CRM-E9 Sovereign additive never-lose history (on your hardware)Sovereign edgecloud CRMs cannotEXCEEDS
The sovereign edge: your entire relationship history is additive, never-lost, and on your own hardware (seg_store: append-only, tombstone-not-delete = tamper-evident) -- no cloud CRM guarantees that, and you own the data. Nishi also does relationship-graph intro-path finding, ahead of most CRMs. Present today: rich contact profiles, the relationship graph, interaction timeline, segments, dedup/merge, keep-in-touch health -- and every contact is reachable over email OR postcard/letter/card/gift via nx_send, with calendar + reminders wired in. The roadmap is the unified entity graph (companies + organizations + households + typed relationships + context tags, so one model serves a business, a family, AND a church), the professional CRM pipeline, org/community management (members, groups, giving, attendance), and multi-tenant client workspaces. Competitor rows reflect public product docs (2025-26); Nishi rows are live symbol reads of on-disk source. Generated by nx_swcompare_crm, liar-killed both directions.
