What is Streak?

Streak adds a CRM to Gmail through a browser extension and mobile apps. Pipelines sit above the inbox, each email thread can be attached to a record with one click, and the fields and stages are as easy to edit as a spreadsheet.

Because it is not tied to a sales-only model, teams use it for partnerships, hiring, fundraising and customer support. It includes email tracking, snippets, scheduled sending and mail merge. Shared pipelines and automation require the paid plans.

Who Streak is for

A good fit for

Founders, freelancers and small Gmail-based teams that want a pipeline without a new application.

Probably not for

Companies on Outlook and larger teams that need forecasting and advanced reporting.

Pros and cons

What we like

  • Pipelines appear directly in the Gmail interface
  • Email tracking, snippets and mail merge included
  • Useful for hiring, fundraising and support as well as sales

What could be better

  • Gmail only
  • Paid plans cost more than many full CRMs

Our verdict

Streak is the least disruptive CRM you can adopt: install the extension and Gmail becomes the CRM. It is excellent for solo operators and small teams and becomes expensive as a full sales platform.
