How we compared. We looked at what each AI SDR actually does (outbound or inbound, who finds the contacts, who writes and sends), who it is built for, and what it costs to start, including contract length. Where a vendor doesn't publish prices we use the figures reported by the sources linked under each tool, and say so. Grafema publishes this site and makes one of the products listed; we placed it first for value, not overall, and you should weigh that.

How to choose an AI SDR
- Outbound or inbound. If your problem is not enough conversations, you need outbound. If you already get traffic that doesn't convert, look at inbound (Qualified).
- Budget and contract. Monthly plans from about $200 to $600 suit small teams; enterprise tools usually ask for an annual contract worth tens of thousands.
- Who supplies the contacts. Some tools include B2B data and verified emails; others expect you to bring lists. Check what is included in the price.
- Sending infrastructure. Good deliverability needs separate domains and warmed-up inboxes. Some plans include them, others bill them on top.
- Proof before paying. Prefer a tool that shows you real prospects and emails for your company before you commit.
Frequently asked questions
What is an AI SDR?
An AI SDR (AI sales development representative) is software that does the prospecting work of a junior sales rep: it finds companies and decision-makers that match your target, researches them, writes and sends personalised emails and follow-ups, and passes interested replies to a person. Inbound AI SDRs, such as Qualified Piper, talk to website visitors instead.
Is an AI SDR the same as an AI sales agent?
Mostly, yes. "AI SDR" and "AI sales agent" both describe software that does a sales development rep's prospecting work. Some vendors use "AI sales agent" more broadly for tools that also answer inbound visitors or help reps inside a CRM; every tool on this page prospects for new customers, except Qualified Piper, which works on inbound.
Which AI SDR is best for a small business?
For small teams, the deciding factors are a low monthly price without an annual contract and a way to see results before paying. Grafema AI SDR (€199/month, free preview of 15 prospects) and AiSDR (from $250/month) are the two options in this comparison with low published prices and monthly plans.
Which AI SDR is best for enterprise teams?
11x and Qualified are built and priced for larger organisations, with annual contracts reported between roughly $36,000 and $68,000 a year. Amplemarket and Regie.ai sit in between, aimed at sales teams that want AI alongside their reps.
Do AI SDRs replace human SDRs?
They replace much of the repetitive work: list building, research, first emails and follow-ups. Most teams still have a person take over once a prospect replies with interest. A fully loaded US SDR costs an estimated $85,000–$150,000 a year, so AI SDRs are often used to cover more of the market before hiring.
Which AI SDRs write in languages other than English?
Grafema writes each email in the language of the prospect's country: Portuguese, English, Spanish, French, German or Italian. If you sell across Europe, check language support with each vendor before you buy.
What is the difference between an inbound and an outbound AI SDR?
An outbound AI SDR contacts people who haven't heard of you yet, usually by email. An inbound AI SDR responds to people who come to you, such as visitors on your website. Eight of the nine tools here are outbound; Qualified Piper is inbound.
