# Alternatives to Rox

> Source: https://theagentsindex.com/rox/alternatives (current datasheets, evidence-ranked)

Candidates share the baseline category or are previously researched peers. Requirements, preserved strengths, explicit trade-offs and research coverage decide the order; paid tier does not.

## Shortlist

### 1. Artisan

AI BDR that runs outbound end to end: finds leads, sends personalized email, handles replies, books meetings.

**Research coverage:** 34/35 criteria

**Where it improves on Rox:**
- [Done-for-you service: partial — You run the software, but Artisan attaches people to it: every business plan includes a CSM and guided onboarding, and Enterprise adds a forward-deployed strategist, engineer and campaign specialist who build and launch the rollout. Self-serve Startups plans are unassisted.](https://www.artisan.co/pricing)
- [Runs autonomously: yes — Ava runs the full loop unattended (prospecting, sending, reply handling and meeting booking), with approvals optional rather than required. A fuller 'Full self-driving Ava' mode is still listed as Soon in the plan table.](https://www.artisan.co/ai-sales-agent)
- [MCP server: yes — Artisan runs an authenticated MCP server on every plan, exposing about 30 account tools: prospect search, list building, enrichment, campaign drafting and credit balance. Permissions are per tool and no API key is involved. It cannot launch a campaign; changes save as drafts. A separate unauthenticated MCP server exposes only marketing pages.](https://support.artisan.co/claude-connector)

**Trade-offs against Rox:**
- [Open models: no — Ava runs on models Artisan owns; no open-weight or self-supplied model option appears in the four-tier plan comparison, including Enterprise.](https://www.artisan.co/terms-of-use)
- [Model choice: no — The vendor picks the model. Artisan describes the models as its own, and the 30-plus row plan comparison contains no model-selection row on any tier.](https://www.artisan.co/privacy-policy)
- [Self-hosted: no — Artisan operates the servers; no self-hosted, on-premise or private-cloud deployment appears anywhere in the four-tier plan comparison, including Enterprise.](https://www.artisan.co/privacy-policy)

### 2. Warmly

Identifies anonymous website visitors and runs AI inbound and outbound GTM agents on one shared context graph.

**Research coverage:** 35/35 criteria

**Where it improves on Rox:**
- [Done-for-you service: partial — Software you run, with an optional dedicated Warmly engineer and outsourced SDR placements sold as separate service lines.](https://www.warmly.ai/p/services/forward-deployed-engineer)
- [Runs autonomously: yes — The GTM Brain layer decides and executes without waiting for a human to act on a dashboard.](https://www.warmly.ai/how-it-works)
- [GPT: yes — All AI features run on OpenAI's pre-trained models; Warmly trains no models of its own.](https://help.warmly.ai/articles/6933942349-ai-in-warmly-faq)

**Trade-offs against Rox:**
- [Agent permissions: partial — Agents act on their own; humans get visibility and an override on each decision rather than an approval gate.](https://www.warmly.ai/how-it-works)
- [Claude: no — The AI FAQ names OpenAI as the provider of all Warmly AI.](https://help.warmly.ai/articles/6933942349-ai-in-warmly-faq)
- [Open models: no — Inference is OpenAI-only by the vendor's own statement; no open-weight option is offered.](https://help.warmly.ai/articles/6933942349-ai-in-warmly-faq)

### 3. 11x

AI SDR and inbound phone agent for outbound prospecting and real-time lead qualification.

**Research coverage:** 28/35 criteria

**Where it improves on Rox:**
- [Runs autonomously: yes — Vendor claims the digital workers execute complex tasks without supervision; Alice books meetings on autopilot.](https://www.11x.ai/)
- [Seat model: yes — Seats are capped per tier: 5 end users on Growth, 10 on Pro, unlimited on Enterprise.](https://www.11x.ai/products/alice/pricing)
- [Admin controls: yes — Approval workflows gate outgoing messages, and CRM access is constrained by granular read/write permissions.](https://www.11x.ai/platform/integrations/crm-integration)

**Trade-offs against Rox:**
- [Self-hosted: no — Single-tenant hosting on your own infrastructure is not offered; all customer data sits in the vendor's AWS estate.](https://www.11x.ai/security)
- [Free tier: no — No free or self-serve tier: the entry plan is an annual paid contract and every plan CTA routes to sales.](https://www.11x.ai/products/alice/pricing)

### 4. Lead Scorer

AI SDR that sources companies from the French State registry, scores them and drafts outreach for your approval.

**Research coverage:** 32/35 criteria

**Where it improves on Rox:**
- [Done-for-you service: partial — Software you run yourself on Free and Pro; the Done for You tier at EUR 299/month adds a setup interview, the vendor implementing the acquisition strategy and a monthly review.](https://lead-scorer.com/#pricing)
- [Claude: yes — Claude, Claude Code and Codex connect to the MCP endpoint and call every tool; the model behind the vendor's own in-app drafting is not named.](https://lead-scorer.com/docs/getting-started)
- [GPT: yes — ChatGPT developer mode and Codex are supported MCP clients; as with Claude this is the assistant driving the product, not a model the vendor runs for you.](https://lead-scorer.com/docs/getting-started)

**Trade-offs against Rox:**
- [Multi-agent: partial — A drafting model (Luna) and a second reviewing model run in sequence on every message; the vendor describes a pipeline of models, not agents negotiating a shared task.](https://lead-scorer.com/llms.txt)
- [Agent permissions: partial — It may discover, enrich, score, draft and queue on its own; spending and sending are fenced. Billable tools estimate first and refuse oversized calls, and no tool can put a campaign into sending.](https://lead-scorer.com/agent)
- [A company can buy it: no — Sold to individuals. Accounts are single-user with isolated data; a shared workspace is not something you can buy today.](https://lead-scorer.com/use-cases/agency-prospecting)

### 5. Amplemarket

AI sales platform whose Duo agents find buying signals and draft multichannel outreach for revenue teams.

**Research coverage:** 34/35 criteria

**Where it improves on Rox:**
- [GPT: yes — OpenAI is the named subprocessor behind Duo Copywriter and the reply assistant, and ChatGPT is also a supported MCP client.](https://trust.amplemarket.com/subprocessors)
- [In your editor: partial — No IDE extension of its own: Cursor reaches Amplemarket data through the same MCP server as Claude and ChatGPT.](https://www.amplemarket.com/integrations/cursor)
- [On the command line: partial — Amplemarket ships no CLI; the MCP server is reachable from Claude Code at a terminal.](https://www.amplemarket.com/integrations/mcp-model-context-protocol)

**Trade-offs against Rox:**
- [Multi-agent: partial — Distinct agents split one outbound motion: daily signal scanning, research, then sequence writing. The vendor never describes them coordinating or handing off.](https://www.amplemarket.com/duo)
- [Agent permissions: partial — In-app the agent stops at a draft for the rep to send; over MCP the per-action approval prompt is enforced by the AI client, not by Amplemarket.](https://knowledge.amplemarket.com/articles/4869045774-why-claude-says-no-approval-received-on-an-amplemarket-action-and-how-to-fix-it)
- [Open models: no — The complete 18-entry subprocessor register names OpenAI as the only inference provider; there is no model selection, no bring-your-own weights and no self-hosting.](https://trust.amplemarket.com/subprocessors)

### 6. Unify

AI outbound agents that research accounts, build prospect lists and run email sequences.

**Research coverage:** 34/35 criteria

**Where it improves on Rox:**
- [Runs autonomously: yes — Plays run signal-triggered workflows unattended, chaining research, prospecting and sequence enrolment.](https://www.unifygtm.com/product/plays)
- [GPT: yes — GPT is the model on every tier; the newer GPT release is reserved for Business.](https://www.unifygtm.com/pricing)
- [In your editor: partial — No native IDE plugin; Unify reaches Cursor via its MCP server and official plugin.](https://docs.unifygtm.com/developers/mcp/getting-started)

**Trade-offs against Rox:**
- [Multi-agent: partial — Agents are composable steps inside a Play rather than peers negotiating a task; multi-step agents research, qualify and personalise.](https://www.unifygtm.com/product/plays)
- [Agent permissions: partial — Reps can view but not edit Plays or exclusion settings; only Admins configure what the agent may act on.](https://docs.unifygtm.com/reference/management/user-management)
- [Claude: no — The plan table enumerates model access as GPT only; Anthropic appears as a backend subprocessor, not a selectable model.](https://www.unifygtm.com/pricing)
