A third option: Inboxed
If your volume changes from month to month, a plan priced by tier means paying for capacity you may not use. Inboxed has no plan: $1 per 1,000 emails sent, from a prepaid wallet; top-ups start at $5 and aren’t refundable. Free warmup for every mailbox you connect, and a shared team inbox with assignment, private comments and approvals.
It isn’t always cheaper: at several hundred thousand emails a month, a flat plan from Instantly or Lemlist can cost less, as the table shows. Email only: no LinkedIn, calling or SMS steps.
