AI SDR ROI Calculator — See Your Revenue Return Before You Commit
A human SDR costs $120,000 per year before they generate a single qualified meeting. XYNEXI’s AI SDR pricing starts at a fraction of that cost, with no ramp period, no attrition risk, and no overhead. Use the calculator to see your specific revenue return.
An AI SDR costs $1,500 to $25,000 per month depending on volume and platform. A human SDR costs $80,000 to $120,000 in annual salary plus six months of ramp time, benefits, tools, and management overhead, roughly $140,000 to $160,000 in fully-loaded first-year cost. XYNEXI's token-based AI SDR pricing starts with a free plan of 200 tokens per month with no credit card required, and scales to full SDR replacement at a fraction of the human equivalent cost.

Guide
How We Calculate Your ROI
Your ROI is not a guess. It is the output of a disciplined reasoning engine designed to maximize performance across every stage of your go-to-market motion. Before calculating your return, the system runs three efficiency steps to ensure the numbers reflect real, repeatable impact.
- Email Validation for Deliverability & Engagement
Estimate the additional revenue that may be achievable through improved buyer engagement, qualification, intent verification, and conversion performance.
- Lead Enrichment & ICP Identification
Next, the engine enriches each lead and confirms Ideal Client Profile alignment. This ensures your campaigns reach the right audience, the right persona, and the right buying context, increasing conversion probability at every stage.
- Optimization engine
The optimization engine studies performances, scoring result and optimizes individual engine performance. Optimizing speech, tone, discovery and closing questions, delivery methods, and strategies to compound results .
- Recursive Learning
Finally, the system is in a continuous learning loop. The recursive learning engine constantly improves the presentation process and methods, learning from engagements to enhance the overall presentation strategy and performance. Each cycle becomes smarter, driving progressively stronger results until your ROI objectives are met and maintained.

How Much Does an AI SDR Cost Compared to a Human SDR?
An AI SDR costs between $1,500 and $25,000 per month depending on volume, features, and platform. A human SDR costs $80,000 to $120,000 in annual salary plus benefits, tools, management overhead, and six months of ramp time before they generate consistent pipeline.
The real cost comparison is not salary versus subscription. It is total cost to first qualified meeting. A human SDR with a six-month ramp and 35% annual attrition generates their first consistent pipeline around month seven, after the business has already spent roughly $70,000 in fully-loaded costs. XYNEXI’s AI SDR delivers its first qualified buyer conversation on day one, with no ramp, no attrition, and no management layer required.
The second cost difference is scale. A three-person SDR team at $360,000 in annual cost handles a fixed volume of outreach conversations. XYNEXI handles thousands of simultaneous buyer conversations without additional headcount. Cost per qualified buyer drops as volume increases, which is the inverse of human SDR economics where more volume requires more hires.
What Is the ROI of Replacing Your SDR Team With AI?
The ROI of replacing a human SDR team with an AI SDR depends on four variables: current SDR headcount cost, qualified meetings per SDR per month, XYNEXI’s qualified buyer delivery rate for your ICP, and your average deal size.
For a B2B SaaS company with two SDRs at $110,000 each in fully-loaded cost, generating 15 qualified meetings per SDR per month at an average deal size of $24,000, the result is clear: $220,000 in annual SDR cost produces 360 qualified meetings per year. XYNEXI at the Scale plan delivers the equivalent outbound volume at a fraction of that cost, with no ramp period in year one and no attrition risk in year two.
The ROI calculator above runs those numbers for your specific inputs. Enter your SDR headcount, fully-loaded cost per SDR, current meetings per SDR per month, and your average deal size. The output is your cost per qualified meeting comparison and projected annual savings.
How Does XYNEXI AI SDR Pricing Compare to Artisan and 11x.ai?
XYNEXI’s AI SDR pricing is token-based rather than seat-based. You pay for what you use. Each buyer conversation consumes tokens, unused tokens roll over, and there is no seat fee for platform access. This makes XYNEXI’s pricing structure different from Artisan and 11x.ai.
Artisan’s pricing is seat-based, starting at approximately $2,000 per month for access to Ava, their AI SDR. 11x.ai pricing follows a similar model, with enterprise pricing negotiated based on outreach volume. Both platforms charge for outreach volume and personalization quality. You pay for emails sent, not for buyers qualified.
XYNEXI’s token model means you pay for verified buyer conversations. Free plan: 200 tokens per month, no credit card required. Starter plan: for teams testing AI SDR at limited volume. Scale and Growth plans: for teams replacing a full SDR or BDR function. XYNEXI’s cost is tied to qualified buyer delivery, not activity volume.
Can an AI BDR Replace a Human BDR at a Lower Cost?
Yes. An AI BDR handles the same outbound development functions as a human BDR: identifying target accounts, initiating outreach, running discovery conversations, and qualifying buyers before passing them to account executives. XYNEXI’s AIRPEC engine runs these functions across multiple buyer conversations simultaneously, without the cost or variability of a human BDR team.
The cost comparison for BDR replacement follows the same structure as SDR replacement. A human BDR costs $90,000 to $130,000 in fully-loaded annual cost, with a 90 to 180-day ramp before they reach full performance. XYNEXI’s AI BDR handles the same outbound function at a fixed token cost, starting on day one, with no attrition risk and no senior BDR manager required.
For teams evaluating AI BDR costs alongside AI SDR costs, the important distinction is not the label. It is whether the platform qualifies leads through live conversation or hands off after the first email response. XYNEXI qualifies through conversation. That is the function that justifies the replacement.
Is an AI SDR Worth It for B2B Startups?
For early-stage B2B startups without an established SDR function, an AI SDR removes the hiring, onboarding, and management burden of building a human outbound team from scratch. The question is not whether an AI SDR is worth the cost. It is whether the startup has its ICP definition, value proposition, and pipeline targets clear enough to deploy the AI SDR effectively.
XYNEXI’s free plan (200 tokens per month, no credit card) is designed for startups that need to test AI SDR output before committing to a paid plan. You can run real buyer conversations, see qualification depth, and evaluate pipeline quality before the first payment. This is not possible with a human SDR hire.
For startups that already have an SDR function and are evaluating replacement or augmentation, the ROI calculator on this page runs the specific numbers. The inputs are your current fully-loaded SDR cost, meetings per SDR per month, and average deal size. The output is your break-even point and projected annual savings at each XYNEXI plan tier.
What Is the Break-Even Point for Switching to an AI SDR?
The break-even point for switching from a human SDR to XYNEXI is typically within the first 90 days for teams replacing one or more full-time SDRs.
The calculation: take the fully-loaded monthly cost of your current SDR headcount (salary, benefits, tools, and management overhead divided by 12). Subtract XYNEXI’s monthly token cost at the appropriate plan tier. The difference is your monthly saving from the switch. Divide the one-time transition cost (notice period, implementation time) by that monthly saving figure. The result is your break-even in months.
For most B2B teams with two or more SDRs at $90,000 or above in fully-loaded annual cost each, the break-even point is under 60 days. The ROI calculator above runs this automatically based on your inputs.
The cost of a human SDR team is fixed and scales with headcount. XYNEXI’s AI SDR pricing scales with volume. You pay for qualified buyer conversations, not salaries, ramp time, or attrition replacement costs. The ROI calculator runs your specific numbers. If the numbers work, the free plan gives you 200 tokens per month to test the AI SDR before you commit.
AI SDR ROI — Frequently Asked Questions
XYNEXI uses a token-based pricing model, not fixed seats. The free plan provides 200 tokens per month with no credit card required. Paid plans start at the Starter tier for teams testing limited volume, with Scale and Growth tiers for teams replacing a full SDR or BDR function. Exact token costs per plan are on the Pricing page. You pay for qualified buyer conversations, not email sends, outreach volume, or platform access regardless of use.
For outbound execution functions, yes. A human SDR costs $80,000 to $120,000 in base salary plus benefits, tools, management overhead, and six months of ramp before they reach full productivity. XYNEXI handles the same outbound development function at a fraction of that fully-loaded cost, starting on day one with no ramp period. The ROI calculator above runs the specific comparison for your SDR headcount and deal size.
Artisan's AI SDR pricing is seat-based, starting at approximately $2,000 per month for access to Ava. XYNEXI is token-based. You pay per qualified buyer conversation, not per seat. Artisan charges for outreach volume and personalization. XYNEXI charges for the full buyer conversation from first outreach through qualification and intent verification. For teams where qualification quality determines deal conversion rate, XYNEXI's cost model aligns payment to outcome, not activity.
Yes. XYNEXI starts producing qualified buyer conversations on day one, with no ramp period, no training, and no onboarding lag. Human SDR ramp is typically 90 to 180 days before a new SDR reaches full quota. A three-person team loses 270 to 540 SDR-days of full productivity per year to ramp alone, not counting attrition and rehire cycles. XYNEXI eliminates both.
The calculator uses four inputs: your current SDR headcount, fully-loaded annual cost per SDR (salary, benefits, tools, and management), current qualified meetings per SDR per month, and your average deal size. The output is your current cost per qualified meeting, XYNEXI's cost at each plan tier, your projected annual saving, and your break-even point in months.
Yes. The free plan provides 200 tokens per month with no credit card required. Free tokens reset monthly and give you capacity to run real AI SDR conversations with your target buyers. This is the live AIRPEC reasoning engine applied to your actual ICP, not a sandboxed demo. Evaluate pipeline quality and qualification depth before committing to a paid plan.
