HeyReach Alternatives: 10 LinkedIn Automation Tools Compared by Use Case

The best HeyReach alternative depends on what you are missing. If you want LinkedIn and email in one subscription, look at Dripify, Expandi, Skylead, La Growth Machine or lemlist. If you run one or two accounts and want a lower price, look at Linked Helper, Waalaxy or Meet Alfred.

If you run 25 or more LinkedIn accounts for clients, HeyReach is still hard to beat on published price per sender, and you may not need to switch at all.

We cover the product itself in our HeyReach review. This page compares ten alternatives using each vendor's own pricing page, read on November 11, 2026.

Some tool links here are affiliate links (disclosure). Nerdy Joe is an affiliate of HeyReach and of lemlist. We did not test these tools hands-on, and we link each vendor's site so you can check the figures.

Why people look for a HeyReach alternative

HeyReach is a LinkedIn automation tool built for agencies and teams that run many LinkedIn accounts in one campaign. These are the plain, sourced reasons a buyer might look elsewhere:

• No email sending. HeyReach handles LinkedIn only. Email runs through native integrations with Instantly and Smartlead, which means a second subscription.
• Price at low sender counts. Growth costs $79 per sender a month for 1 to 9 senders, as of November 2026. Several single-seat tools list less, and some include email.
• Proxies on the bigger plans. HeyReach's pricing page says the Agency and Unlimited plans require you to bring your own proxies.
• White label trade-offs. HeyReach's help center says white label users lose the native Instantly and Smartlead integrations.
• CRM gaps. HeyReach's integration directory lists no native Pipedrive or Salesforce integration.

If none of those bother you, skip to the section on when to stay with HeyReach near the end. The full plan breakdown is in HeyReach pricing.

Cloud, desktop or browser extension: how these tools run

LinkedIn automation tools run in one of three ways, and it changes how you work day to day.

From the vendor's servers. Campaigns run on a schedule whether or not your computer is on. Expandi describes itself as cloud-based software, Dripify and Meet Alfred say campaigns run from their servers, and Skylead lists "Cloud-based" in its comparison table. HeyReach's help center describes the same model: it opens a LinkedIn session through a dedicated residential proxy for each account, so your browser does not need to stay open.

From a desktop app on your computer. Linked Helper says it is desktop software installed on your own computer or a virtual server, and specifically "not as a browser extension". Dux-Soup, another long-running tool, sells both a local desktop option ($55 per seat a month) and a cloud option ($99 per seat a month). A local tool only works while that machine is running.

From a browser extension. Waalaxy's pricing page does not say how the product runs, but it links to a Chrome Web Store listing. An extension works inside your own browser session.

Several pricing pages do not state the model at all (lemlist, La Growth Machine, Salesflow, PhantomBuster), so ask the vendor if it matters to you.

One caution: how a tool runs is not a safety ranking. LinkedIn's limits and rules apply to every tool here, and none of them is approved by LinkedIn. We explain that in is HeyReach safe.

1. Expandi

Best for: one seat or a small agency that wants LinkedIn and email follow-ups in the same sequence.

Expandi describes itself as cloud-based software. Its Business plan lists at $99 a month, or $79 a month with the annual toggle (the page says annual billing gets you 2 months free). The trial is 7 days.

Email follow-ups sit in the same sequence as LinkedIn steps, which HeyReach does not offer natively. Expandi's Agency plan (10 or more seats) lists roles and permissions, client reports and white label, but its price is custom and not published.

Compared with HeyReach: Expandi costs more for one seat ($99 against $79) but includes email. At agency scale, HeyReach publishes its bundle prices and Expandi does not.

2. Dripify

Best for: sales teams that want each rep to run LinkedIn and email from one login.

Dripify runs on its own servers. Pro lists at $79 per user a month and Advanced at $99, or $59 and $79 on annual billing. The trial is 7 days with no card.

Dripify's pricing page says LinkedIn and email sit in the same sequence on every paid plan, with 100 email finder credits a month. Team management starts on Advanced, and Enterprise pricing is custom. An agency program is linked from the page without published details.

Compared with HeyReach: Dripify Pro and one HeyReach Growth sender cost the same $79 on monthly billing. Dripify adds email; HeyReach adds multi-sender rotation and bundle pricing from 25 senders.

3. Waalaxy

Best for: a low-cost start on a single LinkedIn account.

Waalaxy lists Pro at EUR 19 per user a month (300 invites a month), Advanced at EUR 49 (800 invites) and Business at EUR 69 (800 invites, 500 email finder credits and cold email sequences). The page shows quarterly billing as 20% off and yearly billing as 50% off, without listing the amounts. The trial is 14 days.

The invite numbers are Waalaxy's own plan limits, not LinkedIn figures. Enterprise is for teams of 5 or more seats and has no published price.

Older articles often mention a free Waalaxy plan. The pricing page we read on November 11, 2026 showed a 14 day trial and no free plan, so we do not claim one.

Compared with HeyReach: Waalaxy has the lower entry price by a wide margin. HeyReach is built for many accounts and client workspaces, which Waalaxy's pricing page does not clearly cover below Enterprise.

4. lemlist

Best for: teams whose main channel is email and who want LinkedIn steps in the same sequence.

lemlist is email-first. Its pricing page lists the Email plan at $69 a month ($55 on yearly billing) and Multichannel at $109 per user a month ($87 yearly). LinkedIn automation comes with the Multichannel plan, and the pricing FAQ describes a 14 day trial.

This is the opposite design from HeyReach: lemlist sends the email itself and adds LinkedIn, while HeyReach runs LinkedIn and hands email to another tool. HeyReach's integration directory lists no lemlist integration.

Compared with HeyReach: choose lemlist if email is the core of your outreach and you run a few LinkedIn accounts. Choose HeyReach if LinkedIn volume across many accounts is the point. Our lemlist review has the details, and lemlist alternatives covers its closest rivals.

5. La Growth Machine

Best for: multichannel sequences (LinkedIn, email and calls) priced per identity.

La Growth Machine prices per identity: Basic at EUR 60, Pro at EUR 120 and Ultimate at EUR 180 a month, or EUR 50, EUR 100 and EUR 150 on annual billing. The trial is 14 days with no card.

Every plan includes LinkedIn and email, and calls are on Pro and Ultimate. The page lists a dedicated mobile proxy per identity and free team members (3, 25 or unlimited by plan). Workspaces are an add-on, and no agency plan appears on the page.

Compared with HeyReach: La Growth Machine covers more channels in one tool. HeyReach has published agency bundles and white label, which La Growth Machine's pricing page does not show.

6. Linked Helper

Best for: the lowest price, if you are comfortable running software on your own machine.

Linked Helper is desktop software that you install on your own computer or a virtual server. Standard lists at $15 per license a month, and from $8.25 a month on a 12 month term. The trial is 14 days with no card.

The Pro price is not listed. The page lists workspaces with roles (Owner, Admin, Member, Guest), volume discounts from 10 licenses and email finding. We could not confirm email sending.

Compared with HeyReach: Linked Helper is far cheaper per account. The trade-off is that you run and maintain it yourself, and it has no hosted multi-sender setup or white label like HeyReach's Agency plan.

7. PhantomBuster

Best for: data extraction and one-off automations, not sequenced multi-sender outreach.

PhantomBuster is an automation and data extraction platform. Its own blog (modified July 21, 2026) lists Start at $69, Grow at $159 and Scale at $439 a month, or $56, $128 and $352 on annual billing, plus a free plan with 30 minutes of execution a month. The trial is 14 days with no card.

The live pricing page needs JavaScript and our tools could not read it, so these figures come from PhantomBuster's blog.

Compared with HeyReach: these two overlap less than it seems. PhantomBuster is a toolbox for extracting data and running single automations, while HeyReach is a campaign tool with an inbox and sender rotation.

8. Skylead

Best for: agencies that want LinkedIn and email in one bundle price.

Skylead lists its all-in-one plan at $100 per seat a month, with annual billing as "Pay 10 months & get 2 months free". The page lists unlimited email accounts and 100,000 emails a month. The trial is 7 days.

For agencies, the page shows a first-year promotion of $999 a month for 25 seats and an unlimited seats option at $1,999 a month, with an agency dashboard. White label is listed as an option with unpublished pricing.

Compared with HeyReach: Skylead's 25 seat promotion matches HeyReach's Agency 25 price ($999 a month) and includes email sending. Check what the price becomes after the first year. HeyReach's Agency plan includes white label, and its Unlimited plan ($2,999, capped at 300 senders) costs more than Skylead's unlimited seats option on list price.

9. Salesflow

Best for: larger teams that want per-seat pricing that falls as seats rise.

Salesflow lists Basic from $99 per seat a month, Starter from $70 (5 or more seats), Pro from $39.95 (20 or more), Agency from $29.98 (50 or more) and Enterprise from $24.99 (100 or more). The Agency and Enterprise prices require an annual commitment, billed monthly. A free trial with no card is offered; the page does not state its length.

White label URL and interface customization are listed, though the page does not show which tier includes them. Whether email sending is included is not clearly stated.

Compared with HeyReach: Salesflow's Agency tier (from $29.98 a seat at 50 or more seats) is close to HeyReach Agency 50, which works out to $27.98 per sender on monthly billing by our arithmetic. Salesflow needs an annual commitment for that rate; HeyReach's figure is its monthly price.

10. Meet Alfred

Best for: one seat that covers LinkedIn, email and X.

Meet Alfred says campaigns run from the cloud. It lists LinkedIn Only at $59, Multi-Channel at $69 and Agency at $79 per seat a month (3 seat minimum, with white label), or $39, $49 and $59 on annual billing. The trial is 7 days with no card.

Email and X are on Multi-Channel and above. One caveat: the comparison table on Meet Alfred's own pricing page shows different plan names and prices from the plan cards, so confirm the current price at checkout.

Compared with HeyReach: Meet Alfred's agency plan with white label starts at 3 seats, a much lower entry point than HeyReach's 25 sender Agency bundle. HeyReach's per-sender price is lower once you fill a bundle.

How to choose by use case

If you keep HeyReach and only miss email, pair it with a sequencer it integrates with natively: see our reviews of Instantly and Smartlead.

When to stay with HeyReach

Switching means rebuilding sequences and reconnecting accounts. Stay with HeyReach if most of these are true:

• You run 10 or more LinkedIn accounts and want them rotating inside one campaign.
• You manage clients in separate workspaces and want one inbox across all of them.
• You already send email through Instantly or Smartlead and only need the LinkedIn side.
• You need white label on your own domain (included on Agency).
• You build workflows with the API, webhooks or the MCP server, which HeyReach lists on every paid plan.
• You are at 25 or more senders, where the bundles work out to about $40 per sender at 25 and about $28 at 50 on monthly billing (our arithmetic).

The full HeyReach review goes through each of these in detail.

If you have not tried it yet, HeyReach's pricing page describes a 14 day trial with 3 LinkedIn accounts and no card.

A note on LinkedIn's rules

LinkedIn restricts third-party automation, and using any tool on this page carries a risk that LinkedIn restricts the account. No vendor here can promise otherwise, and we do not rank them by safety.

Rather not build the list yourself?

The list, the messaging and the weekly follow-up are where campaigns succeed or stall.

Nerdy Joe is owned by Agency Growth Partners (AGP), and AGP builds verified lists and runs outbound for agencies. If you would rather hand that off, book a call with David.

Bottom line on HeyReach alternatives

Pick by the gap you are trying to close. For email in the same tool, Dripify, Expandi, Skylead, La Growth Machine and lemlist all qualify. For a lower price on one account, Linked Helper, Waalaxy and Meet Alfred list less than HeyReach's $79.

For agencies and multi-account teams, HeyReach's sender rotation and bundle pricing are the reasons it exists, and only Skylead and Salesflow publish comparable seat pricing among the tools here. Read the HeyReach review before you decide, and check HeyReach's current plans or start its trial to compare it against your shortlist.
