Mailgent from $79/mo

Closest alternatives

The short answer

HeyReach : HeyReach is multi-account LinkedIn from $79/sender/mo, LinkedIn-only versus Mailgent's email-plus-Unibox. From $64/sender/mo
Expandi : Expandi is cloud LinkedIn from $99/mo, without Mailgent's combined email timeline. From $79/mo
lemlist : Lemlist is multichannel from $55/mo with creative personalization, a lower published floor. From $55/mo
Waalaxy : Waalaxy is Chrome LinkedIn plus email from $16/user/mo, cheaper and extension-based rather than a $79 cloud Unibox. From €19/user/mo

Why people look past Mailgent

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

What we noted

Not a dedicated-IP mailbox provider
Live sender and AI-reply caps need a pricing-page check
Overlap with Lemlist and Expandi on the same motion

Not the right fit for

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

Worth keeping in mind: LinkedIn and email share a single timeline and Unibox, so the thread is one conversation rather than two tools.

What each one does differently

HeyReach

$64/sender/mo Free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: HeyReach is multi-account LinkedIn from $79/sender/mo, LinkedIn-only versus Mailgent's email-plus-Unibox.

Stands out: Agency and Unlimited plans cover 25-plus or unlimited LinkedIn senders for one flat monthly fee.

Watch out: Growth is priced per sender. The next plan, Agency, starts at $999/mo for 25 senders, so there is a big jump between tiers.

Best for

Agencies running many LinkedIn accounts
Sales teams using Clay or n8n workflows
Teams driving outreach from Claude via MCP

Expandi

$79/mo Free trial

Why it comes up: Expandi is cloud LinkedIn from $99/mo, without Mailgent's combined email timeline.

Stands out: Cloud LinkedIn (not Chrome) with a 7-day trial: the grown-up Waalaxy alternative agencies actually demo.

Watch out: Annual billing is $79; monthly is $99. More accounts cost more. LinkedIn will still cap you.

Best for

Agencies running multi-account LinkedIn outbound
Teams that refuse a Chrome bot
Buyers who want a 7-day trial

lemlist

$55/mo 14 day free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: Lemlist is multichannel from $55/mo with creative personalization, a lower published floor.

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

Watch out: Multichannel costs $87/mo billed annually, or $109 monthly, so check which plan 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

Waalaxy

€19/user/mo Free trial

Why it comes up: Waalaxy is Chrome LinkedIn plus email from $16/user/mo, cheaper and extension-based rather than a $79 cloud Unibox.

Stands out: A public €19 Chrome LinkedIn seat with email (HubSpot, Pipedrive, Zapier, Make, n8n, Salesforce named), and one of the cheapest entry seats in the category.

Watch out: Pro is €19, Advanced €49, Business €69 billed monthly. Only Business carries cold email sequences and 500 finder credits; Pro and Advanced get 25 a month, which makes them LinkedIn-only in practice. The LinkedIn Inbox is a paid add-on at €20/month, and LinkedIn automation remains a ToS risk.

Best for

SDRs running LinkedIn plus email from Chrome
HubSpot or Pipedrive shops
Teams that want a 14-day trial
