Hilo vs Kithmap

Hilo has no write-up on Specifiction yet; its figures are above.

Kithmap is a personal relationship CRM for keeping track of people and connections. Its graph lets users label links such as family, friends, partners, colleagues and classmates. People can be added by typing or pasting names, then organized with tags or groups and given photos and notes. Users can set a follow-up cadence, see who is overdue, record conversations and receive birthday reminders.

Kithmap describes itself as a single-user tool for personal memory, not a sales CRM. It runs on the web and macOS, and users sign in with Google. Optional connections to Google Contacts, Gmail and Calendar are subject to the access a user authorizes. Kithmap says Gmail thread bodies are not stored, although thread headers and relevant calendar events are cached on its server; for the Mac companion, message bodies remain on the Mac and only derived log entries are sent. Users can export data as JSON or delete an account in Settings. The open beta plan is free. Kithmap says it is US-only and not yet GDPR-compliant for EU residents.
