Pitchbox covers outreach in one place, from finding sites and AI-drafted pitches to follow-ups and checks on the links you win. Every plan is a one-year commitment from $210 a month on yearly billing, Pro stops at 2 users and 2 mailboxes, and there's no trial without booking a demo first. - **Value for money: D.** Pro is $210 a month billed yearly ($300 monthly) for 2 users, and every plan is a one-year commitment, so one person pays at least $2,520 a year. That's in this category's dearest tenth. A team of five needs Advanced at $420, about $84 a head. - **Free plan and trial: D.** No free plan and no self-serve trial. Pitchbox offers a trial only after a demo with one of its product specialists, and the pricing page doesn't say how long it lasts. - **Features: B.** Prospecting by topic or competitor, AI-written pitches and replies, follow-up sequences, a CRM for link partners, and checks that won links stay live and indexed. It covers the whole job. Email rotation, Slack and the API wait on Advanced. - **Ease of use: C.** No rating on record. You connect mailboxes and set up campaigns and sequences, and Pitchbox charges $2,000 to $4,000 for expert onboarding on monthly billing, which tells you something. - **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web only, with no desktop or phone app. It pulls metrics from Ahrefs, Semrush, Moz and Majestic, sends through Gmail and Microsoft 365, and works with Slack and Zapier.

That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 25 of the 50 other link building tools grade higher. It costs $2,520 a year. - You could make: Link outreach and reports: an app builder makes these well. - You could not: Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change. - You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself. - You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
