The verdict

Instantly scores higher, 100 against 92, and the whole gap sits in deliverability: 40/40 versus 32/40. Workflow, API and AI agents, and buying terms are full marks for both. The only items Instantly confirms and Saleshandy doesn't are dedicated IPs and pre-warmed inboxes. Everything else the index checks, from warm-up in the price to replacement of burned inboxes and an official MCP server, both confirm. Saleshandy costs less to start and less per inbox, so it suits teams buying many inboxes that don't need dedicated IPs. Instantly suits teams that want pre-warmed inboxes or dedicated IPs in the same account as their campaigns.
