The Gong alternative built for the agent era
Call recording, AI coaching and deal data, without Gong's platform fee or a 3-month rollout. No bot in the call, live in 5 minutes, from €24/user/month.
Free trial · No credit card
No-bot recording: video calls, phone calls and emails captured natively.
No bot tile in the meeting. No setup for reps. Claap records natively on Zoom, Meet and Teams, captures phone calls from Aircall and Ringover, and pulls in the email threads around every deal. Every conversation, captured from day one.

Smart Tables: flexible, structured data from every conversation.
Define any AI field (budget, decision-maker, competitor, risk) and reshape it whenever your process changes. Fields aggregate per meeting, per deal and per account, sync to HubSpot or Salesforce, and a new field backfills your entire call history. That flexibility is what locked-in trackers and per-call notes can't do.

With the Claap MCP, changing what you measure takes a sentence, not a quarter.
Connect Claude to Claap and it does more than answer questions about your pipeline. Ask for a new scoring criterion and it creates the AI field, then the view your team reads it in. Ask it to update a deal after the call and it writes the stage, owner and amount into HubSpot. It only reaches what your own Claap login reaches.

Common questions.
Is Claap a good alternative to Gong?
Claap is the leading Gong alternative for fast-moving SMB and mid-market teams. No bot, no implementation project. AI scorecards on every call. Data structured per deal and account. An MCP where Claude creates your scoring fields and updates your deals. €24–48/user/month, no platform fees.
How much does Gong cost in 2026?
Based on published 2025 pricing data: ~$108–120/user/month core, up to ~$250 bundled. Add platform fees of $5,000–50,000/year and implementation fees of $15,000–65,000. Contracts typically run 3 years. Exact pricing requires a sales quote.
Does Gong have an MCP server?
Yes, and it is read-only. Gong's own documentation says its MCP server does not create, update or delete anything in Gong or your CRM, and that it returns AI-generated summaries rather than raw transcripts. Claap's MCP goes the other way: Claude can create an AI field and the view it lives in, and write a deal's stage, owner and amount into HubSpot.
What does no-bot recording mean?
Claap captures calls natively instead of sending a recording bot to join the meeting. Prospects see a normal call. Phone conversations are captured directly from Aircall or Ringover. Consent workflows are supported.
Can I migrate from Gong to Claap?
Yes. Claap sets up in about 5 minutes: calendar, conferencing, dialer. Migration support is included on Enterprise plans. Most teams run their first fully-captured calls the same day.
Is Claap GDPR compliant?
Yes. Claap is built in Europe and your conversation data is hosted in the EU, not the US like Gong. Claap is GDPR compliant and supports consent workflows for call recording across regions.
