The short answer
Which is right for your team?

Choose trumpet if…
You want AI agents that act on CRM, Gong and Pod activity, with approval steps
You're upper mid-market or enterprise, with ops teams who need approvals and locked Templates
You want Pods that look like your own website, auto-branded to every buyer
You need to map the whole buying committee, with an org chart built by AI
You want buyers to review proposals and quotes and sign them inside the room
Aligned may suit you if…
Your team is small or lower mid-market and prefers a fully self-serve setup
You mainly need a shared space for documents, messages and deal updates
Straightforward Mutual Action Plans with tasks, owners and deadlines are enough
You want basic engagement tracking, without advanced AI as a priority
A quick, templated deal page is enough, without deep personalisation
