Emelia: email cadences and automated LinkedIn on a monthly plan
- 1
Best for: Cold email and LinkedIn in one plan, priced by mailboxes and accountsEmelia replaces the two Klenty plans that matter to an email team in one: the sending of Starter and the LinkedIn steps of Growth. Start connects 3 mailboxes and 1 LinkedIn account for $37 a month, Grow 50 mailboxes and 3 accounts for $97, with no cap on contacts or on emails sent and no charge per user. LinkedIn steps run on Emelia’s servers, warm-up covers every mailbox, and the email and phone finders use credits that stay valid for a year. Emelia makes no calls and has no built-in contact database.

- Who it’s for
- Teams that prospect by email and LinkedIn rather than by phone, and want a monthly bill.
Instead of Starter: senders with unlimited mailboxes and volume pricing
Starter is already a team plan with unlimited mailboxes; what these three change is the meter and the billing period. All of them can be paid month by month.
- 1
Best for: Many mailboxes, warm-up included, monthly billingInstantly also sells unlimited mailboxes with a cap on contacts, but it counts the contacts loaded into the account, a total that never goes back to zero, where Klenty counts contacts per month. Its Growth plan covers 5,000 emails a month and 1,000 contacts in the account, warm-up included, and its lead database is sold apart. Unlike Klenty, a single month can be bought.

Best for: Volume sending with stored contacts cappedSmartlead’s Base plan costs $39 a month for 6,000 emails and 2,000 stored contacts, Pro $94 for 90,000 emails and 30,000 contacts; unlimited contacts start one plan higher. Like Starter, it has no native LinkedIn steps. The stored-contact counter is the thing to watch: it never resets, while Klenty sells a number of contacts per month without saying what it counts.

Best for: Billing by emails sent, follow-ups includedWoodpecker drops the contact meter altogether and charges by emails sent: 5,000 for $39 a month, 50,000 for $79, mailboxes and users unlimited, a few mailboxes warmed up for free. LinkedIn automation is a separate $29 per account a month, and its finder returns emails, not phone numbers.

Instead of Growth seats: LinkedIn steps that run without a click each
Growth is the first Klenty plan with LinkedIn, but its steps are tasks a rep approves one by one in an open browser. These tools also charge per seat or per sender, and run the LinkedIn steps themselves.
- 1
Best for: One LinkedIn account and a few mailboxes per userlemlist’s Multichannel seat costs $109 per user a month with 1 LinkedIn account and up to 5 mailboxes, LinkedIn invitations and messages sent by lemlist itself. Like Klenty, it adds a database paid in credits, and it can be paid month by month.

Best for: A sender identity with LinkedIn and email togetherWhere a Klenty Growth seat leaves LinkedIn as a to-do list, La Growth Machine sends the invitations and messages itself and chains them with emails in one sequence. Its unit is the “identity”, one person’s LinkedIn profile together with their mailbox, at $69 a month on Basic. A 14-day trial needs no card.

Instead of Plus: a dialer and a contact database next to the sequences
Plus is the Klenty plan for teams that call a lot: more minutes, call coaching, data credits. Emelia has no dialer, so this group covers the tools that keep calls and a database in the same place as the sequences.
- 1
Best for: Email, LinkedIn and calls under one loginReply.io’s Multichannel seat costs $99 per user a month with 1 LinkedIn account and 5 mailboxes, LinkedIn steps automated. Calls and SMS come with that seat and are paid by usage, about $0.0165 a minute (the $29 calling add-on only concerns its Email Volume plan). Its database charges 2 credits per email found.

Best for: A large database with a dialer and sequencesApollo starts from its contact database and adds sequences and a US dialer from Basic, at $65 per licence a month with 2,500 credits; parallel and power dialling are its Advanced Dialer add-on, $149 a month. Like Klenty’s Growth and Plus, it charges per user. LinkedIn steps stay manual tasks, as at Klenty.

LinkedIn steps go through partner tools rather than its own automation.

Moving a Klenty team to Emelia: mailboxes, LinkedIn accounts, CRM and credits
- Mailboxes. Connect the same mailboxes you used with Klenty. The plan is set by how many you connect (3 on Start, 50 on Grow, more on Scale), never by users or contacts.
- LinkedIn accounts. Each account is connected once through the Chrome extension; after that, invitations and messages go out from Emelia’s servers, with no task to approve. 3 accounts come with Grow, 10 with Scale, then $29 a month for each extra one.
- Lists. Export your Sales Navigator searches into Emelia with no limit on the number of exports, from $37 a month excluding tax (how it works), or import the CSV you take out of Klenty.
- CRM. A CRM integration and the API come with every plan, Start included, where Klenty keeps native CRM sync for Growth and above.
- Credits. Emails cost 1 credit when found, phone numbers 50 credits with the credits returned when none is found, and credits stay valid for a year after purchase, even after cancelling.
- Calls. Emelia has no dialer: teams that keep calling every day keep a calling tool next to it.
Leaving Klenty mid-quarter: a prepaid bill, credits that reset, 30 days of data
Klenty’s pricing FAQ allows cancelling at any time without a fee, and promises no charge for the next billing period. With quarterly or yearly billing paid upfront, that means the current quarter or year runs to its end: the best moment to switch is a few days before renewal.
Prospect IQ and validation credits do not wait for that date: unused ones disappear at the end of each month. Calling minutes bought separately do not expire; the minutes included in Growth and Plus, though, do not carry over.
Deleting the account is done from the team settings; prospects, cadences and emails stay recoverable for 30 days, then they are gone. Export what you need before that.
Klenty alternatives FAQ
Emelia first: every plan is billed monthly, from $37. Instantly, Smartlead, Woodpecker, lemlist, La Growth Machine, Reply.io, Apollo and Saleshandy all show a monthly price as well. Klenty is the one in this list that starts at three months.
Both sell unlimited mailboxes and cap two things. Smartlead caps emails sent per month and contacts stored in the account (2,000 on Base), and that second counter never resets. Klenty Starter caps contacts and emails per month (15,000 and 75,000 on its first tier). Smartlead can be paid monthly, Klenty cannot.
No. Dripify automates LinkedIn invitations and messages from the cloud (its Pro plan is $79 per licence a month), while Klenty schedules them as tasks that a rep runs one at a time through its Chrome extension. Emelia runs them automatically too, in the same campaign as the emails.
Klenty is built around calls (parallel dialer, local numbers, coaching) and treats LinkedIn as tasks; lemlist is built around email and LinkedIn, sends the LinkedIn steps itself and adds a built-in dialer with 400 call minutes per user. Both charge per user for their multichannel plans, and only lemlist can be paid month to month.
Klenty compares itself to Outreach on its own site. Outreach publishes no price, only a request for a quote, so it cannot be set against Klenty’s tiers on this page.
