For the people
behind the names.
A Haiku product
Contacts tell us how to reach someone. Not what matters to them.
Starlings is a personal relationship manager for the people already in your life. It keeps profiles, dates, interactions, and everyday details in one private place.
The brief was to make that context useful without turning friendship into a set of tasks. A reminder should feel like an opening to connect, never an obligation.
Make the next thoughtful moment easier to notice.
The home view draws together upcoming dates, people to reach out to, and things to follow up on. It offers a useful starting point without asking you to manage a relationship like a pipeline.
01 / The everyday starting point
Built around people,
not a database.
Everything leads back to a person. Notes, quick facts, interactions, dates, tasks, and shared moments stay connected to the relationship they belong to.
Personal should
stay personal.
No account is required. Information lives on the device, with optional iCloud sync and archive export. Privacy is part of how the product works, not a setting to discover later.
From a simple question to a useful app.
Starlings is live on iOS. It brings together rich profiles, interaction logs, reminders, a personal journal, tasks, and loan tracking. The free version supports five contacts; a one-time Pro purchase removes that limit.
The idea still guides what comes next: help people keep, find, and act on the details that make a relationship theirs.
