✓ Nothing else urgent today — go enjoy your morning.

Warm leads rarely disappear at once.

They fade quietly.

A good call becomes a note somewhere.
A proposal waits in your head.
A LinkedIn conversation gets buried.
A month later, the timing is gone.

Marabot keeps those relationships visible before they go cold.

Not another CRM

Most CRMs are built for sales teams.

Freelancers do not need manager dashboards, sales quotas, or enterprise pipeline rituals. They need to remember who they spoke to, why it mattered, and what should happen next.

No sales theater

No bloated dashboards, quota screens, or team surveillance.

No cloud-first client database

Your business relationships should not live by default in someone else's CRM.

No spreadsheet decay

Marabot keeps context, timing, and next actions together.

Capture

Capture anything.

Paste an email signature, a LinkedIn snippet, a meeting note, a referral intro, or a random thought. Marabot turns scraps into relationship memory.

Private intelligence

On-device by default. Frontier when you ask.

Marabot reads your notes with local AI on your Mac, so most relationship work finishes without anything leaving your device. When a task needs more power, you can connect a frontier model like Claude or ChatGPT — off by default, and Marabot asks before anything is shared.

Prefer no AI at all? Marabot still works as a private companion with manual capture.

Relationship memory

Remember context.

Every relationship gets a compact dossier: who they are, why they matter, what happened recently, how warm the relationship is, and what to do next.

Daily pulse

Open it in the morning. Know who matters today.

Marabot is not a dashboard to maintain. It is a daily relationship pulse: warm leads cooling, proposals waiting, and people ready for a nudge.

And so much more

Small touches, quietly useful.

Menu-bar radar

Humanized warmth

Hot, Warm, Watch, Quiet — never a cold raw number.

One local file

Your whole network in one private file you can back up and own.

Paste from anywhere

Mail, LinkedIn, Notes, or a passing thought at midnight.

Keyboard-first

Capture and find people without reaching for the mouse.

Calm by default

No red badges competing for your attention.

Privacy

Private by design. Local by default.

Your client list is not marketing data. Your notes, leads, proposals, and relationship context belong to you. Marabot keeps your relationships in a private file on your own Mac. No account. No sync server. No telemetry.

A private file

Kept on your own Mac, not in the cloud.

No account

No sign-in required to use the app.

No telemetry

Marabot does not track how you manage relationships.

Local AI path

On-device extraction when a local model is configured.

Beta note: local AI capabilities may depend on model availability and configuration.

A note to friends

I built Marabot because I needed it.

I run a consulting practice, and every CRM I tried wanted my client list uploaded to its cloud — and the cheap ones often made me wonder what would happen to my data if they disappeared. But my relationships are not marketing data. They are context, trust, timing, and memory.

I wanted a tool that lived on my Mac, remembered my people, and helped me follow up without turning my work into a sales machine.

That became Marabot — and I use it every morning before anyone else does.

A quiet bird with a good memory.

Mara is the small companion inside Marabot — patient, watchful, and quietly certain she knows who you should call back. She holds your notes, tilts her head when a relationship is going cold, and says nothing at all when there's nothing to say.

"I'll remember the names. You go do the work."

— Mara
