10 Best PhantomBuster Alternatives & Competitors In 2026

min read
September 1, 2026
Are you looking for the best PhantomBuster alternatives now that the execution hours run out before the month does, or the replies are coming back somewhere your team can't see them?
I've put together 10 PhantomBuster alternatives for 2026, each paired with the kind of operation it suits once a lead list has to turn into conversations.
TL;DR
Meet Alfred is the best PhantomBuster alternative in 2026 for sales teams, agencies, recruiters, and solo founders, because prospect discovery, three outreach channels, every reply in one inbox, and client branding all run on a flat seat price from $29 with nothing metered.
HeyReach, Sbl.so, and La Growth Machine bill by connected sending account or sending profile, which suits an operation where the profile count and the headcount move separately.
Waalaxy comes closest to PhantomBuster's signal-led list building, collecting post reactions and competitor engagement on its own. Dripify, Waalaxy, and Dux-Soup all start below PhantomBuster's Start tier if budget is the constraint.
Outreach that reaches past LinkedIn goes toLemlist for calls and WhatsApp, La Growth Machine for calls and X, and We-Connect for email steps that fire on LinkedIn behaviour, with Expandi the pick for buyers whose first question is about the LinkedIn account itself.
What are the best alternatives to PhantomBuster?
The best alternatives to PhantomBuster in 2026 are Meet Alfred, HeyReach, and Dripify.
Here’s an overview of my complete shortlist of vendors:
Tool
Best For
Pricing
Meet Alfred
Teams and agencies that need a shared inbox and client branding without a custom quote attached to either.
$29/user/month billed annually for LinkedIn-only, $49 for multi-channel, $39 on Team. Seven-day trial, no card.
HeyReach
Agencies whose connected LinkedIn profiles outnumber the people managing them.
$79/month covers one sender, 25 senders from $999. Trial runs 14 days.
Dripify
Small teams and independent sellers who want a drip builder over LinkedIn and email that reports at every step.
$39/user/month billed annually, rising to $79 for step analytics.
Waalaxy
Teams whose first campaign should be running before the day is out.
€19/user/month at entry, €69 once cold email is included. Trial runs 14 days.
Expandi
Buyers whose opening question about any tool concerns the LinkedIn account itself.
$79/month, two months waived on annual billing. Agency quoted from ten seats.
We-Connect
Recruiters and small sales teams whose email steps should follow LinkedIn activity.
$49/seat/month billed annually, $59 once email steps come in. Trial runs 14 days.
Dux-Soup
Solo operators working out of the browser on the smallest budget here.
€12.99/month for the extension, €88 for the cloud edition. Trial runs 14 days.
La Growth Machine
Outbound teams that would sooner pay per sending profile than per head.
$60/month per identity, $110 once calling is included. Trial runs 14 days.
Lemlist
Senders whose deliverability, not their copy, is costing them replies.
$55/month billed annually, $87 for multichannel. Two-week trial.
Sbl.so
Founders selling alone who want the sending volume kept away from their personal profile.
$99/month covers two outreach seats. Free until a booked meeting, three positive replies, or 300 outreaches land, whichever comes soonest.
Note: Every tool below runs outreach as a core function, and not extraction alone, publishes its pricing, opens a trial you can start without a sales call, and is on sale today, not on a waitlist. That's why pure enrichment platforms are absent from the shortlist.
#1: Meet Alfred
Meet Alfred is the best alternative to PhantomBuster in 2026 for sales teams, agencies, recruiters, and solo founders who want the sourcing, the sending, and the replies covered by one subscription.
Everything that happens after a list exists is on a published tier: sequences across LinkedIn, email, and X, a shared inbox holding every reply the team receives, permissions per member, groups by client, and a version of the product your clients log into under your own brand.
Full disclosure: Meet Alfred is our own solution, so I'll be specific about what it does differently from PhantomBuster.
Here’s how teams at Reuters, Samsung, Oracle, Salesforce, and HSBC use our platform:
From connecting an account to a live campaign, in four steps
The four steps below cover everything between signing up and reading your first replies:
Step 1: Connect LinkedIn and set the ceiling
Setup opens with connecting a LinkedIn profile, and two-factor authentication is handled inside the app.
You then set a daily ceiling on connection requests, and it can run as high as 100.
That's room to safely exceed LinkedIn's usual pace while staying inside safe parameters.
Working Hours takes a time zone and the hours automation is allowed to run, so nothing goes out at 4 AM in your prospect's market.
Pending invitations clear themselves through auto-withdrawal, and the withdrawal activity is reported over time.
➡️ Underneath all of that, our software randomizes the delay on every action and sends from the cloud on a dedicated IP address, so there's nothing to install, no browser session to leave open, and no proxy to source.
Step 2: Decide who hears from you
A campaign needs an audience, and Meet Alfred gives you two ways to build one.
The first draws on activity already visible to you: members of a group, an event's attendee list, a newsletter's subscribers, or the people who reacted to a post.
The second is LinkedIn's own search.
Filters cover keywords, language, location, industry, and job title, sample results appear on screen while you're still setting the search up, and a separate control decides how many profiles the campaign draws in.
Our AI Lead Finder takes a different route again.
All you have to do is describe the prospect in ordinary language (e.g., "CEO in New York with 10-50 employees") and Lead Finder surfaces the matching LinkedIn profiles, then drops them, filtered, straight into an automated outreach campaign.
Both the search and the saved list stay inside Lead Finder, where Basic returns up to 1,000 results, Pro up to 5,000, and Team up to 10,000.
That saved list then shows up as a source option when you build the campaign.
Step 3: Build the sequence and launch it
A sequence in Meet Alfred is an ordered set of actions, each one waiting a set interval before the next fires.
You can build from scratch, or open a pre-built sequence template and rewrite the copy inside it.
For example: view a prospect's profile on day one, follow them on day two, send a connection request with a personalized note on day four, then follow up three days later if nothing has come back.
Dynamic snippets pull the name, title, company, and more into each message, and a library of more than 600 templates covers the standard touchpoints if you'd sooner start from something already written.
Once a sequence performs, save it and share it, and the whole team inherits the play.
Step 4: Work replies as a team
LinkedIn's own inbox gets unwieldy somewhere past a few hundred conversations, and it gets worse with four reps working one list.
Every reply from every rep collects in the Smart Inbox, no matter which channel carried it, and the thread shows the contact's company, role, location, and any notes a colleague has left.
The moment somebody answers, Meet Alfred pauses that contact's campaign, which stops an automated follow-up landing on a live conversation.
Team stats run alongside it, breaking invites sent, invites accepted, profile views, messages, and replies down by member.
Running several accounts without handing over a password
Our impersonation capability puts a manager inside any connected team member's account from their own dashboard, and no login details change hands.
Two routes lead in:
Along the top of the screen, the profile bar names every account you're cleared to switch into, and beside each entry on the Team page there's a Manage User control doing the same job.
Once you're in, the account's own permissions are yours: campaigns get built and launched, integrations get configured, leads get answered in the Smart Inbox, and the activity log opens up.
For an agency, that means one operator covering several client profiles from a single login.
Messaging can stay consistent across them, and whoever owns a relationship keeps it.
Three outreach channels in one sequence, and a social scheduler beside them
A Meet Alfred sequence takes email, X, and InMail steps in the same builder that holds the LinkedIn ones, so a single campaign can cover every channel a prospect might answer on.
Somebody who leaves a connection request untouched for five days can pick up an email on day six.
No export goes between the two, and no second tool needs reconciling afterwards.
Email goes out through a mailbox you already own, connected over SMTP or IMAP. Outlook, G Suite, Gmail, or any other provider speaking those protocols will do.
There are no message credits to buy, and your daily volume is whatever your own provider allows.
Across those channels, Meet Alfred handles:
Coordinated sequences that carry one prospect between LinkedIn, email, and X inside a single workflow.
Personalization at scale through dynamic fields, saved templates, and pacing spread out so messages never land in a clump.
Direct messages to as many as 1,000 X prospects a day, either on their own or beside the LinkedIn and email touches.
Post scheduling for LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and X off one dashboard, plus a recommendation on when your audience is awake and analytics on how each post did.
One reporting view covering opens, clicks, replies, connections made, and conversions, so the channel carrying pipeline is easy to identify.
How is Meet Alfred different from PhantomBuster?
PhantomBuster pulls live data from more than 15 platforms, and on sourcing breadth nothing else on this list comes near it.
I also like the MCP server, which is on every tier and runs a phantom from Claude or ChatGPT by typing the request as a sentence, and the Chrome extension that reveals a verified email and phone number from whichever profile you're already reading.
Unlimited users on every plan is the other thing worth crediting, because headcount never enters the pricing conversation.
That last one is rarer than it should be at any price point.
Here's how PhantomBuster and Meet Alfred compare:
Feature

The AI Lead Finder, whose result ceiling runs from 1,000 on Basic through to 10,000 on Team, plus CSV, LinkedIn and Sales Navigator URLs, first-degree connections, newsletter subscribers, post engagers, event attendees, and group members
What the bill meters
Automation slots, monthly execution hours, email credits, AI credits, and URL finder credits, each with its own ceiling per tier
A flat per-seat rate. No slots, no execution hours, and no credit pools
Account safety
Automations run through your own LinkedIn session with no bought third-party databases, and smart distribution respects fair usage and rate limits across connected accounts
Randomized pacing per action type, daily limits you set yourself, working hours tied to a time zone, pending invitations withdrawn automatically, GDPR and CCPA compliance, end-to-end encryption, and DDoS protection

Cloud on AWS since 2017. No browser extension, no desktop session, and a dedicated IP address per connected account
Conversation management
Phantoms can export inbox threads and the profiles behind them into a spreadsheet. A shared reply view isn't published as part of the platform
Smart Inbox holding LinkedIn messages, InMails, and Sales Navigator threads across every rep. Reply detection, shared reply templates, attachments, and bulk actions included
Team collaboration
Unlimited users on every tier, with multiple LinkedIn accounts connected to one workspace
Impersonation of any connected account, analytics per member, groups organized by client or by campaign, permissions attached to roles, and a team inbox
White label
Not published on the pricing page
On Team from five seats: a custom domain such as app.youragency.com, your colors and logo throughout, and system notifications sent from an address of yours
If I were you, I'd read that table as a question about where the conversation happens, not about who has the better data.
PhantomBuster is built to find people and tell you which ones to speak to first, and it does that across more sources than anything else here.
What it hands off is the talking.
Email sending goes to another vendor, replies come back into LinkedIn one profile at a time, and the monthly figure moves with slots, hours, and credits.
That's the point where one flat seat price covering the sourcing, three channels, and every reply in one place starts to matter.
➡️ Our Team plan carries that collaboration layer at $39 a user, white label opens at five seats with no quote to negotiate, and a tenth seat brings volume discounts, an account manager of your own, migration help, and priority support.
Pricing
Meet Alfred's free trial runs seven days, opens the full feature set, and asks for no credit card.
Three paid tiers follow, and annual billing takes 50% off the list price while quarterly takes 20%:
Basic, from $29/user/month on annual billing: cloud LinkedIn automation across three active campaigns. Lead Finder stops at 1,000 results, and in the box you'll find data exports, notes, tags you set yourself, greetings sent automatically, a template library, the Smart Inbox, and the advanced LinkedIn CRM.
Pro, from $49/user/month on annual billing: nothing caps the campaign count any more, and in come Lead Finder at 5,000 results, attachments, custom personalization snippets, webhooks and Zapier, social post scheduling, CSV campaigns, campaigns built off groups, events, and posts, InMail automation, Sales Navigator support, and multi-channel sequences reaching LinkedIn, email, and X.
Team, from $39/user/month on annual billing: advanced team settings, team inbox management, groups, and a 10,000-result Lead Finder ceiling. Five seats unlocks white label. Ten brings priority support, help with migration and onboarding, an account manager of your own, and discounts on volume.
Pros & Cons
✅ A shared inbox and per-member permissions need no custom quote. Both are on a published tier.
✅ Five seats is where client branding and a domain of your own come in.
✅ One subscription covers three outreach channels and social posting, and there's no proxy contract to arrange.
✅ The seat price is the whole bill, with no execution hours or credit pools to top up.
❌ Seven-day trial only. No free tier underneath.
#2: HeyReach
Best for: Agencies and outbound teams whose connected LinkedIn profiles outnumber the people managing them.
Similar to: Expandi, Sbl.so.
HeyReach counts senders on the invoice, not seats. A teammate or a client can join the workspace without changing what you pay.
Features
Spreading the send across the pool: HeyReach hands one campaign's sending out across the whole pool. Volume then follows how many profiles you can staff, and no single account takes the full weight.
Bringing a list in from elsewhere: HubSpot, RB2B, Clay, Sales Navigator, or anything else able to push a contact record across.
The If Connected split: HeyReach separates people you're already connected to from cold prospects before the sequence decides what to send.
Replies gathered in one place: All connected profiles report their replies into a single view. A manager can take a teammate's thread from there, record an audio reply, and never open LinkedIn itself.
For teams that build: An MCP server, a command line tool, webhooks, and an API, which between them let an AI assistant start campaigns and pull reporting in conversation.
Pricing
Sender count sets the HeyReach price, and quarterly billing removes 10% while annual removes 20%:
Growth, $79 a month: one sender, dedicated residential proxy included.
Agency, $999 a month: white label branding across 25 senders, on proxies you supply.
Unlimited, $2,999 a month: senders without a cap, spread over as many workspaces as you like, again on proxies of your own.
Done for you, custom: the HeyReach team runs the outreach.
Trial: 14 days on Growth across three LinkedIn accounts, no card. The two larger plans open a 30-day trial on request.
There's a discounted early-stage program too, open to companies below $250,000 ARR with fewer than five people.
Pros & Cons
✅ The per-account figure drops the more profiles you connect, which is what draws agencies to the model.
✅ The GTM tooling reaches Clay and n8n, and the HubSpot sync carries HubSpot's own verification.
❌ A G2 review mentions that they wish HeyReach had outbound email too.
❌ Proxies are your responsibility on Agency and Unlimited, though HeyReach offers to help.
#3: Dripify
Best for: Small teams and independent sellers who want a legible drip builder over LinkedIn and email that reports at every step.
Similar to: Waalaxy, We-Connect.
Dripify arranges actions, delays, and conditions in one drag-and-drop panel.
Templates cover the familiar lead generation plays, and nothing about the builder assumes prior experience with automated outreach.
Features
Numbers per action, from Advanced up: Invitations accepted and replies received, reported action by action, which isolates the weak link in a long sequence.
The drag and drop panel: Ten LinkedIn and email steps or more, waits and branching rules dropped in between.
Variables in the copy: More than 20, an icebreaker among them, and a backup phrase for anyone whose profile never mentioned what you wanted to reference.
Finding and verifying addresses: Monthly email-finder credits on every paid plan, a verifier alongside it, and roughly 30 live data points back per lead.
Pricing
Dripify publishes three tiers billed per user, and a custom enterprise plan above them:
Basic, $39 per user per month on annual billing, $59 monthly: LinkedIn protection built in, sequence templates, advanced analytics and reports, live support around the clock, and one drip campaign on restricted daily quotas.
Pro, $59 on annual billing, $79 monthly: webhook integration, CSV export, a dedicated inbox, quotas at their full rate, and no cap on drip campaigns.
Advanced, $79 on annual billing or $99 monthly: LinkedIn protection at the advanced level, management across teams, tagging on leads, analytics per step, evergreen leads, and split testing.
Enterprise, custom: onboarding at the premium level, a named technical contact, and a customer success manager assigned to the account.
Pros & Cons
✅ The entry tier already covers email steps as well as LinkedIn ones.
✅ Nine places to pull leads from. One of them is a LinkedIn post, which refreshes as new people engage.
✅ Approachable for a first-time buyer of outreach software.
❌ Multi-team management starts on Advanced.
❌ One campaign on Basic.
#4: Waalaxy
Best for: Teams and solo operators whose first LinkedIn campaign should be running before the day is out.
Similar to: Dux-Soup, Lemlist.
Waalaxy works as a Chrome extension sitting over LinkedIn. You pick a template, point it at a search result, and the campaign goes out.
No logic to assemble beforehand.
Features
Ninety-nine sequences already assembled: Recruiter Lite, a saved Sales Navigator list, or an ordinary LinkedIn search will each launch one. Follow-ups are built in, and reply detection pulls whoever answers back out.
Emails found, then used: Enrichment credits feed email follow-ups into top-tier campaigns, at a match rate Waalaxy puts above 61%.
Triggering off interest: Reactions and comments get collected on their own, and the same goes for anyone engaging with rival companies or with the loudest accounts in your category.
Two reps, one lead list: Overlap checks keep two reps off one lead. Prospect lists and analytics are shared across the group, and permissions settle who sees what.
Pricing
Every Waalaxy tier is billed per user and separated from the next by its monthly invitation allowance, and committing for longer brings the rate down:
Pro, €19 per user per month: 300 invitations a month, CRM syncing, automatic follow-ups, the template library, and campaigns without a cap.
Advanced, €49 per user per month: chat support, API access, modules for n8n, Zapier, and Make, and the allowance climbing to 800.
Business, €69 per user per month: 500 address-finder credits a month, cold email sequences, and campaigns that cross from LinkedIn into email.
LinkedIn Inbox add-on: billed on its own whichever tier you hold, and the first 500 conversations are free.
Trial: 14 days, no card.
Pros & Cons
✅ Ninety-nine ready sequences mean there's no blank builder to face on day one.
✅ Intent triggers do the list building where a rep would otherwise be copying names across.
✅ Overlap checks keep a lead from hearing from two people at once.
❌ The inbox is a separate add-on.
❌ Multiple G2 reviews mention that they’re not happy with the pricing of Waalaxy.
#5: Expandi
Best for: Buyers who ask what happens to the LinkedIn account before they ask anything else, and who want conditional logic layered on top.
Its Smart Sequences carry if-then rules, so an acceptance, a reply, an opened email, or a like on a post each send the lead somewhere different.
Features
Smart Sequences: Post engagement, an opened email, a profile visit, a reply, or an acceptance each split the path, which lets one campaign route two prospects down completely different roads.
Protection in the architecture: Every action type draws from a randomized daily range, new profiles ramp up through a warm-up period, each account holds a regional IP, and the sending happens in the cloud.
A softer opening: Profile views and post interactions get scheduled ahead of the first message. By the time the invitation lands, the prospect has already seen the name.
Visual personalization: Hyperise for dynamic images and GIFs, Sendspark for video, both charged as add-ons.
Pricing
Expandi publishes one plan and quotes agencies directly:
Business, $79 per month, with two months waived on annual billing: blacklisting, scheduling, campaign prioritization, step-by-step statistics, the builder, multichannel outreach with email follow-ups, unlimited campaigns, and the protection layer in full.
Agency, quoted from ten seats: the platform under your brand, a customer success manager of your own, template sharing, client-facing reports, campaign management from one place, and roles with permissions.
Trial: seven days, free.
Pros & Cons
✅ A regional IP and an automatic warm-up period come with every connected profile.
✅ Branching keys off prospect behaviour and not simply elapsed time, which is the sharpest part of the product.
✅ Per-step statistics pinpoint the action losing people.
❌ Imagery and video personalization carry extra charges.
❌ One published plan, at $79.
#6: We-Connect
Best for: Recruiters and small sales teams whose email steps should follow what a contact did on LinkedIn, and who want AI on both the drafting and the answering.
Similar to: Dripify, Expandi.
LinkedIn automation and email sequencing run together at We-Connect, and AI works both directions of the exchange: drafting what leaves, then dealing with what returns, either under your sign-off or without it.
Features
AI Assist, and replies handled for you: Profile data feeds the drafting of follow-ups, connection notes, and icebreakers. Anything inbound gets answered autonomously, or in co-pilot mode if you want the last word.
Lead Engine: A visual builder still in beta. We-Connect scores the contact on their behaviour, then picks where they go next.
Email that waits for a LinkedIn signal: What a contact does on LinkedIn triggers the email step. Copy gets split tested, and bounces, clicks, and opens are all reported back.
Everything from an invite to an InMail: The whole LinkedIn action set is here, and each message is populated out of the contact's own profile before it goes.
Pricing
We-Connect prices per seat, annual billing lowers the rate, and agencies get a direct quote:
Growth, $49 per seat per month on annual billing: uncapped LinkedIn smart campaigns, the Lead Engine, spintax and icebreakers through AI Assist, automated replies, and enrichment on contacts.
Professional, $59 per seat per month on annual billing: campaigns across more than one channel, email automation triggered by behaviour, CRM integrations running natively, and performance tracking on the email side.
Scale, $79 per seat per month on annual billing: flagged as coming soon. Intent-signal capture, four intent agents at most, campaigns across several senders, and Post Remix.
Agency, custom from ten seats: help with custom development, training on demand, a dedicated customer success manager, and ten LinkedIn accounts or more on one dashboard.
Trial: two weeks, and no credit card. Post Remix is priced on its own from an introductory $16/month/seat.
Pros & Cons
✅ Few products between $50 and $60 will answer a message without asking you first.
✅ Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive, and Zoho sync natively from Professional, and campaign notifications reach Slack.
✅ From Professional upward, an email lands because of something the contact did on LinkedIn.
✅ The agency plan runs ten client accounts and up, success manager attached.
❌ Post scheduling is a paid add-on.
❌ Four tools in this comparison start cheaper than $49.
#7: Dux-Soup
Best for: Solo operators and lean teams running LinkedIn drips on the smallest monthly outlay here, from a browser tab or from the cloud.
Similar to: Waalaxy.
Three products share the Dux-Soup name, and they run one of two ways.
One is a browser extension working off whichever account you already hold, whether that's Sales Navigator, Recruiter, or an ordinary LinkedIn login.
The other is fully cloud-hosted, so campaigns carry on with the machine switched off.
Features
Drip campaigns up to 12 actions: Post likes, profile visits, messaging, connecting, InMail, following, and endorsing, ordered by drag and drop with a delay of your choosing between each.
Response detection: Somebody answers, they leave the flow, and the follow-ups stop.
AI personalization: Each message is written against the profile it's going to, and Turbo adds an AI assistant for handling responses.
Dux-Dash: Contact management, one central inbox, a dashboard for working leads, and campaign statistics. Native integrations send those leads on to your CRM.
Pricing
Dux-Soup charges per user, takes 25% off annual billing, and sells a separate agency licence:
Pro Dux, €12.99 monthly, €9.92 on annual billing: invitations with personalization, messages to people you're already connected to, post liking, visits and tags on profiles, and CSV export.
Turbo Dux, €49 monthly, €36.25 on annual billing: drips without a cap, personalization by AI, statistics per campaign, the lead dashboard, and CRM integrations.
Cloud Dux, €88 monthly, €65.83 on annual billing: the hosted edition, monitored and running at all hours.
Cloud Agency, €330 per month: unlimited LinkedIn accounts on one dashboard, from five client seats upward.
Trial: 14 days across the Turbo feature set.
Pros & Cons
✅ Under €10 a month on annual billing, the lowest entry price on this list.
✅ The browser editions run off the LinkedIn account you already own, so no outside party handles the login and the history remains in LinkedIn.
Best for: Outbound teams that want calling and X available next to LinkedIn and email, on a bill counting sending profiles and not headcount.
Similar to: Lemlist, HeyReach.
An identity in La Growth Machine means a profile that actively runs campaigns, and identities are what the invoice measures.
Somebody whose only job is working the replies joins at no cost.
Features
Enrichment nobody bills you twice for: Profile data and verified emails come with a monthly allowance on every plan, pulled through a waterfall of providers.
One view over two channels: LinkedIn and email replies pool in one view, filtered by identity or by campaign.
Status labels that travel: Set one inside a thread and it carries through to HubSpot or Pipedrive.
Branching, and what gets tested against what: A lead's behaviour picks their next step, and the testing covers whether an invitation carries a note, how the copy reads, and which subject line goes out.
LinkedIn voice messages: A single recording reaches everyone, opened by a line the AI writes fresh for each prospect.
Pricing
La Growth Machine charges per identity per month and waives two months on annual billing:
Basic, $60 per identity: three team members, up to three identities, one sending address, 250 enriched leads a month, and LinkedIn with email.
Pro, $110 per identity: 25 free team members, social warming, six concurrent campaigns, five rotating sending addresses, an enrichment allowance of 400, and calling.
Ultimate, $165 per identity: two-way sync with HubSpot or Pipedrive, campaigns and team members uncapped, ten sending addresses, 1,000 enriched leads, and X.
Agency, custom: six identities is the minimum before they'll quote.
A free trial that runs for 14 days.
Pros & Cons
✅ Calls on Pro and X on Ultimate put four channels into a single flow.
✅ Lead data never turns up as a separate bill, because the enrichment allowance is already in the plan.
✅ Only sending profiles are charged, which means a reply handler joins for free.
Best for: Senders whose bigger problem is the spam folder and not the copy, and who want a dialer and WhatsApp inside the sequence.
Similar to: La Growth Machine, Waalaxy.
One Lemlist sequence can carry a prospect from email to a LinkedIn invitation, then a phone call, then WhatsApp or SMS.
Which of those any single lead actually gets depends on what they did with the last one.
Features
Deliverability Hub: DNS checks, limit management, rotation between inboxes, and warm-up. Warnings reach you early enough to save the mailbox.
What the agents take off your desk: Account research and data cleaning fall to lemAgent, while separate agents track site visits, funding, role changes, and hiring.
What a single flow can reach: SMS, WhatsApp, phone, LinkedIn, and email. The LinkedIn step can carry a voice note.
The record set behind Lemlist: More than 650 million records. Address and phone lookup run over the top, metered by credit.
Pricing
Lemlist runs three paid plans and takes 20% off yearly billing:
Email, $69 at list or $55 on yearly billing: no ceiling on users or on email senders, 50,000 messages a month, plus the Deliverability Hub and the contact database.
Multichannel, $109 at list or $87 per user on yearly billing: LinkedIn automation with five senders apiece, the dialer built in, SMS, messages without a ceiling, and WhatsApp charged on top.
Enterprise, custom: priority support, a named account manager, roles and permissions built to order, and single sign-on.
Credits: a verified address costs five, a phone number 20, and intent signals start at 20 each.
Trial: two weeks, free.
Pros & Cons
✅ Inbox placement needs no second subscription. Warm-up and domain monitoring ship with the platform.
✅ In-app calling and WhatsApp barely appear elsewhere here, and both share a sequence with LinkedIn.
✅ Neither users nor email senders are capped on the entry plan.
❌ Enrichment and intent signals draw on credits.
❌ There's a bit of a learning curve to get the most out of all the features when you first start, according to a G2 review.
#10: Sbl.so
Best for: Founders and lean teams with no SDR to delegate to, who want the sending volume happening somewhere other than their personal profile.
Similar to: HeyReach, Lemlist.
Think of Sbl.so as an AI sales rep working LinkedIn on your behalf.
You describe the buyer you're after.
Sbl.so reads buying signals to build the list, opens conversations, handles what comes back, and drops meetings into your calendar.
Features
Who actually answers: Replies in more than 100 languages, a voice message cloned from your own, and a handover to a person once the lead warms up.
A list that rebuilds itself: Funding news, job moves, profile activity, and engagement with a competitor's posts refresh the list daily, every name scored against the buyer you described.
What ships alongside: One team inbox, calendar booking, live analytics, uncapped workspaces, and a mobile app. Connections run out to Make, n8n, Zapier, Slack, Pipedrive, Salesforce, and HubSpot.
Profiles Sbl.so supplies: Accounts come pre-warmed, and volume spreads so no one profile carries a campaign.
Pricing
Sbl.so charges by outreach seat, where a seat means one LinkedIn or WhatsApp account, and additional seats cost $39 a month:
Starter, $99 per month: two outreach seats, priority support, two team members, workspaces without a cap, unlimited Sales Navigator extraction, AI chat replies across more than 100 languages, signals off the comments and reactions on your own posts, and 1,000 ICP-matched leads a month.
Pro, $189 per month: four outreach seats and ten team members, 2,000 premium leads monthly, premium signals across job changes, funding, and competitor activity, rich media carrying an AI clone of your voice, a built-in CRM you can export from, and webhooks you define.
Elite, $997 per month: invite-only and marked coming soon. Seats scale to the account, 500 hyper-curated LinkedIn leads come with it, and every prospect gets a journey built for them.
Enterprise, custom: shaped around a compliance requirement, a volume level, or a specific workflow.
Trial: free until the first of these arrives, whichever comes soonest: a booked meeting, three positive replies, or 300 outreaches. No card needed.
Pros & Cons
✅ Campaign volume never touches your personal account, since the sending runs on supplied profiles.
✅ Buying signals assemble the list, and it stays current day to day without you rebuilding it.
✅ A conversation can reach a booked meeting without a human touching it, which suits a founder selling alone.
❌ Two live channels today: LinkedIn and WhatsApp.
❌ Email automation is on the roadmap.

PhantomBuster is a strong place to build a list, and its free trial tier costs nothing to point at your own market.
What tends to prompt the search for something else is what happens once the list exists.
An email tool gets added for the sending, replies come back into LinkedIn one profile at a time, and the monthly figure moves with slots, execution hours, and credits.
At Meet Alfred, that layer is on the same subscription as the outreach: one Smart Inbox across every rep, impersonation with no shared passwords, permissions and groups by client, and the whole platform under your own brand from five seats.
Here's what a week looks like with Meet Alfred running:
Prospects hear from you on LinkedIn, by email, and on X inside one campaign, and the follow-ups pace themselves inside limits you set while your calendar fills with something else.
Lists come out of the AI Lead Finder in the same product that builds the campaign, so there's no sourcing contract to sign and no email credits ticking down.
One inbox holds the replies from all of your reps, a campaign stops the moment its prospect answers, and a manager covers any account without borrowing a login.
Clients read their reporting under your logo and your domain, beside a scheduler keeping your posts live across LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and X.
➡️ Our seven-day trial opens every feature and asks for no card, and if you'd sooner be shown around first, book a demo and someone from our team will take you through it.
