Where they pull apart

Artisan

Stands out: Ava as an AI employee for outbound (HubSpot, Salesforce, Slack named), sold like headcount, not like Instantly.

Watch out: Pricing is not published. Confirm the current credit pack on a demo before you budget.

Not the right fit for

People who need a $29 sequencer
Teams that refuse autonomous outbound
Buyers who need a published price today

Regie.ai

Stands out: Empty enrichment is free. Credits are spent on research, message drafts, contact enrichment that finds data, and dialing. You send from connected Gmail or Outlook.

Watch out: Pro is built for one person filling pipeline. Team workspaces, shared agents, custom CRM sync, and SOC 2 sit on a custom Enterprise card. Credits do not roll over.

Not the right fit for

Large SDR floors that need shared agents and custom CRM sync on day one
Teams that will not connect a work mailbox to send

Pros and cons

Artisan

Full-cycle AI BDR rather than a sequencer with a writer
HubSpot, Salesforce, Slack named
Sold as headcount replacement, which is the honest frame

No published pricing grid
Credits and mailboxes will stack on top of $600
Not a cheap Instantly alternative

Regie.ai

Free 250-credit start with no credit card
Pro prints $49/mo with 5,000 monthly credits
Empty enrichment does not burn credits

Pro is a single-person plan, not a shared team workspace
Credits do not roll over month to month
Enterprise security, shared agents, and custom CRM sync are quoted
