What is Streak?

Streak is a Gmail-integrated CRM platform that operates directly within Gmail as a Chrome extension, eliminating the need for a separate application. It provides pipeline and deal tracking, automated email logging, contact management, task management, email tracking (opens and link clicks), mail merge, and AI-powered tools through integration with Claude and ChatGPT.

  • − Gmail interface becomes cluttered and hard to navigate with heavy data loads
  • − Chrome extension can slow Gmail performance with large pipelines or inboxes
  • − Mobile app noticeably weaker than desktop experience
  • − Email tracking accuracy can be inflated by forwarded emails or signature reuse; documented issue in Streak's own caveats

  • − No multi-channel support (email-only); no LinkedIn, WhatsApp, phone, or SMS sequencing
  • − Export excludes email threads, files, and comments; data portability limited

Frequently asked questions

Does Streak work with Outlook?

No. Streak is Gmail-only and requires Chrome browser. Outlook users cannot use it.

Is there a free plan?

Yes, perpetual free access to email power tools: unlimited email tracking, snippets, 50 mail merges/day, and thread splitter. No CRM features (pipelines, records) in free tier.

Can I track email opens?

Yes. Email and link tracking is included on all plans, including free. Tracking uses pixels and has documented limitations: counts can inflate if emails are forwarded or signatures reused.

How many users/seats are included?

Pricing is per-user per month. No seat minimums or team bundles. All teammates must be on the same plan; no mixed tiers or view-only discounts.

Does Streak have integrations?

Pro and higher include Google Workspace and API access. Pro+ adds direct integrations, Zapier (9,000+ apps), and LinkedIn (added Feb 2026). No multi-channel integrations (WhatsApp, SMS, phone).

What is the AI Co-Pilot?

Streak integrates Claude and ChatGPT via Model Context Protocol. Pro includes 20 AI credits/user/month; Pro+ includes 150; Enterprise includes 500. Used for deal queries, autofill, and pipeline analysis.

Can I mix plan levels across my team?

No. All team members must be on the same plan tier.

Why is Gmail sometimes slow with Streak?

As pipelines grow and hold more records, the extension renders more data in Gmail's sidebar, increasing load. Large inboxes compound the effect.

What's included in exports?

Standard export includes records and fields but excludes email threads, file attachments, and comments, making data portability difficult for audit or switching.
