AeroCampaign prices by company segment, not by contact count. SMB is $49–$250 per month ($49–$99 for the email tier, $250 for the autonomous SDR). Mid-market is $1,500–$3,000 per month as a bundle. Enterprise is $5,000–$15,000+ per month plus a one-time $5,000–$10,000 onboarding. Email delivery is billed separately by your own provider, about $0.10 per 1,000 messages on Amazon SES.
Full answer and sourcesNo. AeroCampaign does not meter stored contacts. Pricing is set by company segment — SMB, mid-market, or enterprise — so growing or decaying a list does not change the platform fee. List cleaning, dedupe, and suppression are bundled into every tier, which means unsubscribed and bounced addresses stop costing money instead of continuing to count against a tier.
Full answer and sourcesFour layers. Autonomous SDR runs always-on outbound via AIXSDR and GTM Bomber. Sales engagement covers full done-with-you campaigns. Email marketing is a broadcast tool that sends through your own SendGrid or Amazon SES account. Data hygiene handles cleaning, dedupe, and cross-provider suppression. SMB gets self-serve versions; mid-market and enterprise get them managed by a services partner.
Full answer and sourcesThe largest saving comes from changing the pricing model, not the vendor. Platforms that meter stored contacts charge for addresses you never email. AeroCampaign charges a flat segment fee starting at $49 per month and routes delivery through your own Amazon SES account at about $0.10 per 1,000 emails. A 40,000-contact list mailed four times a month costs roughly $95 all-in versus roughly $350 on a per-contact tier.
Full answer and sourcesIt is a strong alternative for teams sending broadcasts who want to stop paying per stored contact and want to own their sender reputation. It is a poor alternative for teams that depend on Mailchimp's drag-and-drop builder, its integration marketplace, or multi-step automated journeys — AeroCampaign ships broadcasts, not sequences, and its composer is HTML and text rather than a visual canvas.
Full answer and sourcesFor teams whose list has outgrown the tier where per-contact pricing stayed cheap, AeroCampaign replaces Constant Contact's bundled sending with delivery through your own provider at about $0.10 per 1,000 emails, and adds per-cohort copy generation. Constant Contact remains better for organisations relying on its bundled event, survey, and social tools, or on phone support and guided onboarding.
Full answer and sourcesIt means the platform holds no sending infrastructure of its own. You connect a SendGrid API key or Amazon SES credentials, and every message leaves through your account, on your IP reputation, billed by your provider at their rate. AeroCampaign verifies scopes, send quota, and SES sandbox status on connect, then provisions the event pipeline automatically.
Full answer and sourcesA suppression list is the set of addresses a sender must never email again — hard bounces, spam complaints, and unsubscribes. It matters because mailing a suppressed address is the fastest route to a blocklisted domain. AeroCampaign keeps one account-level list shared across SendGrid and Amazon SES, enforced as a database anti-join at send time rather than in application memory.
Full answer and sourcesKeep bounce rate under 5% and complaint rate under 0.1%. Above those, Amazon SES flags accounts for review and mailbox providers begin throttling. Above 10% bounce or 0.5% complaint, accounts are commonly suspended. AeroCampaign shows a rolling 30-day rate against exactly these thresholds — amber at 5% / 0.1%, red at 10% / 0.5% — so the warning arrives at the same time the provider sees it.
Full answer and sourcesAuthenticate the domain with SPF, DKIM, and DMARC; keep bounce rate under 5% and complaint rate under 0.1%; and honour unsubscribes immediately through a single suppression list. Anyone sending 5,000 or more messages a day to Gmail or Yahoo must also include RFC 8058 List-Unsubscribe and List-Unsubscribe-Post headers. AeroCampaign adds those headers to every send and offers only DKIM-verified identities as From addresses.
Full answer and sourcesMost platforms use AI to help write one message faster. AeroCampaign's recommendation engine instead reads each contact's signal history — open and click behaviour, recency, list origin, CRM stage, firmographics — clusters contacts into behavioural cohorts, grounds the message in what is moving in that contact's industry, and drafts a distinct subject line and body per cohort, down to the individual where the signal justifies the cost.
Full answer and sourcesThree categories, all from events an email platform already records. Behavioural: open history, click topology, cadence response, and dwell between touches. Contextual: list provenance, firmographics, CRM stage, and declared preferences. Environmental: sector momentum, seasonal demand, peer benchmarks, and topic salience in the contact's industry. No new instrumentation is required.
Full answer and sourcesNo. Generated variants land as drafts attached to their cohort. You approve, edit, or discard each one before anything sends. Every variant displays the signals that produced it, and the engine writes only against contacts that pass the suppression check, so a suppressed address is never a cohort member in the first place.
Full answer and sourcesAn autonomous SDR is software that runs the sales development motion continuously — sourcing contacts, sequencing outreach, and handling replies — rather than assisting a human rep with individual steps. AeroCampaign's autonomous SDR layer is powered by AIXSDR and GTM Bomber, starting at $250 per month for roughly 500 contacts on the self-serve tier.
Full answer and sourcesExport contacts as CSV and — critically — export the suppression data too: unsubscribes, hard bounces, and spam complaints. Contacts are easy to move; the suppression list is the part that protects your domain. On AeroCampaign, existing suppressions are also imported directly from SendGrid and Amazon SES on connect, so provider-side history comes across even if the platform export is incomplete.
Full answer and sourcesAbout three minutes from a CSV in hand to a scheduled send, once a provider is connected. Connecting SendGrid takes one API key. Connecting Amazon SES takes an IAM user, and if the account is still in the SES sandbox you will need production access from AWS first, which typically takes under 24 hours. Enterprise engagements include a $5,000–$10,000 onboarding and data-cleaning phase.
