Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.0
GPA, above 1 of the 20 other cold outreach tools we grade
Salesloft is a revenue platform for sales teams, built around Cadence, which runs multi-channel sequences of email, calls and social touches with templates, automation rules and a built-in dialer. Around it sit conversation intelligence, deal management, a daily task feed called Rhythm, and Clari Forecast for revenue leaders. AI agents research accounts, find buyers and draft emails, and every product is sold through sales.
To get you started, here are 7 things to know about Salesloft, taken from its own pages and our grades.
Like Outreach, it's sold only through sales, with no price or trial on record.
- 1
Best for sales teams wanting cadences and forecasts together
AI agents research accounts and draft emails.
- 2
It runs on 2 platforms
Web and iOS.
- 3
Cadences
Multi-channel sequences of email, call and social steps, sortable by channel, time zone and account, with automation rules, templates and snippets.
- 4
AI agents
Account agents research companies and draft personalized emails, and the Buyer Identification Agent finds the right people to contact.
- 5
Dialer and texting
Call or text buyers from Salesloft's own dialer with every interaction logged, or connect a third-party dialer instead.
- 6
A 2.0 GPA, above 1 of 20
That is against the other cold outreach tools we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 7
Keep it
To replace Salesloft you would be making newsletters sent to thousands of people that still reach the inbox. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

The report card
Best for sales teams wanting cadences and forecasts together
Salesloft is a sales platform built around Cadence, its multi-step sequences of email, calls and social touches, with a dialer, call recording, deals and Clari Forecast around it. AI agents research accounts and draft emails. Like Outreach, it's sold only through sales, with no price or trial on record.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | No price is published: the pricing page leads to a talk-to-sales form and every product is quoted, so there's no per-head figure for a team of five. With nothing published, it sits at C, and products are split by role, so a team may need several. |
| Free plan and trial | F | Nothing free. No free plan and no trial on record; the way in is a sales conversation. |
| Features | B | The whole job and more: cadences of email, call and social steps with automation rules, a dialer and texting, booking from emails, call recording and analysis, deal tracking, Rhythm's ranked to-dos and forecasting. AI agents find buyers and draft emails. |
| Ease of use | C | No App Store rating on record. It's bought through sales and split into products by role, so expect a proper rollout rather than a quick start. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web and an iPhone app, with Salesforce, Sales Navigator, ZoomInfo, Zoom, Google Meet, Zapier, Docusign and Okta. No Android app on record, and no desktop app. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who Salesloft is for
- Great if your SDRs run multi-step outbound cadences every day
- Handy when your team lives in Salesforce
- Good for revenue leaders who want engagement and forecasting in one place
Who it is not for
- Skip it if you want to see a price before a sales call, as none is published
- Not for you if you're a small team that only needs cold email sequences
- Tight if your reps carry Android phones, as the app is iPhone only
Good to know
Good for
- Sales development teams running multi-step outbound cadences
- Salesforce-based teams that want two-way CRM sync
- Revenue leaders who want engagement and forecasting on one platform
Worth knowing
- No prices are published: the pricing page leads to a talk-to-sales form, and every product is quoted by Salesloft's sales team.
- The platform is split into products by role: Cadence, Conversation Intelligence, Deals and Rhythm for sellers; Clari Forecast, Inspect and Analytics for leaders.
- The App Store lists the Salesloft Mobile app for iPhone only.
Part 02 · Pricing
What it costs
Every plan, the free plan, ways to pay less and how prices have moved
Salesloft's current pricing could not be confirmed from its own site.
With nothing published, it sits at C, and products are split by role, so a team may need several.
We could not confirm Salesloft’s current prices from its own site, so this guide lists no plans. salesloft.com has them.

Part 04 · Standing
Where it stands
Its grades against its category, and whether to keep it or make your own
1/20
Other cold outreach tools it is graded above
Salesloft's GPA of 2.0 is higher than 1 of the 20 other cold outreach tools we grade, and level with 3.
It stands best on features (B, above 9 of 20) and worst on free plan and trial (F, above 0).
Each grade against the category
Every bar is all 21 cold outreach tools we grade, cut by the letter each got. Salesloft’s own letter is outlined.
- CValue for moneyAbove 4 of 20
- FFree plan and trialAbove 0 of 20
- BFeaturesAbove 9 of 20
- CEase of useAbove 0 of 20
- BPlatforms and integrationsAbove 3 of 20
Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace Salesloft you would be making newsletters sent to thousands of people that still reach the inbox. 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: 16 of the 20 other cold outreach tools grade higher.
What you could make
- Sales pipeline: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- Newsletters sent to thousands of people that still reach the inbox.
- An AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it.
- Booking pages that read and write other people's calendars and send the emails.
- Speech turned into text you can trust.
- A real app for iOS. Something home-made would be a web page.
- It plugs into other products, Salesforce, LinkedIn Sales Navigator and ZoomInfo among them.
- People on the other end: coaches. No app builder makes those.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. Salesloft’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
