CRMs manage relationships well. They are not built for the quick, messy moment of meeting someone at an event. SpeakSoon captures it and brings the contact to your CRM with context.

Start nowSee how it works

Capture in plain language, no app

The whole loop in one place

Unlimited seats

HubSpot, Pipedrive, Salesforce, Odoo, Attio, Teamleader: your CRM is the right home for event contacts. The problem is getting them there. In 102+ interviews with B2B professionals across 7 sectors, nobody had successfully captured contacts through their CRM mobile app during an event: too many fields, too many taps, no voice notes or photos, no quick way to keep conversation context.

So people fall back on cards in pockets, phone notes, voice memos and entry days later. SpeakSoon is the layer before your CRM. Capture through WhatsApp in whatever way is natural, let SpeakSoon structure and enrich it, then push to your CRM with context and follow-up suggestions attached. It also helps you choose events and shows what each one earned, which a CRM does not do.

Stage by stage

Where each tool covers the loop

A CRM is the system of record. It is not designed for the event moments around it.

Templates and sequences, generic unless someone writes the context in by hand.

Tasks and a drafted follow-up written from what was actually said, in your own style.

Per-event reporting so ROI becomes visible, included in every plan.
