Where they pull apart

ConnectVault

Stands out: It covers the whole path from a business card or event badge to a drafted follow-up, with a daily briefing that tells you who to contact next, and a free plan to start.

Watch out: Email and CRM integrations are still on the roadmap, there is no iOS app yet, and prices are in rupees. Meeting recording and follow-up drafts need Pro.

Not the right fit for

  • Recruiting teams that need a shared ATS or recruiting CRM
  • iPhone-only users until the iOS app ships
  • Teams that need it to sync with Salesforce or HubSpot today

HubSpot

Stands out: A real free CRM for two users, plus a hosted MCP server at mcp.hubspot.com and a full public API.

Watch out: Professional and Enterprise carry required one-time onboarding fees ($1,500 and $3,500). The free CRM stops at two users.

Not the right fit for

  • Teams that need more than two users on the free CRM
  • Buyers who want to avoid onboarding fees on upper tiers

Pros and cons

ConnectVault

  • Free plan with 50 card scans a month
  • AI drafts follow-ups and preps meetings
  • Captures from cards, QR, LinkedIn and voice
  • No Gmail, Outlook or CRM sync yet, only on the roadmap

  • Priced in rupees with no fixed USD price shown

HubSpot

  • Free CRM for two users, no card
  • Hosted MCP server plus a full public API
  • Sales, marketing and service on one record
  • Free CRM stops at two users
  • Required onboarding fee on Professional
  • Sequences start on Professional, not Starter
