Personal CRM comparison
Resyl vs Clay
Clay is now rebranded as Mesh (me.sh).
Clay — now rebranded as Mesh — automatically builds your network from your connected accounts and enriches profiles from public web data. Resyl does the opposite: nothing is scraped, and you capture only what you choose — by voice, photo, or text. If you want intentional, private memory of real conversations instead of passive profile aggregation, Resyl is the better fit. (Note: this is clay.earth / Mesh, not clay.com, the separate B2B sales tool.)

Everything Resyl does
One app for capturing, recalling, and sharing the memory of your life — by voice, photo, or text.
Speak it or type it
Talk like you're telling a friend, or type a line. Even a long voice note or a whole meeting gets transcribed automatically and turned into a clean, structured memory.
Snap a photo, keep the text
Photograph a whiteboard, business card, document, or screenshot — Resyl reads the text and entities out of the image and files it as a memory you can search later.
Ask, don't browse
"What happened with Priya?" returns a synthesized answer with the people, dates, and details intact — not a list of links you have to dig through.
Your Brain, mapped
Every person, topic, and memory is linked in a living relationship graph — your whole network, visualized and explorable.
Share to friends & Communities
Send a single memory to a friend, or create a private Community where members share only what's relevant. Nothing is public by default.
Works in your language
Capture and recall in English, Hindi, or Hinglish — speak or type the way you actually talk, and the AI understands it.
Private by design
Sensitive data is encrypted with AES-256-GCM at rest, personal details are masked before any AI processing, and when you delete something it's permanently gone.
Free, mobile-first, offline-ready
Live free on Android, captures in under 10 seconds, works offline, and syncs the moment you're back online.
What Clay does
Clay (Mesh) connects your email, calendar, LinkedIn, and X, then automatically pulls in everyone you interact with and enriches their profiles from the web. It scores relationship strength and surfaces news about your connections so you never maintain a spreadsheet by hand.
Where Clay shines
Effortless auto-enrichment. It builds your network from your connected accounts and keeps profiles fresh from public web data — genuinely useful for investors, recruiters, and connectors who work a large existing network.
Where Clay falls short
- Passive aggregation, not intentional capture — it logs who you know, not what you talked about
- Enrichment pulls data about people from the open web — a privacy trade-off Resyl deliberately avoids
- No voice or photo capture of your own moments; weak on "what did we actually discuss"
- Rebrand churn (clay.earth → Mesh) and a credit/paid wall for full features
- Desktop-leaning — not built for fast, in-the-moment mobile capture
Why people choose Resyl
- You decide what's saved — capture by voice, photo, or text instead of auto-scraping your accounts
- Private by design: Resyl never enriches people from the open web; sensitive data is AES-256-GCM encrypted and AI only ever sees masked data
- Ask what happened and get the substance — a synthesized answer, not a refreshed profile card
- Share to a friend or a private Community, and explore your network as a Brain graph
- Mobile-first 10-second capture that works in English, Hindi, and Hinglish
Resyl vs Clay — FAQ
Is Clay the same as Mesh?
Yes. The personal CRM that lived at clay.earth rebranded to Mesh (me.sh) in 2024. The clay.earth domain still redirects. It is not the same as clay.com, which is a separate B2B sales-enrichment platform.
How is Resyl more private than Clay/Mesh?
Clay enriches your contacts by pulling data about them from the public web. Resyl never does this — it only stores what you intentionally capture, encrypts sensitive data with AES-256-GCM, and masks personal details before any AI processing.
Does Resyl auto-import my network like Clay?
No, and that's deliberate. Clay auto-aggregates everyone from your connected accounts. Resyl is built around intentional capture — voice, photo, or text — so your memory holds what matters to you instead of a scraped contact dump.
