Streak Raises $1.9 Million For Gmail-Based CRM App
Summary
Streak has raised $1.9 million for its CRM service that uses a Google Chrome extension to share your email and track deals through your Gmail inbox. Mawani said a friend who works for Uber told him that half the company uses the Streak service to manage marketing projects and rollouts. Mawani said Gmail’s deep JavaScript and HTML complexity makes it difficult to build apps. But the platform itself has 450 million active users, making it a fertile place to build out services. Streak sees a whole host of other use cases besides CRM – specifically, task management, bug tracking, deal flow and hiring.
