Compare/ Sektra vs Drag

The Drag alternative that remembers the client

Drag turns Gmail into boards. Sektra turns your team's mail into an inbox that sorts itself and a record of every client relationship, across Gmail, Outlook and WhatsApp.

The difference

Inbox tools organize. Sektra runs the inbox and remembers the client.

Commitments and open questions

Every promise and unanswered question, tracked per client across email and WhatsApp. Nothing is lost when a thread is archived.

Quiet-account flags

Sektra learns each client's normal rhythm and says when it breaks, while a check-in still reads as care.

An assistant that acts

Ask what was promised and get a cited answer. Hand it the work and it assigns, drafts, reminds and watches for you.

Common questions

We think in boards. Does Sektra have them?
Sektra orders the inbox by consequence and lets you filter by intent, owner and state, which covers what most teams use a board for. What it adds is the reason each thread is where it is, and a memory of the client behind it.
Can we run both during a trial?
Yes. Your mail stays in Gmail or Outlook underneath either tool, so connecting Sektra changes nothing about the current setup. Every new workspace starts with 14 days of Pro, no card required, which is enough to run the two side by side on the same inboxes and decide.
Is there anything to migrate?
No. Sektra connects over OAuth to the mailboxes you already run and reads the history that is already there, so the memory of each client is complete from the first day.
Is Sektra more expensive than Drag?
Per seat, yes. Drag is the lowest-priced serious entry in the category. Sektra includes the assistant, the memory layer, WhatsApp and Outlook in the plan price, which are the things a team outgrows Drag for.
How does pricing compare?
Sektra Standard is $29 per seat billed annually ($35 monthly) and Pro is $59 annually ($69 monthly). Every AI feature is in the plan price rather than an add-on, and each seat adds credits to a pool the whole team shares, so one heavy assistant user never becomes a line item.
