PumpGTM vs Gojiberry

You signed up for two trials on the same evening. Both promise to watch LinkedIn for people who are about to need what you sell, write the message, and send it while you sleep. Both are run by small YC teams. One costs $99, the other $75. A prospect wrote to me this week asking exactly this: "Before moving forward, I would like to understand how your platform differs from Gojiberry."

This is my answer, written by me, Namanyay, founder of PumpGTM. Bias declared. Every Gojiberry fact below comes from gojiberry.ai, its FAQ and help pages, or from named public reviews, meaning intact. Where Gojiberry is the better pick, I say so.

What PumpGTM is

PumpGTM is an AI go-to-market engine for founders and small B2B teams. It finds buyers showing intent right now, scores them, runs a paced sequence from your own LinkedIn, email and X accounts, and puts a drafted reply in front of you the moment someone answers.

How it works

Before any message goes out, PumpGTM looks for a live reason to talk: a Greenhouse, Lever or LinkedIn Jobs posting for the role you sell into, a funding round, a tooling change, or engagement on a relevant LinkedIn post. You can also import a Sales Navigator list or the people who engaged with a competitor's post. Every lead gets a score out of 100 and anyone under 60 gets no message. You see the score and the reason for each name before you approve the batch. The lead scoring post has the cutoff logic.

The sequence then runs from your own accounts at a human pace: 5 to 7 connection requests a day in the first week, a like on a relevant post before the request, a contextual follow-up after acceptance. Email steps go from your own Gmail, Microsoft 365 or IMAP mailbox. X DMs to people who liked or replied to a relevant post are in early access.

When a prospect replies, that thread stops. Connect Slack and a drafted answer lands there, ready to send when a human hits approve. Faster replies are the whole point; the deals you lose in outbound are usually the ones you answered a day late.

It also runs as an MCP server at mcp.gigacatalyst.com with OAuth, so Claude, Cursor or Codex can find buyers, send LinkedIn messages and read replies.

Proof

Last 7 days, one SF team, September 2026: 546 invites sent, 356 accepted (68%, against about 20% industry standard), 98 qualified replies, 38 enterprise demo meetings booked. PumpGTM runs GTM for 10+ YC companies. Early customers include founders at Workers.io, Supermemory, Harbor, Plek and Smol Machines. Dhravya Shah at Supermemory: "PumpGTM found exactly the right leads for my business and reaches out to them, automatically." We are Giga Next Inc., a Y Combinator company in San Francisco.

What Gojiberry is

Gojiberry is an AI outbound agent that watches LinkedIn and market signals (post engagers, competitor followers, job changes, hiring, funding), scores those people against your ICP, and sends personalized LinkedIn and email outreach. It is Paris-founded, in the YC Spring 2026 batch, 7 people, and self-reports $2.5M ARR with 2,000+ paying customers.

Its strengths are real and specific. The signal list is long, marketed as "30+ intent signals," and reviewers on G2 praise its "ability to spot real buying intent on LinkedIn and turn those signals into timely, hyper-relevant outreach." Pro includes email waterfall enrichment across 15+ providers, a unified inbox, and native HubSpot and Pipedrive sync. When a prospect responds, "a tailored reply lands in your inbox, already written, ready to send in one click." You can run "full auto or approve before it sends." There is an API and a remote MCP connector for Claude. Trustpilot reviewers call setup simple and support "extremely responsive." G2 has it at 4.6 from 15 reviews, Trustpilot at 4.4 from 67.

The weak spots are also on record. The most repeated complaint in third-party reviews is the two-sender cap on Pro, with Custom pricing unpublished when you need more. SalesRobot's review says "lead scoring is a black box you can't tune." G2 reviewers mention "user interface being slow and tricky at first, and some workflows needing refinement," and ask for a longer trial before billing. Trustpilot carries a one-star "Do not use their solution, it doesn't work" from August 2026 and two complaints about unanswered emails over unpaid payouts. Reviewers note the signals only work when your buyers are active on LinkedIn, and that "signal depth varies, some are surface-level." Documentation is thin, with a roughly two-week learning curve on signal configuration. Exact daily sending caps are not published.

Pricing side by side

Gojiberry Pro is $99 a month as of September 2026: "2 AI agents prospecting 24/7," up to 1,800 prospects contacted a month, warm leads from signals and lookalikes, unified inbox, AI Copilot, email waterfall enrichment, CRM, API and MCP integrations, live chat. Custom is "Talk with us" for teams of 5+ and agencies, price not published. Free trial, no card required per HeyReach's review, trial length not published. Month to month, cancel anytime. Note that gojiberry.ai/pricing returned a 404 when checked on September 15, 2026; pricing lives on the homepage.

PumpGTM Pro is $75 a month (list $99) for up to 3,000 leads identified a month as of September 2026, additional users $25 a month each, 7 day trial with card required when the live trial starts, month to month, cancel anytime. Enterprise is custom for 5+ users.

Those two volume numbers measure different things. Gojiberry counts prospects contacted. PumpGTM counts leads identified with a score and a reason; how many get contacted depends on your approval and the daily pace. Compare the sample lists, not the caps.

Choose Gojiberry if

You want the widest signal catalogue on day one and you are fine tuning nothing. Thirty-plus signals, lookalikes of your best customers, and a long track record of paying customers.

You need HubSpot or Pipedrive to update itself. Gojiberry syncs natively; PumpGTM hands you the qualified replies and leaves the CRM to you.

You want a no-card trial and a unified inbox for two accounts out of the box.

Choose PumpGTM if

You want to see why each name is on the list before anything sends. The score and the reason are on every lead, and the cutoff is fixed and visible.

Your buyers are not only on LinkedIn. Email runs from your own mailbox, and X DMs to post engagers are in early access, all from one lead list.

You answer replies from Slack and want the draft waiting there, not in another inbox to check.

You would rather have the founder set your first campaign up with you. I do that on a call for new signups, and I run GTM for several YC companies myself.

You want $75 instead of $99 and 3,000 leads instead of 1,800 contacts, with the caveat above about what each number counts.

The objection you already have

"Gojiberry has 2,000 customers and you launched in September." True. They are further along, their review count is real, and their signal list is longer than ours today. What we have is a score you can see and argue with, three channels from your own accounts, reply drafts where you already work, last week's numbers, and $75 a month. The Lemlist and HeyReach head-to-heads cover the sequencing tools, the AI SDR tools for startups shortlist puts Gojiberry and PumpGTM against 11x and Artisan, and the three-way compare page has Lemlist in the same table.

Next step: start the 7 day trial. Card required when the live trial starts, cancel anytime. Or reply to the welcome email and I will set the first campaign up with you.

Questions people ask

Is PumpGTM cheaper than Gojiberry? Yes, $75 a month against $99 as of September 2026, both month to month. Gojiberry's trial needs no card; PumpGTM's 7 day trial asks for a card when the live trial starts.

Do both find leads from intent signals? Yes. Gojiberry markets "30+ intent signals" including post engagers, competitor followers, job changes and funding. PumpGTM uses hiring, funding, tooling changes and post engagement, then shows a score out of 100 and skips anyone under 60.

Which one does email? Both. Gojiberry runs LinkedIn and email steps in one workflow with waterfall enrichment across 15+ providers. PumpGTM sends email steps from your own Gmail, Microsoft 365 or IMAP mailbox, and adds X DMs in early access.

How do replies work? Gojiberry drops a drafted reply in its unified inbox, one click to send. PumpGTM stops the thread and puts the draft in Slack for approve, so you answer from where your team already is.

Which is safer for my LinkedIn account? Neither can promise safety. Gojiberry publishes "human-like sending limits" without exact caps. PumpGTM runs from your own account at 5 to 7 requests a day in week one and ramps from there.

Can I export from Gojiberry if I switch? Lead data exports as CSV from the Contacts section and pushes via API, HubSpot or Pipedrive. Conversation export is not documented. Your list becomes one source inside PumpGTM's lead universe and keeps its origin.
