Xobni, one of our Top Sales Tools over on Top Sales World, has built a reputation for building products that simplify address book and inbox management with their Outlook and BlackBerry products.  For those of you who are not familiar with Xobni, their platform discovers all the people you’ve ever exchanged emails, calls or SMS messages with, and instantly provides a full view of each contact, complete with their photo, job title, company details, email history as well as updates from LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter.

Today, they have unveiled a new product line called Smartr and the first 2 new products to be released are Smartr™ Inbox for Gmail and Smartr™ Contacts for Android, which are both powered by a new platform that will enable them to build new products much faster.  You can see a quick overview of the platform here

Smartr Inbox for Gmail is a sidebar that sits in your Gmail or Google Apps inbox and works automatically as you read and compose email – showing you everything you need to know about the people and organizations with whom you email, with no effort from you. As you all know, I manage thousands of relationships and the new AutoSuggest feature makes composing emails a breeze.  All I have to do is type in the first letter or two of the person or company I am emailing in the “to” line, and they will appear with a photo, name and title. As if that was not great enough, once I select the person I want, the next few people I often email with that person appear as suggestions to also add.  Love it!  To see Smartr Inbox in action, check out this video: http://vimeo.com/29351194

Smartr Contacts for Android seamlessly handles many times more relationships than any other product has ever attempted (10,000), does it fully automatically, comprehensively, and yet is still the fastest and most simple contact manager you’ll ever use. And while the interface should feel familiar, the application is remarkably powerful, offering more and more smarts with each tap. If you have an Android phone and use Gmail, Google Apps and/or Outlook you should give it a try. Check out this quick video to learn more about Smartr Contacts:  http://vimeo.com/29351119

Lastly, all of this gets better with Xobni Pro, which connects all your Smartr and Xobni contacts across Gmail, Outlook, Android, BlackBerry and iPhone is coming soon.

Getting started is simple.  Just visit xobni.com where you can easily download either product.
