Why people look past Emailchaser

Starter is 5,000 emails and 1,000 contacts. Done-for-you mailboxes are $6/mailbox/mo plus setup.

What we noted

  • Starter capped at 5,000 emails/mo
  • Vendor mailboxes extra at $6/mo
  • Email-first, not a LinkedIn sequencer

Not the right fit for

  • Senders who need LinkedIn steps in the same sequencer
  • Teams that will blow Starter's 5,000-email cap

Worth keeping in mind: Unlimited email accounts on every plan, plus a hosted MCP server with 95 tools for Claude, ChatGPT, and Codex.
