Meishio

For consultants and agencies

For consultants and agencies, whose network is the business

New work comes through people: a former client at a new company, a partner's introduction, someone a colleague met years ago. Meishio gives the team one shared record of who you know and who knows them.

The problem

The firm's relationships live in the partners' phones

Ask "who do we know at this company?" and the answer is an email to the whole firm. Client contacts sit in personal phones, LinkedIn connections and old proposal decks.

When a client moves to a new company, that is often the next engagement, but only if someone notices. When a consultant leaves, their side of the relationship leaves with them.

How Meishio helps

Three steps

  1. Bring in everyone's contacts

    Each person scans cards or connects Google Contacts. Meishio merges the duplicates you confirm and suggests missing country codes such as +91, +81 and +65.

  2. Share clients and partners

    Each person chooses which work contacts to share. The team sees who knows each person and how well, in plain words such as "knows well" or "met twice".

  3. Notice when clients move

    Start checks for job changes across the shared list. A client who moved shows the new role with its source, so the person who knows them best can get in touch.

What stays private

  • Each consultant's personal contacts and notes stay private; the team sees only what they share.
  • Other companies never see your data, and it is never sold.
  • Contacts are stored in Singapore. Storage in Japan is available on request for company plans.

Questions

Do we have to move to a new address book?

No. Meishio works with Google Contacts. Fixes you approve go back to Google, each one can be undone, and contacts already in Google are never deleted.

Can we share only some contacts with the team?

Yes. Nothing is shared until a person chooses it. Shared people can be organised into collections, for example by client, practice or region.

Does Meishio have single sign-on?

Not yet. Company single sign-on (SAML) is planned. Today each person signs in with a Google, Microsoft, LinkedIn or Apple account, a one-time code sent to their email, or Face ID (passkey).

Can it handle clients in Japan and India?

Yes. Meishio reads English, Japanese and bilingual cards, up to 12 in one photo, keeps kanji and English names on one person, and suggests +91, +81 and +65 country codes for numbers saved without one.
