The Agency Verdict

HubSpot AI is a solid tool — full crm + marketing automation in one platform and ai built into emails, landing pages, and workflows. For individual creators or established enterprise teams, it can absolutely justify its cost. But for marketing agencies doing project-based work, the math gets painful fast.

With HubSpot AI at $800/mo (Marketing Hub Professional), a 10-person agency pays Marketing Hub Enterprise from $3,600/mo. That cost scales with every new hire and doesn't flex with workload — you pay the same whether it's a slow week or a sprint. Credits often cap your output mid-project, forcing awkward conversations with clients.

Incudo's credit-based model solves this. Your whole agency runs on one plan — unlimited seats — and you pay for AI output, not headcount. Credits roll over so nothing is wasted. When a big campaign hits, you buy more credits. When things slow down, you're not burning cash on unused seats. It's the pricing model agencies have always needed.
