    About

    In practice. What you can do with Folk.

    Folk is a lightweight, collaborative CRM. With no permanent free plan (14-day trial of Premium features), it bills per user/month with enrichment and message credits pooled at the workspace level, not per individual seat: a small team can burn through its monthly quota faster than expected if several people enrich contacts in parallel.

    Practical uses

    • Auto-enrich lead data from LinkedIn.
    • Automate email follow-ups and nurture sequences.
    • Centralize all conversations (email, LinkedIn, messages).
