How Instantly works
Instantly is a high-volume cold-email tool that starts at about USD 47 a month and includes unlimited mailboxes. It scaled without venture capital, growing through agencies, affiliates and founder content. Its starting price is near the market's USD 39–47 price floor (as of 6 October 2026), so volume and price are where it competes.
Where LeadForge differs
LeadForge competes on accuracy and compliance rather than on price. Every sequence is grounded in each lead's own facts and your approved claims, with guardrails against invented claims, wrong names and wrong languages, an approval queue, our own email verifier, deliverability checks and hashed suppression. LeadForge is launching priced per workspace rather than per seat, with no mailbox limit (pricing to be announced).
Who should stay with Instantly
If your priority is a low price per mailbox for very high sending volume, and the accuracy and compliance guardrails above are not what you are looking for, Instantly may suit you. LeadForge is built for teams that want personalisation that does not invent claims or email the wrong person.
What you get with LeadForge
Grounded in facts
Every sequence is built from each lead's own facts and your approved claims, not generic templates.
Guardrails on every email
Checks catch invented claims, wrong names and wrong languages before an email is sent, and an approval queue keeps you in control.
Deliverability built in
Your own email verifier, deliverability checks and hashed suppression help protect your domains and your sending reputation.
Priced per workspace
LeadForge is launching with per-workspace pricing rather than per seat, so adding people does not raise the bill, with no mailbox limit (pricing to be announced).
Your own data and AI
Bring your own data-provider keys and your own AI key, or add LeadForge AI. Your searches run through your accounts.
Credits built to be fair
The launch credit policy is designed so lead credits roll over for two billing cycles and a hard bounce on a revealed address returns the credit.
