Choosing an AI automation tier when your list is one city

Count the outreach actions your city campaign needs each week, not the size of a national database you will never touch. The tiers are set by volume and by whether you bring your own model key, so the figure to settle is how many research, write and send steps your team runs inside your own accounts during a normal working month.

Your objection is national data with no local detail, and the platform does not sell you contacts at all. It works inside the accounts you already hold, so the local knowledge stays yours and the tool only carries the work. That reframes the comparison: you are pricing capacity for local research and follow up, not buying a list of owners and developers.

Look at what one connection screen for many apps saves your team in manual copying between systems. Every message sent, record updated and note logged happens in the tools you already run, which keeps your city detail intact. The number that matters is the volume of those steps, because that is what the tiers are built around.

Starter lifetime suits a small property team testing one workflow, such as researching owners in a single postcode district and drafting first contact messages. You connect the apps you already pay for once, then ask the AI to carry the sequence inside your own accounts. Guided setup and an activity log give you a record of what ran and when.

Growth lifetime is the step for a team sending at higher volume across the city, where more research, writing, sending and logging steps run each month. The work still happens in your accounts, so nothing about your local detail changes. The difference sits in how much the tier allows you to push through before you meet its ceiling.

BYOK unlimited lifetime changes the model side of the arrangement. You supply your own model key, and your provider bills that key for each request. This tier is for a team that already holds a model account and wants the volume ceiling removed, with the same connection screen, guided setup and activity log behind the work.

Ask whether your problem is capacity or contact data. A team contacting owners and developers in one city usually has the names and the local knowledge already; what it lacks is the hours to research each one, write a tailored message and keep the record current. The platform is built for that second problem, and it will not solve the first.

If you expected the tool to hand you a fresh local list, the comparison will disappoint you. It runs inside the apps you pay for, so your existing records stay the source. That is good news for local detail and a limit for anyone hoping to widen reach without doing the research themselves.

The other question is how much of the sequence you want running without a person present. Work is bound by the permissions of your connected accounts, and destructive steps wait for your confirmation. A team that wants a fully hands off sequence should plan around those pauses before choosing a tier.

Moving up a tier buys headroom for more of the same work, not a different kind of work. If your city campaign has outgrown the volume your current level allows, the next level lets more research, drafting, sending and logging steps run each month. Nothing about how the platform connects to your apps changes with the upgrade.

Before you pay for more headroom, confirm that volume is genuinely your constraint. A team stalled by account permissions will not gain from a larger tier, because the work still stops where access stops. Check that the apps holding your owner and developer records are connected with the access the sequence needs.

The BYOK unlimited lifetime tier is a different purchase rather than simply a bigger one. You take on the model billing yourself through your own key, and the platform stops capping volume in the way the other tiers do. That suits a team already paying a model provider and wanting the two costs kept separate.
