Compare · Tell vs 6sense
A 6sense alternative when you need a reason to call, not a score
6sense is a full account-based platform: it identifies the companies visiting your site, scores them with predictive models and multi-source intent, and runs ads and email from the same place. Tell does one narrower job: it reads public evidence for your market and tells your team who to call this week and why, with the sentence that proves it.
What 6sense is
6sense describes itself as intelligence for go-to-market teams: website visitor identification, predictive models and scores, multi-source intent (its own keyword intent network, plus partners such as Bombora, G2 and TrustRadius), job postings, advertising and AI email, sold as bundles of Sales Intelligence, data credits and predictive AI. Prices are not published; every bundle is sold through a demo. On August 12, 2026, 6sense discontinued the free Sales Intelligence plan.

Questions
How much does 6sense cost?
6sense doesn't publish prices. Its pricing page lists three Sales Intelligence bundles, with data credits, predictive AI or both, and every one is quoted after a demo. Tell starts at $249 a month with the price on the page.
Does 6sense still have a free plan?
No. 6sense discontinued the free Sales Intelligence plan on August 12, 2026, according to a notice on its community site; paid subscriptions were not affected.
Is Tell an intent data provider?
Not in the usual sense. Intent data providers infer research activity on topics. Tell reports public events, like a job post or a funding filing, and keeps the line that proves each one, so your rep can quote it.
