 "summary": "Sales outreach platform that finds target accounts, spots buying signals and enriches contacts, then runs personalized multichannel sequences (email, LinkedIn, calls) with built-in deliverability tools. An MCP server at app.lemlist.com/mcp puts the same actions inside Claude or ChatGPT: create, update, start and pause campaigns and sequences, manage leads, enrich emails and read team analytics in plain language - the enrichment calls spend credits like anywhere else in the product.",
 "best_for": "outbound teams that live in cold email and want multichannel sequences, warm-up and a big template community in one per-seat tool",
 "skip_if": "you send occasional one-off campaigns — the entry plan starts at $69/month and only pays off with steady outbound volume",
 "honest_knock": "The per-seat plus per-email-account model makes total cost unpredictable as you scale, and reviews flag support response times and the LinkedIn Chrome-extension's reliability.",

Email is $69/month, or $55/month on yearly billing, covering unlimited users and 50,000 emails a month. Multichannel is $109/month per user, or $87/month yearly, with unlimited emails and messages and 5 senders per user. Quarterly billing saves 10% and yearly 20%. Enterprise (5+ users) is quote-only. Contact data is a separate add-on: Lead data enrichment is €20 a month (€16 a month on yearly billing) for 2,000 credits, which the page equates to about 400 emails or 100 phone numbers; unused credits roll over while you stay subscribed. Buying-intent signals are now their own add-on: €29 a month (€21 yearly) for 100 signals.",
