Drift (now part of Salesloft) and Agentkit solve different problems, so be honest about which you need. Drift is a B2B conversational-marketing and sales platform built around lead routing, meeting booking, account-based marketing and visitor identification, sold through annual enterprise contracts starting around $2,500/mo. Agentkit is a self-serve AI chatbot trained on your website, docs and FAQs that you embed on your site — flat, transparent pricing from $0, live the same afternoon. If you want a content-trained website assistant without a sales call or five-figure commitment, Agentkit fits. If you run an enterprise demand-gen motion that needs sales routing, ABM and CRM-deep workflows, Drift's category is built for that. Note: in March 2026 Salesloft announced Drift is being sunset, which is worth weighing before you sign.
