The key differences
Pricing model
lemlist's Email plan is billed per team and capped at 50,000 emails per month. Reply.io's Email Volume plan is billed per user, at a price that rises with "active contacts" (people who receive at least one step in the month): from $59 for 1,000, with unlimited users from 10,000 contacts. For LinkedIn, both charge per user.
Calls and SMS
Both offer a built-in dialer and SMS on their multichannel plan. For WhatsApp, lemlist sells a paid add-on, while Reply.io runs it as semi-automated tasks.
Data
Reply.io claims a database of 1B+ B2B contacts; lemlist claims 650M+. In both cases, contact details are paid in credits.
AI
Reply.io sells an AI SDR ("Jason") as a separate product. lemlist includes its AI agent lemAgent in every plan, with a daily limit.
