Smartlead is a cold email sequencer focused on unlimited email accounts, built-in warmup, and high send volume at relatively low list prices. Plans scale from Base ($39/mo) through Unlimited Prime ($379/mo). Popular with agencies and growth teams who already bring their own leads (often from Clay/Apollo) and need a reliable sender.
