What makes it different

Built around the way you actually work.

Same app, every device.

Open it in any browser. Or grab the desktop installer if you want a dedicated window. Or the Android app for when you're mobile. Same login. Same data. Real-time sync — start a text on your phone, finish it on your laptop.

A real CRM. Not a Rolodex.

Place calls. Send and receive SMS. Manage your email inbox. Track deals through a pipeline. Schedule tasks, events, and appointments. Everything tied back to the contact — no copy-pasting between four tools.

Open it. Use it.

No admin. No multi-day onboarding. No per-seat pricing. Sign up, walk through five steps of setup, and you're running your business inside Groundbase before lunch.

What's inside

Everything a CRM needs.
Nothing it doesn't.

Groundbase dashboard with KPI tiles, pipeline panel, today's tasks
01 / Overview

Open the tab. See everything.

Today's tasks, your open pipeline, what's overdue, what hit your inbox this week — one screen, no clicks. Built so you can answer 'where do I stand?' in five seconds, not five tabs.

Contact detail showing tags, custom fields, deals, addresses, and activity timeline
02 / Contacts

The whole relationship on one page.

Every text, email, call, deal, note, and task about a contact lives on their profile. Custom fields you actually use. Tags you define. A timeline that reads like a conversation, not a spreadsheet.

Deals kanban board with six stages, drag-and-drop deal cards
03 / Deals

Pipeline you can read at a glance.

Drag deals between stages. See total value per stage. Tag the hot ones. The board layout fits the way you actually think about a pipeline — not a sales-team SaaS dashboard with twelve required fields per row.

SMS thread with conversation bubbles, contact info sidebar, send box
04 / SMS

Text from your real number.

Bring your own number — buy a fresh one in two clicks or port your existing one. Bulk-send, schedule, attach to a contact, drop into a thread. Replies land back in the same conversation. Bill at $0.025/segment against a top-up balance — no surprise SMS bills.

Phone tab with recent calls, voicemail with transcript, dialer
05 / Phone & voicemail

Calls. Voicemail. Transcripts.

Place outbound calls from any device. Inbound rings on whatever you have open. Voicemails come with a transcript so you never play one twice. Optional call recording with full-text transcription via Whisper for the conversations worth keeping.

Email inbox with thread list and selected conversation
06 / Email

Your inbox, tied to your contacts.

Connect Gmail, Outlook, or any IMAP account. Every message gets attached to the right contact automatically. Send-as aliases for working under different brands. The inbox you already use, with a CRM wrapped around it.

Tasks page in calendar view with color-coded chips for tasks, events, appointments
07 / Tasks & calendar

Tasks, events, appointments. Same calendar.

Color-coded by type. Linked to the contact, deal, or company they're about. Recurrence for the weekly check-ins. Overdue lives at the top so it stops drifting. Skip the separate calendar app.

Three ways in

Same app. Three places to run it.

Sign in once, sync everywhere. Pick whichever fits the moment — the web app is the default, the others are extras.

Not into subscriptions?

Try Groundbase CRM Local.

The original Groundbase — $39 one-time, runs entirely on your Windows machine, data stays in a single file you own. SMS, voice, and email all work — but you bring your own Twilio account + IMAP login, and there's no sync between devices and no mobile app. No monthly fee either.

FAQ

Questions.

Do I need a credit card to start the trial?
Yes. We collect a card up front so you can transition straight into the subscription without a second checkout. You won't be charged until day 15, and you can cancel any time before then with no fee.
What happens to my data if I cancel?
Your subscription stays active through the end of the billing period you already paid for. After it ends, your phone number is released (it can be claimed by another user once it's back in the Twilio pool), and your account enters a 30-day hold. Reactivate within those 30 days and everything's intact. After that the data is removed.
Where does my data live?
In Groundbase's cloud database, hosted on Turso. We back it up daily. You can export everything to JSON at any time (Settings → Backup & Export) — contacts, deals, tasks, SMS, calls, the lot.
What's the difference between the cloud version and Groundbase CRM Local?
Both have contacts, deals, tasks, SMS, voice, and email. The differences are around how they run:

Cloud (this page, $9.99/mo) — web app, desktop app, Android app. Sign in once, real-time sync between every device. One included phone number; SMS/voice/transcription billed against a top-up balance (we manage Twilio for you).

Local ($39 once) — Windows only, data lives in a single SQLite file on your computer. No sync between devices, no mobile app. SMS and voice work, but you bring your own Twilio account and pay Twilio directly. Email connects to any IMAP account. See the Local page →
How does SMS / voice billing work?
The $9.99/mo subscription covers the CRM and one phone number. Outbound SMS, inbound SMS, voice calls, and transcription get billed against a separate pay-as-you-go top-up balance — $0.025/segment for SMS, $0.05/min for outbound voice, similar rates for the rest. Auto-recharge keeps it topped up. No surprise bills.
Is there a free tier?
The 14-day trial gives you the full app — no feature limits during it. After the trial, paid only. (If you want a no-subscription option, see Groundbase CRM Local.)
Can I bring my own phone number?
Yes. Port an existing number to your Twilio subaccount inside Groundbase, or buy a fresh one in two clicks (any US area code). The first number is included in your subscription; extras are $3.50/mo each.
Does Groundbase share my data with anyone?
The signed-in app has no third-party analytics, ads, or tracking — your CRM data is never shared. Our marketing site (this page) uses PostHog for anonymous page-view analytics, which is never linked to your account or your CRM data. The only outbound services the app uses are Twilio (SMS + voice), Stripe (billing), Resend (the transactional emails we send you), and your email provider's IMAP/SMTP if you connect one.
Who built this?
One developer. Built without VC funding, on a single subscription tier, with no plans to add an enterprise SKU. Email support@groundbasecrm.com — you'll hear back within 24 hours in most cases.
