vs

More meetings. Less managing.

Docket puts an AI agent on your website that answers product-expert questions, qualifies and books meetings, drawing on a knowledge lake built from your CRM, call recordings and docs, from $3,000 a month. Darwin does the answering and booking too, at a published per-meeting price, and keeps testing its openings. Here's how they compare.

THE SIDE-BY-SIDE

The difference,
at a glance.

Docket is aimed at B2B companies selling something complicated, with an enterprise budget and a wish for an agent that has absorbed every Gong call and Confluence page. Darwin is aimed at teams that want meetings from their website this week, set it up themselves, and pay per booking rather than sign a year-long contract. The rows below compare automation, setup and price.

THE DARWIN DIFFERENCE

Your chat works on getting better.

Darwin keeps trying new openings on the pages you allow it to, and it keeps the ones that get visitors talking and booking. You don't run the tests. You just show up to the meetings.

A LITTLE MORE DETAIL

Before you
make the move.

How much does Docket cost?

Growth starts at $3,000 a month, billed annually, and covers up to 20,000 monthly visitors with unlimited conversations and implementation by Docket's team. Scale starts at $4,000. Docket says plainly that there's no free trial. Darwin's Origin plan has no monthly fee, throws in five bookings, and charges per meeting booked from there.

58
Can Docket book meetings?

It does. Every Docket plan lists meeting booking with calendar integration, and the agent runs qualification and discovery before it books anything. Darwin's chat proposes a time and lets your connected scheduler close the loop. With either product, it's worth confirming what the calendar tool actually records as a booked meeting.

579
What does Docket learn from?

Docket assembles what it calls a Sales Knowledge Lake from your CRM, your call recordings in Gong or Zoom, and documents sitting in Google Drive, Notion, Confluence and SharePoint, and Docket's own team does the assembling during a one-to-two-week implementation. Darwin starts smaller and faster: it reads your website and whatever knowledge you add, and you can set it up yourself.

2410
Does Docket improve its openings on its own?

Docket mentions active learning components, but its public pages don't describe testing different openings or promoting a winner. Darwin writes opening variants for each page, tests them, keeps the better one and starts the next test.

Published by Darwin, using the official documentation linked below. This is a comparison of documented capabilities, not a hands-on benchmark. “Not documented” means the reviewed sources do not establish that capability; it does not prove absence. Docket prices are annual plans by monthly visitor volume with unlimited conversations, and no trial. Darwin bills for booked meetings. Setup means preparing a draft, not automatically installing it.
