What It Is

Coherence is a relationship-intelligence SaaS operated by 6away. It is not positioned as a traditional CRM; instead, it brings contacts, companies, pipelines, email outreach, bookings, forms, automations, and data sources such as WhatsApp/LinkedIn/Telegram/Gmail into one platform. Through The Guru, relationship graphs, scoring, and daily briefings, it highlights the people and opportunities worth following up on.

Core Features and Integrations

The product has broad coverage: People/Companies, sales pipelines, Forms, Booking links, Sequences, Campaigns, Tasks & automations, Prospecting, document and web scraping, Affiliate management, and more. Data sources include Gmail, Google Contacts, Google Calendar, WhatsApp, LinkedIn, Telegram, CSV, iPhone contacts, Webhooks & API, etc. Pro/Business plans offer a REST JSON API, Webhook, HMAC signatures, pagination, and idempotency keys, making them suitable for integration with internal systems.

Pricing and Trial

The Free plan is available permanently, requires no credit card, and includes all 14 categories of data sources plus up to 1,000 contacts, but it does not include AI features. Pro is $29/seat/month, supporting up to 10,000 contacts, 5 team members, full API access, and basic AI. Business is $99/seat/month, with unlimited contacts, unlimited members, unlimited API/Webhook usage, priority support, relationship graphs, and daily AI briefings. Annual billing is roughly equivalent to getting two months free.

Pros and Cons

Its strengths lie in consolidating multiple categories of tools at a relatively low cost, making it especially suitable for small teams that rely on referrals, relationship nurturing, BD, and sales follow-ups. The Free plan is also fairly generous in terms of data-source access. The drawbacks are limited security and compliance disclosures, with no visible SOC 2, ISO 27001, or similar certification information; the Free plan lacks the core AI capabilities; and because the product has many modules, teams should validate workflow complexity and data accuracy before adopting it in production.

Best Fit and Access from China

Coherence is better suited to founders, sales teams, investor relations, partnership development, referral-based recruiting, and lightweight CRM use cases. For access from China, website availability cannot be confirmed from text alone, but since it relies on services such as Gmail, Google Calendar, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, and Telegram, usage in mainland China is likely to be partially restricted. Network and account availability should be tested in advance; payment methods are not disclosed. Alternative products include HubSpot, Attio, Folk, Apollo, Calendly, Mailchimp, Zapier, and others.
