Frequently asked questions

What happened to Chorus.ai?

Chorus.ai was acquired by ZoomInfo in 2021 and has been fully absorbed into the ZoomInfo platform. It is no longer available as a standalone product — you must purchase the full ZoomInfo suite, which starts at $25,000+/year with annual contracts and minimum seat requirements.

Is Coldread a good alternative to Chorus?

Yes. Coldread covers the core conversation intelligence features Chorus was known for — AI transcription, call analysis, objection detection, and contact intelligence — at a fraction of the cost. Starting at $29/mo with no annual contract, it's ideal for small and mid-sized sales teams priced out by ZoomInfo.

How much cheaper is Coldread than Chorus/ZoomInfo?

ZoomInfo (which now includes Chorus) starts at $25,000+/year with mandatory annual contracts. Coldread starts at $29/mo for up to 2 users — a 5-person team saves over $24,000/year compared to ZoomInfo pricing.

Can I switch from Chorus to Coldread?

Yes. Sign up for a free 14-day trial, connect your VoIP provider (Aircall or Ringover), and start analyzing calls in minutes. No migration needed — Coldread works as a direct replacement for Chorus's call intelligence features.

Does Coldread have the same features as Chorus?

Coldread covers the features that made Chorus popular: AI transcription, call analysis (objections, buying signals, sentiment), contact intelligence, and compliance checks. ZoomInfo adds B2B data enrichment and prospecting tools — but most teams looking for call intelligence don't need those extras.

Do I need a sales demo to get started with Coldread?

No. Unlike ZoomInfo, Coldread is fully self-serve. Sign up, connect your phone system via webhook, and you're analyzing calls in under 5 minutes. No demos, no sales calls, no onboarding meetings.
