Show HN: Radius.today – Local-first personal CRM

https://radius.today/

Xiaoyao6•2mo ago
Hello HN, I’m the maker of Radius.today. I built this because I was frustrated with existing CRMs. They are either too heavy (enterprise SaaS), require a monthly subscription for simple features, or force me to store my friends' and colleagues' private data on a third-party server. Radius is a "Local-first" Personal CRM that runs entirely in your browser. The Promise: 0% Cloud Storage: I don't have a database. Your data lives in your browser's IndexedDB. No Sign-up Required: You can start using it instantly. No "Create Account" friction. Data Sovereignty: You can export your data to JSON/CSV at any time. If radius.today disappears tomorrow, you still have your data. The Tech Stack: Frontend: Built with [React / Vue / Svelte / Next.js?]. Storage: Uses [Dexie.js / RxDB / PouchDB / SQLite WASM?] wrapper around IndexedDB for persistence. Hosting: Static files hosted on [Vercel / Netlify / Cloudflare Pages?]. Offline: Fully PWA compliant (works offline once loaded). Current Status (MVP): It is currently a lightweight MVP. My goal was to minimize friction: open the URL and start logging interactions immediately. Why I need your help: Since I don't track user data, I have no idea how people are actually using it (or if it breaks). I'd love for you to try the "Demo Mode" (no login needed) and roast my code/UX. Is the "browser-only" approach a dealbreaker for you without multi-device sync, or is the privacy trade-off worth it? Happy to answer any questions about the implementation!

Hey, you might want to experiment with local sync approach by allowing devices to sync when are on the same network. I have never done this so there might be hurdles, but this can bypass the issues with cloud sync while maintaining the ability to sync across devices
Xiaoyao6•2mo ago
got it, thank you
Xiaoyao6•2mo ago
"I love this idea. It fits the privacy philosophy perfectly—keeping data within the local network. Since this is an MVP, I'm sticking to 'Export/Import' for now to keep things simple and robust. But eventually, solving the multi-device puzzle via local P2P sync (instead of cloud) is definitely the dream. Have you seen any web-based apps that handle this well? I'd love to check them out."
