How to choose

Four questions decide it.

Ask them before you build another workflow.

01

Who builds the workflow?

An automation tool needs someone to set up, launch and maintain each flow. An AI sales partner builds the campaign, and you approve what goes out.

02

Is data included?

Some tools bring contacts, some expect you to extract them. Check whether enrichment and verification cost extra.

03

Which channels can you use?

Social outreach alone or email and social in one sequence changes who you can reach.

04

What limits your volume?

Execution hours, slots, seats or credits. Find out what pauses your campaigns before it happens.
