AiSDR vs Regie.ai
An independent, review-free comparison compiled by the SaaSTracker editorial team. Both products are profiled in full, and neither can pay for placement here.
The short answer
Both sides assessedAiSDR compared with Regie.ai
Regie.ai has a free tier and a $49 self-serve plan and expects you to send from your own Gmail or Outlook, so it is a far cheaper way to find out whether an AI-assisted outbound motion works for you. AiSDR provides the mailboxes, the warmup, and the service wrapper, and charges accordingly. Start with Regie if you have deliverable mailboxes and want to test cheaply; move to AiSDR if you need cold-sending infrastructure you do not want to build.
Regie.ai compared with AiSDR
AiSDR bundles domains, mailboxes, warmup, and a LinkedIn allowance into a $250 to $2,500 monthly price and requires quarterly prepayment above the entry tier. Regie charges $49 and expects you to send from your own Gmail or Outlook. Choose Regie if you have deliverable mailboxes and want to test cheaply with a human editing the copy; choose AiSDR if the reason your outbound has not started is that nobody wants to set up cold-sending infrastructure.
Choose AiSDR if
Founder-led B2B teams and small sales orgs with no SDR to hire and no appetite for assembling a data tool, a sending tool, a warmup vendor, and a personalization layer themselves, who can commit to a quarter of spend and will assign one person to review replies daily.
Choose Regie.ai if
Small sales teams and founders who already have deliverable mailboxes and want the research, ranking, drafting, and sequencing work handled cheaply, and who will edit the output rather than expecting to let it run unattended.

13 attributes| Attribute | AiSDR | Regie.ai |
|---|---|---|
| Category | AI SDR | AI SDR |
| Starting price | $250 per month (Solo, 200 contacts) | $0 (Free), then $49 per month (Pro) (free plan available) |
| Pricing model | Contact-volume tiers quoted per month. Solo is month to month and self-serve; Explore and Scale are billed quarterly in advance and require a demo. Annual prepayment takes 20 percent off. | Freemium credit-metered subscription. Free and Pro are self-serve; Enterprise is quoted per team after a demo. |
| Free plan | No | 250 one-time credits with full workspace access: research, enrichment, drafting, dialer, and agents, sending from your own Gmail or Outlook, single user. |
| Free trial | No | The free plan is the trial; no credit card is required and no expiry is imposed. |
| Best for | Founder-led B2B teams and small sales orgs with no SDR to hire and no appetite for assembling a data tool, a sending tool, a warmup vendor, and a personalization layer themselves, who can commit to a quarter of spend and will assign one person to review replies daily. | Small sales teams and founders who already have deliverable mailboxes and want the research, ranking, drafting, and sequencing work handled cheaply, and who will edit the output rather than expecting to let it run unattended. |
| Setup time | About a week of configuration, then thirty to sixty days before sending is at full capacity because new domains warm up first. Treat the first month as ramp regardless of what the plan comparison implies. | Under an hour on the free tier. Connect Gmail or Outlook, describe the ICP, and the workspace starts sourcing. Because there is no vendor-provisioned domain, there is no warmup wait, which is the fastest time to first send in this category. |
| Learning curve | Low on the software, higher on the judgement. The interface is simple and the strategist walks you through setup, but deciding which replies the AI should handle and which need a human is the skill that determines whether this works. | Moderate. The workspace has a lot of surface: agents, signals, sequences, dialer, content. The skill that matters is knowing how much of the AI draft to rewrite, which reviewers suggest is most of it early on. |

Strengths and limitations
AiSDR
Strengths
- Sending infrastructure is included rather than assumed: domains, mailboxes, warmup, and LinkedIn allowances all sit inside the plan price, which removes the biggest hidden cost in AI SDR buying.
- The Solo tier at $250 a month is genuinely self-serve, published, and month to month, which almost none of the demo-gated competition offers.
- Metering by researched contacts rather than emails sent makes cost per prospect trivially easy to model before you buy.
- Live web search for list building is less brittle than a static contact database when your ICP is defined by behavior rather than firmographics.
Limitations
- No free trial at any tier, and the tiers above Solo are demo-gated and billed quarterly in advance, so evaluation is expensive and slow.
- Warmup means the first thirty to sixty days underdeliver by design, and you pay full price for that period.
- Sequence customization is shallow: reviewers report you cannot build custom signal logic or complex branching, only configure supplied playbooks.
- AI reply handling occasionally answers conversations that a human should have taken, which is a reputational risk in a small market where every prospect matters.
Regie.ai
Strengths
- The only serious AI SDR platform with a genuinely free tier and a published $49 self-serve plan, which removes the category's usual $2,500 evaluation tax.
- A dialer, LinkedIn steps, and email sequencing in one workspace, with calling available even on the free plan.
- Why-now signal tracking and account ranking give the outreach a defensible reason to exist rather than a firmographic filter.
- Failed enrichment does not consume credits on paid plans, which is a fairer meter than the industry norm.
Limitations
- The persistent review complaint is that AI copy reads robotically and reps rewrite most of it, which undercuts the autonomy story.
- Data accuracy friction shows up in reviews as wrong phone numbers and prospect mismatches, so verification remains a manual habit.
- Auto-Pilot targeting runs on ICP filters and basic intent signals, not deep triggers like competitor contract timing or technology evaluations.
- No sending infrastructure: if your domain is unwarmed or your mailbox is not configured for cold outreach, Regie will happily help you burn it.
Pricing compared
AiSDR
Contact-volume tiers quoted per month. Solo is month to month and self-serve; Explore and Scale are billed quarterly in advance and require a demo. Annual prepayment takes 20 percent off.
- Solo$250
- Explore$900
- Scale$2,500
Solo at $250 a month is the fairest entry point in this category, because it is the only tier where a small business can start without a sales call and where the infrastructure cost is genuinely included. Per contacted prospect it works out at $1.25 on Solo, $1.13 on Explore, and $1.00 on Scale, which is cheap against any human alternative and expensive against a self-assembled stack of Instantly plus a data provider. The value case falls apart if you cannot commit a quarter: with no trial, warmup eating month one, and quarterly prepayment on the useful tiers, the true minimum test is about $2,700 and ninety days. Buy it for the bundled infrastructure and the service wrapper, not for the autonomy claims.
Regie.ai
Freemium credit-metered subscription. Free and Pro are self-serve; Enterprise is quoted per team after a demo.
- Free$0
- Pro$49
- EnterpriseCustom
At $49 a month for 5,000 credits, Regie is the cheapest way to find out whether AI-assisted prospecting helps your business, and the free tier means the first answer costs nothing. Judged against AiSDR at $250 to $2,500 a month or Artisan's demo-only contracts, the capability per dollar is extraordinary, with the dialer included even on free. The honest caveats are that credits are consumed quickly by enrichment, that unused credits vanish at reset, and that the price excludes the sending infrastructure competitors bundle. Read Pro as an excellent research, drafting, and orchestration workspace for a team that already has deliverable mailboxes, and price the mailboxes separately.
Editorial verdict on each
AiSDR
Category LeaderAiSDR is one of the few products in this category that a small business can actually buy without a sales call, and the reason to buy it is the boring part: it hands you warmed domains, mailboxes, and a LinkedIn allowance inside the subscription, which is where self-assembled outbound stacks usually die. The research and writing are competent, the multi-channel execution is real, and the $250 Solo tier is a fair price for a founder who has stopped doing outbound because there is no time. Be clear-eyed about the rest. There is no trial, the first month is warmup you pay for, the useful tiers cost about $2,700 to try and require a demo, the sequences cannot be programmed, and the AI reply handling needs supervision. Buy it as a service that does the mechanical work of prospecting with someone still watching, budget a full quarter before judging, and do not believe any framing that has it carrying a quota on its own.

Best ValueRegie.ai is the most buyable product in a category that mostly refuses to publish prices. The free tier is a real evaluation, the $49 Pro plan is priced below single-purpose data tools, and the workspace covers sourcing, signals, enrichment, drafting, sequencing, and dialing without a contract or a seat minimum. What you should not buy is the autonomy story: Auto-Pilot runs on ICP filters and ordinary intent signals, the copy reads like AI copy until a human rewrites it, and the data occasionally sends you to the wrong person. Also remember what the $49 excludes, which is the entire sending infrastructure problem, since Regie ships mail through your own Gmail or Outlook. For a founder or a two-rep team with a healthy mailbox and someone willing to edit, this is the correct first purchase in the AI SDR category, and the free tier means finding out costs nothing.
