CloseBot gives you a builder,
Setor gives you a Setter and a team.

CloseBot is a platform where you build an AI setter yourself, usually on top of your CRM. Setor is a full AI Setter that connects straight to your Instagram and Messenger, writes its first script from your past conversations and runs your DMs through to a booked sales call. See the comparison.

What is the difference between Setor and CloseBot?

CloseBot is a builder for AI setters, with white-label plans for agencies, that reaches Instagram through your CRM. Setor is a ready AI Setter that connects straight to your Instagram and Messenger, with a team that sells on Instagram behind it.

9 things you won't find in CloseBot's plans

Everything here exists to do one thing: turn your DMs into money.

  1. Sales dashboard

    Every call with its closer, deal value, cash collected, source and recording link. Plus show rate and close rate.

  2. ROAS and cost per sale

    See sales, cost per sale and ROAS for the people who came from ads to DMs, comments and lead forms.

  3. Learns from your past conversations

    Setor reads your existing Instagram conversations and writes a first script with your offer and your style.

  4. Import automations from ManyChat

    Setor rebuilds your automations from your conversation history and saves them as drafts in your voice. You publish them once the originals are off.

  5. Profile analysis

    A scan of your whole profile, a 0-100 score and a concrete fix for each element. After each change you see how visit to follow moved.

  6. Content publishing

    Plan posts, Reels and Stories up to 180 days ahead. Setor works out the best time from when people reply and book.

  7. Ultra

    Mentoring calls

    We work with you on show-up rate, content, goals and your clients' top problems.

  8. Ultra

    Unlimited 1:1 calls

You're not buying a tool. You're joining a team that sells on Instagram.

Mentoring in practice: an online personal trainer

Show-up rate from 40% to 72% in 3 months

This is what happens on our calls: we look at your numbers and fix what's costing you money.

  1. 40%August, where we startedOnly 40% of confirmed calls were actually held.
  2. 59%A call right after bookingOn our calls we set up a short closer call after booking and case studies in the DMs.
  3. 72%Videos and no-show automationFollow-ups with videos before the call, and people who miss get asked for a new slot. Three weeks in a row above 71%.

At this client's request we built booking inside the conversation in 13 days and a random split across closers' calendars in 31 days, then compared calendars on the numbers. On calls we work on your content, your goals and your clients' top three problems.

One client's account, no control group. 40% is the client's figure from our call on 4 Aug 2026. 59% and 72% come from the dashboard, 636 calls from 14 Sep to 2 Nov 2026: calls held out of calls held plus calls the lead missed. The client logs attendance.

What we work on in those calls

  • Show-upA call within 5 minutes of booking, material to go through first, reminders and short ads only to people already booked.
  • Ads2-3 new creatives a week. The weakest go off on 7-day cost per follower.
  • ClosersWe measure cash per call, because close rate is easy to inflate with cheap sales.
  • ObjectionsWe pull the top 3 objections from call transcripts and turn them into pre-call content.
  • Offer and paymentsWe look for a niche that can pay, and set up installments when sales slip away over price.
  • The Setter's scriptIgor writes it from your materials and checks it in the test chat before any lead sees it.

On every plan

  • Onboarding consultation
  • Chat support with quick replies
  • WhatsApp community and a course
  • We read the first conversations together and improve the instructions

On Ultra

  • Unlimited 1:1 calls
  • Mentoring calls
  • Dedicated success manager on WhatsApp
  • Premium community and the full course

We get better every week

Clients tell us what's not working, and we fix it. You pay for a product that looks different every month.

  • 2,325improvements in the last 12 months
  • 1,100improvements in the last 60 days
  • 128improvements a week, average of 60 days
  • 191improvements in the record week
Improvements in the last 12 full weeks. Of the improvements from the last 60 days, 971 are fixes and new features.

A cross means it isn't on the CloseBot plans, product pages or help center articles we read on 2 Nov 2026. On those pages CloseBot gets Instagram and Messenger from your CRM, not from its own connection.[1]

Why Setor and not CloseBot

  1. Instagram only through a CRM

    CloseBot says it doesn't reconnect channels itself and uses the ones your CRM already owns, and its standalone sources offer a chat widget and a webhook. Setor connects to your Instagram and Messenger directly.[3][6]

  2. You build it, we write it

    CloseBot sells a drag-and-drop builder with agent nodes, personas and job flows, and tells you to build and test agents yourself. In Setor the first script is written from your past conversations and checked in the test chat before any lead sees it.[2][3]

  3. Reports count bookings, not sales

    CloseBot's report metrics cover messages, bookings, lead score, sentiment and AI spend. A sale with an amount isn't on the list, and persona A/B tests, lead scoring and sentiment need a paid add-on. Setor shows value, closer, source and recording on every sale, on every plan.[4][7]

  4. Appointments in total, amounts one client at a time

    CloseBot's headline number is 1.2 million booked appointments across all accounts, and its case studies quote amounts for single clients. We show $430k+ in sales logged in the dashboard across Setor accounts, 584 of them with an amount.[2]

  5. Mentoring from people who sell on Instagram

    CloseBot lists 24/7 human support and a community with courses and daily live calls. Setor adds an onboarding consultation on every plan, and on Ultra mentoring calls, unlimited 1:1 calls and a success manager on WhatsApp.[1][2]

What clients sold with Setor

Where this money comes from

Counted across the bookings of all Setor accounts, not one client.

Bookings saved by Setor from 11 Sep to 1 Nov 2026, read on 2 Nov 2026. Follow-ups counted from 25 Sep, booking author from 13 Oct. Working hours are Mon-Fri 9:00-17:00 Polish time. Clients log the amounts, so they are a floor. A sale counts at the moment its call was booked.

Moving takes one consultation

  1. Pick a plan

    Monthly billing, cancel anytime.

  2. Onboarding consultation

    We connect your Instagram and calendar. Setor reads your past conversations, writes a first script and rebuilds your Instagram automations as drafts. Before you publish them, you switch off the originals, so two tools don't answer the same DM.

  3. Go live

    Usually live in a few hours. We read the first chats together and improve the instructions.

CloseBot alternatives: common questions

Everything you need to know about Setor AI, onboarding, and how your AI Setter works day to day.

If you sell through Instagram DMs and want a Setter that's ready to run, with the sales shown and a team behind it, Setor. If you're an agency that wants to white-label and re-bill AI setters across CRMs, or you need a very low price per reply at high volume, CloseBot fits better.

CloseBot is a platform for building AI setters, connected to HighLevel, HubSpot or run standalone, with white-labeling for agencies. Setor is a ready AI Setter for Instagram and Messenger, connected directly, with a sales dashboard and a team that sells on Instagram.

Yes, through your CRM. CloseBot says it uses the text channels your CRM already owns, such as Instagram DM and Messenger in HighLevel. Its standalone sources offer a chat widget and a webhook. Setor connects to Instagram and Messenger itself.

Yes. Its agents qualify leads, follow up in up to four cadences, check your calendar and book, reschedule or cancel in the conversation. You choose the model: OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Grok or DeepSeek. Setor's Setter books inside the DM and works with Calendly, GoHighLevel, Cal.com and iClosed.

CloseBot's Core plan is priced by AI replies a month: $97 for 500, $147 for 1,000, $197 for 2,000, $297 for 5,000, $497 for 20,000, $797 for 50,000 and $997 for 100,000, and the free plan has 100 replies. Setor Growth is $499 a month excl. tax and includes the AI Setter, the sales dashboard and an onboarding consultation, and on Ultra a message comes to about $0.056. You pay for sales, not for sending messages.

Both. The free plan has 100 AI replies a month and one team seat, with no card, and paid plans have a 7-day trial. Its FAQ says there are no refunds. Setor has no free plan or trial: you pick a plan and start right away, and billing is monthly.

Yes, for what runs on Instagram. Setor rebuilds automations from your conversation history: comments, DM keywords and story replies that ran in at least 5 conversations. They land in Setor as switched-off drafts written in your voice, and you publish one once you confirm the original is off. Your CloseBot personas and CRM workflows stay where they are.

Yes. The Setter takes the conversation all the way to the close. It has already sold both low-ticket and high-ticket offers, with only the confirmation left for the call.

Yes. On calls we sit down with you on show-up rate, ads, closers, objections and your offer. For one online personal trainer, show-up rate went from 40% to 72% in 3 months. Every plan has an onboarding consultation and chat, and Ultra adds unlimited 1:1 calls, mentoring and a success manager on WhatsApp.

40% of Instagram bookings come after the lead replied to a Setor follow-up, and those bookings bring 47% of logged sales. Counted on 3,675 bookings from 45 accounts, from 25 Sep to 1 Nov 2026.

Just reply to the lead on Instagram. Setor detects your reply and turns the AI off for that person, so you don't need to open the dashboard. You can change this in settings.

Growth has 2,500 AI tokens a month and Ultra 10,000. One token is one AI request, on average about 1.8 messages sent by the Setter, so that is about 4,500 messages on Growth and about 18,000 on Ultra. On the Ultra plan that is about $0.056 per message.

Setor uses daily send limits, a gradual ramp for new accounts, an automatic pause when Instagram refuses a send, and a profile and welcome-message check before the AI is switched on. This lowers risk but guarantees nothing, because Instagram has the final say. If your account gets restricted, we sit down with you and plan the way back.

Instagram and Messenger, where our clients sell.
