What is Streak?
Streak's Gmail CRM keeps adding AI fields and team presence, now on mobile too.
Streak is a CRM inside Gmail that has spent 2026 connecting to AI: an MCP server that can create records, a one-click Claude connector, and October's AI autofill templates for lead scoring and account research. Automations can fire on new emails, calls and meeting notes. Mobile apps now show which teammates are viewing a deal, matching desktop.
What is Less Annoying CRM?
Less Annoying CRM lets users pin notes to the top of a contact
LACRM ships slowly and from user requests. Two weeks after October's bundle of six features (scratchpad widget, custom contact labels, event and task search, history filters), it added pinned notes that stay at the top of a contact or company record. Earlier in the year came configurable task views, rich text fields, undo merge and relative date filters.

◆ Current state
Streak is a CRM inside Gmail that has spent 2026 connecting to AI: an MCP server that can create records, a one-click Claude connector, and October's AI autofill templates for lead scoring and account research. Automations can fire on new emails, calls and meeting notes. Mobile apps now show which teammates are viewing a deal, matching desktop.
◆ Where it's heading
Streak is turning email activity into structured data that AI tools and automations can act on, while closing mobile parity gaps for reps. The AI work has moved from integrations with outside assistants to AI features inside the pipeline itself.
◆ Prediction
More AI autofill templates and automation triggers are likely next; the entries do not show pricing changes for AI features.

◆ Current state
LACRM ships slowly and from user requests.

Earlier in the year came configurable task views, rich text fields, undo merge and relative date filters.
◆ Where it's heading
The work stays on the daily record view: making the current state of a client easier to see as history grows. No AI, pricing or integration moves appear in the entries.
◆ Prediction
More small record-view and search features, either one at a time or as another bundle, are the likely next step.
