AiSDR vs Staffing Engine

Same facts, side by side: starting price, free tier, MCP, API and what each one is actually built for.

Starting price

AiSDR

$1.50/person prospected

AI SDR that prospects on signals, runs email and LinkedIn, and books meetings (Ami). Pay as you go is $1.50 per person prospected; no free trial.

Where AiSDR fits

Desks that live in Teams or Slack and will claim leads there
Operators who want 24/7 candidate and client chat on SMS or email

Where they pull apart

AiSDR

Stands out: A public $1.50 per person pay-as-you-go plan with HubSpot, Salesforce, Close, Clay and Calendly named, and cancel-anytime terms.

Watch out: Team plans for 1,000+ people a month are priced on volume through sales. No free trial is named. Per-campaign managed service is extra.

Not the right fit for

People who need a $40 sequencer
Teams that insist on a free trial
Enterprises that want a fully managed $2,500 desk on day one without testing pay as you go

Staffing Engine

Stands out: Leads import, enrich, and route by branch, skill, location, source, or team, with click-to-claim in Microsoft Teams or Slack so speed-to-lead is visible.

Watch out: There is no public seat or conversation price. Value depends on ATS, SMS, and calendar integrations being live. This is conversion of existing leads, not a net-new job-lead marketplace.

Not the right fit for

In-house TA without an agency lead queue
Buyers who need a published per-conversation rate
