Ken's view, from Artisan's public pages. It is worth the price if: - You want an email-first AI BDR with a published entry price and a 30-day credit trial before you pay. - Your reps call, and you want call steps and a power dialer in the same sequence as email. - You want a sales-led plan with a CSM and Salesforce sync, sized around 2,500 or 6,000 leads a month. Limits to weigh against the price: - No documented LinkedIn step: the site mentions social outreach, but the help center lists 3 sequence step types, email, manual task and human call. - Ava does not place calls; call steps queue leads for your reps on the power dialer at $75 a seat a month ($67 billed annually). - Mailboxes and phone numbers are billed separately in dollars, and their prices are not published. - On the self-serve table, Salesforce sync, SSO and audit logs need Enterprise, and cross-sell campaigns and webhooks need Employee. ## Cheaper or Simpler Options **In short:** Ken is listed first: free to start, then $200 a month with unlimited seats. 1 of the 3 other tools listed starts below Artisan's $250 a month; the rest have the next lowest published starting prices in the same category, cheapest first, each with the date we checked it. **Starting prices of other tools to compare with Artisan** | Tool | Starting price | Free plan | Checked | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [Ken](/pricing) (ours) | Free, then Platform at $200 a month, or $160 a month billed annually, unlimited seats | Yes: 1,000 credits once, no card | Oct 17, 2026 | | [Relevance AI](/compare/relevance-ai/pricing) | $19 a month (Pro, billed annually; $29 on monthly billing) | No | Oct 17, 2026 | | [Amplemarket](/compare/amplemarket/pricing) | $600 a month (Startup, billed annually only) | Trial only | Oct 17, 2026 | | [11x](/compare/11x/pricing) | $3,750 a month (Growth, billed annually only) | No | Oct 17, 2026 | Starting price is the lowest published price on each tool's pricing page, on the date shown.
