For small businesses that need a CRM

Free plan, no card needed.

AXL Kanban pipeline with five stages, deal counts and totals, contact cards, responsible owners and tags.
What it is

A CRM where forms, deals, calls and messages meet.

A lead fills a form, a deal opens, someone is assigned and gets a task. Calls and messages land on the same contact.

An AXL sales pipeline: deal cards in stages, each stage showing its deal count and total.
A pipeline with deal counts and totals.
  • Pipelines. Several boards, with required fields per stage.
  • Lead source. Each form submission links to its page and visit.
  • Assignment. Round robin with tasks and escalation.
  • Calls and chat. Phone, email, WhatsApp and Instagram in one inbox.

Good to know: No invoicing or VAT. Integrations run through webhooks and the REST API.

Set up our pipeline: New, Contacted, Proposal, Won, Lost. Then a scenario that opens a deal on every form submission, assigns it round-robin, and starts a 24-hour task that escalates. Show me the graph first.

What it does
  • 1. Creates the pipeline: New, Contacted, Proposal, Won, Lost.
  • 2. Opens a deal for every form submission and assigns it in turn.
  • 3. Adds a 24-hour task that escalates if nobody acts.
  • 4. Shows you the graph first.
