address book?

No. It complements your existing contacts by helping you remember conversation details and reconnect; it isn't intended to replace your phone's address book.

Which is better for remembering what friends tell me?

ConvoMemory. It is tailored specifically for personal memories, casual catching-up, and story timelines. Covve prioritizes structured contact notes, follow-up schedules, business card parsing, and company updates across a broader directory.
