Agentic Index
11x vs Alta (2026)
This is the enterprise AI SDR head to head where both vendors sell through sales conversations. 11x leads with the digital worker story, Alice and Jordan as named employees. Alta counters with breadth and governance: SDR, calling, and RevOps agents in one platform, SOC 2 Type II and ISO certification, and reference customers including Snowflake and Deel. Neither publishes pricing, so the evaluation is capability and proof.

Choose 11x if
- The named worker model, one agent owning outbound, one owning inbound, maps to how you plan headcount.
- You are buying the category leading brand for an executive sponsored initiative.
- Testing and memory depth in our matrix point to a maturing autonomous core.
Choose Alta if
- Governance is the gate: SOC 2 Type II and ISO certification are documented, and our matrix scores Alta Full on security and observability at high confidence.
- You want SDR, calling, and RevOps agents from one vendor instead of stitching three.
- Snowflake and Deel as reference customers derisk the enterprise conversation.
