G2 rankings underscore Apollo’s position as the leading agentic end-to-end GTM platform powering revenue teams worldwide
Apollo.io, a leading AI-native go-to-market platform, today announced it has been ranked across a number of G2’s 2026 Best Software Awards. This includes prominent rankings in the following five categories:
- #13 for Best Sales Software (out of 446 companies)
- #27 for Best Marketing and Digital Advertising (out of 921 companies)
- #36 for Best Collaboration and Productivity (out of 503 companies)
- #44 for Best AI Software Products (out of 241 companies)
- #80 for Best Global Software (out of 3,938 companies)
Notably, Apollo is the only sales intelligence platform named in this year’s Best AI Software Products list, a testament to the company’s leadership in redefining modern go-to-market.
“As sales cycles accelerate, revenue teams can’t afford to be constrained by fragmented tech stacks. Modern teams need a unified GTM operating system built for speed and precision,” said Matt Curl, CEO of Apollo.io. “Apollo’s mission is to empower businesses of any size with the industry’s first comprehensive AI-native platform. We’re taking data into action and have become the ‘operating system’ for hundreds of thousands of revenue-generating teams worldwide. This recognition from G2 reflects the impact we’re delivering to our customers, and reinforces the momentum we’re building across the GTM ecosystem.”
Backed by nearly 10,000 customer reviews, the most of any sales intelligence company, G2 recognizes Apollo for its ease of use and best-in-class features, enabling sales and revenue teams to execute and drive impact from one intelligent operating system. Apollo AI actively drives workflows across the sales funnel — from identifying accounts to drafting outreach to supporting deal management.
Additionally, G2’s “The State of AI Sales Intelligence in Prospecting: 2026 Industry Report” recognized Apollo with its highest rating of 4.7/5. The report stated that Apollo is, “Focused on AI-guided account discovery, predictive scoring, and workflow-native prospecting experiences that integrate intelligence directly into execution.”
According to G2 Data, 60% of B2B software teams already use AI across their sales processes. At that level, AI sales intelligence tools aren’t experimental; they’re expected to influence how teams prioritize, sequence, and execute. Apollo is clearly positioned as a leader in this regard.
G2 is the world’s largest and most trusted software marketplace, reaching over 100 million buyers annually. Its annual Best Software Awards rank the world’s best software companies and products based on authentic, timely reviews from real users.
“As buyers increasingly shift to AI-driven research to discover software solutions, being recommended in the ‘answer moment’ must be earned with credible proof,” said Godard Abel, co-founder and CEO at G2. “Our Best Software Awards are grounded in trusted data from authentic customer reviews. They not only give buyers an objective, reliable guide to the products that help teams do their best work, but they’re also the proof AI search platforms rely on when sourcing answers. Congratulations to this year’s winners, including Apollo. Earning a spot on these lists signals real customer impact.”
This news comes on the heels of other recent announcements validating Apollo’s leadership in AI-powered GTM. Apollo was recently named to The Agentic List 2026 as a high-momentum, uptrending organization driving revenue for sales and marketing teams with agentic AI. This week, Apollo also announced the launch of its native connector for Anthropic’s Claude, with which users can run outbound workflows — including identifying leads and adding them to outreach sequences — directly within a Claude conversation.
