Product
What is ColdReach
ColdReach is AI cold email software for B2B teams. It finds decision makers, verifies their addresses, writes a personal email for every prospect from their company website and sends multi-step email and LinkedIn sequences from your own mailboxes at a safe pace.
Who is ColdReach for
SDRs and BDRs at B2B companies, Heads of Sales who own pipeline and tooling, founders doing founder-led sales, outbound agencies running campaigns for clients and recruiters doing targeted outreach to companies.
Which tools does ColdReach replace
One subscription covers prospect data, email verification, AI writing, sequences, mailbox ramp-up and rotation, a classified reply inbox, A/B tests, analytics and CRM sync. Most teams use it instead of a separate database, verifier, writing tool, sequencer and ramp-up add-on.
Does ColdReach work with my CRM
Yes. Starter exports and imports CSV, Growth syncs two-way with 2 popular CRMs, Scale syncs with all supported CRMs and adds webhooks, and Enterprise adds the API. See cold email crm integration.
Deliverability
Will ColdReach hurt my domain
ColdReach is built to protect it. Sending ramps up gradually on new mailboxes, rotates across your connected mailboxes, respects a daily cap per mailbox and pauses a mailbox automatically when bounces or complaints rise. Addresses are verified before they enter a sequence.
Do you send from your own servers
No. ColdReach never sends from its own mail servers. Every email leaves from a mailbox you connect, Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 by OAuth, or any other mailbox by SMTP and IMAP.
How many mailboxes can I connect
Starter connects 3 mailboxes, Growth 15, Scale 50 and Enterprise 150. Read how ramp-up works on our email warmup tool page.
Do you check SPF, DKIM and DMARC
Yes. ColdReach checks SPF, DKIM and DMARC for connected mailboxes, as described on our email deliverability page.
Data and compliance
Where does the prospect data come from
From lawful sources: public company websites, public business registries and licensed business data partners. Every record shows its source and last-checked date in the app.
Is cold email legal
In the United States, business cold email is legal when it follows the CAN-SPAM Act: accurate headers, honest subject lines, your physical postal address and a working opt-out. In the EU, GDPR usually means a documented legitimate interest. Our can-spam cold email rules page explains both. We do not give legal advice.
What does ColdReach do about unsubscribes
Every email carries an unsubscribe link, and an unsubscribe suppresses the contact at once across all sequences and mailboxes.
How is my account data protected
Mailboxes connect by OAuth with access you can revoke, data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and Enterprise adds SSO with SAML, roles and an audit log. See cold email software security.
AI
How does the AI write each email
For each prospect ColdReach reads the company website and public company profile, then writes a first line and a tailored body in your voice and tone. Our ai sdr page shows the steps.
Can I edit the AI emails
Yes. You can edit any draft, and by default a person approves AI-written emails before the first send.
Does the AI answer replies on its own
No. The AI sorts replies into 6 categories: interested, meeting request, not now, wrong person, unsubscribe and out of office. Your team writes the answers.
Does ColdReach log into LinkedIn for me
No. ColdReach never logs into LinkedIn on your behalf. LinkedIn steps are manual tasks in your sequence, such as view profile, connect and message, that the rep completes.
Why are LinkedIn steps tasks and not automation
Tasks keep your LinkedIn account in your own hands and keep each touch personal. ColdReach reminds the rep, tracks the task and moves the sequence forward when it is done. See linkedin outreach.
Billing
How much does ColdReach cost
Starter is $49 a month, Growth $149, Scale $499 and Enterprise $1,499. Billed yearly, the same plans cost $24, $74, $249 and $749 a month. Every plan is listed on cold email software pricing.
How much do I save with yearly billing
Yearly billing saves 50 percent on every plan. Growth, for example, is $888 a year instead of $149 every month.
Can I cancel anytime
Yes. You can cancel anytime, and your plan stays active until the end of the period you paid for.
Do you offer refunds
Payments are final, with the exceptions described in our Refund Policy. Cancelling stops the next renewal and does not reverse a payment already made.
How are usage limits counted
Limits count consumption in the billing period. Each verified contact added, AI email generated, verification run and export uses quota, and the full allowance returns with the next period.
Does deleting contacts give quota back
No. Deleting a contact, an email or a sequence never returns quota. What you used in the period stays counted.
