Clari Forecast vs Revenue Grid (2026)
Revenue Grid and Clari meet at the forecast, but they start from different layers of the sales record. Revenue Grid captures every email, meeting, contact and document into Salesforce under rules an administrator sets, then builds pipeline review, forecasting, deal guidance and cadences on that captured history. Clari Forecast starts from the forecast call, setting an AI projection trained on the customer's past deals beside each manager's number, and it now runs alongside Salesloft's execution tools. Revenue Grid prints its seat prices and offers public cloud, private cloud, on premises or a physically separate tenant, which counts for the banks, insurers and law firms it serves. Clari is quoted only through Salesloft and is hosted in the United States. A regulated sales team that needs its activity record inside its own CRM and on infrastructure it controls has the clearer path with Revenue Grid. A large forecasting organization whose sellers already work in Salesloft gains more from Clari.
- The weekly forecast call is the meeting that matters most. Clari Forecast sets an AI projection trained on past deals beside each manager's number.
- Sellers already work in Salesloft every day. A forecast gap or a slipping deal found in Clari opens actions in that workflow.
- AI assistants need live forecast data. Salesloft's MCP server exposes Clari forecasting and deal inspection data to them, with write back.
- Compliance requires the activity record to live in the firm's own Salesforce. Revenue Grid writes captured email, meetings and documents there under administrator rules.
- Infrastructure policy rules out shared cloud hosting. Revenue Grid runs in private cloud, on premises or in a physically isolated tenant.
- Budget approval needs a printed seat price. Revenue Grid publishes three per user packages, with forecasting in the top one.

The short version of each
Clari Forecast
Clari Forecast is built for the weekly forecast call in a large sales organization. Managers see individual and team numbers on one dashboard, filtered by bookings, renewals, region, segment or account size, and Forecast AI projects each outcome from the deal history the customer already holds. Inspect points to stalled buying activity and gaps in execution before they reach the number. Clari now sells through Salesloft, and the link between the products is practical: a risk Clari finds can open work in a seller's Salesloft day. On outcome evidence and segment coverage the GTM Tech Index gives Clari an A, reflecting analyst placements and customers across technology, healthcare, financial services and manufacturing. It grades Clari D on commercial transparency, since no price or package is published, and B on deployment for its United States hosting.

Revenue Grid
Revenue Grid starts with capture. Native applications for Salesforce, Google and Microsoft log every email, meeting, contact and document into Salesforce, and administrators decide which interactions and custom objects are written there. Knowledge Capture adds AI chat and search over that history, and the Ultimate package adds pipeline reevaluation, forecasting, deal guidance, meeting assistance and multichannel cadences. The GTM Tech Index grades Revenue Grid A on deployment, because customers choose public cloud, private cloud or on premises hosting, with a physically separate private tenant available. Privacy reaches A as well: the privacy program holds ISO 27701 with an annual audit, and the company participates in the Data Privacy Framework. Its customers are mostly regulated firms, including banks, insurance brokerages, capital markets firms, law firms and medical device makers. The knowledge lake itself has no published export terms.

Common questions
How much do Clari and Revenue Grid cost per user?
Revenue Grid publishes three packages: Activity Capture 360 at $30 per user a month, Knowledge Capture at $49 and Revenue Grid Ultimate, which includes forecasting, at $149. Each still goes through a quote, and implementation is a one time fee without a published amount. Clari publishes no price at all and is quoted through Salesloft's sales team. The GTM Tech Index grades Revenue Grid B and Clari D on commercial transparency.
Can Revenue Grid run on premises, and where is Clari hosted?
Revenue Grid offers public cloud, private cloud and on premises deployment, plus a private tenant with physically separate data and a dedicated hosting subscription. Clari's platform is hosted in the United States, with no European region named. The difference weighs most with regulated buyers who must control where client communications are stored. Graded by GTM Tech Index against seventeen capability axes from each vendor's own published materials, verified October 13, 2026. No vendor pays for placement.
Which one writes more sales activity into Salesforce?
Revenue Grid's core job is capture: email, meetings, contacts and documents are logged to Salesforce under administrator rules, including custom objects. Clari reads activity from CRM, calendar, email and conversations into its own data layer to build the forecast. With Revenue Grid, the captured history stays in the customer's Salesforce if the subscription ends. Graded by GTM Tech Index against seventeen capability axes from each vendor's own published materials, verified October 13, 2026. No vendor pays for placement.
Can Clari or Revenue Grid change CRM records without review?
Revenue Grid's automatic writes are limited to logging captured activity under rules the administrator controls, and its intelligence features advise rather than act, which is why the GTM Tech Index grades its oversight model B. Clari Forecast sits at C on the same axis, because the AI Forecast Agent is described by what it produces, with no published limit on unattended changes.
What happens to forecast history and the knowledge lake after cancellation?
Clari's master agreement keeps customer data available for export for 90 days after the subscription ends. Revenue Grid leaves captured activity in the customer's Salesforce, but its revenue data lake and assistant knowledge sit on Revenue Grid's side with no published export or deletion terms. Neither vendor describes an export format for derived forecasts and deal scores. Graded by GTM Tech Index against seventeen capability axes from each vendor's own published materials, verified October 13, 2026. No vendor pays for placement.
