Attio suits startups whose relationships do not fit a single sales pipeline. Founders often track investors, design partners, candidates and customers at the same time, and Attio's custom objects let each live in its own structure while sharing contacts synced from email and calendar. The free plan covers up to 3 seats, 3 objects and 50,000 records, and includes automatic enrichment of company and people records. Plus raises the limits to 10 seats and 250,000 records and adds private lists and more email sending. Pro is where call intelligence, sequences, advanced permissions and up to 100 reports appear. For venture-backed startups, the Startup Program offers 80% off the annual Pro plan and credits in the first year and 30% off the second, for workspaces of up to 10 seats. The page we fetched listed prices in euros only, so the USD price is pending. Teams that want a classic sales pipeline out of the box may find Pipedrive faster to adopt.
