| Sierra | Beagle | |
|---|---|---|
| Where it lives | Your customer channels - chat, voice, SMS and email. | Slack and Microsoft Teams, as a teammate. |
| Reads your channels | Customer conversations and your systems of record. | Every channel it is invited to, scoped to what each teammate can see. |
| Takes initiative | Reactive by design, with proactive outreach campaigns. | Pipes up unprompted when something needs you. |
| Acts across your tools | Your billing, order and CRM systems. | Drafts and does the work across ~2,700 connected apps. |
| Learns your team | Remembers the customer, not your team. | Remembers your tone, your people and what you decided. |
| Asks before acting | Escalates to a human rather than asking first. | Always waits for your nod before anything goes out. |
| Pricing | Outcome-based, quoted per contract. | Free to start - 1,000 credits, no card. $49/mo adds 5,000 monthly. |
