Copper
CRM & SalesCRM built natively for Google Workspace
About Copper
Copper is a CRM built natively inside Google Workspace, automatically capturing emails, meetings, and files from Gmail and Google Calendar to give sales teams a zero-data-entry relationship manager.
Editorial Assessment
Copper is a San Francisco-based CRM platform founded in 2013 (originally as ProsperWorks) by Jon Lee, specifically designed to work natively inside Google Workspace. Rather than forcing sales teams to learn a new tool, Copper embeds directly into Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive, and Google Meet — so contacts, emails, files, and meetings are automatically captured and logged without manual data entry. This frictionless data capture is Copper's primary differentiator against Salesforce, HubSpot, and Pipedrive, where teams must context-switch and manually log activity. Copper automatically populates contact records from Gmail, attaches relevant email threads to deals, creates calendar events as activities, and surfaces deal context directly in the Gmail sidebar. The CRM is best suited for service-based businesses — agencies, consultancies, real estate firms, and professional services — that manage long-term client relationships primarily over email and Google Calendar. Pipelines are visual and Kanban-style, with drag-and-drop deal progression and automated follow-up reminders. Copper integrates natively with Google Sheets for reporting exports and connects to Zapier, Slack, and 70+ other tools. It is not a strong fit for high-volume outbound sales teams — its email sequencing and mass outreach capabilities are lighter than Salesloft, Outreach, or even HubSpot Sales Hub. Copper raised $42 million in funding and was acquired by Recurly in 2023. Pricing starts at $23/user/month (Basic), with Professional at $59/user/month and Business at $99/user/month. It is one of the few CRMs with a Google Workspace Recommended badge, indicating deep platform partnership status.
