@DavidSpinks Yep, on your Charlie dashboard (www.charlieapp.com/dashboard ) you can get research on anyone even if they aren't in your calendar!
@afrazin @DavidSpinks very cool. Used it for the first time this morning. Definitely helpful.
Only thing that was odd was the news it pulled in. I looked at my own profile and it pulled in news from like, 5 years ago, about things I'm not longer involved in.
Other than that, everything was relevant and helpful. Thanks for building this.
Oh one other thing is it keeps saying "You've looked at 2/5 pages" or something and it tells me to create an account, but I'm already logged into my account. It's a little confusing, what does that mean?
@afrazin when I try to connect G.Calendar, I get "This webpage is not available." Please let me know when that's working again, or what to do. Great concept, btw.
Been on the platform for approx 60 days , love the #UI .. Best feature is the email reminders of the scheduled appointment with all the actionable data. #StackTheDeck
Only similar service I have found in http://contactive.com/calendar which has an API and native app for Android.. Awesome product.. :)
@afrazin re-alignment of the original idea I saw last year. Just signed up to try it out. One comment: I don't like being asked to recommend something to others w.o. having first having tried it out myself so having the last page of reg ask me to share is not the place to bubble up that form IMHO. Other than that the signup flow all worked well.
I've been a beta tester for awhile and it's a pretty awesome service. The kind you don't need to remember to log in and check. It just connects to my calendar and sends me an email in the morning about what I need to know about meeting attendees to put me ahead of the game before meeting. It's pretty useful.
Looks great and something that I've been doing manually before meetings up until now. This will be great for when I'm disorganized before the meeting!
Awesome product! Why not connecting LinkedIn and also remind some more information about how you're connected to the person you're meeting? Such as when you connected, shared contacts, recent LI posts, etc.
@afrazin - would you mind hitting me? My background is a bit different than most on PH and so I'm curious to see how this works for me...thanks.
@afrazin this is great, especially for new guys like me :)
I checked it out and went through the process, easy, organised and professional. I have a thought in mind though. As I do with most products I check out here, I try to see how I would use it currently & in this case I will be attending the web summit in Dublin this year, So a thought came to me. This would be perfect for conferences with a lot of journalists & investors that are approached by startups. I would love to get connected with you to further the discussion. you can drop me a line on kroushdy67@gmail.com.
@afrazin Frankly I liked refresh.io way more than charlie but alas they are dead now. From where I see, there's a lot of enhancement needed to make it a real good one.
@rohit11 Did you see this? It's from 2015, but thought I'd share.

Wish there was a way to mark hunts as not longer available.
Pros:None
Cons:Doesn't exist anymore.
@jaronrayhinds @manavo I can't even begin to tell you how many people emailed us about an API the past couple days. Interesting. Curious to hear how you'd use it if we built it? Email me first name at Charlieapp.
@afrazin @jaronrayhinds @manavo email is sent! You have so much actionable data that it would only make sense to put some predictive AI in there.. :)
Late to the game, but this is incredible. Instantly one of my favorite work/productivity apps. Most apps don't live up to the hype/pitch/potential, but very impressed.
I have been testing on 2 accounts for the last day and it works well. In fact I wish I could combine both accounts (work, personal). So far, around 9 matches , 1 unknown and 1 missed. Nice intercom.io integration as well.
@knakao Intercom is awesome. Also thanks for checking it out, we'll let you know when we support multiple accounts ASAP.
This looks so cool but I'm incredibly skeptical to let it read and search my email. Wish there were an option to leave that out.
As a refresh.io fan, I keep coming back to find Charlie as option but on each attempt of use I feel a lot missing (still). If I had to compare (with refresh.io before Linkedin killed it) - refresh 8, Charlie 4 :(
@ajt Same here! Reminds me of the Nimble CRM app which shows social data before meetings. Awesome guys!
Been using Charlie since the beginning and it's continually improved. Great basic info to have before meeting with someone. Even more useful is getting all their social & news links in one place so I don't have to search for them manually.
