Which option fits your team?
On small screens, scroll the table sideways.
| Your requirement | Where to start | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| One seller testing a small audience | Start with AiSDR Solo | Check whether its monthly research allowance is enough before committing to a bigger rollout. |
| An established Forge workflow | Evaluate Agent Frank | Price the agent and sending infrastructure together, and demonstrate your CRM handoff. |
| Several users or more contact capacity | Compare a scoped Agent Frank offer with AiSDR Explore/Scale | Match users, contact definitions and support; Solo is not a price for the whole team. |
| Salesforce is essential | Evaluate AiSDR Scale and verify Agent Frank's connection | An integration must support your required records and updates, not simply export a list. |

An active contact is not a researched contact
Salesforge counts contacts progressing through a sequence; completed or paused records can leave that active pool. AiSDR's allowance is monthly research capacity. Do not divide either subscription by the other's unit or interpret capacity as meetings. Ask both vendors to price the same list and cadence, including repeat touches and exclusions.
Compare the human work around the agent
Both evaluations need an owner for targeting, message quality and handoff. In a demo, ask the agent to explain a research claim, prepare an email, handle a pricing objection and stop outreach after an opt-out. Record where approval is required and where an employee must intervene. Public feature lists do not establish which system performs better on your market.
Use the CRM as a purchase gate
For HubSpot, check contact creation, owner mapping, activity history and suppression together. For Agent Frank, ask for the exact supported route into your CRM and any additional services; management access to Salesforge does not prove a native two-way HubSpot connection. For AiSDR, distinguish included contact sync from the richer research and monitoring on higher tiers.
Run an equivalent pilot
Use a comparable audience and offer, agree a qualification definition, and measure meetings held and sales-accepted opportunities alongside cost and operator time. Keep infrastructure, data, subscriptions and setup visible. A lower cost per email is unhelpful if the team spends longer correcting research or handling unsuitable replies.
Common buying questions
Is AiSDR always more expensive than Agent Frank?
No. Solo has a lower displayed entry subscription, while higher AiSDR tiers cost more and offer different scope. Agent Frank's infrastructure is additional. Compare the complete proposal at the volume and commitment you need.
Do I need a separate Salesforge subscription for Agent Frank?
Agent Frank's product FAQ says management access is included. A separate human-led Salesforge subscription is a different purchase. Ask sales to itemise infrastructure and any extra services rather than automatically adding a base plan.
Which one guarantees more meetings?
Neither can be declared the winner from this source review. We have not tested them head to head, and published capacity is not a meeting guarantee.
