Warmly vs RB2B: Which Visitor Identification Tool Is Better?
The Short Answer
Warmly is the better tool for B2B teams that want visitor identification and automated engagement in one platform. It identifies up to 65% of companies, scores intent, routes leads to your CRM, and engages visitors with AI chat — all without requiring additional tools. RB2B is the better choice for budget-conscious teams that only need person-level LinkedIn matching and already have their own outreach stack. RB2B's free tier makes it the right starting point for early-stage companies.

Pricing: What You Actually Pay
The sticker price tells half the story. The real cost includes the tools each platform replaces (or requires you to keep).
Warmly — Total Cost
Platform: ~$700-$1,500/mo (based on traffic volume)
Replaces: Standalone chat tool (~$200/mo), intent data provider (~$300/mo), routing middleware (~$100/mo)
Net cost after tool consolidation: ~$100-$900/mo
RB2B — Total Cost
Platform: $0-$200/mo
Still need: Outreach tool (~$100-$300/mo), CRM routing (~$100/mo), chat tool (~$200/mo), Zapier (~$50/mo)
True total stack cost: $450-$850/mo
When you factor in the tools RB2B doesn't replace, the actual cost gap between the two approaches narrows significantly. Warmly's higher sticker price buys consolidation.
