Attio

AI · London, United Kingdom · Founded 2017

Attio is a London-based technology company that has developed a customizable and AI-native Customer Relationship Management (CRM) platform. Founded in 2017 by CEO Nicolas Sharp and CTO Alexander Christie, the company aims to provide a flexible, data-driven alternative to traditional CRM systems. The founders' initial motivation stemmed from personal frustrations with existing CRMs, which they found to be clunky and rigid. Sharp, with a background in business development at a venture capital firm, and Christie, with his technical expertise, first created a verticalized CRM for VCs called Fundstack. Realizing the market was limited, they pivoted to building a more comprehensive, horizontal CRM from the ground up, launching publicly as Attio in 2022 after a three-year development period. The platform is designed for modern go-to-market (GTM) teams and allows users to build, automate, and customize their CRM to fit their specific business models and workflows. Attio's core features include a flexible data model with custom objects and attributes, real-time data synchronization and collaboration, automated data enrichment, and an intelligent automation engine. The system automatically creates and enriches contact and company profiles by syncing with users' email and calendars, capturing data points like job titles, employee counts, and interaction history. It also offers advanced reporting and analytics, pipeline and deal management, and an App SDK that allows users to build custom applications directly within the platform. Attio operates on a freemium business model, offering several pricing tiers, including a Free plan for small teams, as well as Plus, Pro, and Enterprise plans for scaling businesses with more advanced needs. The company targets high-growth technology companies and serves over 5,000 paying customers, including notable names like Lovable, Modal, Replicate, and Public. Attio has successfully raised a total of $141 million over seven funding rounds. Its latest funding was a Series B round, which included investors like GV (Google Ventures), Redpoint Ventures, Balderton Capital, and Point Nine.
