Why people look past Growbots

Credits never roll over. One credit is one new prospect from the Growbots database.

What we noted

Credits reset each month
Prospect credits are extra from $0.13
Not a LinkedIn automation suite

Not the right fit for

High-volume senders who need credits to stack month to month
Teams that only want a mailbox host, not a database

Worth keeping in mind: A real free plan plus Starter outreach from $29, with a built-in 180M-plus prospect database.

Instantly

$47/mo Free trial MCP API

Agencies running many sending accounts
Desks that need warmup plus a unibox
