LEADBEAM VS BADGER MAPS

A quick take

Badger Maps is a route planner first: reps choose the accounts, Badger orders the stops, and Badger AI runs outside the app, in a separate AI assistant. Leadbeam is an AI-native field sales platform for B2B teams: it finds and scores businesses before they reach your CRM, briefs reps with live research, and turns every visit into connected records in the CRM you already run. Leadbeam is proven to find your team's revenue.

Choose Badger Maps if

  • Your reps run the same recurring routes every week.
  • Your team already runs its work through an AI assistant.
  • You need territories built and balanced for coverage.

Choose Leadbeam if

  • Your CRM holds only part of your market.
  • You want AI built into the app, not a separate assistant.
  • Your reps lose hours a week to admin work.
  • Your managers need to know which coaching conversation to have next.

The difference

Badger Maps’ AI sits outside the app, working on accounts you already have. Leadbeam does it natively, with no separate AI tool to connect: it finds the businesses you’ve never logged, briefs the rep before every door, turns the visit into clean records, and tells the manager what to fix.

The math

What 5 hours a rep, every week, turns into.

Leadbeam saves time only when reps use it. When they do, Pulse logs the CRM entry and Compass plans the route, so the time saved goes back to selling. Enter your team size and how long a visit takes, including drive time.

Field reps on your team

Minutes per visit, drive included

in new first-year revenue those visits could win, at your numbers

That is the selling time of 5 full-time reps, without a new hire.

Hours saved assume 5 hours per rep per week, as reported by SumUp, over 48 working weeks. Revenue uses your win rate and average account value. Your team’s results will vary.

Before you switch

Questions from teams on Badger Maps.

Still deciding? A 20-minute first call answers most of it.

What’s the difference between Leadbeam and Badger Maps?

Badger Maps is a route planner first: reps choose the accounts, Badger orders the stops, and Badger AI runs in a separate AI assistant, which can require a paid plan. Leadbeam is AI-native and built for B2B: Atlas finds and scores businesses before they reach your CRM, Beamly briefs reps with live web research, Pulse turns each visit into connected CRM records, and Studio tells managers what to fix.

Badger Maps has AI now. Isn’t that the same thing?

Badger AI isn’t built into the app: reps switch to Claude or ChatGPT (a paid plan on ChatGPT), which works from their Badger accounts and prompts; voice-to-CRM is still coming soon. Leadbeam builds it in and keeps going. Atlas finds and scores businesses you’ve never logged, Beamly briefs reps with live web research, Pulse turns voice, photos and text into connected CRM records, and Studio hands managers specific issues to coach.

Will our reps actually use it?

Field tools get abandoned when they add work. Leadbeam takes work away: Pulse writes the CRM entry, Compass plans the route and Beamly preps the visit. 100+ ClassPass field reps open Leadbeam every day.

How do we switch from Badger Maps without disrupting the team?

Start with one team on Leadbeam while the rest stay on Badger Maps, compare adoption and pipeline against that control group, and time the full switch to your Badger Maps renewal. Your CRM stays the system of record throughout.

Do we have to replace our CRM?

No. Leadbeam connects natively to Salesforce, HubSpot, Zoho, Pipedrive, Dynamics 365 and SAP. Badger Maps also syncs two ways with most major CRMs, but its Business plan syncs one object and 30 custom fields. No company CRM yet? Leadbeam CRM is built for the field.

Do we need Badger’s Enterprise plan to sync everything?

On Badger Maps, yes. Business syncs one object, one activity type and up to 30 custom fields; unlimited objects and fields start on Enterprise at $95 per user per month. Leadbeam’s Starter plan includes unlimited custom fields at $59 per rep per month, billed annually.

Does AI update records without a rep checking them?

No. Pulse prepares the records and the rep stays in control, inspecting every generated contact, field and relationship before approving the update.

Is Leadbeam enterprise-ready?

Leadbeam is ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified, SOC 2 Type II audited and GDPR compliant. Data is encrypted with AES-256 at rest and TLS 1.3 in transit, access is role-based and logged, and the platform runs on AWS.

What if reps work without reception?

Reps can capture without reception. Pulse captures all the information and syncs it to the CRM once the signal returns.

How much do Leadbeam and Badger Maps cost?

Both publish pricing. Badger Maps charges $58 or $95 per user per month billed annually, or $69 and $109 monthly, with add-ons from $12 per user. Leadbeam publishes per-rep plans: Starter at $59 and Pro at $149 per rep per month, billed annually, with Enterprise quoted around your team, CRM and rollout.
