Comparison. Prices checked 15 September 2026.SDR Pilot vs SBL.so.
SDR Pilot (sdrpilot.ai) is an AI SDR from $97 a month that runs on your own LinkedIn account and can be driven by your own AI agent. SBL.so is a cloud outreach platform from $99 a month bundling two seats with supplied leads. Both answer with AI. SBL.so supplies the leads, SDR Pilot finds them on your own account.
- Unlimited leads, no quota
- Five sources on your account
- Every cap published
The short answer
These two are the closest match on this site, because both accept that an outreach tool has to hold a conversation rather than just send. The split is where the leads come from and what a seat is.
What SDR Pilot sells you
- One LinkedIn sender that goes and finds its own people from five places on LinkedIn.
- Unlimited leads, with no monthly quota.
- Replies answered from a playbook drafted from your website.
What SBL.so sells you
- A number of ICP matched leads a month, supplied to you.
- Outreach seats and premium signals bundled in.
- Automated chat replies in over 100 languages.

| Where it runs | Cloud, dedicated residential IP per sender | Cloud based |
What SBL.so does well
It is a broader product, with two outreach seats at the entry price rather than one.
Leads handed to you
A thousand ICP matched leads a month on Starter, supplied rather than sourced from the account you already have.
WhatsApp as well as LinkedIn
Outreach seats on either channel, and a built in CRM on the Pro tier.
Premium signals
Job changes, funding rounds and competitor monitoring on the Pro tier.
Where SDR Pilot is different
No lead quota, because it is not supplying leads
It is working your LinkedIn account: the people who asked to connect with you and never got an answer, the people who viewed your profile, the people who commented on your posts, the people who commented on posts in your niche, and the people a search on your ICP finds. That is unlimited on every plan, and every one of them is opened, read and scored before anything is sent.
The second difference is the safety model, which SDR Pilot publishes in full.
One dedicated residential IP per sender in the account's own country.
One browser identity per sender, captured from the real login.
One action at a time.
20 connection requests a day with a ceiling of 25, after a 16 day warm-up.
Active hours on your own calendar day.
An encrypted session cookie rather than your password.
The third is the playbook. Every message SDR Pilot sends comes from one document drafted from your website and edited by you, and the same document decides which leads qualify. There is nothing else to configure and no campaign to maintain.
When to pick SBL.so
- You want leads supplied rather than sourced from your own account's activity.
- You need WhatsApp outreach next to LinkedIn.
- You want intent signals such as job changes, funding or competitor monitoring.
- You want a CRM inside the same tool.
When to pick SDR Pilot
- Your own LinkedIn account already has warm signals nobody is working: unread connection requests, profile viewers, post engagers.
- You want the published caps and the safety model to be part of the product rather than a support article.
- You want unlimited leads rather than a monthly lead quota.
- You run an agency and want a separate workspace, playbook and inbox per client.
SDR Pilot does not do WhatsApp. It is LinkedIn only, and if WhatsApp is the channel you need, SBL.so or a WhatsApp tool is the better fit.
