Where they pull apart

lemlist

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.

Not the right fit for

Agencies that only need unlimited mailboxes
Buyers who want calls as a first-class channel

Mailgent

Stands out: LinkedIn and email share a single timeline and Unibox, so the thread is one conversation rather than two tools.

Watch out: $79/mo is a sending seat, not infra mailboxes. Voice notes and AI replies are the differentiator. Dedicated IPs still live elsewhere.

Not the right fit for

Teams that only need Gmail mail merge
Agencies that want unlimited infra mailboxes on Smartlead
