How this page was made. Every figure was read from each vendor's own pages on 19 September 2026 and is linked at the bottom. emailcampaign.ai is the third column and the publisher of this page; where lemlist or Woodpecker is the better choice, the page says so. Prices change; check the linked pages before buying.
lemlist from Paris and Woodpecker from Wrocław are the two European names in cold email that buyers most often weigh against each other. lemlist prices per seat with lemwarm, LinkedIn steps and a contact database included; Woodpecker prices per contacted prospect with unlimited team members and email accounts, and sells LinkedIn, warm-up, API, agency panel and white-label as add-ons. One is a bundle, the other a menu.

| Watch out for | Per-seat cost grows with the team; Trustpilot reviewers report features removed without warning and credits charged when data is not found | Reviews report charges after cancellation and multi-day support; the API is a paid add-on; bought domains cannot leave | The recommended 8 to 10 sends a day per mailbox means volume comes from fleet size; if you want 100 a day from one mailbox, nothing here will let you |
Where lemlist is stronger
The bundle. Warm-up on every plan, LinkedIn steps in the sequence, and a 650-million-contact database, all inside the $87 a user Multichannel plan; Woodpecker charges $29 a month for LinkedIn and $5 a mailbox for warm-up beyond the free slots.
Reviews. Capterra 4.6 from 391 and Trustpilot 3.4 from 148, against Woodpecker's Capterra 4.5 from 33 and Trustpilot 2.5 from 34 with 62 percent one-star.
Where Woodpecker is stronger
Cost that follows work rather than headcount. $35 a month for 500 contacted prospects with unlimited team members and email accounts; a five-person team on lemlist Multichannel pays $435 a month before volume.
Provisioning and agency tooling. Google or Microsoft addresses at $6, other providers at $4, domains about $1 a month, a dedicated server at $59, a $27 agency panel and white-label client reporting at $5 a client. lemlist provisions nothing and has no white-label.
Where emailcampaign.ai fits
emailcampaign.ai is a bundle like lemlist and provisions like Woodpecker, with one difference on each side: warm-up, placement tests and unlimited mailboxes are in the plan from $39, and the domains and Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 accounts it creates are registered in your name, where Woodpecker's bought domains stay inside Woodpecker. It has no LinkedIn steps in sequences, caps each mailbox at 8 to 10 cold emails a day, and is new.
