Short answer

Why teams pick Outreach2day over Instantly

  1. One bill for mailboxes and sending

    2,500 cold emails a day with warmup and sending cost $150 a month, $5,364 a year less than Instantly's accounts plus Hypergrowth

  2. Mailboxes you can take with you

    Instantly's done-for-you accounts work only inside Instantly, and Instantly keeps the domains; ours are registered to you, and the mailboxes export to 14 tools

  3. Placement tests in the same 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 also sells Google accounts and a B2B lead database. Our mailboxes are SMTP/IMAP, and they sync to Instantly if you keep it as your sender.

How we count: every vendor at the same emails a day, each at its own published emails per mailbox a day (ours 25, Premium Inboxes 15, Maildoso 15, Mailforge 30, InboxKit 40), so a cheap mailbox that sends fewer emails needs more mailboxes. A month is 22 sending days, so emails a month = emails a day × 22. List prices on monthly billing, in USD, excluding domains, taxes and discounts. 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 on comparison pages: $2.50 a mailbox up to 99, $1.50 from 100, $0.50 from 1,000.

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.

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). Warmup is in the plan.

We bill one thing per mailbox: $2.50, $1.50 from 100 and $0.50 from 1,000, with warmup and the sequencer inside. At 625 cold emails a day that is $62.50 against $222. At 10,000, $600 against $2,184.

Domains are extra with both: $15 a year at Instantly, $13 for a .com with us. Other sequencers and mailbox vendors are priced the same way in Instantly alternatives.

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 own sequencer, sync the mailboxes to Instantly or Smartlead with an API key, or export them as CSV to 14 tools.

Keep Instantly, or move off it

  1. Create mailboxes in Outreach2day on new domains; DNS is set automatically

  3. Keep Instantly as your sender: connect it with an API key and the mailboxes appear in your Instantly account

  5. Keep the old accounts sending until the new ones reach full volume on day 14; Instantly's done-for-you domains stay with Instantly

FAQ

Instantly vs Outreach2day: questions

Can I use Outreach2day mailboxes inside Instantly?

Yes. Connect Instantly with an API key and we add the mailboxes to your Instantly account. Warmup keeps running on our side.

Is Outreach2day cheaper than Instantly?

Yes, for the full setup: $150 against $597 a month at 2,500 cold emails a day (done-for-you Google accounts plus Hypergrowth). If you keep an Instantly plan anyway, compare $2.50 ($1.50 from 100) with $5 per mailbox.

Are Outreach2day mailboxes Google accounts?

No. They are SMTP/IMAP mailboxes on your domains, on our own infrastructure, and they land in the inbox. Instantly and Smartlead connect to them over SMTP and IMAP.

Can I move Instantly done-for-you accounts to Outreach2day?

No. Instantly says those accounts work only inside Instantly and it keeps the domains. Set up new domains with us and warm them up for 14 days.
