If you’re a B2B SaaS team using Qualified today, you’re probably great at the classic motion:
identify high-intent visitors → route to the right rep → book a meeting → run the demo later.
In 2026, that’s increasingly not enough. Buyers want to experience the product in-session—not wait for calendar availability.
This is the core difference we’re educating:
Qualified is built to optimize conversations and routing. Aimdoc is built to optimize the buyer experience—especially AI-led product demos and trial activation.
Quick decision
- Choose Qualified if you’re enterprise, deeply Salesforce-centric, and want best-in-class routing/alerts for inbound and ABM.
- Choose Aimdoc if you’re B2B SaaS and want to turn high-intent traffic into AI product demos and AI onboarding for trial users (Speed-to-Demo and Speed-to-Activation).
Where they overlap
Both Aimdoc and Qualified can support the core “convert inbound” loop:
- Website conversations and Q&A
- Lightweight qualification
- Meeting scheduling
- CRM alignment (logging + routing to the right owner)
What Qualified is designed for
Qualified built its category leadership around engaging website visitors and connecting them to sales quickly.
In practice, Qualified is strongest when your goal is:
- Route fast (owner-based routing, ABM tiers, VIP alerts)
- Qualify efficiently and book meetings
- Operationalize inbound for enterprise teams with complex rules

- AI SDR narrative (Piper): Qualified Piper newsroom
Qualified also positions Piper as an AI SDR that can engage and convert website visitors—especially valuable if your success metric is “get the meeting booked.” (See the Piper overview above.)
What Aimdoc is designed for (B2B SaaS + AI-native)
Aimdoc is built around a different question:
“What if the best demo experience could happen instantly—before a rep ever joins?”
For B2B SaaS teams, that means going beyond “chat → meeting” and enabling “chat → demo → activation.”
Aimdoc’s core focus:
- AI-led product demos: show the product live, tailored to the buyer
- End-to-end demo flow: from qualification to a hands-on experience (not just scheduling)
- AI onboarding for trial users: help new trial accounts reach activation faster
See the demo experience here: Demo Copilot
The key distinction: Speed-to-Rep vs Speed-to-Demo
Both tools can help you convert inbound. But the optimization target is different:
-
Qualified optimizes Speed-to-Rep
- Best when a human rep is the “product experience.”
- Your win condition is booking the meeting and getting the right person there.
-
Aimdoc optimizes Speed-to-Demo (and Speed-to-Activation)
- Best when your product can be experienced immediately.
- Your win condition is the buyer leaving the session thinking “I get it,” and the account moving toward activation.
If you’re PLG or hybrid PLG, this matters: the fastest path to revenue is often demo → trial → activation, not “demo request → wait.”
Aimdoc vs Qualified: practical differences for B2B SaaS teams
1) Buyer experience depth
- Qualified: a strong system for engaging, identifying, routing, and converting via meetings.
- Aimdoc: a system for educating buyers deeply and progressing them through a guided experience (including in-product experiences).
2) AI product demos (not just “talk to sales”)
Most teams using Qualified still deliver the actual demo through:
- a human rep
- an interactive demo tool
- or a scheduled call
Aimdoc is built so the demo can be the next click—right when intent spikes:
- Start from a high-intent page (pricing/integrations/security)
- Qualify quickly inside the conversation
- Launch an AI-led interactive demo that shows what the buyer asked about
3) AI onboarding for trial users
For B2B SaaS, the real bottleneck is often not “booked meeting”—it’s activation.
Aimdoc’s demo flow can extend naturally into trial onboarding:
- “Here’s how to set up your first workspace / integration / dashboard.”
- “Let’s configure the product for your use case.”
- “Here are the next 3 steps to get value this week.”

4) Pricing and packaging
- Qualified: quote-based pricing and packaging (their pricing page lists Premier/Enterprise/Ultimate tiers; see Qualified Pricing).
- Aimdoc: published pricing aligned to B2B SaaS growth teams (see /pricing).
At time of writing, Aimdoc plans include:
- Pro: $199/month
- Business: $699/month
- Demo: $1,499/month
- Enterprise: Custom
Who should stay on Qualified?
Qualified is a strong fit when:
- You’re enterprise and deeply invested in Salesforce-centric workflows
- Routing complexity (territories, owners, ABM tiers) is the main problem to solve
- Your buyers expect a rep-led sales cycle and demos are primarily human-delivered
Who should choose Aimdoc instead?
Aimdoc is the better choice when:
- You’re B2B SaaS and you want to win on Speed-to-Demo
- You want your website to deliver a real product experience (not just a conversation)
- You care about trial activation, not just meetings booked
- You want a platform that’s built for the modern “AI-native buyer experience”
A migration path for teams currently using Qualified
If you’re “use-qualified” today (Qualified is working, but you want more depth), don’t rip and replace on day one.
Start with a pilot:
- Pick one high-intent page (pricing or integrations)
- Define what “qualified” means (your real follow-up threshold)
- Measure: qualified conversations → demo starts → meeting rate → activation rate
- Expand once you see lift in Speed-to-Demo and activation
