Dharmesh Shah announces YouSpot, a personal CRM tool for relationships
In a published post on LinkedIn, Dharmesh Shah announced the introduction of YouSpot, a new personal CRM tool designed to manage professional relationships through an integrated “second brain.” Shah detailed how the software addresses the administrative friction of organizing last-minute founder dinners by aggregating data from various communication channels.
Solving the Logistics of Founder Dinners
For more than 30 years, Shah has hosted informal dinners for founders while traveling to different cities, a process he described as complicated by the challenge of deciding who to invite. To solve the administrative hurdles of managing guest lists across personal networks, Shah built YouSpot as part of the HubSpot Next initiative.
The software functions by pulling data from LinkedIn connections, email accounts, calendar schedules, and messaging platforms into a persistent, searchable database.
A Browseable Database With User Data Ownership
Unlike standard chat super-apps that process data within closed systems, YouSpot provides users with a browseable and searchable second brain that maintains data ownership.
Shah stated that the tool allows him to run prompts against his connected graph of contacts, such as querying the system to compile guest lists for upcoming events based on past invitations and recent email exchanges.
Frontier Models and Model Context Protocol Support
The software operates alongside frontier models like GPT-6 and Claude Fable, enabling users to interact directly with their historical professional data.
The platform integrates data sources including X, formerly Twitter, Gmail, and Granola notes, allowing the CRM to compile interactions over time. According to Shah’s LinkedIn publication, YouSpot offers users compounding value by retaining persistent records of professional connections that can be connected to external systems using the Model Context Protocol (MCP).
YouSpot Costs $8 per Month for Relationship Management
YouSpot is currently available to users through a promotional link shared by the developer at a subscription price of $8 per month, with the option to cancel at any time.
Shah noted that the tool is designed to support the fundamental objective of relationship management by organizing fragmented communication histories into a centralized, queryable interface.
