The short version

  • Only Bonjoro has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Bonjoro the whole benefit depends on people recording videos daily, and there is no product mechanism that creates that discipline, so licences commonly sit idle within one quarter of purchase.; People.ai pricing per user adds up quickly for large sales teams
  • They diverge on capability: Bonjoro covers Trigger-driven task queue, People.ai covers Activity capture.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Bonjoro

  • The whole benefit depends on people recording videos daily, and there is no product mechanism that creates that discipline, so licences commonly sit idle within one quarter of purchase.
  • Billing is per user, so a five person customer success team multiplies the headline monthly figure straight away and the cost scales with team size rather than with results.
  • Key capabilities including custom domain, removing Bonjoro branding and one-to-many video are gated to the top published tier, which is several times the entry price.
  • Personal video does not scale beyond a certain volume of accounts, so it works for high value or early stage relationships and simply cannot cover a long tail of thousands of small customers.
  • Recipients increasingly recognise the format from sales outreach, which erodes the novelty that made early adopters see high reply rates, and the effect is weaker now than the vendor case studies suggest.

People.ai

  • Pricing per user adds up quickly for large sales teams
  • Setup requires deep CRM configuration and change management
  • Activity capture can generate noise without proper filtering and customization
  • Forecasting accuracy depends on data quality and proper configuration

People.ai automates activity capture from emails, calls, and meetings, then uses AI to provide pipeline visibility, forecasting insights, and engagement analytics.

Source

People.ai: What is the starting price for People.ai?

People.ai pricing starts at 50 USD per user per month, with free PeopleGlass tier available for Salesforce users.

Bonjoro: Does it work for cold outreach?

It can, but the design intent and the strongest results are in onboarding, activation and retention where there is already a relationship.

Bonjoro: What actually makes it fail?

Teams that do not build a daily recording habit. The queue fills up, nobody clears it, and the subscription becomes shelfware.
