AI Sales Agent pricing for narrow-specialism recruiters

Money here buys preparation work rather than a list you search. The agent plans a campaign, builds the list and writes the messages for your specialism, then waits for you. You are paying for the hours that would otherwise go on assembling a shortlist and drafting first lines, not for a database that goes stale between searches.

Three lifetime tiers sit on the price table at softwareprogrammer.app: Starter, Growth and BYO-SMTP. Each is a one-off payment for the same core job, and they differ in scope rather than in quality. Read the table as a description of how much work is included before any message leaves your outbox.

For a recruiter working one narrow role and one location, the calculation is simple. Count the campaigns you would realistically launch in a quarter, then check which tier covers that volume of planning and drafting. Prices are rendered from the publisher's own table, so compare the tiers against that figure directly.

Starter suits a recruiter testing one specialism. Growth widens the work included for someone running several role or location combinations at once. BYO-SMTP is for teams that already have a sending setup they trust and want the agent's planning and writing without a managed mailbox attached.

Whichever tier you pick, the day looks similar. You describe the role, the location and the kind of person you want. The agent plans the campaign, builds the list and writes the copy. You read it, change what needs changing, and confirm the launch yourself before anything is sent.

The managed sending mailbox included in the standard tiers removes one setup task, and the interface runs in English and Spanish if your team splits across both languages. Neither changes the core rhythm: the agent prepares, you approve, and the campaign goes out under your name.

Your worry is a database that has gone stale by the time you search it. This tool does not ask you to browse a static list. It assembles the list for the campaign you describe, at the point you describe it, so the search and the draft happen together rather than months apart.

That does not make the output current in every detail. You still read the list and the copy before confirming the send, and that review step is where you catch a role that has closed or a company that has moved. The agent prepares; your judgement stays in the loop at the point of launch.

What you cannot buy at any tier is a guarantee of replies. The product makes no promise that recipients will answer or that a shortlist turns into a placement conversation. Judge the tiers on the preparation time they remove and on how well the drafts fit your specialism.

Set the tiers beside your own week. If you run one campaign at a time and review everything yourself, the smallest tier that includes planning, list building and writing is the fair comparison. If you already run your own mail server and have warmed it, the BYO-SMTP tier removes a mailbox you would not use.

Then weigh what no tier includes. Delivery rests on the sending reputation of the mailbox in play, so a clean setup is a starting condition rather than a result. Replies are not promised at any level. And every launch waits for your confirmation, so the agent never runs unattended while you are on calls.

Finally, compare against the alternative you already pay for: hours spent building a shortlist by hand. If the tier price is smaller than the preparation time it replaces across a quarter, it earns its place. If not, stay on the smallest tier until the volume justifies more.
