Why teams pick BoomSauce over Instantly.
Instantly grew on warmup pool size — every user shares it, including spam-adjacent senders. BoomSauce runs a vetted P2P network where every mailbox is real, scored, and policed.
Pool quality, not pool size
Instantly's pool is massive but shared with every tenant. One bad-actor neighbor degrades your domain. BoomSauce vets every mailbox in the network and scores each one continuously.
Domain registration + DNS bundled
Instantly doesn't register domains — go buy them elsewhere, wire DNS by hand. BoomSauce registers ($25/yr) or wires your existing one for free.
No per-seat tax
Instantly tier-locks volume by per-seat plan. BoomSauce wallet scales with what you actually send. A 5-person team on Instantly pays for chairs; on BoomSauce they pay for sends.
Lead search built in
Instantly's lead store is thin. BoomSauce ships a real B2B lead search at $0.10/contact in-wallet — query, pull, send, all in one place.

The bill, side by side.
Instantly's pricing is per seat, per tier. We're per send.
A team on Instantly Growth ($37/seat × 5 seats × 12 mo) pays $2,220/yr before sending. The same team on BoomSauce pays only for what they actually send.
Common questions about switching.
Instantly's warmup pool is bigger. Doesn't that matter?+
Pool size matters less than pool quality. Sharing a pool with thousands of spam-adjacent senders degrades your domain even if your own sending is clean. BoomSauce vets every mailbox, scores each one continuously, and ejects non-compliant senders.
I have warmed domains on Instantly. Can I bring them?+
Yes — BYOD your existing domains free. Reputation lives on your domain, not in Instantly's database. We pick up where you left off, re-wire managed DNS, and resume sending.
How long does migration take?+
Most teams cut over one domain in a day, then move the rest over 1–2 weeks. Existing warmed domains keep their reputation; new domains warm up through our P2P network.
What about Instantly's campaign analytics?+
BoomSauce gives you per-mailbox reputation tracking, daily delivery-stats reconciliation, and benchmark data from the full network. You'll see more than Instantly surfaces — at the domain, mailbox, and sequence level.
