An Instantly alternative without a contact limit

If you have hit the point where you cannot start a new campaign until you upgrade - not because you send more, but because your old campaigns already used the contact allowance - this page is about exactly that.

Pricing
$0

Three plans. All of them free.

No trial timer, no card.

Per mailbox
$0

Up to three.

Per contact
$0

Up to 5,000.

Per email sent
$0

Up to 90 a day.

Ten campaigns running at once. Need more room, write to us.

Warm-up and address verification are paid add-ons, switched on by request for accounts topped up $100+ in a month - neither is needed to run a campaign.

What the limit actually is

On Instantly the contact allowance is counted for the lifetime of the account: 1,000 on Growth, 25,000 on Hypergrowth. It is not a monthly quota that resets. Campaigns you finished a year ago still occupy it, so eventually you are paying to delete history or paying for the next tier. That is a charge for storage, not for sending.

What we do instead

We do not count contacts. Import fifty thousand rows if that is what you have; the practical ceiling is disk space. What we do limit is messages per day, because that is the number that protects your sending reputation - and it is the same limit a careful sender would set themselves.

What you would give up

Instantly has a lead database with hundreds of millions of contacts and its own warm-up network. We have neither, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. If buying leads inside the tool is the reason you use it, we are not the swap.

What you actually get

01

One inbox

Every reply, from every mailbox, in one list.

02

A real pipeline

What the system knows, and what you decide, kept apart.

03

Sequences that stop

Checked for a reply right before each send.

04

Numbers that mean something

Reply rate first, not opens.

What we don't have

  • No lead database - you bring your own contacts.
  • No warm-up network of our own - it's an outside provider.
  • Telegram and WhatsApp Business aren't live yet. Email is.
Do I have to delete old campaigns to start a new one?

No. Old campaigns and their contacts stay; they do not consume anything you would otherwise use.

Is there any cap at all?

A daily send ceiling per workspace, on top of the per-mailbox daily limit. It exists to stop one bad list burning every connected domain at once, and it can be raised.

Can I import my existing Instantly export?

Yes. Import a CSV with any columns; you map them once and unmapped columns are kept as custom fields you can use as variables.
