About Folk

folk rebrands itself as the CRM for the agent era, after a month of MCP writes.

folk is a lightweight relationship CRM that widened its surface through the summer with a mobile app, Tasks, an Interactions API, an MCP connector and EU data residency. October added phone-number lookup, calling with recording, bulk MCP writes, a French interface and enrichment in the API and MCP. On November 6 it published a positioning page, 'The CRM for the agent era', with no new feature detail.
