We make financial professionals better—not just faster.

Bloks was founded on a simple premise: that high-trust, high-context relationships deserve better tools.

From Scheduling Links to Relationship Intelligence

A two-decade journey from productivity pioneers to redefining how professionals manage trust.

We’ve been building beloved productivity apps for over 20 years—starting with Tungle, the startup that invented the scheduling link and earned 500,000 users before being acquired by BlackBerry. There, we led the creation of BlackBerry’s legendary productivity suite. Next came Foko, a mobile-first task platform adopted by global giants like Nike and Louis Vuitton—praised for being so intuitive, teams actually wanted to use it.

Across every venture, one truth stood out: productivity isn’t about doing more—it’s about building stronger relationships. That insight shaped our next chapter: Bloks.

Bloks is 360° Relationship Intelligence. Built for financial professionals, it quietly gathers context from your calls, emails, and trusted sources, and turns it into seamless CRM-ready insight—so you’re always one step ahead.

We’ve gone from automating tasks to empowering trust. And we’re just getting started.
