Two apps, one goal: nurturing your network. Here is the honest comparison — including the areas where UpHabit is ahead.
UpHabit is a deliberately simple personal CRM: reminders, notes and intros, set up in minutes. Nametrace covers the same base — and adds the decisive layer on top: automatic web research on your contacts, searchable network knowledge and AI-supported relationship care.

Fairness is part of a comparison: UpHabit is set up in five minutes, pleasantly minimal, and its Salesforce and Mailchimp integrations connect it to business tools. If all you want is reliable "keep in touch" reminders and nothing more, UpHabit delivers that solidly.
Other tools show you what is in your inboxes and profiles. Nametrace actively researches the open web — roles, companies, projects, topics — and builds a searchable person profile from it.
Your contact data is hosted in Switzerland (AWS Zurich); the app is fully available in German and English.
Bidirectional synchronisation with your Apple, Google or Microsoft address book — your contacts remain yours, on every device.
Nametrace is free to try — including web research credits.
