Overview

Artra’s Max agent researches prospects, drafts personalized copy, sends outreach, qualifies replies, and books meetings. Contact management and outreach cover email, SMS, LinkedIn, and a dialer, with autonomous prospecting, AI lead qualification, and automated follow-up supporting the wider sales process. That makes Artra a more complete outbound option than a tool focused only on email; the practical constraint is that key usage allowances vary considerably by tier.

Key features

Prospecting 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 indexes 175 countries. That reach is useful for teams searching across markets, but enrichment-credit quotas—not the size of the graph—set the pace of sustained prospecting. Email warmup, blacklist monitoring, spam analysis, and SPF/DKIM/DMARC checks add tools for protecting deliverability as campaigns grow.

Channels and workflow connections

Documented integrations include Gmail, Outlook/Microsoft 365, SendGrid, Twilio, HubSpot, LinkedIn, Stripe, and Okta. HubSpot and Salesforce support bi-directional syncing for contacts, activity, and deal stages, a useful fit for teams that need outbound work reflected in their CRM. The browser extension runs LinkedIn sequence touches and prospecting actions from the user's logged-in browser session. Artra also documents scoped personal access tokens and a JSON Agent API for external clients and AI agents.

Privacy and security

Artra's privacy policy says Gmail data is used to provide email functions, not for advertising, and is not read by humans except in specified cases such as user permission or security investigations. SSO and audit logs are on the enterprise roadmap; SOC 2 readiness and regional data residency are also described as roadmap items, so teams requiring those capabilities now should look elsewhere.

Pricing

Artra uses a freemium model, with paid plans from 59.00 USD per month billed annually, saving 20%. The free plan does not require a credit card. A free trial is also offered.

Plan	Price	What it includes
Free Basic	0.00 USD per free	100 emails per day, 100 enrichment credits, no AI tokens, unlimited email warmup, blacklist tool, spam analyzer, and basic features.
Professional	59.00 USD per month, billed annually	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.
Professional Plus+	99.00 USD per month, billed annually	5,000 enrichment credits per month, 1M AI tokens per month, 1,000 text messages, 300 call minutes, outbound dialer, and custom phone number.
Scale	400.00 USD per month, billed annually	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.

Free Basic is a useful way to try email outreach and deliverability tools, but its 100-email daily cap and lack of AI tokens make it a poor fit for sustained AI-led prospecting. Professional is positioned for individuals starting outbound prospecting; unlimited daily email and 100K AI tokens make it the entry point for regular use, though its 2,500 monthly enrichment credits constrain heavier research. Professional Plus+ targets established sales reps: its larger AI allowance and included texts and call minutes make it better suited to mixed-channel campaigns. Scale is aimed at larger teams that need substantially higher quotas, call recordings, dedicated support, and custom setup. No seat allowances are stated for these plans, so teams should confirm how access is handled before choosing a tier.

Platforms

Artra is available on the web, as a browser extension, and through an API. The extension's LinkedIn activity runs in the user's logged-in browser session; the documented API supports scoped personal access tokens and external clients or AI agents.

Who it's for

Artra suits individuals starting outbound prospecting, established reps coordinating email with calls or texts, and larger teams that need higher usage allowances and dedicated support. It is less suitable for email-only users who want to avoid paying for unused channels, or organizations that require SSO, audit logs, or the roadmap security commitments today.

Pros and cons

Pros

One workflow from research to booking: Max handles prospect research, personalized drafts, outreach, reply qualification, and meeting booking.
Broad channel coverage: Email, SMS, LinkedIn, and a dialer support campaigns beyond email alone.
CRM and developer connections: Bi-directional HubSpot or Salesforce sync and a documented Agent API suit teams linking outbound work to existing systems.
Free email tools: Free Basic includes unlimited warmup, blacklist monitoring, and spam analysis, despite its modest sending and enrichment caps.

Cons

Free Basic has no AI tokens: Users must move to a paid plan for AI co-pilot capacity.
Quotas vary sharply by tier: Text, call, AI, and enrichment allowances can require a higher-priced plan as outbound activity expands.
Enterprise security capabilities are roadmap items: SSO, audit logs, SOC 2 readiness, and regional data residency are not presented as current capabilities.

Alternatives

Consider BOSRAI if a freemium option with API and web access and a free allowance of 150 verified contacts per month, five messages per day, and one seat fits a smaller prospecting workload. Regie.ai offers a free pool of 250 one-time credits shared by up to 10 people for research, enrichment, drafting, and agents, making it worth comparing for a team that wants to start with shared credits. Persana AI has a free plan with 50 credits, 50 emails, five phones, and searches for up to 500 people per company; compare it if those allowances align better with your prospecting mix. SalesDeveloper.ai is a paid option with a Starter plan at 20.00 USD per month per user, no minimum, and two modules; it may suit buyers who want modular, per-user pricing rather than Artra's annual-billed tiers. Buzz is another freemium sales-assistant option. ProspectHalo is a freemium alternative with a Pro plan priced at 59.00 USD per month. Alokite offers a free plan with one user, four outreach inboxes, one active campaign, 90 emails per day, and 50 monthly enrichments, but excludes LinkedIn. Browse AI Sales Assistants for more options, or consider LeadLoft AI SDR Agents.

Verdict

Choose Artra if you want an AI sales agent to connect prospect research, multichannel outreach, qualification, and follow-up, with CRM syncing and deliverability tools alongside it. The key reason to look elsewhere is the combination of tier-dependent quotas and enterprise security capabilities still on the roadmap; email-focused or security-sensitive teams may find its breadth less compelling than a narrower fit.
