1,000 fresh profiles; 500 successful email finds; up to three emails per found contact (1,500 sends, stopping on reply); 1,000 LinkedIn invites over four weeks, using three existing sender accounts on each side.
FUNEL estimate: 1,000 profiles × 5 credits + 500 successful email enrichments × up to 9 credits + 1,500 email sends × 1 credit + 1,000 invites × 12 credits + 1 quote credit = 23,001 credits. Base conversion: $2.25 per 500 credits. Email-find yield is assumed, not measured.
Consumption is different from an upfront purchase. A 35,000-credit pay-as-you-go pack costs $137.20 and leaves 11,999 credits after this scenario. That purchase is 2.45× lower than $336; the 3.25× figure applies to modeled consumption.
Desk research checked October 5, 2026, not a live paid benchmark. Subscription plans can cover multiple campaigns within their allowances. Plan choices, utilization, data coverage and actual sender limits change the comparison. No equal-results claim is made.
Excludes taxes, domains and mailboxes, acquiring sender accounts, optional cloud connections, AI copy/replies, website research, company enrichment and LinkedIn follow-ups. Actual sender limits may extend the run into another billing month.
