7 6sense Alternatives for 2025
6Sense’s predictive models flag companies whose website traffic and ad clicks hint at buying intent.
This is helpful until you need to know who at these accounts are actually on your site.
If you landed here, you’re clearly looking for an alternative that hands your team contact-level intent.
What 6Sense Really Gives You
- Account-level website & ad data. "Anonymous" pageviews from reverse-IP lookup and ad impressions roll up into a predictive buying-stage score.
- AI scoring dashboards. Color-coded charts show which accounts are "Consideration," "Decision," or "Purchase."
- Heavy ABM stack. Integrates with Marketo, Salesforce, and ad networks, but you still need separate tools for enrichment, content, and sequencing.
- Enterprise pricing & lift. Expect five-figure contracts, a multi-month implementation, and ops bandwidth to keep the engine humming.
Great if you’re a mature ABM org that already has enrichment, content, and outreach dialed in and just want to fine-tune account prioritization.
#1 Letterdrop: Contact-Level Enrichment and Outbound on Autopilot
Best for GTM teams that need to know which people are leaning in and want a turnkey workflow to engage them.
Letterdrop | 6sense |
Contact‑level names and titles from web sessions & social engagement. | Account‑level reverse‑IP and ad data; users stay anonymous. |
LLM labels each person as Unaware → Decision and suggests the next step. | AI stages accounts (Awareness → Purchase) but no buyer‑stage context for individuals. |
Auto‑drafts personalised DMs/emails and pushes to Apollo, Outreach, or Slack in one click. | Provides scores; users must build sequences in external tools. |
Enriches contacts with firmographics & CRM match on capture. | Requires separate enrichment providers for contact data. |
Flat tiers, generous contact caps, go‑live in days. | Enterprise contracts, multi‑month rollout, ongoing ops maintenance. |
1‑click sync to HubSpot & Salesforce at the contact level. | Native account‑level pushes to Salesforce; contact sync depends on other tools. |

6sense is, quite frankly, expensive to scale and for what you get.

We've looked at things like 6Sense, but when you compare the value of like what we pay for Letterdrop versus what it would take to implement the likes of a 6Sense, it's worlds apart. We believe that value is incredibly high. — Joshua Breslin
#2 Bombora: Account-Level Surge Data for Classic ABM
