# convo-flow

a conversation tracking tool with statuses and color highlighting — built and shipped. the problem it solves is managing multiple ongoing conversations across different threads and contexts without losing track of where each one is. each conversation gets a status (waiting, replied, needs follow-up, done) and a color that visually communicates state at a glance, so you can see the full landscape of your social/professional threads without having to open each one.

the key design insight is treating conversations like tasks — giving them lifecycle states rather than just treating them as a flat stream of messages. most chat apps optimize for recency, which buries conversations you haven't replied to yet but care about. convo-flow inverts that: priority and status, not recency, drives what you see. highlighting adds another layer — you can mark specific things someone said that you want to remember or act on.
