Compared at the same emails a day, each vendor at its own published emails per mailbox a day: a cheap mailbox that sends 5 a day costs more per email than one that sends 25. Every option at 2,500 a day · 55,000 a month (22 sending days). Mission Inbox and its alternatives at the same mailbox count. Mailboxes = emails a day ÷ each vendor's emails per mailbox a day; monthly list prices on monthly billing, with the cheapest plan of the sequencer named in each row that covers the volume (Instantly unless the vendor's mailboxes need another; both include warmup). Domains at each vendor's published price spread over 12 months; "from" means a domain price is not published. A mailbox-only vendor cannot send campaigns on its own, so its total is the full sending setup: its mailboxes, domains and the sequencer plan that covers the volume. Instantly is the reference sequencer, on its published plans for the emails and new contacts a month (emails ÷ 3); Smartlead where Instantly publishes no plan; Mailforge with Salesforge, because its mailboxes cannot be warmed in Instantly. The mailbox line is listed on its own in every cell.

Outreach2day: 25 cold emails per mailbox a day, 5 mailboxes per domain, .com domains at $13 a year (1,000 mailboxes and 200 domains at 25,000 a day; 40,000 and 8,000 at 1,000,000). Instantly and Smartlead with the accounts they sell, at the published plan for the volume; mailbox vendors at their own emails-per-mailbox limit with their domains and the Instantly (Mailforge: Salesforge) plan for the volume. A month is 22 sending days, so emails a month = emails a day × 22. Where a vendor publishes no price at that size the cell says so and the chart leaves it out. At this size the main table's flat $2.50 a Maildoso mailbox gives way to its published packs.

- Maildoso above 10,000 mailboxes: Above 10,000 mailboxes Maildoso applies "special conditions" through its sales team. source (opens the vendor's page in a new tab)
- InboxKit above 500 mailboxes: InboxKit shows its $3 price up to 500 mailboxes and offers custom pricing for very large deployments. source (opens the vendor's page in a new tab)
- Instantly at 25,000 a day: Light Speed + 4 Outbound add-ons. 550,000 emails and about 183,300 contacts; four add-ons give 1,000,000 emails and 200,000 contacts (Hypergrowth + 7 add-ons is also $706) source (opens the vendor's page in a new tab)
- Instantly at 50,000 a day: Light Speed + 11 Outbound add-ons. About 366,700 contacts a month; 11 add-ons give 375,000 contacts and 1,875,000 emails source (opens the vendor's page in a new tab)

Switching
Moving from Mission Inbox to Outreach2day
Keep your sequencer
Connect Instantly or Smartlead in Outreach2day with an API key and the warm mailboxes are added to your account; other tools take a CSV in their import format, or SMTP/IMAP logins. How the export works
Or move the campaigns
Our sequencer runs campaigns with steps, a send schedule, stop on reply and one inbox for replies; import the contacts as a CSV and recreate the steps. The mailbox price stays $2.50.
Warmup and the overlap
New mailboxes warm for 14 days before cold email, and warmup keeps running after that. Keep the Mission Inbox mailboxes sending during those two weeks, then shift the volume and cancel Mission Inbox for the end of its billing period.
Mission Inbox renews every 30 days without proration and bills the month's peak mailbox count; lower the count before the renewal date. Usage up to the end of the paid cycle is billed after you cancel, and usage charges are never refunded.

Choosing
Why Mission Inbox buyers look elsewhere
The bill is the first reason. It grows with mailboxes, with every send over the allowance, warmup emails included, and with $2 a mailbox for its warmup, and it is billed in arrears on the month's peak count. The second is the IPs: marketing pages promise dedicated IPs, while the terms describe shared IP infrastructure.
The third is the terms: plan fees refundable only within 2 days of renewal, usage never, and a strict chargeback clause. Plans, rates and terms with sources are in the Mission Inbox review.
If sending volume is the reason
At high volume, a charge per email adds up: 25,000 cold emails a day is about 550,000 a month, $540 in sends alone on Mission Inbox before warmup. Outreach2day charges per mailbox only, $0.50 from 1,000 mailboxes, with warmup and our sequencer included, and our mailboxes run on our own infrastructure and land in the inbox. Larger volumes go on the Enterprise plan, on a call.
Outreach2day

- You want a flat price per mailbox with nothing charged per email
- You run 1,000+ mailboxes: $0.50 each, Enterprise prices on a call
- You keep Instantly or Smartlead: our mailboxes sync by API key

It does not fit if
- You need fewer than 12 mailboxes: the minimum order is 12
- You need transactional email through an API
