AI SDR
hired in minutes, works every day.
Cold outreach dies in the inbox because it reads like everyone else's template. Your AI SDR researches each prospect first, writes every email for one person, and stops the moment they reply.
What is an AI SDR?
An AI SDR is an AI sales agent that builds lead lists from your ideal customer profile, researches each prospect, writes personal outreach and follows up on schedule. On CellCog it is hired in minutes, sends from dedicated domains that protect your own, and researches every account with the agent ranked #1 on Deep Research Bench (July 2026).

Three ways to run outbound
| Doing it yourself | A sequencing tool | AI SDR | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Researches each prospect | If time allows | No | Yes, before writing |
| Writes each email | You | Templates with fields | One to one |
| Follows up | You remember | On a timer | On a set schedule |
| Stops when they reply | You | Usually | Right away |
| Protects your main domain | No | Depends on setup | Separate sending domains |
| Asks before sending | n/a | No | Yes, by default |

Frequently asked questions
What is an AI SDR?
An AI SDR is an AI sales agent that builds lead lists from your ideal customer profile, researches each prospect, writes personal outreach and follows up on schedule.
Is an AI SDR the same as an AI sales agent?
Mostly. An AI sales agent is the broader term; an AI SDR focuses on the top of the funnel: finding the right people, starting the conversation and booking the meeting.
Will it send from my company email?
Not for cold outreach. Cold email goes from dedicated sending domains with warmed-up mailboxes, daily volume caps and automatic handling of bounces and unsubscribes, so your main domain stays safe. For people who already know you, like customers and inbound leads, it can use your own connected mailbox within tight daily limits.
Where do the leads come from?
Your own lists, your CRM, or a lead database like Apollo if you connect one. It researches each company and only writes to people who fit.
What happens when a prospect replies?
Follow-ups stop at once and the reply lands in its inbox for a considered answer. When a call is next, it hands off to you with the thread and research attached.
Will the emails feel like spam?
The approach is small batches of researched, individual emails. Volume caps are built in, so it can't blast even if asked.
What does it cost?
You pay for the work, not the hire. Hiring is free. Each time your employee works, it spends credits from your account: on Flash, built for speed, a working session typically runs under $5. On Max, our deepest reasoning, the same session runs up to about $25. From there the cost depends purely on how much work you assign. Start free, no credit card needed, with 200 credits.
