## The panel's verdict

Streak is a CRM from Rewardly, Inc. that runs inside Gmail as a browser extension, and the bench scored it highest where that shows: integrations at 5–7 and automation at 5–6. The native automation builder pairs ten triggers, including inbound webhooks and schedules, with sixteen actions and four AI steps whose outputs feed later steps. Contact management scored 4–5, with linked contacts and organizations, typed custom columns, and a self-serve importer from Google Sheets, CSV and Excel that updates existing boxes by name. The weak points are structural. Sovereignty scored 1–2: the captured pages give no public information on data residency, a data processing agreement, or a subprocessor list. Sales pipeline scored a flat 3 — seven built-in visualizations, with no public information on forecasting, quota tracking, or required fields per stage. In passing on pricing, a free plan and Pro at $49/user/month are public, while the Pro+ and Enterprise plans carrying automations and scheduled exports have no public prices. Persona-weighted verdicts ranged from 3.7 to 5.5.

**Speaks for it:**
- Pipelines live inside Gmail as a browser extension, with sent and received emails automatically logging to the relevant box.
- The native automation builder offers ten triggers and sixteen actions, including webhooks in both directions, with AI steps that chain and feed later steps.
- Self-serve import from Google Sheets, CSV and Excel updates existing boxes by name and auto-creates missing stages and dropdowns.
- The API is documented, routinely updated, and reachable by key, alongside native Slack, Zapier, Calendly, Typeform and phone-dialer connections.
- Contact and organization pages carry the whole team's email interaction timeline, with automatic and manual linking between them.

**Held against it:**
- Sovereignty scored 1–2, with no public information on data residency, a data processing agreement, or a subprocessor list.
- Sales pipeline scored a flat 3, with no public information on forecasting, quota tracking, win/loss capture, or required fields per stage.
- Automations and scheduled exports sit on the Pro+ and Enterprise plans only, and every AI run draws credits from a shared team pool with no published rate.
- Export destination is Google Sheets, we found no public information on exporting files or attachments, and moving data between accounts is a support request.
- Contact auto-enrichment from publicly-available data has no consent fields or lawful-basis handling evidenced.

**Best for:**
- You run a Gmail-heavy small team or sell solo and want pipeline visibility without leaving the inbox.
- You want multi-step automation triggered by mail events, webhooks, or schedules and are ready to buy a Pro+ or Enterprise plan.
- You are importing pipeline data from spreadsheets and want updates to existing records rather than duplicates.
- Your stack connects through the API, webhooks, or Zapier and you value a documented, routinely updated interface.

**Avoid if:**
- Your compliance review cannot close without published data residency, a data processing agreement, or a subprocessor list.
- Your revenue reviews need forecasting, quota attainment, or win/loss capture beyond built-in charts.
- You need open-format or full-fidelity export, or self-serve migration of data between accounts.
- Your team works outside Gmail and needs a CRM that meets them in another workspace.

## Scores by judge and criterion

### The judges

- **The Solo Seller** (v1.2): Runs their pipeline between customer calls and pays with their own card. Optimizes for a CRM that is set up in an afternoon, priced honestly at 1-5 seats, and never asks them to configure an object model. Rejects seat minimums and features held hostage in enterprise tiers.
- **The Data Protection Officer** (v1.0): Knows a CRM is a database of other people's personal data before it is a sales tool. Optimizes for GDPR posture: EU hosting, DPA, subprocessor hygiene, consent fields, retention and deletion that actually delete. Rejects US-default hosting and enrichment features that scrape contacts from the open web.
- **The Sales Ops Lead** (v1.0): Owns the forecast a 40-seat team lives by. Optimizes for pipeline discipline: stage hygiene, required fields, routing, quota and forecast reporting the CFO will accept. Rejects freeform pipelines that cannot enforce a process and reporting that stops at a dashboard screenshot.
- **The RevOps Integrator** (v1.0): Treats the CRM as one system in a revenue stack. Optimizes for two-way email and calendar sync, a real API with webhooks, and native connections to the tools money already flows through. Rejects closed ecosystems and integrations that are one-way imports in disguise.
- **The Migrator** (v1.1): Has moved a company off a CRM twice and remembers every scar. Optimizes for clean import with dedupe, full export of every object including notes and activity history, and contract terms that permit leaving. Rejects export behind support tickets and per-record API metering that makes exit a project.
- **The Skeptic** (v1.2): Assumes the pricing page is the nicest thing the vendor will ever say. Hunts per-seat maths that explode at renewal, "unlimited" with footnotes, AI features priced by credits, dead changelogs and acquisition rumours. Exists to keep the rest of the bench honest.
