By Folk SAS (France) · folk.app
French, unusually sleek AI CRM that captures contacts directly from LinkedIn and Gmail and enriches them automatically. Don't count on EU storage though: despite the French seat, all data ends up on AWS in Virginia according to the company's own documentation, and no European option is stated.
Best for: Small sales teams and consultants who live in LinkedIn and want a CRM that feels like a spreadsheet, not a system.
