About Pipedrive

Pipedrive is a sales CRM built around the visual deal pipeline. Reps move deals through stages, schedule the next activity on every deal, and see what needs attention today instead of digging through contact records.

It is aimed at small and mid-sized sales teams that want a CRM they will actually keep updated. Core features include lead and deal management, email sync and tracking, workflow automation and sequences, forecasting, reporting dashboards, a mobile app, and a marketplace of 500+ integrations.

Newer additions include AI-assisted reporting and email tools, plus Nova, a meeting-intelligence feature that prepares pre-call briefs, transcribes calls and updates the CRM afterwards. Pipedrive also publishes an MCP server for connecting AI agents to CRM data.

Compared with heavier suites, Pipedrive trades breadth for speed of setup: pricing is per seat on four tiers (Lite, Growth, Premium, Ultimate), and there is a 14-day free trial with no credit card required.
