Why doesn't my folk pipeline total match my number of deals?
The folk help pages give 3 common reasons. The first to rule out: A stage total can be a sum of deal values rather than a count of deals, so it can look far larger than the number of cards.
What causes it?
A stage total can be a sum of deal values rather than a count of deals, so it can look far larger than the number of cards.
In the folk help:
This way you can get the sum of your deals value for instance.
Track deals, read 2026-11-12.One deal can sit on several people and companies, so counting deals person by person can count the same deal more than once.
In the folk help:
A deal can be linked to both people & companies, and the same deal can be linked to multiple people and/or companies.
Track deals, read 2026-11-12.Contacts outside the group where deals were created cannot be linked to them, so some leads can have no deal attached.
In the folk help:
You can only link people & companies to your Deals, if they are part of the group where you have created Deals.

How do I check it myself?
Open a deal to see which people and companies it is attached to before comparing totals.
In the folk help:
On the object profile, you can also check which people & companies are attached to this deal and link more if needed.
Track deals, read 2026-11-12.Filter deals by the people or companies they are linked to when a total looks off, to see which deals it includes.
In the folk help:
You can also filter deals by their name, associated fields and by the people/company they are linked to:

How does folk work with Feder?
- Connect folk to Feder and it joins your Interest apps.
- When you connect folk, Feder checks the connection straight away and shows Connected only when that check passes. If a reading cannot be taken later, Feder shows it as not read, never as zero.
Some numbers are too quiet to judge daily, such as a form filled in a few times a week. Until there is enough of your own history to judge a change, Feder says it is still learning and scores nothing, rather than guessing.
See whether you can trust the numbers in folk, one of your Interest apps. Feder only reads. It never changes anything in folk.
