By the Way
Awards EntryRemember the small things people say.
A friend mentions that their favorite ice cream is mango flavour, a colleague says they have an important interview coming up and are nervous about it, or they have finally booked that trip they were so excited about. Those are small and too often quickly forgotten details—but remembering them can mean a lot. 'By the Way' gives those passing details a quiet, private place to live, so they are there when you need them. Press a global keyboard shortcut from anywhere, type a quick note of what you just heard, and file it to the right person in seconds. Each person gets a clear history of the things they have shared, with search, pinned context, and optional AI summaries for quickly catching up. Key features: ◆ Capture a note instantly from anywhere on your Mac ◆ Find people and past conversations in seconds ◆ Pin important details and browse recent context ◆ Link Apple Contacts to distinguish people with the same name ◆ Create optional, source-linked AI summaries that stay grounded in your notes ◆ Keep your people and notes stored locally on your Mac By the Way isn’t a CRM. It won’t tell you whom to contact or what to say. It simply keeps the little things close, so remembering comes naturally.
