What is Saleshandy?
Saleshandy halves the API price of profiles and allows same-day multichannel follow-ups.
Saleshandy combines a cold outreach sequencer with its Lead Finder prospect database. Two November releases touch both halves: sequence steps can now be spaced in hours and minutes, so email, WhatsApp and call tasks can run the same day, and the Open API returns people profiles without an email reveal at 0.5 credit per row.
What is SocialBee?
SocialBee retires category sequencing and Next Posts in its first product change in months.
After a summer of fixes for Threads, Pinterest and TikTok posting failures, SocialBee announced a scheduling overhaul rolling out over the coming weeks. Category Sequence and Random categories are being replaced by active categories, and the Next Posts view is being folded into Calendar and List views. A bug blocking deletion from the Content Categories page was fixed the same day.
Saleshandy vs SocialBee: editorial side-by-side
Saleshandy
5.0MARKETING
Saleshandy halves the API price of profiles and allows same-day multichannel follow-ups.
◆ Current state
Saleshandy combines a cold outreach sequencer with its Lead Finder prospect database. Two November releases touch both halves: sequence steps can now be spaced in hours and minutes, so email, WhatsApp and call tasks can run the same day, and the Open API returns people profiles without an email reveal at 0.5 credit per row.
◆ Where it's heading
Lead Finder is turning into a data product sold beyond the app, with monthly refreshes, CSV exclusions and now cheaper API access for CRM enrichment. The sequencer is moving toward multichannel cadences where WhatsApp and calls sit next to email.
◆ Prediction
Expect more Open API endpoints or pricing tiers for Lead Finder data, and the November data refresh post around late month.
SocialBee
5.0MARKETING
SocialBee retires category sequencing and Next Posts in its first product change in months.
◆ Current state
After a summer of fixes for Threads, Pinterest and TikTok posting failures, SocialBee announced a scheduling overhaul rolling out over the coming weeks. Category Sequence and Random categories are being replaced by active categories, and the Next Posts view is being folded into Calendar and List views. A bug blocking deletion from the Content Categories page was fixed the same day.
◆ Where it's heading
SocialBee is simplifying its category-based scheduling model rather than adding to it, consolidating views and removing modes. The promised biweekly, monthly and yearly recurrence suggests scheduling moves toward calendar-style rules instead of category queues.
◆ Prediction
Expect the recurring-schedule options announced for later this quarter to ship next; the entries don't show anything beyond scheduling.
