Where Apollo shines
Apollo's pre-loaded prospect database is broad, the sequencer is mature, and the all-in-one positioning makes it a sensible default when you want to start outbound quickly without configuring integrations. Built-in dialer and Chrome extension make it convenient for teams that want everything in one login.
Where Clentt is different
Clentt does not bundle a prospect database. It integrates with the data providers you choose (Apollo data, Hunter, RocketReach, ContactOut, Lusha, People Data Labs, Crustdata, and more) via a credit-metered plugin layer. Cold email runs through the Instantly plugin. Custom objects, workflows, kanban, and AI chat with Model Context Protocol tool calling are native. Composable instead of one-stop.

When Apollo is the right choice
Pick Apollo when you want one product to handle prospect data, sequences, and dialing without configuring integrations. For early outbound teams without dedicated RevOps, a bundled all-in-one is the fastest path to running cadences.
When Clentt is the right choice
Pick Clentt when you want best-in-class for each layer: the data provider that fits your motion, Instantly for sending, native meeting transcription, all orchestrated through a single AI-native workspace with custom objects, workflows, and chat. Composable instead of compromised.
Frequently asked questions
Does Clentt include a prospect database like Apollo?
No. Clentt does not bundle a prospect database. It integrates with multiple data providers on-demand (Hunter, Apollo data, RocketReach, ContactOut, People Data Labs, Lusha, Datagma, Crustdata, and more). You pay credits per lookup instead of a database subscription.
Can I move my Apollo sequences and contacts to Clentt?
You can import Apollo contact exports into Clentt as records on a custom object. Sequences run through the Instantly plugin in Clentt: you set up sender accounts and warmup in Instantly and orchestrate sequences from Clentt's workflow builder.
Does Clentt include a dialer?
No. Dialer and call recording are not in Clentt's scope. If voice outbound is a hard requirement, Apollo's built-in dialer or a dedicated tool like Aircall or JustCall is a better fit. Clentt focuses on async motion: email, workflows, and pipeline.
