Dooxout vs Smartlead: which cold email tool fits you?

Smartlead and Dooxout are both built for high-volume cold email and for agencies. This page compares what each one states publicly: prices, limits, mailboxes, white label, MCP and how to move a list across. Every Smartlead fact comes from its own pages, listed under Sources.

Who each tool is best for

Neither tool fits everyone. Read both lists and see which describes you.

Smartlead fits better if

  • You want unlimited mailboxes on every plan, with sending rotated across them, from a $39 entry plan.
  • You want white label priced per client workspace, so you pay as clients are added.
  • You want to buy mailboxes, domains, dedicated servers and placement tests as add-ons in the same account.

Dooxout fits better if

  • You want an AI agent to run outreach while the server enforces caps, budgets and approvals that the agent cannot change.
  • You want one flat Agency plan with 3 client workspaces and white label, instead of a per-client add-on.
  • You want a deliverability preflight and monthly deliverability tests included in the plan.
  • You want prices in euro, excluding VAT.

Moving from Smartlead to Dooxout

There is no one-click import from Smartlead. A move is a CSV export, an import, a mailbox reconnection and a rebuild of your sequences. For a small account it is an afternoon of work.

  1. Export your lead lists. Export your lists from Smartlead as CSV, using the export it offers, and keep the email column.
  2. Create your account. Create an account and a workspace.
  3. Import the CSV files. Create a lead list and import each file. You map the CSV columns, and exactly one must map to the email field. You can do this in the console, or over MCP or the API.
  4. Add addresses you must never contact. Suppress the addresses that unsubscribed, bounced or complained before the first send. The API and MCP have a tool for it (suppression.add). Suppression is always on in Dooxout.
  5. Reconnect your mailboxes. Connect each mailbox over SMTP and IMAP and set a daily cap per mailbox.
  6. Rebuild your sequences. Dooxout does not import campaigns, sequences, templates or reply history from Smartlead. Rebuild them in the console, or ask an agent connected over MCP to draft them and review the result.
  7. Run preflight, then launch. Preflight checks DNS, the list and a test message before the campaign starts. A person approves the first campaign.

Notes for Smartlead users

  • Pause the campaigns in Smartlead and disconnect the mailboxes there before you connect them to Dooxout, so that two tools never send from one address.
  • If you buy mailboxes through Smartlead add-ons, those stay with Smartlead. You can connect them to Dooxout over SMTP and IMAP if your provider gives you the credentials. Check with the provider first.

Questions about Dooxout and Smartlead

Can I import my Smartlead campaigns into Dooxout?

No. Dooxout has no importer for Smartlead campaigns. You export your lead lists as CSV, import them, and rebuild the sequences. An agent connected over MCP can help rebuild them, and a person approves the first campaign.

Does Dooxout charge per mailbox like some tools do?

Not for mailboxes you connect from outside. The sending volume of your plan is the limit. Mailboxes and domains you buy through Dooxout are billed separately. Smartlead states unlimited email accounts on every plan.

Does Smartlead have an MCP server too?

Yes, according to its help center, and it connects through Claude Desktop. Dooxout's MCP server works with any client that supports remote MCP over Streamable HTTP. The limits an agent works under are enforced on the Dooxout server and the agent cannot change them. We did not find that described on Smartlead pages.

How do the agency options differ?

Smartlead sells white label as a $29 add-on per client workspace per month and includes 3 client workspaces on its Unlimited Prime plan. Dooxout includes 3 client workspaces and white label in the Agency plan and charges EUR 24 a month for each extra workspace. See agencies and pricing.
