An all-in-one outreach platform that helps you personalize cold emails and automate multi-channel follow-ups.
lemlist is a multichannel sales outreach platform, founded in January 2018 in Paris by Guillaume Moubeche, Vianney Lecroart, and François Lecroart, starting with just $1,000 in capital. It's part of lempire, a bootstrapped company that also owns lemwarm, lemcal, and the AI meeting tool Claap, now integrated directly into lemlist's AI agent features.
The company reached roughly $53 million in annual revenue with over 50,000 customers as of 2026, remaining largely self-funded aside from a single 2021 secondary transaction. lemlist has leaned heavily into AI over the past year with lemAgent, an AI system that researches leads, detects buying intent, and personalizes outreach with less manual setup than a standard sequence builder.
The most common use case is running outreach across more than one channel without switching tools. A solo consultant sends a cold email, and if there's no reply within a set window, lemlist automatically follows up with a LinkedIn connection request, keeping the whole sequence in one workflow instead of managing email and LinkedIn separately.
lemAgent and lemlist's Intent Signal Agents flag when a prospect shows a buying signal, like a recent funding round or a job change, and suggest a relevant, timed outreach sequence rather than a generic cold email sent at random.
A founder targeting a short list of high-value accounts uses the Unified Inbox to manage every reply, across email, LinkedIn, and SMS, from a single screen, rather than checking three separate apps for responses.
The Email plan is unlimited users sharing a 50,000-email/month pool; the Multichannel plan is priced per user with unlimited messaging across every channel. These aren't just different price points, they're different sharing models, and picking the wrong one for your actual usage pattern matters.
AI agents that research leads, detect real-time buying signals (funding events, job changes, LinkedIn engagement), and suggest relevant, timed sequences rather than requiring you to manually decide who to contact and when.
Access to the lead database is included in every plan, but finding a specific verified email or phone number draws from a separate credit pool, charged only when the lookup succeeds, not for failed attempts.
Email, LinkedIn (visits, follows, invites, messages, voice notes), SMS, and in-app calling run from the same sequence builder, available starting on the Multichannel plan.
lemwarm (automated warm-up), rotating IPs, and a Deliverability Hub are included on every plan, including the cheapest, rather than gated to higher tiers.
Solo founders and consultants who want outreach across more than email, LinkedIn included, without juggling separate tools for each channel.
A solo founder who only sends cold email and has no interest in LinkedIn or SMS outreach. The Email plan works for that, but paying for Multichannel's per-user pricing to only use email would be overpaying for channels never touched.

Free Plan: Not available. lemlist offers a 14-day free trial with full Multichannel plan access, no credit card required. After the trial, you keep your account, campaigns, and leads, but can't send new campaigns until you subscribe.
Email — $69/month (billed monthly) / $55/month (billed yearly): Unlimited users, 50,000 emails/month shared across your whole team. Includes the lead database, email and phone finder, lemAgent, AI agents, unified inbox, and deliverability tools. Email only, no LinkedIn, SMS, or calling.
Multichannel — $109/month per user (billed monthly) / $87/month per user (billed yearly), marked "Popular": Everything in Email, plus unlimited emails and messages, 5 senders per user, LinkedIn automation, SMS automation, built-in call dialer and VoIP integrations, task management, and a WhatsApp add-on.
Enterprise: Custom pricing, built for teams of 5+ users. Adds custom user roles, dedicated account manager, custom terms of use, SSO/SAML, and 1:1 onboarding.
Add-Ons (Pay-Per-Success Credits): 1 credit = $0.01. Verified email lookup costs 5 credits; a phone number costs 20 credits (1,000 credits = $10 = 200 emails or 50 phone numbers). Intent signals range from 20 credits (web visit) up to 400+ credits (LinkedIn engagement). You're only charged when a lookup succeeds.
Annual vs. Monthly: Annual billing saves 20% on both main plans; quarterly billing saves 10%.
If You Cancel: No stated lock-in beyond your chosen billing cycle. Trial data (campaigns, leads) remains accessible even without an active subscription.
⚠️ Worth knowing: the Email plan's "unlimited users" is a shared pool, not unlimited per person. A solo founder is fine either way, but if you're picturing "unlimited" as unlimited-per-user the way Multichannel works, you'll hit the shared 50,000/month cap faster than expected once a second person joins.
Prices last verified August 2026. Check lemlist's pricing page for current rates before subscribing.
Separate tools for email sequencing and LinkedIn outreach, since both run from the same campaign and the same lead list.
Manually researching whether a prospect is worth reaching out to right now, since Intent Signal Agents surface buying signals automatically.
Checking multiple inboxes for replies across channels, replaced by the Unified Inbox consolidating everything into one view.
Your CRM. lemlist syncs with HubSpot, Salesforce, and Pipedrive rather than replacing either as your system of record.
Your actual mailboxes. lemlist is the sequencing and automation layer, not the email provider, so it connects to Google, Microsoft, or SMTP accounts you already have.
