Overview

Artra’s Max agent can research prospects, draft tailored messages, send outreach, qualify replies, and book meetings. Contact management and outreach across email, SMS, LinkedIn, and a dialer make it more than an email sequencer; autonomous prospecting and automated follow-up can cover several stages of outbound work. That breadth is useful for teams consolidating these tasks, but Free Basic has no AI tokens, so its free tier does not support the central AI-agent proposition.

Key features

Research and deliverability

Artra says its contact graph contains more than 2.1 billion contacts, draws on over 200 data sources, updates every 30 seconds, and spans 175 countries. That scale may help with prospect discovery across markets, while monthly enrichment credits determine how much of that research a team can put to work. Email warmup, blacklist monitoring, spam analysis, and SPF/DKIM/DMARC checks give outbound teams tools to manage deliverability rather than treating it as an afterthought.

Channels and connections

Outreach can run through email, SMS, LinkedIn, and a dialer. The browser extension runs LinkedIn sequence touches and prospecting actions through the user’s logged-in browser session, which makes it useful for LinkedIn workflows without replacing the need for that session. Artra documents Gmail, Outlook/Microsoft 365, SendGrid, Twilio, HubSpot, LinkedIn, Stripe, and Okta integrations, plus bi-directional contact, activity, and deal-stage sync with HubSpot or Salesforce.

Scoped personal access tokens and a JSON Agent API let external clients and AI agents connect to Artra. The platform places SSO and audit logs on its enterprise roadmap; its homepage also puts SOC 2 readiness and regional data residency on that roadmap. Gmail data is used for email functions, not advertising, and is not read by humans except in specified cases such as user permission or security investigations.

Pricing

Artra offers a free plan and a free trial. Paid plans are billed annually at the stated monthly rates and save 20%, so compare the annual commitment with your expected usage before choosing a tier.

Plan	Price and allowance	Best fit
Free Basic	Free; no credit card required. 100 emails per day, 100 enrichment credits, no AI tokens, unlimited email warmup, blacklist tool, spam analyzer, and all basic features.	Those exploring basic email deliverability or trying a small daily volume; the lack of AI tokens rules it out for agent-led prospecting.
Professional	59.00 USD per month, billed annually; save 20%. Unlimited emails per day, 2,500 enrichment credits per month, 100K AI tokens per month, LinkedIn connections, lead enrichment, AI co-pilot, social profile views, and all deliverability tools.	Individuals starting outbound prospecting, with email and AI capacity but no listed text or call allowance.
Professional Plus+	99.00 USD per month, billed annually; save 20%. 5,000 enrichment credits per month, 1M AI tokens per month, 1,000 text messages, 300 call minutes, outbound dialer, and custom phone number.	Established sales reps who need meaningful AI capacity and phone and text outreach alongside email.
Scale	400.00 USD per month, billed annually; save 20%. 25,000 enrichment credits per month, 3M AI tokens per month, 5,000 text messages, 1,500 call minutes, call recordings, dedicated support, and custom email and CRM setup.	Larger teams that need higher quotas, recordings, setup help, and dedicated support.

The free tier’s 100-email daily cap and lack of AI tokens make it a limited starting point, while Professional removes the email cap but still leaves phone and text capacity off the plan. Professional Plus+ adds those channels and substantially more AI tokens; Scale is a steep step up in price for higher quotas and team-oriented support and setup. Artra says support typically responds within 24–48 hours, with dedicated support on Scale.

Platforms

Artra runs on the web, through an API, and as a browser extension. The extension’s LinkedIn actions use the user’s logged-in browser session, while the API offers scoped personal access tokens and a JSON Agent API for external clients and agents.

Who it's for

Professional is positioned for individuals beginning outbound prospecting; Professional Plus+ suits established reps who need more AI and direct phone and SMS capacity; Scale targets larger teams. Artra is a stronger fit for workflows spanning research, enrichment, deliverability, and several outreach channels than for buyers who only need an email tool or have no use for AI-led prospecting. Free Basic is most useful for trying the basic features and deliverability tools, not for running Max.

Pros and cons

Pros: Max covers research through reply qualification and meeting booking, reducing the need to split those steps across separate tools.
Pros: Multiple outreach channels, deliverability checks, and documented CRM sync support a connected outbound workflow.
Pros: Professional includes unlimited daily emails and 2,500 monthly enrichment credits, while higher tiers add substantial AI, text, and call allowances.
Cons: Free Basic has no AI tokens, and its 100-email daily cap limits its use as a full prospecting plan.
Cons: Phone and SMS capacity start at Professional Plus+, while the annual billing terms make the paid monthly rates an annual commitment.
Cons: SSO and audit logs, along with SOC 2 readiness and regional data residency, are on the enterprise roadmap rather than stated as current capabilities.

Alternatives

For a broader sales-cloud option, consider Salesforce Sales Cloud, which has a free plan and a Starter Suite priced at 25.00 USD per month per user, billed monthly. Buzz is another freemium option; its Core plan costs 79.00 USD per month per seat, billed monthly, with 500 credits per month and 10,000 records per month export. Choose Instantly if a paid service with a free trial and a 47.00 USD monthly Growth plan is a better fit; it offers separate Credits and Outreach plans, and Growth (Credits) includes 1,500–2,000 monthly credits and a database of more than 450 million B2B leads.

Verdict

Choose Artra if you want one system for prospect research, AI-assisted outreach, deliverability, and follow-up across several channels, and can match a paid tier to your expected usage. Professional is the sensible starting point for email-focused individual prospecting; teams that depend on calls, texts, or larger AI allowances should budget for Professional Plus+ or Scale. Look elsewhere if you need a capable free AI plan or do not want an annual billing commitment.
