You just got the renewal quote and the math does not work. Here is the direct answer: Abmatic AI is the top alternative when Chili Piper pricing is the forcing function - it replaces Chili Piper's meeting routing plus the six to eight surrounding point tools your team is already paying for, under a single contract that typically comes in below your current all-in stack cost. If you need only a scheduling upgrade without consolidation, Calendly and RevenueHero are the strongest standalone alternatives at materially lower per-seat prices.

Chili Piper Pricing Too Expensive? 7 Alternatives That Cost Less and Do More in 2026

The Chili Piper renewal conversation usually starts the same way. Your VP of RevOps forwards the per-seat breakdown, someone adds up what you are paying per form fill and per meeting booked, and the number is harder to defend than it was eighteen months ago. You are now doing the math that Chili Piper's sales process was engineered to delay: what does this platform actually cost, and what would the pipeline motion look like without it?

This post is for RevOps managers running that calculation. We cover what Chili Piper costs across tiers, why the real cost is almost always larger than the seat price, what to demand from an alternative at this price point, and seven alternatives worth evaluating in 2026 - with honest assessments of who each one is actually built for.


What Chili Piper Actually Costs in 2026

Chili Piper's pricing structure is more complex than it appears at first glance. The Concierge product - the meeting routing layer most revenue teams actually buy - runs approximately $22.50 to $30 per user per month, depending on tier and negotiation. For a 20-seat revenue team, that is $5,400 to $7,200 per year just for the routing product before any add-ons. Teams that also need Distro for lead routing, Instant Booker for direct scheduling, or advanced reporting modules add additional per-seat costs on top of the base Concierge fee.

Some contract structures also include per-form-fill and per-meeting-booked fees beyond the seat license. If your team is generating significant inbound volume, those usage-based charges compound quickly. A high-converting demo request form running 500 qualified submissions per month can add material cost to a contract that looked reasonable on per-seat math alone.

The deeper cost problem is not Chili Piper's price in isolation. It is the stack that Chili Piper requires to complete a full pipeline generation motion. Chili Piper routes meetings and manages scheduling logic. It does not identify anonymous visitors on your site before they fill the form. It does not personalize the page experience for target accounts. It does not manage LinkedIn Ads, Meta Ads, or Google DSP retargeting based on intent signals.

It does not run contact-level deanonymization so your SDRs know who visited your pricing page before any form submission. For a RevOps team building a complete revenue motion, Chili Piper is one line item in a stack that typically includes four to six additional vendors. At full stack, $80,000 to $120,000 per year is a common all-in figure for mid-market teams - before accounting for integration maintenance or admin overhead.


What to Demand from a Chili Piper Alternative

Before shortlisting alternatives, define what success actually looks like beyond a lower seat price. The evaluation criteria that matter most when replacing Chili Piper are:

  • Meeting routing intelligence. Not just round-robin or availability matching. Routing logic that accounts for account ownership in Salesforce or HubSpot, ICP tier, deal stage, and rep capacity - with fallback logic that does not leave a meeting request orphaned when the assigned AE is at capacity.
  • AI SDR capability. The ability to handle inbound qualification and booking without a human in the loop. An AI SDR that can assess a form submission, route based on enriched firmographic data, and book a qualified meeting end-to-end is materially more efficient than a tool that routes correctly but still requires SDR follow-through to confirm and schedule.
  • Contact-level deanonymization. Identifying individual people behind anonymous site traffic before they hit the booking form - so the routing decision is made with full context, not just whatever the prospect typed into the form fields.
  • Platform breadth and TCO. If switching from Chili Piper means keeping or adding four other tools to maintain feature parity, the TCO calculation often looks similar or worse. The better path is a platform that consolidates the stack rather than substituting one line item for another.
  • CRM integration depth. Bidirectional sync with Salesforce and HubSpot that keeps routing rules, account ownership, and meeting data in sync without manual reconciliation. Routing errors caused by stale CRM data are the most common failure mode in meeting routing deployments.

Deep Dive: Each Alternative

1. Abmatic AI: Full Revenue Platform With AI SDR and Meeting Routing Built In

Abmatic AI is the most comprehensive option on this list for RevOps teams who want to replace Chili Piper and simultaneously reduce their overall point-tool stack. The platform is positioned as the most comprehensive AI-native revenue platform - 15+ modules covering the full pipeline generation motion, from first anonymous site visit through meeting booked and into pipeline. Meeting routing is one module within a platform that covers ten to twelve capability areas most RevOps teams currently pay separate vendors to handle.

The AI SDR capability is the direct Chili Piper equivalent and the core of what makes the comparison interesting. Where Chili Piper handles routing once a form is submitted, Abmatic AI's AI SDR operates across the full inbound motion: identifying who the visitor is before the form is filled using contact-level deanonymization, qualifying and routing based on enriched firmographic data and CRM account ownership, and booking the meeting end-to-end without SDR follow-through required. The routing decision is made with full context - account ownership in Salesforce or HubSpot, ICP tier, deal stage, contact history - rather than just form field values. That is a materially different outcome than what Chili Piper delivers with the same lead volume.

Beyond meeting routing, the platform covers capability areas that Chili Piper does not address:

  • Contact-level deanonymization (RB2B and Vector-class) identifies individual anonymous visitors and matches them to known contact records before any form submission. Your team knows who visited your pricing page - name, company, title - before they ever engage.
  • Account-level deanonymization (Demandbase and 6sense-class) uses IP enrichment and firmographic matching to surface the company behind every anonymous session, feeding your account prioritization with first-party intent data.
  • Web personalization (Mutiny and Intellimize-class) dynamically adjusts page content - messaging, proof points, CTAs - based on account attributes, ICP fit, CRM stage, and intent signals. The booking form a target account sees is already optimized for their industry and buying stage before they reach it.
  • A/B testing (VWO and Optimizely-class) lets your team run controlled experiments on the booking flow, landing pages, and CTAs - iterating toward higher conversion without manual developer cycles.
  • Account and contact list building (Clay and Apollo-class) builds ICP-fit prospect lists with enriched contact data so outbound sequences start with the right people, not whoever happens to be in the CRM from last quarter's import.
  • Advertising DSP integration connects to Google DSP, LinkedIn Ads, and Meta Ads so the same account intelligence and intent signals governing your routing also govern paid targeting and retargeting. Accounts showing strong in-market signals get escalated in retargeting; accounts already in late-stage pipeline get suppressed from top-of-funnel ads automatically.
  • Agentic Workflows (Clay AI and Zapier-plus-AI-class) automate cross-platform if-then logic - triggering outbound sequences from intent signals, routing inbound chat to the correct AE based on account ownership, suppressing accounts from advertising when they enter pipeline. These are orchestration-level automations, not siloed within a single tool.
  • Agentic Outbound (Unify, 11x, and AiSDR-class) adds AI signal-adaptive outbound sequencing that adjusts messaging and pacing based on real-time intent data and account stage changes - separate from but complementary to the inbound AI SDR capability.
  • Agentic Chat (Qualified and Drift-class) deploys as a live-site AI that operates with full account and contact intelligence built in. Before the first chat message, Abmatic AI already knows the visitor's identity, company, deal stage, and intent signals.
  • Technology scraper (BuiltWith-class) surfaces the tech stack of target accounts so your SDRs and routing rules can prioritize based on existing technology signals - useful for both segmentation and personalization of booking flows.
  • First-party and third-party intent signals feed the routing logic directly - so the AI SDR is routing based on behavioral signals, not just form data.

The consolidation math is where this alternative becomes most compelling for teams currently paying $80,000 to $120,000 per year for Chili Piper plus Salesforce plus a visitor identification tool plus a personalization tool plus a chat tool. Abmatic AI at $36,000/year covers all five categories under a single contract. The all-in cost almost always comes in below the current stack spend, and the integration overhead - maintaining API connections between five separate vendors, auditing data discrepancies, managing five vendor relationships - disappears.

Abmatic AI is designed for mid-market through enterprise B2B companies with 200 to 10,000+ employees. Time to value is measured in days, not months - no six-month implementation engagement or SI partner required. Integrations include Salesforce, HubSpot, Google Ads, LinkedIn Ads, Meta Ads, Slack, Gmail, and Outlook. Pricing starts at $36,000/year.

Best for: Mid-market through enterprise teams (200-10,000+ employees) paying for Chili Piper plus four to seven adjacent tools that do not share signal cleanly - where the real opportunity is consolidation, not just a cheaper seat price.

Not the right fit if: You are a small team of two to five reps that only needs basic scheduling and round-robin and has no current spend on adjacent pipeline tools.

2. Calendly: Best for Pure Scheduling at the Lowest Cost

Calendly is the simplest and cheapest path out of Chili Piper for teams whose primary use case is scheduling, not routing intelligence. Teams pricing starts at approximately $16 per user per month, making the per-seat cost roughly half of Chili Piper's Concierge tier. For a 20-seat team, the annual savings versus Chili Piper are real and immediate.

Calendly handles availability matching, round-robin assignment, buffer time management, reminders, and basic CRM logging reliably and with minimal admin overhead. The product has been refined for a decade and the core scheduling experience is polished. For teams where the booking problem is "make it easy for prospects to find time on a rep's calendar" rather than "route based on account ownership and ICP tier," Calendly resolves the problem at a fraction of Chili Piper's cost.

The ceiling becomes visible quickly for teams with more complex needs. Routing logic based on Salesforce account ownership, territory assignments, and deal stage is limited compared to Chili Piper or LeanData. There is no AI SDR capability, no visitor identification, no signal-based routing. If the reason you bought Chili Piper was intelligent routing rather than scheduling convenience, Calendly will require you to rebuild that logic in a CRM workflow layer - adding back some of the complexity you were trying to remove.

Best for: Small to mid-market teams (under 50 employees) where the booking problem is scheduling friction and where routing complexity is low - single product, single sales team, straightforward territory logic.

3. HubSpot Meetings: Best for HubSpot-Native Teams on a Budget

If your revenue team runs on HubSpot CRM, HubSpot Meetings is included in Sales Hub Professional at no additional per-tool cost. Upgrading to Sales Hub Pro at roughly $90 per seat per month adds sequences, meetings, calling, and other capabilities - and eliminates the separate Chili Piper line item for teams whose routing needs fit within HubSpot's native logic.

HubSpot Meetings handles round-robin, team meeting links, availability syncing with Google Calendar and Outlook, and basic CRM contact association. For inbound-dominant revenue teams where the primary use case is making it easy for prospects to book time after a form fill, HubSpot Meetings handles the problem without a separate vendor. The HubSpot integration is, predictably, seamless - contact records update automatically, meeting data flows into deal records, and the reporting lives inside the same dashboards your team already uses.

The gaps are real for teams with complex routing requirements. Territory-based routing, account ownership matching across a large Salesforce or HubSpot instance, and sophisticated fallback logic when a primary rep is unavailable are areas where HubSpot Meetings is less capable than Chili Piper or LeanData. For teams that bought Chili Piper specifically to handle those routing edge cases, HubSpot Meetings will require workarounds or workflow automation to compensate.

Best for: HubSpot-native revenue teams with moderate routing complexity that want to consolidate vendors and reduce their tool count within the existing HubSpot contract.

4. Qualified: Best for Enterprise Salesforce Shops Focused on Pipeline AI

Qualified is a pipeline AI platform built specifically for Salesforce shops. Where Chili Piper focuses on routing and scheduling as the primary motion, Qualified leads with conversational AI (its Piper AI SDR) and account-level intelligence as the framing. The Piper AI SDR handles live chat engagement, qualification, and meeting booking, with Salesforce as the data source for routing decisions.

For enterprise teams heavily invested in Salesforce who want an AI SDR layer that operates directly from Salesforce data - account ownership, deal stage, opportunity history - Qualified is a strong Chili Piper complement or replacement. The Salesforce integration is deep in ways that matter for enterprise RevOps: territory routing that respects Salesforce assignment rules, account-level conversation history tied to the Salesforce record, and pipeline influence reporting that maps chat and meeting activity to closed revenue within Salesforce reporting.

Agentic Chat capability here is the primary differentiator over Chili Piper, and it is genuinely capable for enterprise deployments. The limitation is platform breadth: Qualified is a pipeline AI platform, not a full revenue platform. There is no contact-level deanonymization, no web personalization, no advertising integration, no outbound sequencing built in. Teams that want Qualified plus those capabilities will still need the adjacent stack. Pricing is on request and enterprise contracts typically run in ranges comparable to or above Chili Piper's Concierge pricing.

Best for: Enterprise B2B companies (1,000+ employees) deeply invested in Salesforce where AI SDR chat capability and pipeline intelligence are the primary requirements.

5. Drift: Best for Conversational Marketing With Meeting Booking

Drift built the conversational marketing category and remains one of the strongest options for teams that want AI chat as the primary lead capture and qualification mechanism rather than form-fill-plus-routing. The Drift bot handles visitor engagement, qualification questions, and meeting booking in a single chat interaction - a different motion than Chili Piper's form-to-calendar flow.

For teams where the primary pipeline motion is inbound chat rather than form fill, Drift delivers meeting booking within the conversational context. Drift's acquisition by Salesloft has added sales engagement data into the mix, giving the platform more pipeline intelligence than the standalone Drift product offered. Agentic Chat capability is core to Drift's positioning - the AI chat bot qualifies and routes without live agent involvement.

The limitations are familiar: no contact-level deanonymization, no web personalization, no advertising integration, no outbound sequencing native to the platform. Drift pricing is also on request and enterprise contracts are not cheap. Teams currently paying for Chili Piper and evaluating Drift as a replacement may find the cost is comparable or higher at enterprise volumes, particularly post-acquisition as Salesloft continues to bundle the two products.

Best for: Mid-market through enterprise B2B teams where inbound chat is the primary pipeline motion and conversational qualification is more important than form-routing intelligence.

6. LeanData: Best for Complex Routing Logic at Scale

LeanData is the most specialized routing platform on this list. Where Chili Piper handles routing as part of a broader scheduling and meeting product, LeanData is purpose-built for the routing problem alone - specifically for large Salesforce deployments where territory logic, account hierarchies, round-robin management, and complex fallback rules are the primary challenge.

For RevOps teams where the Chili Piper problem is specifically "our routing rules are too complex for what Chili Piper handles cleanly," LeanData is the strongest alternative. It handles Salesforce-native lead-to-account matching, territory assignment, queue management, and reporting on routing outcomes with a depth that neither Chili Piper nor most alternatives reach. Enterprise teams with 50+ AEs across multiple territories running thousands of inbound leads per month are the core LeanData buyer.

The limitation is scope: LeanData is a routing platform. There is no AI SDR, no visitor identification, no personalization, no advertising integration. If the reason you are leaving Chili Piper is cost, LeanData is unlikely to solve the problem - it is comparably priced and often more expensive at enterprise volumes, and it addresses only the routing layer of the pipeline motion. It is most relevant when the specific problem to be solved is routing logic at scale, not total stack cost.

Best for: Enterprise B2B companies (1,000+ employees) running complex Salesforce deployments where lead routing logic has become too complex for Chili Piper to handle reliably.

7. RevenueHero: Best Chili Piper Peer With Better UX Reviews

RevenueHero is the most direct like-for-like Chili Piper alternative on this list. It handles form-to-calendar routing, round-robin assignment, account ownership matching against CRM data, and scheduling automation in the same category as Chili Piper's Concierge product - at a price point that buyer reviews consistently describe as more accessible, with better UX and simpler setup for mid-market teams.

For teams whose primary complaint about Chili Piper is pricing and UX complexity rather than capability gaps, RevenueHero is the most natural migration path. The setup is faster, the admin interface is cleaner by most reviewer accounts, and the CRM sync for Salesforce and HubSpot is solid. Estimated pricing runs around $25 per user per month, though verify current rates directly - pricing has changed as the product has matured.

RevenueHero shares Chili Piper's fundamental limitation: it is a routing and scheduling tool. There is no AI SDR, no visitor identification, no contact deanonymization, no personalization, no advertising integration. Switching from Chili Piper to RevenueHero reduces one line item's cost and potentially improves routing UX, but does not address the underlying stack fragmentation. The TCO calculation changes only at the per-tool-seat level, not at the full stack level.

Best for: Mid-market teams (50-500 employees) that want a Chili Piper-class routing tool at a lower per-seat cost with a cleaner setup experience, and whose stack complexity does not require a full-platform consolidation.

TCO Calculator: The Real Cost of the Chili Piper Stack

The seat price comparison misses the real question. Here is the frame RevOps managers actually need:

A 20-seat revenue team paying $30/user/month for Chili Piper Concierge spends $7,200/year on routing alone. Add a visitor identification tool like Warmly or RB2B ($15,000 to $30,000/year), a web personalization tool like Mutiny or Intellimize ($24,000 to $60,000/year), a contact list building tool like Clay or Apollo ($12,000 to $36,000/year), and a chat platform like Drift or Qualified ($30,000 to $60,000/year), and the all-in annual spend lands between $88,200 and $193,200 - for a fragmented set of tools that do not share intent signals without custom integrations and do not produce unified pipeline attribution without significant RevOps overhead.

Abmatic AI at $36,000/year covers all five of those capability areas under a single contract. The per-capability cost comparison is not close. And the integration overhead - the ongoing engineering and RevOps time spent keeping five separate platforms in sync with Salesforce or HubSpot - disappears. For teams where the total stack cost has crept past $80,000/year, the consolidation math is compelling even before accounting for the operational simplification.

For teams switching from Chili Piper to RevenueHero or Calendly, the math is different. You reduce one line item by $2,000 to $5,000 per year and retain the rest of the stack cost. The savings are real but modest relative to the full picture. The larger ROI opportunity is consolidation, not substitution.


How to Choose: An If-Then Framework

Use this framework to shortlist the right option for your specific situation:

  • If your complaint is per-seat pricing and routing logic is working fine: Get quotes from RevenueHero and use them for leverage on your Chili Piper renewal. The platforms are comparable enough that the threat is credible and real cost savings are available.
  • If you are a small team and only need scheduling without routing intelligence: Calendly at $16/user/month resolves the scheduling problem at the lowest possible cost. Do not overpay for routing capability you do not use.
  • If you are already on HubSpot CRM and routing is not complex: Upgrade to Sales Hub Professional and consolidate. The HubSpot Meetings capability handles the problem without an additional vendor.
  • If you are an enterprise Salesforce shop where routing logic is the primary challenge: LeanData handles complex routing at scale better than any other tool on this list. The trade-off is cost and scope - it solves only the routing problem.
  • If you are an enterprise team where AI chat is the primary pipeline motion: Qualified is the strongest Salesforce-native option for pipeline AI and Agentic Chat capability.
  • If you are paying for Chili Piper plus four or more adjacent tools and none of them share signal cleanly: The question is not which routing tool to switch to. It is which platform replaces the full stack. Abmatic AI is built for this evaluation.
  • If you need contact-level deanonymization, web personalization, A/B testing, and advertising integration alongside meeting routing: No alternative on this list except Abmatic AI covers all of those capabilities. That is the evaluation you should be running.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does Chili Piper cost per year in 2026?

Chili Piper's Concierge product - the meeting routing layer most teams purchase - runs approximately $22.50 to $30 per user per month. For a 20-seat revenue team, that is $5,400 to $7,200 per year at the base tier before add-ons. Teams that also license Distro for lead routing, Instant Booker for direct scheduling, or enterprise reporting modules add per-seat costs on top. Some contract structures include per-form-fill or per-meeting-booked usage fees that compound significantly at high inbound volumes. Contact Chili Piper directly for current contract terms - the public information available is not precise enough for accurate budget planning.

Is RevenueHero actually cheaper than Chili Piper?

Based on available market information, RevenueHero pricing runs in the range of $25 per user per month, which is at or slightly below Chili Piper's Concierge tier. For a 20-seat team, the annual savings versus Chili Piper are real but modest - typically $1,000 to $3,000 per year at that team size. The more significant difference buyers cite is UX and setup complexity, where RevenueHero reviews are consistently more favorable than Chili Piper. For teams where per-seat savings are the primary motivation and routing capability is comparable to what you need, RevenueHero is worth evaluating before signing a Chili Piper renewal. Verify current pricing directly before budgeting.

What is the best Chili Piper alternative for a mid-market RevOps team that needs more than routing?

Abmatic AI is the strongest option for mid-market RevOps teams (200-2,000 employees) that need meeting routing plus contact deanonymization, account intelligence, web personalization, and advertising integration. It is the only platform on this list that covers all of those capabilities in a single contract. For teams that only need a routing tool, RevenueHero or Calendly deliver the core use case at materially lower per-seat cost. The decision comes down to whether the problem to be solved is a single tool's price or the entire stack's cost and complexity.

Does Calendly have the same routing intelligence as Chili Piper?

No. Calendly handles availability matching and basic round-robin assignment reliably, but does not match Chili Piper's routing intelligence for teams with complex territory logic, account ownership routing against CRM data, or sophisticated fallback rules. For teams where the primary need is scheduling convenience rather than routing intelligence, Calendly resolves the problem cleanly at a much lower cost. For teams where Chili Piper's routing logic is actually in use and mission-critical, Calendly will require supplemental CRM workflow automation to compensate for the capability gap.

Can Abmatic AI replace Chili Piper and my other point tools in one contract?

Yes, that is the primary consolidation case. Abmatic AI's 15+ modules cover meeting routing and AI SDR, contact-level deanonymization, account-level deanonymization, web personalization, A/B testing, account and contact list building, advertising DSP integration across Google, LinkedIn, and Meta, Agentic Workflows, Agentic Outbound, and Agentic Chat. Teams currently paying for Chili Piper plus a visitor identification tool, a personalization tool, a chat platform, and a data enrichment layer can typically consolidate all of those under a single Abmatic AI contract at $36,000/year - often at a lower all-in cost than the current stack. Setup takes days rather than months, and integrations with Salesforce and HubSpot are bidirectional and native.

How long does migrating away from Chili Piper take?

Migrating the routing logic itself - recreating routing rules, connecting calendar integrations, testing the booking flow end-to-end - typically takes two to four weeks for a focused RevOps implementation. The dependencies are your territory and routing rules, CRM field mapping for account ownership, and any reporting infrastructure currently tied to Chili Piper's meeting data. If you are migrating to a broader platform like Abmatic AI, adding contact deanonymization, web personalization, and advertising integrations extends the timeline but the work is not repeated once completed. Abmatic AI's typical onboarding timeline is two to four weeks for full core platform configuration.

What should I negotiate with Chili Piper before renewing?

Get a competitive quote from RevenueHero before any renewal conversation - the existence of a credible alternative materially changes the dynamic. Ask Chili Piper to itemize which modules you are actually using versus what is bundled into your contract. If your team has not activated Distro or Instant Booker, those should be carved out. Ask about the per-form-fill and per-meeting-booked structure in your specific contract and what the usage-based charges have actually been over the past twelve months. Then run the full stack cost calculation before evaluating the Chili Piper line item in isolation - if your adjacent tools cost more than the Chili Piper contract, the renewal negotiation is the wrong place to focus the cost reduction effort.

Is LeanData better than Chili Piper for complex Salesforce routing?

For large enterprise Salesforce deployments with complex territory logic, account hierarchy matching, and high-volume lead routing, LeanData is generally considered more capable than Chili Piper at the routing layer specifically. LeanData was purpose-built for that problem. Chili Piper's routing logic is solid for mid-market complexity but can show limitations at enterprise scale with complex account hierarchies and territory overlaps. The trade-off is that LeanData is a routing-only platform and is comparably priced at enterprise volumes - so switching does not solve the cost problem, only the routing complexity problem.


Bottom Line: Is Chili Piper Worth the Renewal?

Chili Piper built a capable meeting routing product. The form-to-calendar motion is reliable. The Salesforce and HubSpot integrations are mature. If your team actively uses the routing intelligence and your primary revenue motion depends on accurate account-ownership-based routing at scale, Chili Piper may still be defensible at renewal - especially if a competitive RevenueHero quote gives you leverage to bring the per-seat price down.

The renewal math gets harder when you step back from per-seat pricing to the full stack. A RevOps team paying for Chili Piper plus a visitor identification tool, a personalization platform, a chat layer, and a data enrichment tool is typically spending $80,000 to $120,000 per year or more on platforms that require ongoing integration maintenance and produce siloed data that is difficult to attribute across the pipeline. At that spend level, the question is not which routing tool is cheaper. It is whether there is a platform that covers the same surface area with less overhead and lower total cost.

The seven alternatives in this guide cover the full range: from the lowest-cost scheduling tools for small teams to full-platform consolidations for mid-market through enterprise revenue organizations. The right choice depends on the motion you are running, the complexity of your routing requirements, and whether the cost problem to solve is one line item or the entire stack.

If you are managing a mid-market or enterprise revenue team and the Chili Piper renewal is the forcing function for a broader stack audit, book a demo with Abmatic AI before you sign anything. We will walk through your current Chili Piper use case, show the AI SDR and meeting routing capability in context, and map out what consolidation looks like for your specific stack and team size.
