📎 Research-only: official pricing page captured 2026-09-20 (EUR pricing, 3-seat free plan, 20% annual discount); schema-flexibility and speed praised in 2026 third-party reviews; record caps by tier gate the paid plans; site pricing published in EUR only — USD not shown

Pros

  • Best dimension: Ease of use at 5/5 — a schema you can reshape in minutes; reviewers consistently call it the fastest CRM in the class.
  • The only genuinely usable free tier here besides HubSpot and Zoho: 3 seats, 50,000 records, auto-enrichment included (verified on the official page 2026-09-20).
  • AI-native feature set: AI agents, Ask Attio, call intelligence and MCP server access ship on the paid tiers.
  • 20% discount on annual billing: Plus €31/user/mo and Pro €74/user/mo annual vs €39 / €93 monthly.

Cons

  • Pricing is published in EUR only on the official page — no USD figures shown, which is a real friction point for US-based teams budgeting in dollars.
  • Record caps gate the paid tiers: 250,000 on Plus, 1,000,000 on Pro before Enterprise (custom).
  • Stability scored 4/5: a younger company than the incumbents; AI-agent and enrichment breadth is the trade you make for speed.
