Overview
Keap combines CRM, marketing automation, sales pipeline, invoicing and payments for small service businesses. It is now branded “Keap, A Thryv, Inc. Brand” following its acquisition by Thryv.[15]
Keap offers a library of prebuilt automations across marketing, sales, service and operations, such as lead nurture, abandoned-cart and review-request sequences, along with pipeline automation, task management, billing automation, lead scoring and automation history.[15] AI content and automation assistants are included.[15]
Pricing starts at US$320 a month on monthly billing or US$3,195 a year on annual billing, with two user licences included and extra users at US$39 a month each; contact tiers are priced on a sliding scale.[15] A required implementation package is part of the offer, though its price is not listed, and annual contracts carry a US$299 early-termination fee.[15] Text marketing is available only in the US, in tiers from US$24 to US$279 a month.[15] The free trial excludes payment processing and texting and limits e-mail to 25 messages.[15] Keap’s all-in-one scope suits owner-operated businesses, but its entry price is high relative to e-mail-first tools.
