5.0CRM
folk turns its CRM into a data source agents can write to in bulk and enrich on their own.
◆ Current state
folk is a CRM for small sales teams that has been opening its data to AI agents. October added bulk create and update through folk MCP, contact enrichment through the API and MCP, call recording in beta and a French interface. A phone number finder arrived on Oct 1. The summer brought the MCP server, insights over interaction history and a mobile capture app.
◆ Where it's heading
folk is building the pieces for agents to run prospecting inside the CRM: find contacts, enrich them, update them in bulk and log calls. Localization suggests a push into European markets.
◆ Prediction
More agent-facing write actions and enrichment sources are likely next; the entries do not show how enrichment will be priced.
IntegCRM
5.0CRM
IntegCRM adds a spam check before campaigns go out, its second email-builder release in a week
◆ Current state
IntegCRM ships roughly one feature a month across invoices, bookings, forms and, lately, marketing email. Its newest release adds a pre-send spam check to the email builder, days after mobile view controls. The posts are headline-only with category tags, so the depth of each change is not visible.
◆ Where it's heading
The recent run of releases points at email marketing as the active build area, after a year spent on invoicing and bookings. Back-to-back email-builder releases suggest IntegCRM wants campaigns to work inside the CRM without a separate email tool.
◆ Prediction
More email-builder work looks likely, plausibly deliverability or campaign reporting, though the headline-only changelog makes the specifics hard to call.
