Why Outreach2day
Why teams pick Outreach2day over Instantly
One bill instead of two
No Instantly sending plan on top. 100 mailboxes cost $250 a month with warm-up and sending, $4,164 a year less than Instantly's accounts plus Hypergrowth.
Mailboxes you can take with you
Instantly's done-for-you accounts work only inside Instantly, and Instantly keeps the domains. Our domains are registered to you, and the mailboxes export to 14 tools.
Placement tests without a second plan
Instantly sells placement tests and blacklist monitoring as a separate plan from $47 a month. Our Google and Outlook placement tests come with the mailboxes.
Instantly wins if you need Google accounts or a B2B lead database in the same tool.

The details
What you pay each month
Instantly bills two things: an Outreach plan by email volume ($47, $97 or $358 a month) and each account ($5 for a done-for-you Google account, $10 pre-warmed, $4 AirMail). Warm-up is in the plan.
We bill one thing: $2.50 per mailbox, with warm-up and the sending engine inside. At 25 mailboxes that is $62.50 against $222. At 400, $1,000 against $2,184.
Domains are extra with both: $15 a year at Instantly, $13 for a .com with us.
Who owns the mailboxes and domains
Instantly's help center says done-for-you accounts are for use inside Instantly only, and Instantly keeps domain ownership and admin access. Pre-warmed accounts work the same way.
Domains bought in our app are registered with your details. Send from our engine, sync the mailboxes to Instantly or Smartlead with an API key, or export them as CSV to 14 tools.
