Best for AI workers briefed by email
Toolhouse sells AI workers you brief in plain language, often by email, for marketing and sales tasks. You pay per credit at $5 per 1,000 requests, and the pages do not state free limits or what a task will cost up front.
Who Toolhouse is for
- Fits if you want marketing or sales chores handed off by email
- Works for teams that prefer paying per task over per seat
Who Toolhouse is not for
- Skip it if you need a fixed monthly bill, because cost depends on credits per task
- Not for you if you want to try it free, as no free limits or trial are stated
- Watch out: private cloud, custom data retention and a DPA are limited to Business, which is custom-priced
- Watch out: volume discounts of 20% and 40% only start at 1 million and 10 million credits
Why Toolhouse gets a 1.8
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- CValue for money$5 per 1,000 requests pay as you go, which the category price check can't compare. Costs vary by task, from 18 credits for email marketing to 96 for an image or video.
- FFree plan and trialNo free plan or trial on record. The page mentions free usage but gives no limits or length.
- CFeaturesDelegated marketing and sales tasks with CRM and messaging links, but the job list is narrow and its scope is set by the vendor's task types.
- CEase of useNo rating on record. Briefing by email is simple, but you connect CRMs and messaging tools.
- BPlatforms and integrationsWeb service with Slack, Teams, HubSpot and Salesforce links and MCP. No desktop or phone app.

Keep Toolhouse, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Toolhouse you would be making an AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it. 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: 115 of the 178 other AI agents grade higher.
What you could not
- An AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it.
- Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
- Email sent in volume that still reaches the inbox.
- A builder that other people can use without writing code.
What this rests on. Toolhouse’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.
What is Toolhouse?
Toolhouse sells AI workers that take a task described in plain language, often by email, and return finished work such as campaigns, lead lists and reports. Workers run in the vendor's cloud with a choice of models, work with CRMs and messaging tools, and are billed by usage credits rather than a seat fee.
Worth knowing
- Cost depends on credits per task, for example 18 credits per email-marketing unit and 96 per image or video unit.
- Volume discounts of 20% at 1 million credits and 40% at 10 million apply automatically.
- The page says free AI usage is included and offers to start free, but does not state free-plan limits or a trial length.
- Private cloud deployment, custom data retention and a DPA are limited to the custom Business plan.
Key features
- Delegate by email or chat
- A worker takes a task written in plain language and sends the finished deliverable back, including when your laptop is off.
- Marketing tasks
- The usage calculator lists email campaigns, social posts, ad campaigns, image and video assets, contact management, and SEO pages.
- Sales tasks
- Workers generate leads, update a CRM, and prepare offer decks and proposals; HubSpot and Salesforce logos appear on the pricing page.
- Model-agnostic
- The vendor says workers can use models from several providers and that customer data is not used for training.
- MCP and integrations
- An MCP server extends workers with other tools, and the page cites over 5,000 integrations.
