Gong alternatives (2026)

Artisan is an autonomous AI BDR platform built around "Ava," an AI sales agent that runs end-to-end outbound on autopilot: finding and enriching leads from a 250M+ verified B2B contact database, writing and sending personalized multi-channel sequences across email and LinkedIn, then handling replies and booking meetings into your CRM. You point it at an ICP and it sources, enriches, sequences, and follows up without a human BDR driving each step.

11x sells autonomous "digital workers" for go-to-market teams. Alice is an AI SDR that runs outbound prospecting end to end (lead research and enrichment from 50+ sources, ICP matching, and multi-channel sequencing across email, LinkedIn, SMS and phone), while Julian handles inbound voice and chat qualification.

All-in-one cold email outreach and sales engagement platform with an AI Sales Agent (AI SDR), a B2B lead database (SuperSearch), unlimited email-account warmup, deliverability and inbox-placement tooling, a native CRM, and AI campaign generation. It is built for sending cold email at volume across many sending accounts.

Apollo.io is an end-to-end AI sales platform combining a 230M+ contact and 30M+ company B2B database with prospecting, enrichment, multichannel sequencing, a dialer, and conversation intelligence. Its AI layer (Apollo AI assistant and outbound automation) drafts personalized emails, scores and prioritizes leads, and surfaces signals so reps can run outreach from one tool instead of stitching together separate data, sequencing, and dialer products.

Cold email outreach and AI outbound platform built around deliverability infrastructure (unlimited mailboxes, automated warmup, per-campaign IP rotation) plus autonomous SmartAgents that research leads, write personalized emails, and manage replies. It targets high-volume senders and agencies running multiple client workspaces.

AI-native CRM that captures every customer interaction automatically and runs agents to do the sales busywork. Headline: "CRM that remembers everything and does the work for you." Pitched as the agentic alternative to Salesforce, Attio, and HubSpot, logging emails, meetings, and calls and updating records for you instead of asking reps to do it by hand.

"Revenue at infinite scale." Actively deploys a persistent Per-Account Agent for every account in your market, autonomous AI that works each account 24/7, tells reps what to do next, and helps them do it. Built on a private, custom reasoning model trained per company on your GTM motion, products, and historical data.

Rox is an AI revenue operating system ("Revenue OS") that deploys a swarm of autonomous AI agents per customer account to run the full revenue cycle, prospecting, enrichment, outreach, meeting prep, conversation intelligence, pipeline/deal management, and account expansion. It sits on top of your existing CRM (Salesforce, HubSpot) and data warehouse rather than replacing them, so reps get agents that do the work while data stays where it lives.

Clay is a go-to-market data platform that pulls contact and company data from 150+ providers in waterfall enrichment, then lets you act on it with Claygent, an AI research agent that scrapes the web for custom data points. It sits between your prospecting list and your CRM/outbound stack, automating research and list-building that teams used to do by hand. Pricing splits into "Data Credits" (the data you buy) and "Actions" (platform orchestration), a model introduced in the March 2026 pricing overhaul.

Outreach is an enterprise AI sales execution platform that combines multi-channel sequences, conversation intelligence, deal and pipeline management, and forecasting in one system. It has repositioned around AI agents (Research, Revenue, Personalization, Deal, Meeting Prep) layered on top of its classic sales engagement engine. It is built for revenue teams that want a single platform across the full sales cycle rather than point tools.

Salesloft is an AI-powered revenue orchestration platform (now part of Clari) built around Cadence, Conversations, Deals, and Forecast, with a Rhythm AI layer that turns buyer signals into recommended seller actions. It is an enterprise sales-team workflow tool rather than an autonomous agent builder. Pricing is per-seat and entirely quote-based across its Essentials, Advanced, and Premier packages.

Qualified is a Salesforce-native pipeline generation platform whose flagship is Piper, an AI SDR built for inbound. Piper engages website visitors in real time over chat, voice, and video, qualifies them, books meetings, and sends AI-generated follow-up emails, all running on top of your Salesforce data. It is sold as a "digital employee" priced against the cost of a human SDR rather than per conversation.

Agentforce is Salesforce's native AI agent layer that builds autonomous agents on top of CRM, Data Cloud, and Flow. Agents are configured in the Agent Builder with no-code topics and actions, grounded in your Salesforce data, and deployed across service, sales, and employee-facing channels. It is consumption-priced rather than per-seat, billed either per conversation or via Flex Credits per action.

AiSDR is a pure-play autonomous AI sales development rep that prospects, researches leads, and runs personalized outreach across email and LinkedIn (plus texting) on your behalf. It handles the full top-of-funnel: finding intent-matched leads, writing and sending AI-researched messages, following up, and booking meetings into your calendar. It is a done-for-you outbound platform rather than a builder you assemble yourself.
