About Shaks

Shaks is a streamlined follow-up CRM designed specifically for busy professionals like consultants, founders, and networkers who want to maintain meaningful connections without the complexity of traditional CRM systems. Its core feature is AI-powered business card scanning, which automatically extracts contact details, saving users time and effort. Users can quickly add context on how they met, and Shaks takes care of reminding them when to follow up and even drafts personalized messages based on the provided context. Unlike bulky CRMs with pipelines and dashboards, Shaks emphasizes simplicity and actionability—focusing solely on contacts, relevant details, and follow-up reminders. This minimalistic approach helps users stay organized and engaged with their network without unnecessary clutter.
