What each one does differently

Woodpecker

$35/mo 14 day free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: Standalone cold email if you do not want to send from Gmail.

Stands out: Unlimited team members and mailboxes at no extra cost, since billing is set by how many prospects you contact.

Watch out: LinkedIn costs $29/mo per connected account, and the API, webhooks, MCP and CLI sit in a $20/mo integrations add-on.

Best for

  • SDR teams sending cold email at steady volume
  • Agencies adding many mailboxes and users
  • Teams connecting outreach to Clay or a CRM

lemlist

$55/mo 14 day free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: Email and LinkedIn sequences in one tool.

Stands out: Creative personalization plus email and LinkedIn in one sequence, with MCP.

Watch out: Higher tiers at $69, $87 and $109 are close to the entry plan, so check which one covers your channels.

Best for

  • Outbound teams that need more than plain-text volume
  • Desks mixing email and LinkedIn
  • Buyers who want a 14-day trial

Instantly

$47/mo Free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: Cold email with many mailboxes and inbox rotation.

Stands out: Warmup, unibox, and volume send with hosted MCP and a public API, plus an AI Recruiting Agent that finds candidates from a job link and emails them.

Watch out: Deliverability still depends on your domains and inboxes, not the tool alone.

Best for

  • Outbound recruiting teams sending at volume
  • Agencies running many sending accounts
  • Desks that need warmup plus a unibox

Mailshake

$29/mo

Why it comes up: Sales engagement with email and phone steps.

Stands out: Straightforward drips without a mailbox-farm product to manage.

Watch out: No free trial. The vendor takes payment up front.

Best for

  • Small sales or recruiting teams sending drips
  • Agencies that want simple campaigns, not infrastructure
  • Buyers who will bring their own mailbox
