A better alternative than Monaco
Monaco is sharp for outbound sales, pairing AI agents with a prospect database and automatic call notes, but it stops at the close: no tickets, quotes, invoicing, payments, or broadcast marketing. Laureo runs all of that, with six AI agents (Ticket Triage on Ultra) and a price you can read before the demo.

Monaco's AI, and Laureo's agent roster
Monaco pairs sourcing and outbound AI agents with an assigned human sales expert who guides them, aimed at the top of the funnel. Laureo ships six named agents that start on their own when the work shows up across sales, the inbox, and service; five of them ask before they change anything, and Ticket Triage sorts new tickets on Ultra.
Laureo runs named agents instead. They work in the background and share one pool of monthly AI credits with no per-conversation fees. The five on the Agents page ask before they change anything and come with every paid plan; Ticket Triage comes with Ultra.
- Lead Router reads each new form lead, drafts a first reply and proposes an owner and a follow-up task.
- Deal Follow-Up flags deals that have gone quiet and drafts the next follow-up.
- Duplicate Guard checks each new company for a duplicate and proposes the merge.
- Quote Follow-Up drafts a follow-up when a client opens a quote without accepting it.
- Inbox Clerk turns email from your contacts into CRM work, such as a task, a ticket or a deal link.
- Ticket Triage sorts each new customer ticket and finds the matching help article, on the Ultra plan.
Every record is isolated to your workspace, there is a full history of who changed what, files are scanned for viruses before they are stored, the AI never trains on or keeps your data, and the platform is independently security tested and verified.
