Built out of sheer frustration.
I'm a CFO and our Xero organisation held over 50,000 contacts, many of them private individuals from old webshop orders. Not only did this make Xero incredibly slow, but holding onto that historical PII data was a direct violation of privacy laws.
When I tried to clean it up, I hit a brick wall. The database was too large to even export to CSV. Worse, Xero caps CSV contact updates at 998 rows per file. We were facing 50+ manual, error-prone spreadsheet uploads just to archive and anonymize our old data.
I needed a more efficient solution, so I teamed up with my husband who is an Enterprise Architect for a local university. We didn't want another flimsy, vibe-coded app that would break under pressure. We built a secure, enterprise-grade architecture designed to process massive datasets fast and flawlessly. We built Bulk Contact Manager to solve our own database nightmare, and now we are sharing it with the Xero community.
