folk — Free Trial for Startups

Deal Highlights

folk CRM — The CRM That Actually Gets Used

folk is a modern, lightweight CRM designed for relationship-driven teams who find Salesforce overwhelming and spreadsheets limiting. Used by teams at Alan, Qonto, and Y Combinator-backed startups, folk brings a Notion-like editing experience to contact management with powerful automations underneath.

Why Traditional CRMs Fail Startups

Most startups buy a CRM, spend weeks setting it up, and abandon it within months because the data entry burden is too high. folk flips this by making CRM feel effortless: import contacts from anywhere, enrich them automatically with public data, and manage relationships in a spreadsheet-like interface that your team actually wants to use.

What Makes folk Different

folk's magic is in contact enrichment and pipeline flexibility. Add someone from LinkedIn, Gmail, or a CSV — folk automatically fills in their company, title, social profiles, and email. No manual data entry. Pipelines are fully customizable with drag-and-drop kanban boards for sales, fundraising, partnerships, or hiring.

The Chrome extension lets you add contacts to folk from any website. Email sequences with personalization variables let you run outreach campaigns directly from the CRM. Integrations connect to Slack, Zapier, Make, and your email provider.

folk vs HubSpot

HubSpot is a full marketing and sales suite with hundreds of features. folk is intentionally simple — it does contact management and pipeline tracking extremely well without the bloat. HubSpot is free for basic CRM but gets expensive fast with add-ons. folk is $20/user/month with everything included.

folk vs Attio

Both are modern CRMs for startups. Attio is more data-model focused with custom objects and relationships. folk is more workflow-focused with better email sequences and LinkedIn integration. folk has a lower learning curve; Attio offers more customization for complex sales processes.
