My house was clearly designed with a receptacle right next to the sump
pump. But it's a two outlet receptacle.
It is still a "dedicated circuit" but to be 100% legal I would
install twist-lock receptacles and plugs to make it clear it is
DEDICATED to the specialized equipment with the matching plugs.

the last 3 cycles. The only exceptions now are for "ice melting
equipment" outside and alarm systems inside (basements crawl spaces
etc)
