Qualified belongs to Salesforce.
Aijent belongs to your CRM.
Qualified is the category benchmark and we will not pretend otherwise. It is also an enterprise product, sold through a demo and an annual contract, and it is being folded into Agentforce.
The fact: Salesforce acquired Qualified, completed April 2026, and Piper is being folded into Agentforce.
Piper qualifies visitors and books meetings well, and it has years of refinement behind it. What it does not do is create the meeting. It books on a connected calendar, so the video room is whatever you set up beforehand. Aijent asks Zoom, Microsoft or Google for a new meeting for that specific booking, attaches it, and sends the invite.
The bigger difference is how you buy it. Qualified is demo-gated with no public rates, an annual contract and a sales-led implementation measured in weeks. Aijent has a published price, a 14-day trial with no credit card, and you are live in minutes from one script tag.
And qualification is set for you during implementation. With Aijent you set the thresholds yourself, a fixed rule decides, and a poor-fit visitor is declined in your own words. Growth plan and above.
Qualified was built for the enterprise, and it shows in the price and the contract.
Aijent was built so a mid-market team can run it themselves.
