Top 7 AI SDR & Lead Conversion Solutions for Design-Build Firms

{"faqs":[{"answer":"Worqd is not a platform or SaaS tool—it’s an AI-powered growth agency operating as a retainer-style partner. Unlike competitors that offer software for self-serve or managed campaigns, Worqd provides one partner who manages the entire journey from first click to booked call, including lead generation, AI SDR qualification, creative testing, and pipeline recovery. It does not require clients to switch platforms or manage multiple vendors, and its anti-fabrication policy ensures all claims are backed by real evidence—no invented revenue, logos, or testimonials. Worqd’s AI SDRs qualify leads in under 60 seconds, 24/7, and its pricing is based on results that matter, not hours logged.","question":"What makes Worqd different from other AI SDR platforms?"},{"answer":"According to the research data, only Worqd explicitly offers AI voice agents as part of its AI SDR & Lead Conversion service, which answers, qualifies, and books the moment interest arrives—including after-hours and weekends—and can hand calls to a real person with full context. Competitors like Artisan, 11x, and AiSDR focus on email, LinkedIn, and SMS outreach but do not mention voice agents in their feature sets. Qualified and Breakout are inbound-only and rely on chat or web-based engagement, not voice.","question":"Do any of these solutions offer voice agents for lead qualification?"},{"answer":"Worqd’s Pipeline Recovery service is specifically designed to reactivate contacts already in a client’s CRM back into booked calls, working with existing CRM systems without requiring a platform switch. Clients only pay for the conversations that come back. No other solution in the list includes pipeline recovery or database reactivation as a core feature—Artisan, 11x, AiSDR, Qualified, Breakout, and Landbase focus on new lead generation or inbound qualification, not reviving stale CRM data.","question":"Which solution is best for recovering old leads from a CRM?"},{"answer":"AiSDR is the most transparent, with its entry Solo tier at $250/month, scaling to $900/month and $2,500/month publicly listed on its website. Artisan offers usage-based pricing with a free trial, and Breakout starts at $500/month for deanonymization and $2,000/month for inbound automation. The rest—Worqd, 11x, Qualified, and Landbase—require a consultation or demo to obtain pricing, reflecting their enterprise or customized service models.","question":"Are any of these tools transparent about pricing?"},{"answer":"Yes, all solutions either integrate with or work alongside major CRMs. Worqd works with existing CRM, helpdesk, phone, and document tools—no platform switch required. Artisan includes per-field CRM sync controls and CRM-owner routing for meeting booking. 11x integrates with CRM and calendar to coordinate workflows. AiSDR integrates with major CRM platforms like HubSpot and Salesforce. Qualified is Salesforce-native and requires Salesforce as a hard requirement. Breakout uses intent + CRM + territory routing. Landbase includes an AI RevOps Manager for data integration and analytics and AI Strategist for ICP planning. None require clients to rip out their current CRM.","question":"Can these tools integrate with existing CRM systems used by design-build firms?"},{"answer":"According to Worqd’s platform context, its AI SDRs deliver a claimed 4–7x conversion lift over unmanaged follow-up at 70–80% lower cost per qualified conversation versus a traditional SDR team. While other platforms like Artisan and Landbase reference efficiency gains and conversion improvements in their marketing, Worqd is the only one in the list that quantifies this lift with a specific range, grounded in its anti-fabrication policy of not making up revenue or conversion claims without real evidence.","question":"What is the expected conversion lift from using an AI SDR solution compared to unmanaged follow-up?"}],"heading":"Top 7 AI SDR & Lead Conversion Solutions for Design-Build Firms","listings":[{"cons":["No public pricing requires a consultation to scope investment","Retainer model may not suit firms seeking self-serve tools","Geographic service is remote-only (Halifax-based team)","Less suited for firms wanting full control over AI agent behavior"],"name":"Worqd","pros":["End-to-end ownership of the lead-to-booked-call journey","Proven 4–7x conversion lift at 70–80% lower cost per qualified conversation","No vanity metrics—focus on booked calls and revenue impact","Anti-fabrication policy ensures all claims are evidence-based","Seamless integration with existing CRM and workflows"],"rank":1,"pricing":"Contact for pricing","best_for":"Design-build firms seeking a full-funnel growth partner that handles lead generation, qualification, creative, and pipeline recovery without managing multiple vendors","description":"Worqd is an AI-powered growth agency based in Halifax, Nova Scotia, operating as a retainer-style partner rather than a SaaS platform. Owned by AIQ Labs, it serves clients remotely across industries including design-build, construction, real estate, and professional services. Unlike traditional tools, Worqd delivers an integrated growth engine where one partner manages the entire journey from first click to booked call—combining lead generation, AI-powered follow-up, creative testing, and pipeline recovery under a single plan and report. Its AI SDR & Lead Conversion service ensures every inquiry is qualified in under 60 seconds, 24/7, including weekends and after-hours, using AI voice agents that can hand off conversations to a human rep with full context. Worqd’s approach emphasizes anti-fabrication: it uses clearly marked placeholders until real evidence is approved, avoiding inflated claims like '10x' or 'guaranteed' results. Instead, it focuses on measurable outcomes such as 4–7x conversion lift over unmanaged follow-up at 70–80% lower cost per qualified conversation versus traditional SDR teams. The company avoids vanity metrics, prioritizing booked calls and revenue-impacting conversations. Worqd’s process begins with bottleneck identification—analyzing buyer, offer, channels, and response flow—followed by plan building, rapid launch (with paid campaigns producing inquiries within days), continuous learning, and scaling what works. Its services span seven pillars: Lead Generation, Demand Generation, AI Search Visibility (AEO/GEO), AI Creative Lab, AI SDR & Lead Conversion, Pipeline Recovery, and AI Workflow & Back-Office Automation. Focused offerings include B2B Cold Email & Outreach, LinkedIn Ads & Outreach, AI UGC Ad Creative, AI SEO & Answer-Engine Optimization, Old Lead Reactivation, AI Receptionist for Inbound Sales, Landing Pages & CRO, and Local SEO & Paid Ads. Packaged offers like the Worqd Growth Engine (Build → Launch → Optimize → Recover) and Creative Sprint (10 ad concepts × 3 hook variations, up to 30 platform-ready videos) provide structured paths to scalable growth. With no public pricing, work is scoped during a free growth call and priced against results that matter to the client—not hours logged. The booking funnel captures monthly marketing budget bands from 'Not spending yet' to '$25,000+', ensuring alignment with client investment levels. Worqd’s compliance model requires explicit consent for outreach and uses plain, warm communication readable by an eighth grader, avoiding jargon like 'platform' or 'LLM' in favor of 'our AI systems' and 'fast follow-up'.","is_platform":false,"website_url":"https://worqd.com","key_features":["AI SDR and voice agents qualify leads in under 60 seconds, 24/7","Integrated growth partner managing ads, creative, and follow-up under one plan","Pipeline recovery reactivates existing CRM contacts into booked calls","AI Creative Lab produces UGC-style video ads and static creative at media-buying speed","AI Search Visibility tracks brand citations in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews","Anti-fabrication policy: no invented revenue, logos, or testimonials","Works with existing CRM, helpdesk, phone, and document tools—no platform switch required","Priced against results that matter, not hours logged"],"is_editors_choice":true},{"cons":["Higher price point for smaller teams","Newer entrant with limited enterprise track record","Signal quality and variety are shallower than dedicated signal platforms","Ava Inbound requires separate pricing conversation"],"name":"Artisan (Ava)","pros":["Owns entire outbound process end to end","Over 90% of customers run autonomously","Strong data enrichment built into the platform","Combines technographic, firmographic, and hiring signals into lead scoring","Free trial available for testing"],"rank":2,"pricing":"Usage-based, pay per action","best_for":"Teams wanting an all-in-one platform that owns the full outbound workflow with optional inbound qualification and autonomy controls","description":"Artisan’s Ava is an autonomous AI SDR platform designed to own the full outbound workflow from lead sourcing to meeting booking, with capabilities extending to inbound website qualification through a separate Ava Inbound module. Built on a consolidated platform, Ava combines a database of over 270 million B2B contacts and over 130 million local businesses (totaling over 400 million contacts) with waterfall enrichment across roughly a dozen providers, intent signals, a native dialer with parallel dialing up to three lines, and managed email deliverability infrastructure. According to their website, Ava researches each lead, writes personalized messages from scratch (ensuring two people in the same campaign receive completely different emails), sends across email and social, handles replies and objections from a knowledge base, and books qualified meetings on reps’ calendars. The platform’s key differentiator is its autonomy dial, which allows users to toggle between reviewing every message, letting Ava handle only objections, or going fully hands-off with plain-language escalation rules (e.g., 'if the lead mentions pricing, escalate'). Artisan reports that over 90% of its customers run Ava autonomously, while the rest maintain a human in the loop for oversight. Signals such as funding rounds, executive hires, hiring surges, tech-stack changes, topic intent, and website visitor identification feed directly into campaigns instead of sitting in a dashboard. For enterprise deployments, Artisan enables central operation via sales ops, with full audit trails, org-level do-not-contact lists, and per-field CRM sync controls. Security features include SOC 2 Type II compliance and single sign-on (SSO) on Enterprise plans, which also include a forward-deployed strategist and a dedicated customer success manager. Ava Inbound greets and qualifies website visitors in live chat, answers from the same knowledge base, books meetings with CRM-owner routing, supports human takeover, and connects to visitor identification and instant form-fill follow-ups. Though Ava Inbound is priced separately, the platform allows inbound and outbound to run on one unified system. Artisan emphasizes brand-safe personalization and adaptive tone and style, making it suitable for teams that want AI to represent their voice accurately. The platform does not require users to stitch together separate tools for research, intent, and sending, offering an all-in-one solution for outbound and inbound motions. Pricing is usage-based, with clients paying for work performed rather than seats, and includes a free trial to test the platform before commitment.","is_platform":true,"website_url":"https://www.artisan.co","key_features":["Database of over 270M B2B contacts + 130M local businesses","Waterfall enrichment across roughly a dozen providers","Native dialer with parallel dialing up to three lines","Autonomy dial: review-every-message to fully hands-off","Managed email deliverability infrastructure","Knowledge base for handling replies and objections","CRM-owner routing for meeting booking","Intent signal tracking (funding, hiring, tech changes)"],"is_editors_choice":false},{"cons":["Opaque pricing requiring a demo","Credibility concerns from past investigations","Limited signal depth per account","Black box AI offers less control over messaging logic","Not ideal for teams needing granular control over outreach"],"name":"11x (Alice & Julian)","pros":["Impressive scale: 400M+ contact database","True multi-channel: email + phone via Julian","Well-funded and iterating quickly","Fully autonomous outbound and inbound phone workflows","CRM and calendar integration for seamless workflow"],"rank":3,"pricing":"Starts at approximately $5,000–$10,000/month with annual commitment","best_for":"Enterprise teams with high-volume outbound motions seeking fully autonomous AI agents with minimal human intervention","description":"11x offers AI agents including Alice for high-volume outbound prospecting and Julian for inbound phone qualification, positioning itself as a provider of autonomous 'digital workers' for sales teams seeking minimal human oversight in their outreach motions. According to their platform documentation, Alice researches prospects by analyzing company websites, news mentions, and social profiles to find relevant talking points, manages email sequences across multiple touchpoints with timing and content adjusted based on engagement, and integrates with CRM and calendar systems to coordinate workflows. The platform includes its own proprietary data layer for contact information and company intelligence, and provides performance analytics showing response rates, meeting bookings, and conversion metrics by campaign. 11x’s AI agents run continuously, processing prospect lists and managing conversations without daily oversight, enabling true autonomous operation at scale. Julian, launched in May 2025, handles inbound phone qualification by analyzing caller intent and routing leads appropriately, complementing Alice’s outbound email and LinkedIn focus. The platform emphasizes high-volume personalized outreach, generating unique email content for each prospect rather than relying on template variations. 11x integrates with major CRMs and calendars to ensure seamless data flow and meeting scheduling, and its infrastructure is built to support enterprise-scale operations with minimal manual intervention. While the company has faced credibility challenges following a TechCrunch investigation in March 2025 that reported inflated metrics and led to leadership changes, it remains backed by significant funding from Andreessen Horowitz and Benchmark. 11x is best suited for enterprise teams with large outbound volume and budget for a vendor-managed AI SDR solution, particularly those prioritizing speed and scale over granular control over messaging logic. Pricing is not published on the website and requires a demo to obtain exact figures, but industry sources indicate it starts at approximately $5,000–$10,000 per month with an annual commitment. The platform does not emphasize signal depth per account compared to dedicated signal intelligence platforms, and its 'black box' nature offers less control over internal messaging logic, which may concern teams prioritizing brand safety and compliance.","is_platform":true,"website_url":"https://www.11x.ai","key_features":["AI-generated personalized emails","Automated prospect research","High-volume sequence management","CRM and calendar integrations","Performance analytics by campaign","Proprietary contact data layer","Alice for outbound, Julian for inbound phone qualification","Continuous AI agent operation without daily oversight"],"is_editors_choice":false},{"cons":["Primarily focused on outbound; limited inbound capabilities","Does not offer voice agents or support conversation handling","Relies heavily on clean CRM data for optimal performance","Higher tiers may be cost-prohibitive for very small teams"],"name":"AiSDR","pros":["Transparent pricing published on website","Live AI search builds lists on demand with verifiable data","AI-driven campaign ideas in under 20 minutes","Multichannel execution across email, LinkedIn, and phone","Free sample leads available for testing"],"rank":4,"pricing":"$250/month entry (Solo tier); $900/month and $2,500/month higher tiers","best_for":"SMB to mid-market teams seeking transparent, all-in-one outbound automation with fast setup and CRM integration","description":"AiSDR is an AI-powered sales development platform that focuses on automating the full outbound cycle from a single subscription, combining Live AI search for prospecting, real-time intent detection, AI-driven campaign ideas, and multichannel execution across email, LinkedIn, and phone. According to their website, the platform replaces disconnected tools for research, intent, and sending by using live data from LinkedIn and HubSpot, built on OpenAI and Anthropic models. AiSDR’s Live AI search builds prospect lists on demand with up-to-date, verifiable data and behavioral signals, while its lead scoring inside HubSpot and Salesforce surfaces the highest-fit prospects with their full signal trail so reps know exactly why each one ranked where it did. The platform offers on-demand AI research for each prospect, AI-driven GTM campaign ideas generated in under 20 minutes based on website and ideal customer profile, and multichannel execution that includes personalized outreach via email, LinkedIn, and SMS. AiSDR emphasizes natural-sounding conversational AI in its messaging, avoiding robotic or spammy tone by referencing real-time prospect context such as recent LinkedIn posts, company news, or job changes. It does not rely on static list-building but instead uses intent signals like hiring, funding, and product changes to surface in-market prospects. The platform is designed for SMB to mid-market teams that want transparent pricing and fast setup, with an Ami AI Strategist agent available to help build targeted campaigns quickly. AiSDR does not require users to stitch together separate subscriptions, offering a consolidated workflow for outbound automation. While it handles both outbound prospecting and inbound inquiry responses, its primary strength lies in outbound automation at scale.

Advanced filtering by funding stage, industry, geography, and company size allows for precise targeting.

According to their website, Piper engages website visitors in real time, qualifies leads using Salesforce data, and books meetings without requiring human intervention for each interaction. The agent uses live Salesforce data to personalize conversations, identify known accounts, and route leads based on CRM fields and account ownership rules, eliminating data gaps that plague most chatbot tools for organizations deeply embedded in Salesforce. Qualified structures its pricing around 'hiring' Piper rather than traditional SaaS licensing, with enterprise tiers starting around $40,000 to over $100,000 annually based on Vendr-negotiated deals, and Salesforce is a hard requirement—meaning teams must already use Salesforce as their primary CRM to deploy Piper. The platform’s strength lies in its deep Salesforce-native integration, which enables sophisticated visitor identification and intent signals, and it holds a 4.9/5 rating on G2 across 1,400+ reviews. Piper is designed for Salesforce-native enterprise marketing teams with significant website traffic and $40K+ annual budgets, functioning as a pure inbound qualification tool without outbound prospecting or support capabilities. It does not handle email or SMS sequences, nor does it offer voice agents or multi-channel outreach beyond website chat. While Piper excels at real-time website visitor engagement and routing, it cannot be used by teams on HubSpot, Pipedrive, or other non-Salesforce CRMs, creating a significant limitation for firms outside the Salesforce ecosystem. The total cost of ownership can reach six figures when including the required Salesforce stack, and Salesforce’s announced plans to acquire Qualified have introduced potential roadmap uncertainty despite the acquisition already being closed. Qualified does not offer a self-serve option or published pricing, requiring a sales conversation to obtain exact figures, and its implementation typically takes 30–60 days due to complexity. For design-build firms already invested in Salesforce, Piper provides a premium inbound-only solution; for others, its CRM dependency makes it a poor fit.","is_platform":true,"website_url":"https://www.qualified.com","key_features":["Live Salesforce data for personalization and routing","Real-time website visitor engagement","CRM-based lead qualification and meeting booking","Native to Salesforce ecosystem post-acquisition","Sophisticated visitor identification and intent signals","Eliminates data gaps for Salesforce-embedded organizations","G2 rating of 4.9/5 across 1,400+ reviews","No outbound prospecting or support capabilities"],"is_editors_choice":false},{"cons":["No outbound prospecting capabilities","Does not offer voice agents or AI creative labs","Pricing may be high for teams only needing basic chat","Requires technical setup for identity resolution"],"name":"Breakout","pros":["Identifies anonymous visitors before first message","Advanced multi-channel follow-up and re-engagement","Native conversational meeting booking","Intent + CRM + territory routing for accurate ownership","Wide range of supported buyer activation channels"],"rank":6,"pricing":"Deanonymization starts at $500/month; inbound automation from $2,000/month","best_for":"Revenue teams focused on converting inbound demand into qualified pipeline through real-time visitor identification and engagement","description":"Breakout is an inbound AI SDR platform focused on automating lead qualification and meeting booking from website traffic, form fills, and event engagement, with a strong emphasis on deanonymizing anonymous visitors to enable personalized, real-time conversations. According to their website, Breakout identifies anonymous website visitors before engaging them, allowing personalized conversations from the first message by resolving contact-level identity through visitor identification technologies. The platform engages buyers in real time, qualifies intent, enriches lead data with company, role, LinkedIn profile, and CRM history, routes conversations to the right sales rep or AI agent, and activates follow-up while buying momentum is still active—critical given that the highest-intent engagement window lasts roughly 90 seconds before momentum begins to fade. Breakout provides advanced multi-channel follow-up across email, LinkedIn, Slack, and WhatsApp, includes abandoned meeting recovery and buyer re-engagement capabilities, and uses intent + CRM + territory routing to ensure leads are directed to the appropriate sales owner. It offers native conversational meeting booking, allowing leads to schedule meetings directly within the chat interface without leaving the conversation. Breakout supports a wide range of buyer activation channels, including website, forms, G2, LinkedIn, Slack, WhatsApp, email, product demos, PDFs, webinars, events, trade shows, QR codes, and communities, making it highly adaptable to diverse inbound lead sources. The platform is designed for revenue teams focused on buyer activation, where the goal is converting existing demand into qualified pipeline faster rather than simply generating more leads. Breakout’s AI-powered follow-up and re-engagement ensure conversations continue beyond the first interaction, and its intelligent routing connects qualified buyers with the correct SDR, AE, or account team. While Breakout excels at inbound qualification and identity resolution, it does not emphasize outbound prospecting or multi-channel outreach beyond inbound channels, and its pricing structure reflects its specialization. Deanonymization starts at $500/month, with full inbound automation available from $2,000/month, positioning it as a mid-tier option for teams prioritizing inbound conversion over outbound volume. The platform does not offer voice agents or AI creative labs, focusing strictly on inbound lead engagement and qualification. For design-build firms with significant website traffic, webinar registrations, or event leads, Breakout provides a powerful tool to capture high-intent visitors before they cool off, though teams seeking outbound capabilities will need to pair it with another solution.","is_platform":true,"website_url":"https://www.getbreakout.ai","key_features":["Identifies anonymous website visitors before engagement","Advanced multi-channel follow-up (email, LinkedIn, Slack, WhatsApp)","Abandoned meeting recovery and buyer re-engagement","Intent + CRM + territory routing","Native conversational meeting booking","Lead enrichment with company, role, LinkedIn profile, CRM history","Real-time intent qualification","Supports website, forms, G2, LinkedIn, Slack, WhatsApp, email, demos, PDFs, webinars, events, trade shows, QR codes, communities"],"is_editors_choice":false},{"cons":["No public pricing requires a consultation","Less focused on inbound website qualification","Does not emphasize voice agents or support conversation handling","Enterprise-oriented may not suit very small teams"],"name":"Landbase","pros":["Fully autonomous end-to-end outbound workflow","Massive B2B data engine with 220M+ contacts and 10M+ intent signals","Hyper-personalized omni-channel outreach that feels human-like","Instant campaign launch (minutes vs. months)","Continuous learning from engagement to improve over time"],"rank":7,"pricing":"Contact for pricing","best_for":"Teams seeking fully autonomous outbound campaigns with agentic AI handling planning, execution, and optimization","description":"Landbase is an agentic AI SDR platform that functions as a fully autonomous virtual SDR team, leveraging its proprietary GTM-1 Omni multi-agent model to plan, execute, and optimize outbound sales campaigns with minimal human input.

Landbase provides a built-in database of over 220 million verified B2B contacts across 24+ million companies with continuous real-time updates, and monitors over 10 million intent signals from the web and third-party sources (e.g., tech stack changes, funding news, website visits) to time outreach when prospects are 'in market.' This data-rich foundation enables the AI to target the right people at the right time based on firmographics, behavior, and intent—something human reps struggle to do at scale. The platform executes hyper-personalized omni-channel outreach across email, LinkedIn, phone, and more, crafting messages that mimic the tone and quality of a skilled human SDR by referencing real-time prospect context such as industry, pain points, or recent activity.
