About times8
We are building a new approach to relationship management, combining AI-powered tools with meaningful real-world connections.
Our Story
Times8 was born from a simple but powerful frustration: relationship management tools just are not built for the modern world.
Our CEO, Frederike Falke, experienced this firsthand throughout her career. Working with enterprise clients at LinkedIn and other major companies, she consistently found herself battling outdated, clunky, overwhelming, and old-school CRM systems while trying to maintain her network and relationships.
From Salesforce and Microsoft Dynamics to HubSpot, these tools were designed for different times and different needs. As she transitioned to entrepreneurship and community building, she realized this was not just a corporate problem—it affected solopreneurs, small businesses, community leaders, and individuals trying to manage their professional relationships.
The central question became clear: How do we manage all our connections in one place, trust the data, and eliminate all that manual work? How do we connect relationship data seamlessly?
Looking for answers, she tested hundreds of tools—from Pipedrive to Attio, Apollo to Dex, Monica to Clay. While some were better than others, none provided a complete solution that truly satisfied her needs.
And so, Times8 AI was born. But we quickly realized that relationship building has two equally important sides: the digital world where AI helps manage networks and connections, and the personal world where meaningful connections are actually built. This insight led to the creation of Times8 Club, designed specifically to help New Yorkers better connect and build meaningful relationships in the city, achieving their goals with the right connections by their side.
Our Vision
"To create a world where AI handles all administrative work, empowering humans to focus on what truly matters: strategic thinking, creativity, and meaningful relationships."
We believe that the future of relationship management lies at the intersection of powerful AI and authentic human connection. Our mission is to build tools and communities that enhance both.
With Times8 AI, we are creating a system that not only organizes your contacts but understands the nuanced web of relationships and provides actionable insights to strengthen your network.
Through Times8 Club NYC, we are fostering a community where innovation thrives through meaningful personal connections, proving that in our digital age, in-person relationships remain irreplaceable.
