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. 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 SEObot:**
- [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)
- [Free tier: yes — Self-serve free account with 250 credits a month, no card and no sales call.](https://www.warmly.ai/p/try-for-free)
- [Seat model: partial — Seats are named one-per-person for licence-based services, but no per-seat price, floor or ceiling is published; plans are priced by credits.](https://www.warmly.ai/p/terms-of-service)

**Trade-offs against SEObot:**
- [Open source: no — Proprietary hosted service; the terms restrict access to Warmly's own interface and no source is published.](https://www.warmly.ai/p/terms-of-service)
- [Data residency: partial — The enterprise FAQ claims configurable US, EU and APAC regions, while the architecture section lists only AWS US with GCP EU available.](https://www.warmly.ai/p/solutions/enterprise)
- [Getting out: partial — Data exports to CSV or syncs to the CRM, but the credit pool refills each calendar month rather than rolling unused credits over.](https://www.warmly.ai/p/data)

### 2. 11x

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

**Research coverage:** 28/35 criteria

**Where it improves on SEObot:**
- [Agent permissions: yes — Messages can be gated behind approval workflows, or the worker can run unattended on autopilot.](https://www.11x.ai/platform/research-messaging/ai-personalization)
- [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 SEObot:**
- [API access: partial — API access is stated as included on Julian's entry Growth plan; on Alice it appears as 'Custom Integrations + API' in the Enterprise bullet list.](https://www.11x.ai/products/julian/pricing)
- [Data residency: partial — Data is processed in the United States with DPAs for EU customers; no choice of region is published.](https://www.11x.ai/legal/privacy-policy)

### 3. 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 SEObot:**
- [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)
- [Agent permissions: yes — Autonomy is dialable per campaign: approval-before-send, locked tone/CTA/length, banned phrases, budget caps, reply-sensitivity and escalation rules decide when a human steps in.](https://www.artisan.co/pricing)
- [Free tier: yes — A permanent Free plan at $0/mo with 300 credits/mo and no credit card, limited to lead search, lists, enrichment and agent swarm research; campaigns and integrations need a paid plan. New accounts also get a 10K-credit 30-day trial.](https://www.artisan.co/pricing)

**Trade-offs against SEObot:**
- [Open source: no — Proprietary and closed: Artisan asserts ownership of all source code and trained models, and the terms forbid decompiling or reverse engineering them.](https://www.artisan.co/terms-of-use)
- [API access: partial — There is an inbound HTTP API, not a general one: selecting Webhook as a campaign data source mints a per-campaign endpoint under api.artisan.co and an sk_live_ API key, rate-limited to 10 requests per minute. Webhooks as a data source start on the Employee plan; no full public REST API is documented.](https://support.artisan.co/webhook-documentation)
- [Data residency: partial — Residency is disclosed but not selectable. Servers are in the United States only, with no EU or regional hosting option published; EEA, UK and Swiss transfers are handled by safeguards and an EU representative rather than local storage.](https://www.artisan.co/privacy-policy)

### 4. Qualified

Enterprise AI SDR agent that engages inbound visitors across chat, voice, video and email.

**Research coverage:** 33/35 criteria

**Where it improves on SEObot:**
- [Seat model: partial — Named user accounts exist for sales reps plus a designated Qualified Admin, but no per-seat price, minimum or ceiling is published.](https://www.qualified.com/implementation)
- [Admin controls: yes — Two constraints are documented: goals, guardrails and rules-of-engagement configured in Agent Studio, and the Salesforce integration user's object and field permissions bounding what the agent can read or write.](https://www.qualified.com/trust)
- [Certifications: yes — Annual SOC 2 Type II audit, GDPR commitment with SCCs, CCPA service-provider posture, annual third-party penetration testing.](https://www.qualified.com/trust)

**Trade-offs against SEObot:**
- [Multi-agent: partial — The top tier adds multiple agent profiles and multiple production instances; the vendor never describes several agents coordinating on one task.](https://www.qualified.com/pricing)
- [Open source: no — Source is held in a private repository with role-restricted employee access.](https://www.qualified.com/trust)
- [How it meters: partial — Custom quote with no published metering unit; the only visible cost dimensions are tier gates on websites, contact-database volume and production instances.](https://www.qualified.com/pricing)

### 5. Rox

Revenue agents that research accounts, prospect, run outbound and manage deals, metered in Agent Actions.

**Research coverage:** 35/35 criteria

**Where it improves on SEObot:**
- [Agent permissions: yes — Agentflows are scoped to a chosen tool set, agents inherit the acting user's record and field permissions, and sequence sends can be scheduled, previewed or cancelled before they go out.](https://docs.rox.com/development/about-rox/release-notes)
- [Free tier: yes — Both self-serve plans start free and are upgraded to paid ('Try for free then upgrade for'); no card requirement and no free-tier action allowance is published.](https://www.rox.com/pricing)
- [Seat model: partial — Not licensed per seat - you buy Agent Actions - but Individual is capped at 1 user and the plan comparison caps Teams at 50 users while the Teams card claims unlimited seats; Enterprise is unlimited.](https://docs.rox.com/development/about-rox/release-notes)

**Trade-offs against SEObot:**
- [Runs autonomously: partial — Agents fire on schedules, deal events, transcript completion and webhooks, and auto-prospecting can enrol good-fit contacts without a manual pass; Rox's own engineering docs still say critical actions are queued for human review.](https://docs.rox.com/development/product/custom-agents/what-is-a-custom-agent)
- [GPT: partial — OpenAI, LLC is a named AI service-provider subprocessor under zero data retention; as with every model in Rox, the vendor routes it and the buyer cannot pick it.](https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vQl5mqWohdM-CHkz-86n3-C_VVAEonCsZH8B5yJVZoy9bQpwpCGA5SOlDvvmDD_1ZiOYXMZOELXbzeg/pub)
- [Open source: no — Proprietary hosted service: the terms grant no licence to the software and forbid attempts to discover its source code; no repository or licence is published anywhere on the site.](https://www.rox.com/legal/terms-and-conditions)

### 6. 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 SEObot:**
- [Free tier: partial — A free trial on every plan, advertised as unlocking 1,000 leads, but there is no free tier and getting an account runs through a form or demo request.](https://www.amplemarket.com/pricing)
- [Seat model: yes — Per seat with a floor of 2 users on Startup, 4 on Growth and 10 on Elite; extra seats are purchasable and no ceiling is published.](https://www.amplemarket.com/pricing)
- [Admin controls: yes — Custom roles plus account-wide guardrails on what outreach may do, and an enforced AI messaging setting for tone and value propositions.](https://knowledge.amplemarket.com/articles/5152680997-roles-permissions)

**Trade-offs against SEObot:**
- [Runs autonomously: partial — Agents research and draft unattended, but the vendor states reps keep full control to review and edit before anything is sent.](https://www.amplemarket.com/duo-inbox)
- [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)
- [Open source: no — Closed and proprietary: the API terms forbid reverse engineering or derivative works, and no source repository is published.](https://www.amplemarket.com/legal/api-terms)
