Which fits you

Which one is right for you.

Qualified was founded by former Salesforce executives and its AI SDR "Piper" is built natively on the Salesforce Platform. Its three-modality conversation experience (chat, voice, video) and integration depth — reading and writing Salesforce leads, opportunities, and custom objects — stand out among competitors. Its official site cites 500+ companies, and Salesforce completed its acquisition in April 2026 (consideration fair value of $1.2B). With Agentforce integration underway, it is the enterprise heavyweight, backed by deep resources and a strong track record.

When Meeton Chat fits

  • You want to launch pipeline-generating chat with a Japanese-native product and support
  • You want to evaluate with published pricing (base plan from ¥150,000/mo plus add-ons)
  • You run a non-Salesforce-centric stack such as HubSpot, and want a one-line JS tag, 5-minute install

When Qualified (Piper) fits

  • You are an enterprise with Salesforce as the system of record and want engagement deeply wired into CRM data
  • You need real-time voice and video conversation experiences on top of chat
  • You are investing in a Salesforce-centric stack with Agentforce ecosystem integration in view

FAQ

FAQ

What is Qualified (Piper)?

Qualified is a US-born agentic marketing platform whose AI SDR "Piper" converses with website visitors via chat, voice, and video, autonomously handling lead qualification, meeting booking, and AI email. It is built natively on the Salesforce Platform; Salesforce completed its acquisition in April 2026, and integration into Agentforce is underway as "Qualified from Salesforce." In June 2026 it also announced "Hunter," an outbound prospecting agent (contact identification + email sequences), so it is no longer inbound-only.

How much does Qualified cost?

Qualified's pricing is not disclosed. Officially, only three plan tiers (Premier / Enterprise / Ultimate) and their feature differences are published; actual amounts require a demo booking and custom quote (as of 2026). Meeton ai publishes its pricing: base plan from ¥150,000/mo plus add-ons (meeting booking / win-back, ¥50,000/mo each).

Does Qualified support Japanese and the Japan market?

Piper's conversation features claim multi-language support, and in June 2026 — timed with Agentforce World Tour Tokyo — Piper was made available to try in Japanese on the Salesforce Japan official site. However, no dedicated Qualified Japan entity, Japanese-language support organization, or Japan pricing page has been confirmed (as of July 2026). If a Japanese-native product and support are prerequisites, the Japan-made Meeton Chat is the practical choice.
