Koala

Overview

Koala is an AI-assisted sales platform for teams that need to prioritize accounts, qualify leads and keep outreach moving. It is most relevant to sales and Rev Ops teams seeking one workflow for signals, enrichment and follow-up. The announced shutdown makes it a risky choice for any team planning to depend on it long term.

Key features

Koala brings together first-party and third-party signals, with more than 30 signal sources and more than 30 enrichment sources. Account Fit and Intent Scoring help teams focus on promising accounts, while waterfall enrichment and custom research build a consolidated view of AI-enriched, pre-qualified leads. That combination can reduce the work of assembling prospect context, though teams should weigh the product’s planned shutdown before adopting it.

Agent Swarm lets Rev Ops configure shared agents that reps can extend and improve with feedback. Koala also supports sending emails from the product and connecting to sales engagement platforms. Its automations can sync intent signals to a CRM, route high-intent leads and assign rep tasks; named connections include HubSpot, Salesforce, Apollo, Outreach and custom webhook workflows.

Koala states that it is SOC 2 Type II certified, GDPR and CCPA compliant, and conducts annual third-party penetration tests and external code audits. Google SSO and magic links are supported, while SAML through Okta is limited to Business.

Pricing

The free plan costs nothing and includes two seats, 100 credits per month and all features. It offers a low-commitment way to assess the workflow, but the 100-credit allowance is far smaller than the paid tiers.

Starter costs $200 a month, billed $200 per month, and includes two seats, 1,000 credits per month and all features. Additional seats are available for purchase. It suits a small team needing more monthly capacity, but still starts with only two seats.

Growth costs $1,000 a month, billed $1000 per month, and includes three seats, 5,000 credits per month and all features, with a 14-day free trial. Additional seats are available for purchase. Its higher credit allowance fits teams with greater usage needs, though the starting seat count remains three.

Business has custom pricing, custom seats and credits, and all features. It is the tier for teams needing tailored capacity or SAML via Okta; it also includes a CSM and dedicated Slack channel, compared with docs support on Free and email support on Starter and Growth. Free is limited to docs support, while paid plans receive email support before Business adds dedicated assistance.

Platforms

Koala is available as a web product and browser extension, giving teams both browser-based access and an extension option.

Who it's for

Koala is best suited to sales and Rev Ops teams that want account signals, lead enrichment, scoring and automated CRM routing in a connected workflow. Teams that need a dependable platform beyond the announced Sept 30 shutdown should look elsewhere rather than build long-term processes around it.

Pros and cons

• Pros: More than 30 signal and enrichment sources, scoring, lead research and routing support a broad prospecting workflow.
• Pros: The free tier includes all features and two seats, providing a way to explore the product without paying.
• Pros: Published security commitments include SOC 2 Type II certification, GDPR and CCPA compliance, and annual third-party testing and code audits.
• Cons: Koala has announced it will shut down on Sept 30, undermining its suitability for ongoing use.
• Cons: Free is capped at 100 credits per month, and Starter begins at $200 per month for two seats.

Verdict

Koala’s connected signals, enrichment and automation make it a capable fit for sales and Rev Ops teams seeking a single prospecting workflow. But the announced Sept 30 shutdown is the decisive drawback: choose it only if its remaining availability fits your needs, and look elsewhere for a platform to support long-term sales operations.
