Comparison
Settyn vs setting agency
Delegate your DMs to a team of setters, or hand them to an AI that writes like you? Cost, control, availability: the no-nonsense comparison.
In short
A good setting agency brings experienced humans and sometimes advice on your offer and scripts. In exchange: a high monthly cost or a commission on your sales, weeks of onboarding, and your playbook in third-party hands. Settyn executes the same setting work — qualification, follow-ups, booking — for the price of software, with a 30-minute setup, under your full control.

Frequently asked questions
Doesn't an agency bring more than software?
On setting execution (replying, qualifying, following up, booking), the AI does the job more consistently and with better availability. What an agency can add is strategic advice on your offer — an occasional need that doesn't necessarily justify €2,000/month of execution.
Can AI really match an experienced setter?
On volume, speed and consistency, it exceeds them: 30-second replies, 24/7, zero forgotten follow-ups. For very sensitive cases you keep 1-click takeover — the winning model is the AI qualifying and you (or your closer) closing.
What if I already work with an agency?
Many test Settyn in parallel on one channel (e.g. WhatsApp) during the free trial, compare booked calls, then decide. The switch is seamless: accounts connect in minutes.
Who writes the sales scripts?
Nobody: there are no scripts to write. The AI learns your tone and arguments from your real conversations and your knowledge base, and you validate its style in the playground before going live.
