Where they pull apart

Attio

Stands out: A hosted MCP server and REST API are available on every plan, including Free, with a 14-day Pro trial.

Watch out: Plus caps at 10 seats. Call Intelligence, sequences, and AI agents sit on Pro. Extra workspace credits are add-on packs.

Not the right fit for

Teams of 11+ that will not pay for Pro
Recruiters who need a full ATS, not a CRM

Pipedrive

Stands out: Lite already includes the visual pipeline, AI report building, meeting briefs, and access to 500-plus app integrations.

Watch out: Listed prices assume annual billing; monthly costs more. Email sync starts on Growth, and contact enrichment is on Ultimate.

Not the right fit for

Recruiting teams that want an ATS as the system of record
