What the documentation shows.
Smartlead states that every plan includes unlimited email accounts, and it sells client workspaces as an add-on ($29 a month each, three included on Unlimited Prime). That combination is why it’s usually recommended to agencies running outbound for several clients.
For a founder doing their own outbound, the Base plan’s 2,000 contacts and 6,000 emails a month is the relevant tier. With a three-email sequence over 21 working days, 6,000 emails a month covers about 95 new contacts a day, which is plenty for a first campaign.
Who it fits
- Agencies that need separate client workspaces
- Teams running many mailboxes who want flat pricing
- Small senders on the Base plan who stay under 6,000 emails a month
Watch out for
- The pricing page shows two different sets of prices; confirm the plan price at checkout.
- Which plans include warm-up and the API isn’t clear from the pricing page.
- Client workspaces cost extra below Unlimited Prime.
