Friction meter
Best forSmall agencies, consultancies and freelancers sending branded proposals without design skills; Sales teams that want to see who opened a proposal, which sections they read and for how long; Businesses that want e-signature, payment collection and client onboarding inside one document flowSMB and mid-market marketing teams that want email, SMS and WhatsApp automation in one platform; Teams upgrading from a basic email tool to automation plus a light CRM and sales engagement; Businesses that want AI-assisted campaign building, segmentation and predictive sending; Companies needing 1,000+ integrations, including Salesforce, Slack, Gmail and Outlook; Organizations that prefer self-serve setup with no implementation fee and included migration help
Not forEnterprises needing AI-assisted drafting, CPQ logic or formal RFP/RFI management; Organisations that require the vendor itself to hold ISO 27001, SOC 2 or FedRAMP certification; Very high-volume senders on a tight budget — Starter is capped at one seat and 10 sends a monthEnterprises that require FedRAMP or government-grade authorizations; Buyers who want heavy, hands-on implementation services from the vendor; Very large contact lists on tight budgets, since pricing scales with contact tiers per plan; Teams needing a full-depth sales CRM rather than email-first automation with CRM add-ons
