Emelia: warm every inbox your campaigns go out from

  1. 1

    Emelia

    Best for: Warm-up included with the plan that sends

    Emelia is not a warm-up service you add next to a sending tool: every mailbox a plan connects is warmed, 3 on Start for $37 a month, up to 50 on Grow for $97. The same plan sends your cold email sequences from those mailboxes, runs LinkedIn accounts alongside, and finds emails and phone numbers in credits. Where Mailwarm stops at 10 inboxes before a quote, Emelia publishes the price of 50 and beyond. It has no expert calls built into its plans and no placement test.

    • YesCold email from your own mailboxes
    • YesMailbox warm-up included
    • YesLinkedIn automation
    Price
    $37/month (Start plan · 3 mailboxes · 1 LinkedIn account)
    Who it’s for
    Teams that send cold email, or are about to, and would rather pay once for warm-up and sending.

A fraction of the price per inbox: Warmup Inbox, TrulyInbox, Mailivery, Warmbox, MailReach, lemwarm

Each of these warms one inbox for well under Mailwarm’s $79 on Starter. None builds monthly expert calls into its entry plan the way Mailwarm does, and only Warmup Inbox sends anything beyond the warm-up itself.

  1. 1

    Warmup Inbox

    Best for: A per-inbox rate that falls as you add inboxes

    Warmup Inbox charges by the inbox, from $19 a month on Basic and less per inbox as the count grows, with a quote beyond 50. That makes a single inbox a fraction of Mailwarm’s Starter, and the gap holds at 3 or 10 inboxes. Its plans also send outreach sequences from the inboxes they warm. The 7-day trial asks for no card; Mailwarm shows none.

    • YesCold email from your own mailboxes
    • YesMailbox warm-up included
    • YesAPI
    Price
    from $19/month per mailbox (Basic plan)
    Who it’s for
    Small teams that want a low per-inbox price and outreach sequences in the same tool.
  2. 2

    TrulyInbox

    Best for: A daily volume shared by as many accounts as you like

    TrulyInbox does not count inboxes at all: each plan sets a daily warm-up volume shared by unlimited accounts, from $29 a month on Starter, which it suits to about 3 inboxes. It is free for 1 account and offers a 7-day trial without a card. It comes from the company behind Saleshandy. Against Mailwarm, the same 3 inboxes cost a fraction, without the monthly expert calls.

    • YesAPI
    • YesMailbox warm-up included
    • NoCold email from your own mailboxes
    Price
    Free plan, then $29/month (Starter plan · unlimited mailboxes · 200 warm-up emails a day)
    Who it’s for
    Senders with many inboxes who want the bill to stay flat as they add more.
  3. 3

    Mailivery

    Best for: Placement tests included with a shared warm-up volume

    Mailivery also sells a daily volume rather than inboxes, with unlimited mailboxes and a cap per mailbox: Starter at $29, Professional at $79 and Business at $199 a month. Each plan includes inbox placement tests, 10 on Starter, a job Mailwarm covers with its spam score per provider. Mailivery can be tried for 7 days.

    • YesAPI
    • YesMailbox warm-up included
    • NoCold email from your own mailboxes
    Price
    $29/month (Starter plan · unlimited mailboxes · 200 warm-up emails a day)
    Who it’s for
    Teams that want warm-up and placement tests, from under the price of one Mailwarm inbox.
  4. 4

    Warmbox

    Best for: Small batches of inboxes, like Mailwarm, for less

    Warmbox sells the same kind of fixed batches: Solo for 1 inbox at $19 a month, Start-up for 3 inboxes at $79 a month and Growth for 6 inboxes at $159 a month, then a quote. Batch for batch, it costs much less than Mailwarm ($79 for 3 inboxes against $189). There are no expert calls, and its placement check is still announced as coming soon.

    • YesAPI
    • YesMailbox warm-up included
    • NoCold email from your own mailboxes
    Price
    $19/month (Solo plan · 1 mailbox · 50 warm-up emails a day)
    Who it’s for
    Founders who warm a few inboxes and want Mailwarm’s batch model at a lower price.
  5. 5

    MailReach

    Best for: A published per-mailbox rate and spam tests

    MailReach bills each mailbox, $25 a month up to 5 and less beyond, with a quote above 100, and 20 spam test credits a month for the account. Every count up to 100 inboxes therefore has a public price, where Mailwarm jumps from one batch to the next. It sends no campaigns and offers no free trial of the warm-up either.

    • YesAPI
    • YesMailbox warm-up included
    • NoCold email from your own mailboxes
    Price
    from $25/month per mailbox (All-in-One plan)
    Who it’s for
    Teams that want to know the exact price of each inbox they add.
  6. 6

    lemwarm

    Best for: One subscription per address, or included with lemlist

    lemlist’s warm-up costs $29 a month per address on Essential, $49 on Smart, and comes with every paid lemlist plan. Bought alone, it has no trial, like Mailwarm, and no expert calls.

    • YesMailbox warm-up included
    • NoCold email from your own mailboxes
    • NoLinkedIn automation
    Price
    $29/month per mailbox (Essential plan)
    Who it’s for
    Teams who already pay for lemlist, or who warm one address at a time.

Similar price range, more deliverability testing: Folderly and Warmy

For a single inbox, Folderly costs more than Mailwarm and Warmy less; both put the money into monitoring and placement tests rather than into the warm-up alone.

  1. 1

    Folderly

    Best for: A managed deliverability service, billed by the year

    Like Mailwarm, Folderly sells a person as well as software: a named deliverability specialist follows the account. The difference is in the billing. There is no monthly option: its overview page starts at $96 per mailbox and per month, billed yearly only with a minimum commitment, down to $56 from 25 inboxes, with a quote past 99. Automated placement tests are part of Folderly, and a separate product, Inbox Insights, adds 2 free tests a month.

    • YesMailbox warm-up included
    • NoCold email from your own mailboxes
    • NoLinkedIn automation
    Price
    from $96/month per mailbox (billed yearly)
    Who it’s for
    Companies ready to commit for a year to a deliverability service run with them.
  2. 2

    Warmy

    Best for: Warm-up with placement tests and monitoring, per mailbox

    Warmy’s app and help centre put a plan on each mailbox, from $49 a month on Starter, though its pricing page speaks of volume-based pricing. Every plan has inbox placement tests, email verification, DMARC and reputation monitoring and a public API. For 3 inboxes, Warmy comes to $147 a month, against $189 on Mailwarm’s Growth. Its 7-day trial runs without a card, and the human side is a dedicated deliverability expert with round-the-clock support.

    • YesAPI
    • YesMailbox warm-up included
    • NoCold email from your own mailboxes
    Price
    $49/month per mailbox (Starter plan · 100 warm-up emails a day)
    Who it’s for
    Senders who want to measure where their emails land, not only to warm the inbox.

Warm-up bundled with a sending tool: Instantly, Smartlead, Mailshake

Mailwarm expects you to keep a sending tool next to it. These are sending tools that include the warm-up, like Emelia, but without LinkedIn automation in the same plan.

  1. 1

    Instantly

    Best for: Warm-up included on its sending plans

    Instantly’s Growth plan, $47 a month, sends cold email from as many inboxes as you connect and includes their warm-up. That is less than one Mailwarm inbox, with the campaigns included. You can try it for 14 days without entering a card. It has no expert calls, and LinkedIn is not part of the plan.

    • YesCold email from your own mailboxes
    • YesMailbox warm-up included
    • YesEmail finder
    Price
    $47/month (Growth plan · 5,000 emails a month · unlimited mailboxes)
    Who it’s for
    Cold email teams that want many inboxes warmed and sending from one tool.
  2. 2

    Smartlead

    Best for: Sending and warm-up from the entry plan

    Smartlead includes warm-up for the inboxes it sends from, starting with Base at $39 a month, with a 14-day trial. Against Mailwarm, you drop the second tool and the second bill, and lose the expert calls.

    • YesCold email from your own mailboxes
    • YesMailbox warm-up included
    • YesAPI
    Price
    $39/month (Base plan · 6,000 emails a month · unlimited mailboxes)
    Who it’s for
    Agencies and teams sending at volume from many inboxes.
  3. 3

    Mailshake

    Best for: Per-user sending plans with warm-up included

    Mailshake bills by the user rather than by the inbox: Starter, $29 a month, connects 1 inbox per account, and every plan includes warm-up for the connected inboxes. It runs the sequences too, so there is no second tool to pay for. Like Mailwarm, it takes payment upfront rather than offering a free trial.

    • YesCold email from your own mailboxes
    • YesMailbox warm-up included
    • YesAPI
    Price
    $29/month per user (Starter plan · 1,500 emails a month · 1 mailbox)
    Who it’s for
    Small sales teams that want each user’s inbox warmed and sending from one subscription.

Replacing Mailwarm: questions

The way you pay, first: Warmup Inbox bills each inbox, from $19 a month, where Mailwarm sells batches of 1, 3 or 10. You also get a 7-day trial without a card and outreach sequences, and you give up the calls with a deliverability expert that come with every Mailwarm batch.

Yes, billed monthly: for 3 inboxes, lemwarm Essential at $29 per address comes to $87, and the Mailwarm batch that covers them, Growth, to $189. Neither shows a free trial; Mailwarm adds expert calls, lemwarm comes free with a paid lemlist plan.

Emelia has no free warm-up plan, by choice: its warm-up network is kept for paying senders, with a cap on mailboxes per plan. You can still try it for 7 days without a card, with 20 credits at signup for a work email. Elsewhere, TrulyInbox has a free plan for 1 account, and lemwarm costs nothing more inside a paid lemlist plan. Mailwarm’s own free tools test a setup rather than warm it.
