The sticker price isn't the price
Instantly markets a low monthly headline, but that number only covers a slice of what you actually use. Sending is one subscription, lead-finding and verification credits are another, and every extra block of leads is a paid add-on. By the time you're sending at real volume, the bill is often three to five times the headline.
This calculator rebuilds that bill line by line at your scale (the base plan you'd land on, how many lead add-ons you'd stack, and what credits cost) so you can see exactly where the money goes and how it compares to a flat plan.
Flat pricing wins as you scale
The problem with usage-based pricing is that it punishes success: the more leads you load and the more you send, the more you pay. Flat pricing does the opposite, your cost is fixed while your output grows.
Emailchaser gives you unlimited sending inboxes on every plan, one subscription per tier with no add-on modules, and 1-click import of your Instantly campaigns, sequences and contacts so switching is painless. Run the numbers above, then bring your account across.
Cost per inbox is the line to watch when you compare warmup, because warmup is priced per mailbox almost everywhere and the bill scales with every inbox you add. Emailchaser includes its email warmup service on every plan and does not cap how many sending inboxes you connect, so the ramp costs the same whether you run 5 mailboxes or 50.

Common questions about Instantly's pricing
How much does Instantly actually cost?
Instantly's headline is a low monthly price, but it bills as four separate subscriptions: Email Outreach (sending) starts at $47 and jumps to $97+ with extra leads at about $87 per 25,000; Instantly Credits (the lead database) is another $47/mo for 1,500 credits or $197/mo for 5,000; the CRM is another $47–$97/mo; and Inbox Placement is another $47–$97/mo. A team using more than one of these commonly pays $150–$350+/mo. This calculator adds up the ones you actually use.
How is this calculator's pricing sourced?
It uses Instantly's published 2026 pricing for the base plans and the per-25,000-lead add-on rate (about $87, dropping to $80 at higher volume), plus the separate credits pricing, figures verified against a live Instantly workspace. Promotions and annual billing will shift your exact number, so treat the result as a close estimate.
How is Emailchaser cheaper?
Emailchaser sells one subscription per tier - half the price of Instantly's matching plan or less, on monthly and annual billing alike (Instantly pricing as of August 2026) - with unlimited sending inboxes on every plan, monthly emails and lead credits included, and no separate CRM, credits or inbox placement modules to stack on top.
