ConvoScore vs Drift
Salesloft has confirmed the standalone Drift product is being wound down. If you are mapping out your next move, here is how a focused, self-serve alternative compares.
Drift pioneered conversational marketing, was acquired by Salesloft, and the standalone product is now being sunset into the wider Salesloft suite. Existing customers are choosing where to go next.
ConvoScore automates the qualification itself. The AI runs the conversation, scores the lead and notifies your team. No always-on rep, no sales call to get started, and you can have it live on your site today.
If you only need to know which leads are worth your team's time, this covers that slice without an enterprise migration. If you want a fuller picture of every option, see our vendor-neutral guide to the Drift shutdown.

The honest bit
When ConvoScore is not the right replacement
If your team works chat in real time and you need meeting routing, account targeting and deep CRM plays, look at Qualified or the Salesloft platform before ConvoScore. ConvoScore is the better fit when you want qualification to happen automatically, around the clock, without staffing it.
The short version
Drift is going away. If your reps mainly need to know which leads are worth their time, ConvoScore covers that on day one, self-serve, with nothing to migrate.
