Qualified Pricing in 2026: What Piper the AI SDR Actually Costs
Qualified's pricing page lists three plans and no numbers. Here's what each plan includes, what third-party deal data says buyers actually pay, and the costs that sit outside the Qualified contract entirely.
Quick answer
Qualified pricing is custom and unpublished. Third-party analyses citing Vendr deal data put the Premier plan around $68,000/year list, typically negotiated to $40,000–$50,000, and Enterprise around $95,500/year list. Every plan includes Piper, the AI SDR. Budget separately for Salesforce licenses, add-ons, and implementation — first-year total cost commonly lands between $95K and $165K for a mid-market team.
Qualified's three plans
Qualified, acquired by Salesforce in a deal that closed April 1, 2026, sells three tiers. Its pricing page describes them by capacity rather than seats, and every tier "hires" Piper, its AI SDR agent:
| Premier | Enterprise | Ultimate | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly web sessions | 250K | 2M | 5M |
| Monthly active email contacts | 2.5K | 10K | 24K |
| Piper AI SDR | Yes (1 profile) | Yes (1 profile) | Multiple profiles |
| Web + email conversations, meeting booking | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Agent handoff, MCP/API access, Salesforce sandbox | — | Yes | Yes |
| Dedicated IP, high-volume contact databases | — | — | Yes |
| Published price | No | No | No |
What buyers report paying
Because nothing is published, the useful numbers come from procurement data. A 2026 breakdown citing Vendr deal data reports:
- Premier: about $68,000/year list, commonly negotiated to $40,000–$50,000 (discounts of 18–53% off list).
- Enterprise: about $95,500/year list — roughly a $27,500 premium over Premier.
- Ultimate: fully custom.
Treat these as ranges, not quotes — your number depends on traffic volume, term length, and how hard you negotiate. But they're consistent across the third-party sources we've seen: this is a five-figure annual commitment before anything else.
The costs outside the Qualified contract
Qualified is built Salesforce-first. It lists HubSpot among its integrations, but its deepest features — and now its roadmap inside Agentforce — assume Salesforce. The same breakdown estimates first-year total cost for a mid-market team like this:
| Component | Reported annual range |
|---|---|
| Qualified Premier (negotiated) | $40K–$50K |
| Salesforce CRM (10 users) | $30K–$60K |
| Calendar & email connection add-ons | $5K–$10K |
| Intent data provider | $15K–$30K |
| Implementation / success services | $5K–$15K |
| Year-one total | $95K–$165K |
If you already run Salesforce, the CRM line is sunk cost and Qualified's number looks more reasonable. If you're on HubSpot, it's the line that makes the whole thing a non-starter.
Is Qualified worth it?
For the buyer it's built for — enterprise, Salesforce-standardized, high traffic, a team that can run a multi-week implementation — often yes. It's mature, the buyer-group modeling is genuinely deeper than anything cheaper, and Salesforce ownership means it isn't going anywhere.
For a mid-market team, the question is whether you need that depth or just the core job done: know which companies are on your site, have an AI agent qualify the ones that engage, route the good ones to a rep, and book the meeting.
How QualifyLoop prices the same job
QualifyLoop charges for AI conversations, not seats or session capacity, and every plan has the full suite — identification, AI agent, routing, meeting booking, HubSpot and Salesforce sync, reporting:
| Plan | Price | Included |
|---|---|---|
| Starter | $0, free forever | 200 AI conversations/month, 1 CRM, 1 calendar |
| Growth | $99/month | 200 conversations, then $0.35 each; unlimited CRM & calendar connections, routing playbooks, buyer-group reporting |
| Business | $349/month | 1,000 conversations, then $0.25 each; priority routing, click-to-call voice |
A team running 1,500 AI conversations a month on Business pays $349 + 500 × $0.25 = $474/month, about $5,700 a year. What you give up versus Qualified: assigned buying roles in the buyer-group model, deeper reporting, and years of enterprise hardening. A paid reverse-IP provider (for company size) and Twilio (for voice) are pass-through costs if you use them.
