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.

How we count: 550 cold emails per mailbox a month (25 a day on 22 working days), the same for every vendor. List prices on monthly billing, in USD, without domains, taxes or discounts. A vendor that does not sell sending gets the cheapest Instantly plan that covers the volume.

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.

  3. Keep Instantly as your sender: connect it with an API key and the mailboxes appear in your Instantly account.
  4. Or send from our engine: rebuild the sequences and import the lead list.
  5. Keep the old accounts sending until the new ones reach full volume on day 21. Instantly's done-for-you domains stay with Instantly.
