Coleva vs Contacts+ Personal CRM

Coleva is an iPhone personal CRM and relationship journal that organizes short written or dictated entries into memories about people, places, and moments. On-device intelligence extracts people, relationships, dates, and details, with a one-tap undo. A living map shows connections in colour-coded groups, while search can answer plain-English questions from the user's notes. Birthday lead-time reminders and check-in nudges help users follow up. The Free plan is limited to 20 people and includes journal capture, the living map, birthdays, and Ask Coleva. Coleva Plus adds unlimited people, important-date reminders, calendar-synced nudges, AI assist, career and location trails, photo avatars, app lock, and custom map colours. Plus costs $3.99 a month or $39 a year. Notes, diary entries, relationships, and attached photos are stored locally on the iPhone; the maker says it has no server holding user content. Optional Cloud Assist can send limited text or profile information to OpenAI's API when enabled in Settings, and can be turned off. Coleva requires iOS 26.0 or later.

Contacts+ Personal CRM keeps a record for each person, with context and follow-up reminders for maintaining relationships. Records can include notes, tags, relationships, contact details, custom fields, birthdays, and important dates. Contacts sync in both directions with Google, iCloud, and Microsoft/Outlook accounts. Users can set reminders with due dates and snooze them, sync tasks one way to calendars, and receive a daily task digest email. The business-card scanner uses AI to transcribe cards and other images containing contact details into records. Premium and Teams add enrichment, duplicate detection and merging, profile photo matching, and outdated-data cleanup. An MCP integration connects the address book to ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok, with proposed changes awaiting user approval. The free plan includes one account, 1,000 contacts, daily sync, and web, iOS, and Android apps. Premium is $9.99 a month, billed 119.88 USD yearly; Teams is $12.99 a month, billed $155.88 per user yearly. The web app runs in a browser, and the maker says there is no separate native Mac or Windows app.
