## Key features

- **LinkedIn sync and job-change alerts:** The browser extension syncs your LinkedIn connections in the background and tells you when a contact changes title. Plans cap the number of synced connections.
- **Keep-in-touch reminders:** Dex reminds you to keep in touch with people, notifies you of upcoming birthdays and important dates, and shows where the last conversation left off.
- **Email, calendar and messaging sync:** Connects Gmail, Google Calendar, WhatsApp, Instagram and iMessage so recent interactions and meeting attendees appear on each contact. Outlook needs Professional.
- **Notes and custom fields:** Store how you met, work and education history, important dates, family details and gift ideas on each person, with custom fields for anything else.
- **Dex Research:** Builds a briefing on a contact covering background, current role and what has changed since you last spoke, using monthly credits: 10 on Premium, 20 on Professional.
- **MCP server for AI assistants:** An MCP server lets assistants such as Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini read your contacts, notes and follow-ups from your Dex account.

## Good for

- Individuals who want to stay in touch with a large personal network
- Founders, investors and job seekers who network heavily on LinkedIn
- Students: there is a 50% discount with a school email

## Worth knowing

- No free plan is listed on the pricing page, and the 7-day trial requires a credit card.
