Quick answer: Outreach doesn't publish dollar prices. Its pricing page (outreach.io now redirects to outreach.ai) asks you to "reach out to our team for custom pricing." It says pricing combines seats with AI credits that you use up as you go. There are four packages: Amplify Essentials (10,000 AI credits), Core (25,000), Plus (50,000) and Pro (100,000). If you want public prices, Apollo.io starts free, lemlist's Email plan starts at $55/month, and Buzz.ai Core is $79/month per seat, billed monthly, for LinkedIn, email and call.
How Outreach pricing works
From outreach.ai/pricing, checked October 1, 2026:
- Custom quotes: every package says "Request pricing." Price depends on "team size and usage volume," the "number of AI workflows activated" and the "level of platform capabilities required."
- Seats plus credits: "Outreach uses a combination of seat-based pricing and consumption-based pricing powered by AI credits." An action, such as generating a personalized message, uses up a set number of credits, and you can buy more credit packs.
- Add-ons: Data Sharing, Connectors, Additional Instances and Listener Licenses.
- Onboarding: professional services packages are quoted separately.
- The page also says: "Per user pricing. No platform fees. Support included."
