Coldrig vs Salesforge / Forge Stack: one price vs. a set of separate products
Salesforge is a sending tool. Its mailboxes and domains come from sister products (Primeforge, Mailforge and Infraforge), its warmup from Warmforge, and its lead search from Leadsforge. Each is priced on its own, and its assistant connector is set up with a key for each product. With Coldrig, your assistant buys and sets up the domains and Google mailboxes, warms them, and sends, inside one price.
Does the Forge Stack do the same job?
The job is mailboxes, domains, warmup and sending, run by an assistant with nothing done by hand. The Forge Stack covers the parts, as separate products.
| Part of the job | Salesforge / Forge Stack | Coldrig |
|---|---|---|
| Mailboxes and domains | Yes, through Primeforge (Google and Microsoft 365), Mailforge or Infraforge. These are separate products with their own prices. | Yes, bought and set up by your assistant, inside the one price. |
| Warmup | Yes. "Unlimited Premium Warm Up" is listed on the Pro plan. | Yes, built in, a ramp of about four weeks per mailbox. |
| Sending and sequences | Yes, with a monthly email limit on each plan. | Yes, through launch_campaign, with no monthly send quota. |
| Run by an assistant, nothing by hand | Partly. It has a hosted MCP endpoint. Its docs say authentication uses a separate key header for each product you use, and Node.js is needed if your client connects through an npx bridge. | Yes. One API key for all 34 intents, with a REST API, an MCP endpoint and a CLI. |
| Lead search and LinkedIn | Yes (Leadsforge, and LinkedIn sending on its plans). | No. Your assistant owns targeting and copy. |
Prices, side by side
| Salesforge plan (read 2026-10-14) | Monthly billing | Billed annually | What the plan lists |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pro | $48 a month | $40 a month | 1,000 active contacts in sequence, 5,000 emails a month, 1 user, unlimited mailboxes connected. |
| Growth | $96 a month | $80 a month | 10,000 active contacts in sequence, 50,000 emails a month. |
These plans do not include the mailboxes or domains; the infrastructure products are priced separately on the same pricing page, so the total depends on how many mailboxes and which product you pick. Coldrig: $49 a month for 3 mailboxes, $59 for 5, $84 for 10, $134 for 20 and $334 for 60. That one price covers the mailboxes, their domains, warmup and sending, with $0 per-send fees. The comparison page shows a like-for-like monthly total for other tools at 5 and 20 mailboxes.
Bottom line
Choose the Forge Stack when lead search and LinkedIn outreach are part of what you need, and you are happy to manage several products. Choose Coldrig when you want your assistant to run mailboxes, domains, warmup and sending with a single API key and a single price.
