Rare for Teams
The CRM your agents can finish.
A CRM your team talks to: tell it what happened, and it files each detail under the right people. Then your agents change the CRM itself, its data, screens and workflows, while we keep the core underneath running.
Why now
Your team can build software in an afternoon. Why are you still waiting on your vendor?
A few years ago, even a few months ago, changing your CRM meant a feature request and a long wait. Coding agents ended that: most teams can now make those changes themselves, if the platform lets them. That changes how a business should buy software, and what it should expect of the companies it buys from.
Not an extension
Other CRMs give you an API to work around them. We give your agents the CRM itself.
Every CRM ships the vendor’s idea of your business, and your team bends to fit it. Rare for Teams lets your agents bend the CRM instead.
The vendor’s idea of a contact, a deal and a pipeline
A data model your agents shape to how your business works
An API to read and write records
The CRM itself, open to your agents: its data, screens and workflows
Plugins in a sandbox, limited to the hooks the vendor exposes
Changes made in the CRM, reviewed and versioned like code
Customization that stops where the settings page stops
If your agent can build it, your CRM can do it
Upgrades that break what you customized
A core we maintain underneath, keeping your changes working
Your data in their database, behind an export button
Plain text in a git repository that leaves with you
How it works
Ask for a new view, field or workflow, and it’s built into the CRM.
Whoever your team already asks to build things can change the CRM’s own code and data model. The change is reviewed and versioned like any other, and it’s live for your team without a server to run.

Ready on day one
Rare for Teams works on day one. Change only what your business needs, and we keep all of it running.
Every team starts with the same Rare and its sensible defaults: people and orgs, conversations filed under them, follow-ups and answers with sources. When something doesn’t fit your business, ask for the change.
And nobody on your team has to maintain it for the next five years. Running what you build, in production, is our job.
Unfinished does not mean unconsidered. It means you shouldn’t need our permission.
What teams build on top
Investors by stage and warmth, candidates through hiring and customers after the sale, all in one memory.

Bring your skills
The skills your team already wrote run next to your CRM, and file what they find under the right companies.
Your team has already taught its agents to do things well. Rare for Teams gives those skills somewhere to live: a machine beside your CRM, with its memory to read and write.

A full Linux machine for every CRM
Each Rare for Teams CRM runs on its own machine. Install the runtimes, tools and scripts your skills need.
The skills you already have
Account research, competitive analysis, pipeline reviews: the skills your team built for Claude, Codex or Gemini can run here.
Results land in the CRM
What a skill finds is written into your CRM as entries with sources, on the right people and companies, and shows up in History.
We run the infrastructure
No servers to stand up, no cron to babysit. Schedule a skill, or let your team’s agents call it when they need it.
Safe to build on
Agents can’t break it: every change is checked, committed and sourced before your team sees it.
Letting agents change your CRM only works if the foundation survives them. All of this is already true of Rare today.

Plain text is the source of truth
Everything Rare knows is in readable text files. Pages, lists and search are rebuilt from them, so nothing an agent builds can corrupt what you know.
Every change is a commit
The journal is a git repository. Every edit, a person’s or an agent’s, is recorded, reviewable and reversible.
Checked before it lands
Every change is checked against the whole journal before it is saved, and a change that would break it is refused.
Every fact has a source
Each thing Rare knows links back to where it came from, so automation never blurs what was said with what was guessed.
Agents check their own work
After every edit, an agent runs Rare’s checks, and each mistake names the line to fix, before anything reaches your team.
One set of rules
Your agents follow the same instructions Rare’s own agent does, so what they write reads like what Rare writes.
No lock-in
Your CRM is plain text in a git repository, so it leaves with you whenever you do.
A CRM your agents build on should never trap the business that built it. Clone it and you have all of it: the journal with its history, and every view, workflow and skill your agents wrote.
$ git clone rare:acme-crm
Cloning into 'acme-crm'… done.

We’re opening Rare for Teams to a handful of teams already building their own agent skills.
If your team writes skills for Claude, Codex or Gemini today, you’d work directly with us, Rai and Roy, and shape what we build first.
