Full breakdown of every Reply.io plan including their AI SDR and Email Volume tiers. Here is what you actually pay and how SendKit compares on value.

3 min readUpdated Mar 2026

Bottom line

Reply.io has two distinct product lines: AI SDR (Jason) starting at $259/mo and Email Volume starting at $49/mo. The Email Volume plans are competitively priced for pure sending, but the AI SDR pricing is steep. If you just need email outreach with solid infrastructure, SendKit offers more volume and dedicated IPs for less.

What's Not Included

AI SDR and Email Volume are separate products

Reply.io sells two distinct product lines. The AI SDR (Jason) is designed for autonomous prospecting and starts at $259/mo. Email Volume is for manual outreach and starts at $49/mo. You may need both depending on your workflow.

$49-$499/mo depending on products

Contact limits on Email Volume

Email Volume plans limit active contacts: 1,000 on Starter ($49), 3,000 on Professional ($89). Only the $166/mo Unlimited plan removes this cap.

Upgrade to $166/mo for unlimited

AI SDR has low email volume for the price

The AI SDR Starter gives you only 1,000 AI emails for $259/mo. That is $0.26 per email. The Professional tier gives 4,000 emails for $499/mo ($0.12/email). These are high costs compared to volume-based tools.

$0.12-$0.26 per email

Enterprise AI SDR is custom pricing

For higher volumes on the AI SDR, you need custom enterprise pricing. There is no published rate for scaling beyond 4,000 AI emails/month.

Plan-by-plan breakdown

Reply.io splits into two product lines. The AI SDR product (called Jason) is an autonomous AI agent that handles prospecting and outreach. It starts at $259/mo for 1,000 AI-generated emails and goes to $499/mo for 4,000.

The Email Volume product is a more traditional cold email platform starting at $49/mo for 1,000 active contacts with unlimited emails. The Professional tier ($89/mo) raises the limit to 3,000 contacts, and the Unlimited tier ($166/mo) removes the contact cap entirely. The two products target different buyers: AI SDR for teams that want full automation, Email Volume for teams that want to control their sequences manually.

Key takeaways

  • AI SDR (Jason): $259/mo for 1K emails, $499/mo for 4K emails
  • Email Volume Starter: $49/mo for 1K active contacts, unlimited emails
  • Email Volume Professional: $89/mo for 3K contacts
  • Email Volume Unlimited: $166/mo for unlimited contacts

Two products, separate pricing

The biggest thing to understand about Reply.io pricing is that AI SDR and Email Volume are separate products. If you want Jason to handle some outreach autonomously and also run manual sequences, you may need both subscriptions. The AI SDR pricing is high for the volume you get.

At $259/mo for 1,000 emails, you are paying $0.26 per email. For comparison, SendKit Essential gives you 75,000 emails for $99/mo, which works out to about $0.001 per email. The value proposition of Reply.io AI SDR is the automation, not the volume.

Key takeaways

  • AI SDR and Email Volume are separate subscriptions
  • AI SDR: $0.26 per email at the starter tier
  • Email Volume contact limits may force upgrades
  • Enterprise AI SDR requires custom pricing

How SendKit compares

Reply.io and SendKit take different approaches. Reply.io is betting on AI-driven autonomous outreach with Jason, while also offering a traditional email volume product. SendKit focuses on infrastructure quality and bundling everything into one plan.

SendKit includes dedicated IPs on every plan, which Reply.io does not offer at any tier. SendKit also includes inbox placement testing, blacklist monitoring, and a built-in dialer on every plan. Where Reply.io has an edge is their AI SDR product for teams that want fully autonomous prospecting.

If you want an AI agent to handle outreach end-to-end, Reply.io offers that. If you want reliable infrastructure with manual control, SendKit delivers more value per dollar.

Key takeaways

  • SendKit Essential ($99/mo): 75K emails, dedicated IPs, all tools included
  • Reply.io Email Volume Professional ($89/mo): 3K contacts, unlimited emails, shared infrastructure
  • Reply.io AI SDR ($259/mo+): autonomous AI outreach, low volume
  • SendKit includes infrastructure advantages Reply.io does not offer
