Growbots vs Reply.io (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Growbots if

• Fits if you want email sequences and a lead database in one tool
• Works for someone who wants to start free and see the basics first

Look elsewhere if

• Watch out: $29 and $39 don't say whether that's per month or per year
• Pricey if you need many leads, since each costs credits from $0.13
• Tight if you stay on Freemium: 3 sequences and 20 emails per inbox a day
• Skip it if you want the Concierge service priced up front, as no price is published

Pick Reply.io if

• Fits if one sequence has to cover email, LinkedIn, calls and WhatsApp
• Works for developers wiring outreach into their own tools through the API, MCP server or command line

Look elsewhere if

• Pricey if a whole team wants LinkedIn and calls, as Multichannel is $89 a user a month billed annually
• Tight if you contact lots of new people each month, as usage is metered by active contacts
• Watch out: on Email Volume, LinkedIn is $69 a month per account and calls and SMS $29 per account
• Watch out: contact searches and validation use credits, and 2,500 more a month cost $219
• Skip it if you need ready-made CRM integrations, as n8n is the only one named on record
