- How do they charge?

- Which one is a better deal?
- Depends on what you need. Bonsai: Bonsai sits in the mid-market of freelancer and agency management tools — not the cheapest option out there, but not trying to compete with enterprise project management platforms either. They're going after independent professionals and boutique agencies who've outgrown spreadsheets but don't need the complexity of something like HubSpot or Teamwork. Keap: At $299/mo to start, Keap is firmly in the premium SMB bracket — more expensive than entry-level tools like Mailchimp or HubSpot Starter, but targeting small service businesses that need CRM plus automation plus basic text marketing in one place. They're not chasing startups; they're going after established small businesses willing to pay for an all-in-one that doesn't require a developer.
