Agent Frank vs Jason AI: AI Sales Agent Comparison

For a thorough understanding of what each option offers, a simplified comparison table isn't enough to grasp all intricacies that come with each tool, so let's dive deeper into what makes Reply.io's Jason AI and Salesforge's Agent Frank unique.

Jason AI by Reply.io vs Agent Frank by Salesforge: Conversational AI SDR Overview

Both Agent Frank and Jason AI target modern sales teams and agencies looking to automate parts of the sales process, but they position themselves differently.

Jason AI is framed by Reply.io as an AI SDR that “feels human, works superhuman” and emphasizes broad multichannel coverage and a vast dataset to find prospects. With Jason AI you get:

• AI SDR that automates outreach 24/7
• Access to real-time B2B data with massive contact data coverage
• AI-driven personalization that researches prospects and crafts tailored messages
• Autopilot and co-pilot handling modes
• Meeting booking with Google Calendar integration
• Ability to define playbooks

That makes it attractive to teams who want a sales engagement platform that blends lead generation, multichannel sales outreach, and AI personalization into existing outreach efforts.

Agent Frank by Salesforge is a more turnkey AI SDR within a tightly integrated suite (The Forge Stack) - designed to run on auto-pilot and reduce the manual tasks that typically burden SDRs.

• A complimentary Salesforge account to manage the Agent
• 24/7 automated prospecting (with adjustable working hours if necessary)
• A Dedicated Account Manager
• Auto-Pilot & Co-Pilot modes
• Automatically generated multi-source hyper-personalized messages
• Fully customizable Agent personality
• Sourcing from a 500M+ contact lead database
• Availability in 20+ languages
• Premium deliverability capabilities (including unlimited free warm-up via Warmforge)
• And a shared Slack channel

For teams focused on complex multichannel sequences, Reply.io’s Jason AI is a great solution in terms of data reach and granular control.

But for teams that prize lower operational complexity and fewer separate tool subscriptions - i.e., sales teams and lead generation agencies that want a managed, deliverability-first approach - Agent Frank is positioned as the simpler, more hands-on solution.

Pricing Plans

Agent Frank provides flexible pricing oriented around outreach scale. Pricing is charged by Active Contacts (the number of prospects the Agent is processing at any given time), and annual billing includes 2 months free. There is no free trial and demos are required before purchase.

• From $599/mo for the base monthly billing plan (1,000 Active Contacts), where you get 1,000 active contacts maintained throughout the month (the agent will reach ~2,000 - 2,500 new leads per month and send ~6,000–7,500 personalized emails)

Note that infrastructure to process those contacts via email is not included in this base price. Recommended infrastructure options include:

• Infraforge (dedicated IP email infrastructure) - starts at $33/month (billed annually) for 10 mailboxes.
• Megaforge (premium, multi-ESP distribution with smart distribution to maximize deliverability) - starts at $69/month for 20 mailboxes.

The Forge team will help set up the mailboxes and the Mailforge (shared IP) and Primeforge (Gmail and Outlook) email infrastructure options are also available. Additionally, teams can connect their own mailboxes from other providers if desired.

Jason AI's exact commercial plans require contacting sales or booking a demo.

• Reply.io uses a $800/month figure on the Jason AI page as the example monthly cost of replacing a single SDR.

Jason AI also requires additionally purchasing email infrastructure for email outreach

Prospecting & Lead Generation Workflows

Lead generation and prospecting are core to any AI SDR.

• Jason AI advertises automated lead generation backed by massive contact datasets and real-time signals. It can generate an AI-created ICP and continuously source prospects, which suits teams that need large volumes of potential customers and want to control targeting logic.

Jason’s strengths are fairly run-of-the-mill. They lie in giving sales and marketing teams tools to author playbooks, choose personalization points, and approve messages before sending.

• Agent Frank operates 24/7 to find and process new leads based on your detailed criteria - but with a more managed approach.
• Continuous prospecting is offered as part of the agent’s remit, and Salesforge emphasizes the ability to upload your own contacts or let Agent Frank set up continuous prospecting within your ICP.
• Agent Frank additionally does automatic lead qualification with adjustable queries to make sure the targeted leads fit criteria and business needs as accurately as possible.

The subtle difference is control vs. handoff:

• Jason lets teams build and tweak playbooks and data signals themselves.
• Agent Frank, while also allowing manual tweaks like Jason, can provide steady pipeline with less internal configuration by leaning on Salesforge’s integrated lead sources and your Account Manager.

For sales teams that want to reduce manual tasks and avoid hiring extra SDRs, Agent Frank’s promise to find the leads, enrich contacts, clean and verify lists, and verify emails is perfect.

It maps to fewer time-consuming steps (manual data entry, list verification, deliverability checks) and faster movement from outreach efforts to booked meetings.

Multichannel Sequences & Personalized Messages

• Reply.io’s Jason AI is explicit about mixing email, LinkedIn, and phone in the same intelligent sequence. It supports LinkedIn automation for connection requests, messages and follow ups, while phone steps can be inserted with generated scripts.

That makes Jason AI strong at building adaptive multichannel sequences that react to prospect behavior and orchestrate outreach so teams can combine email sequences with LinkedIn outreach and calls in a single campaign.

• Salesforge’s Agent Frank also supports LinkedIn, while additionally highlighting unlimited email mailboxes and LinkedIn senders, with heavy emphasis placed on email deliverability and managed senders.

Where Agent Frank leans ahead is in its curated approach to multi-source hyper-personalization sources (the agent can use everything from a prospect’s website, to blog posts and/or LinkedIn posts) and the Auto-Pilot vs Co-Pilot modes that let teams choose how much manual control they want.

Email Infrastructure & Deliverability

Deliverability is the linchpin of cold outreach success, and this is one area where Agent Frank intentionally differentiates itself.

• Unlimited free warm-up via Warmforge
• Dynamic IPs
• Rotating mailboxes
• Spam checkers
• Placement tests
• ESP matching
• Mailbox health monitoring
• Deliverability metrics

And more. Building sender reputation gradually while spreading volume across addresses and IPs to avoid single-mailbox throttles or sudden reputation hits is crucial for a scaling business. And that's paired with proprietary infrastructure options:

• Mailforge (shared infra)
• Infraforge (private infra)
• Primeforge (Google/Outlook)
• Megaforge (multi-ESP premium infrastructure that combines the aforementioned infras to maximize deliverability)
• Or your team can connect your own infrastructure

Those infrastructure features reduce the risk of landing in spam and make multi-channel outreach more reliable, especially when you have a leads database and want to integrate email at scale.

Jason AI offers standard warm-up, emphasizes sender reputation, and bundles real-time B2B data with its offering - but they don't pitch themselves as an infrastructure provider.

For sales teams or lead generation agencies focused on large scale operations and high-volume cold outreach, the difference matters. Agent Frank’s model minimizes the operational burden of maintaining email metrics, domain health, and warm-up cycles so teams can scale sends across many mailboxes with less risk.

Agent Frank converts outreach efforts into more meetings with fewer deliverability headaches, which is often more valuable than marginal gains in personalization when inbox placement is the bottleneck.

Team Usage & Large-Scale Operations

Scaling outbound across clients and mailboxes can be the area where platforms break or shine.

• Jason AI touts global coverage, billion-record contact datasets, and the ability to target accounts and signals at scale - great for teams running high-volume, internally managed programs.

Reply.io’s architecture and data access make it easy to run many campaigns in parallel if you have the people to design and manage those campaigns.

• Agent Frank’s approach to scale is operational. Instead of selling raw data coverage numbers, Salesforge sells the fact that Agent Frank can be run with unlimited Email + LinkedIn Senders and paired with Megaforge to distribute sending across ESPs - a model built to avoid single-ESP throttling.

With Agent Frank the leads go through waterfall data enrichment and source from multiple reputable providers to guarantee quality over quantity.

For lead generation agencies or sales teams who measure success by meetings booked and closed deals, Agent Frank’s pipeline-oriented scaling reduces the friction of adding more capacity since you don’t have to rebuild deliverability for every new client or mailbox.

Customer Support & Resources

The onboarding and support experience matters - the faster you move from sign-up to outbound, the quicker you see ROI.

Salesforge makes onboarding a visible, managed part of the Agent Frank story: you start with a demo, then a Dedicated Account Manager helps set up the account, create the knowledge base, configure infrastructure and warm up mailboxes.

That approach reduces the manual tasks sales teams often struggle with - no separate deliverability vendor, fewer manual data entry steps, and a partner focused on ironing out initial list hygiene and infrastructure.

Besides that, Agent Frank customers also get:

• 24/7 email and live chat support
• Extensive documentation
• Youtube tutorials
• An active Slack community
• And even weekly AMA sessions.

Reply.io emphasizes quick setup via playbooks, email and live chat support, a CSM (only on higher plans), knowledge base ingestion and AI model selection, but the experience is oriented toward enabling teams to build their own playbooks and approve messages.

That means Reply.io will get users running fast who are already experienced.

For growing sales teams and lead generation agencies that prefer to shift heavy operational overhead away from internal staff, Agent Frank’s Account Manager model is a strong fit.

They offload the manual tasks that consume SDR time and let reps focus on higher-value activities like closing deals and handling qualified leads.

Final Verdict: Which AI Agent Should You Pick For Your Prospecting & Cold Outreach?

Both Agent Frank and Jason AI are capable AI SDRs that improve outreach efforts, reduce manual tasks, and drive meetings - but they answer different operational questions.

• Jason AI prioritizes multichannel flexibility and playbook control.
• Agent Frank prioritizes affordability, integrated infrastructure, state-of-the-art hyper-personalization, lead quality, deliverability and a managed onboarding.
