HeyReach is a strong pick if you run LinkedIn outreach from many accounts at once, which mostly means agencies and sales teams with 10 or more senders. It is a weaker pick for one person with one LinkedIn account, because $79 a month buys LinkedIn steps only, with no email sending. Like every LinkedIn automation tool, it is not approved by LinkedIn, and no vendor can remove the risk that LinkedIn restricts an account.

HeyReach review: the short verdict
HeyReach is built around one idea: put many LinkedIn accounts into one campaign and rotate between them. Each account stays within its own daily and weekly limits, and total volume comes from the number of accounts. Replies from every account land in one inbox.
The pricing follows the same idea. You pay per LinkedIn account (a "sender") or buy a bundle of senders, and human users are free. The trade-offs are plain: no email sending, LinkedIn's rules against automation, a bring-your-own-proxy requirement on the bundle plans, and an "Unlimited" plan that is capped at 300 senders.
| Question | Short answer |
|---|---|

All HeyReach prices in this review are as of November 2026. HeyReach's own pages disagree by about $1 on some quarterly and yearly figures, so check the live price on HeyReach's pricing page before you budget.
What HeyReach is
HeyReach describes itself as a LinkedIn automation tool for agencies, sales teams and growth teams. Its homepage headline promises unlimited senders at one fixed cost, and its help center compares the product to "Smartlead for LinkedIn" or "Instantly for LinkedIn".
The homepage lists automatic sender rotation, lead import, LinkedIn steps (connection requests, messages, voice notes, profile views), a unified inbox, an API, an MCP server and a CLI. HeyReach is not an email sender: its multichannel page says HeyReach handles LinkedIn while Instantly or Smartlead handle email.
The company behind it
HeyReach's terms of service, effective November 19, 2025, name the provider as an Estonian corporation, with Estonian governing law and a court venue in Tallinn.
HeyReach says it is "Trusted by 8,000+ companies", which is its own claim. Its about page says that in 2023 it created what it believes was the first agency-friendly LinkedIn outreach tool. The pages we read name no founders, headquarters, headcount or funding, so we do not state any.
Who HeyReach is for, and who it is not for
Best for: agencies running LinkedIn outreach for clients. Client workspaces, a shared pool of sender seats, a cross-workspace dashboard and inbox, and white label on the Agency plan and up are all aimed at this buyer.
Best for: sales teams with many reps on LinkedIn. One campaign can use every rep's account, with one shared inbox.
Best for: technical GTM teams. The API, webhooks, MCP server and CLI are on every paid plan.
Not ideal for: a solo user with one LinkedIn account. At 1 to 9 senders, the $79 price is at or above several single-seat tools, and some of those include email steps.
Not ideal for: teams that want LinkedIn and email in one subscription. HeyReach needs a second tool for email, while several alternatives include email sending in the base product.
Not ideal for: anyone who cannot accept account risk. If a restricted LinkedIn profile would seriously hurt your business, read the safety section below before you connect anything.
If you are in one of the first three groups, you can compare HeyReach's plans here.
How sender rotation works
Sender rotation is the core of the product. HeyReach's help center says it is a default feature that needs at least two connected LinkedIn accounts, and that you can select an unlimited number of senders in one campaign.
The reasoning, in HeyReach's words, is that the only way to scale LinkedIn outreach is "by the number of senders." Each account stays within its own limits, and the campaign's total grows as you add accounts.
Three details matter in practice:
- Limits are per sender, not per campaign. A sender's daily limits are shared across every campaign that sender is in. HeyReach says campaigns launched first get priority, and you cannot set campaign priority yourself.
- InMail steps need Sales Navigator on every sender. If a campaign has an InMail step, every selected sender must have Sales Navigator or the campaign will not launch.
- Duplicate control happens at setup. Exclusion filters can skip leads contacted in other campaigns, leads messaged by other senders in the workspace, and leads or companies on your blacklist.
HeyReach's marketing says the tool can send "1000+" LinkedIn invites a week. That figure only works across many accounts: by our arithmetic, 10 senders at about 100 invites a week each.
One caution belongs here. We do not recommend renting, buying or creating fake LinkedIn accounts to fill a sender pool.
The sequence builder
HeyReach campaigns are built as a branching sequence of LinkedIn steps. You can build from scratch, start from a template, or import a sequence as a JSON file.
Steps and conditions
| Step | What HeyReach documents |
|---|---|
| Send Connection Request | Optional note with variables, a required fallback and A/B variants; optional auto-withdraw after a delay |
| Send Message | Only to 1st degree connections; variables, fallback and A/B variants |
| Send InMail | Needs Sales Navigator connected to HeyReach; needs a subject line |
| View Profile, Follow Profile, Like Post | Warm-up actions, 40 per sender per day, shared across campaigns |
| Add to Instantly, Add to Smartlead, Add to EmailBison | Hands the lead to an email tool |
| If connected | Branches on Connected vs Not Connected |
| Open profile check | Needs Sales Navigator; shares a limit of 250 checks per sender per day with "If connected" |
A connection request step creates two branches, "Accepted" and "Not Accepted Yet". HeyReach's example for the second branch is to push leads who did not accept into Instantly or Smartlead for an email follow-up.
Rules and limits in the builder
These rules come from HeyReach's help center:
- There is a minimum delay of 3 hours between two actions, except the first step on each branch of a condition.
- A connection request fails if the lead is already a 1st degree connection, has a pending request, or had a request withdrawn within the past three weeks.
- Leads on the "Not Accepted Yet" branch cannot move to the "Accepted" branch later.
- A campaign's lead list cannot be changed after launch.
HeyReach's own setup advice is to wait 7 to 12 days after a connection request before the next step, to run no more than two campaigns at once from one account, and to keep the acceptance rate above 20%. Those are HeyReach's recommendations, not results we measured.
Lead import and list building
HeyReach imports people from the LinkedIn search bar, Sales Navigator, LinkedIn Recruiter, LinkedIn event attendees, LinkedIn post reactors, CSV files and HubSpot. Company lists come from the LinkedIn search bar and Sales Navigator. LinkedIn Groups are not listed as an import source.
| Source | Limit per import, per sender | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Sales Navigator search | 2,500 leads | The sender who imports must be the sender who created the search and must have a Sales Navigator license |
| LinkedIn search bar | 1,000 leads | Works with free LinkedIn accounts; URL or keyword modes |
| CSV | Not stated | Requires LinkedIn profile URL, first name and last name |
HeyReach says there is no workaround to raise the 2,500 limit. List tools include combining, intersecting and excluding lists, plus CSV export of default columns.
A Blacklist feature, launched September 16, 2026, excludes up to 1,000 leads and 1,000 companies per workspace.
One gotcha for automated imports: HeyReach's help center says leads pushed through the API or Clay without a first name, last name or profile URL fail silently. If you also need verified emails for the email leg of a campaign, our Findymail review covers one option.
Personalization and voice notes
Personalization works through default variables plus custom variables from CSV columns, the API or Clay. Every message with a variable needs a fallback, and A/B variants are available on connection notes, messages and InMails.
We found no built-in AI message writer inside the sequence builder in the pages we read. HeyReach describes AI drafting through its MCP server and CLI with an external AI client instead.
AI voice notes
HeyReach announced voice notes on September 2, 2026. You record or upload a 20 to 30 second voice sample, HeyReach's AI clones it and assigns it to that sender, and written messages with variables are turned into audio in that voice. You can also choose a featured voice.
HeyReach says voice notes are live on all plans and currently in beta. They cannot be sent via InMail, and the announcement does not mention an extra cost.
The unified inbox (Unibox)
The Unibox puts conversations from every connected LinkedIn account into one inbox. Filters cover senders, campaigns, tags and message type.
Teammates can reply from another team member's LinkedIn account. That is useful for an agency or an SDR team, and it also means inbox access needs thought: HeyReach says a member with inbox access sees all conversations in that workspace's inbox.
Other documented features include canned messages, attachments, tags and bulk actions. Each LinkedIn account has a privacy setting: import all LinkedIn conversations, or track only conversations started from HeyReach.
Analytics and reporting
HeyReach announced Analytics 2.0 on August 26, 2026. Each metric pairs activity with outcome: connections sent vs accepted, messages sent vs replies, InMails sent vs InMail replies, and auto-tagged leads vs interested leads.
Further views break results down per step, per lead status and per sender. For agencies, the Master View dashboard exports as SVG, PNG or CSV, and scheduled or branded client reports are not documented in the pages we read.
Agency features: workspaces, seats, roles and white label
This is where HeyReach is most different from single-seat tools.
Workspaces. HeyReach's agency page describes separate workspaces for every client, with isolated data and controlled access.
Seat pool. Purchased sender seats sit in a central pool shared by all workspaces. Connecting a LinkedIn account takes a seat, you can cap seats per workspace, and only organization admins manage workspaces and seats.
Master View. Once you have more than one workspace, a cross-workspace dashboard and inbox turn on automatically.
Roles. There are two: Admin, with full access including billing, and Member, with View or Manage permissions per feature in each workspace. Permissions apply to whole screens, not individual campaigns or lists.
Free users. Team members, VAs and clients cost nothing on any plan. You pay for LinkedIn senders only.
White label and its trade-offs
White label is available on Agency and Unlimited. HeyReach says you can use your own domain, branding, colors and sign-in page. Setup is not self-serve: you ask HeyReach's team to do it.
The Agency plan includes one white label. Multi-brand white labels are a $500 add-on on Unlimited.
The trade-offs are documented and easy to miss:
- The native Instantly and Smartlead integrations, and the "Add to Instantly" and "Add to Smartlead" steps, are not available to white label users.
- White label users can see the email credit balance but cannot buy credits directly.
If your agency sells LinkedIn plus email as one service, that first point matters. You would need to connect email through webhooks, the API or an automation tool instead of the native steps. Our guide to email and LinkedIn outreach for agencies covers how the two channels fit together, and you can see what HeyReach's Agency plan includes on its pricing page.
HeyReach pricing explained
HeyReach has three self-serve plans plus a custom done-for-you service. Prices are in US dollars and, per the help center, exclude VAT. For every plan detail, add-on and billing rule, see our HeyReach pricing breakdown.
Plans and prices (as of November 2026)
| Plan | Monthly billing | Quarterly billing (10% off) | Yearly billing (20% off) | Senders |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Growth | $79 per sender; $59 per sender from 10 senders | About $72 per sender; $54 from 10 senders | About $64 per sender; $48 from 10 senders | Per sender, up to 50 |
| Agency, 25 senders | $999 a month | $900 a month | $800 a month | 25 |
| Agency, 50 senders | $1,399 a month | $1,260 a month | $1,120 a month | 50 |
| Unlimited | $2,999 a month | $2,699 a month | $2,399 a month | "Unlimited", capped at 300 |
| Done for you | Custom | Custom | Custom | Not applicable |
The quarterly and yearly per-sender figures are rounded on HeyReach's plan cards, and its help center lists figures $1 lower, so we say "about". The entry plan is called Growth on the cards, while the pricing FAQ still says "Starter" in two answers.
The phrase "starting at $799/month" on HeyReach's agency page matches the 25 sender Agency plan on yearly billing.
Growth vs Agency vs Unlimited: what changes
| Growth | Agency | Unlimited | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pricing model | Per sender | Bundle of 25 or 50 senders | Flat fee, up to 300 senders |
| Proxies | HeyReach provides a dedicated residential proxy per sender | Bring your own | Bring your own |
| Enrichment credits (one-time) | 100 per sender | 1,000 | 3,000 |
| White label | No | One included | Multi-brand at $500 per add-on |
| Onboarding and support | Not specified | 1:1 onboarding, dedicated Slack channel | Adds migration from another tool and priority support |
| Trial | 14 days, 3 accounts, no card | 30 days on request | 30 days on request |
Every plan includes unlimited campaigns, all LinkedIn actions, the unified inbox, the Instantly and Smartlead integrations, API and webhooks, and the MCP server. The help center lists multiple client workspaces, Master View and the shared seat pool under Agency and up.
Growth is best for teams with 1 to about 16 senders, and anyone who wants HeyReach to supply the proxies. Agency is best for agencies with roughly 17 to 50 senders that need white label. Unlimited is best for operations running well over 50 senders.
Cost per sender (our arithmetic)
HeyReach does not publish a cost-per-sender table. The figures below are our own division of HeyReach's published monthly prices by the number of senders, so treat them as estimates.
| Setup | Monthly price | Cost per sender per month |
|---|---|---|
| Growth, 1 sender | $79 | $79.00 |
| Growth, 9 senders | $711 | $79.00 |
| Growth, 10 senders | $590 | $59.00 |
| Growth, 50 senders | $2,950 | $59.00 |
| Agency, 25 senders | $999 | $39.96 |
| Agency, 50 senders | $1,399 | $27.98 |
| Unlimited, 100 senders | $2,999 | $29.99 |
| Unlimited, 300 senders (cap) | $2,999 | About $10.00 |
On yearly billing, by the same arithmetic, Agency 25 works out to $32.00 per sender, Agency 50 to $22.40, and Unlimited to about $8.00 at the 300 sender cap.
Four things fall out of the math:
- Ten senders cost less than eight. The $59 rate starts at 10 senders, so 10 senders ($590) cost less than 8 ($632) or 9 ($711). This assumes the lower rate applies to every sender once you reach 10, which is what HeyReach's own 10 sender example shows.
- Growth passes Agency 25 at 17 senders. Seventeen senders at $59 is $1,003, against $999 for 25 Agency senders.
- Growth passes Agency 50 at 24 senders. Twenty-four senders at $59 is $1,416, against $1,399 for 50.
- Unlimited only beats Agency 50 per sender at about 108 senders. $2,999 divided by 108 is $27.77. Below that, Unlimited makes sense only because you need more than 50 senders.
The bring-your-own-proxy catch
The math above leaves out one cost. On Growth, HeyReach provides a dedicated residential proxy for each sender. On Agency and Unlimited, HeyReach's pricing page says you are required to bring your own proxies.
HeyReach does not publish a proxy price, and we do not state one. That means the $39.96 and $27.98 per-sender figures are before proxy costs and before the work of sourcing and managing proxies. If you have none, HeyReach's FAQ says to book a call with its team.
A fair comparison between Growth and Agency adds your proxy cost per sender to the Agency number.
The Unlimited plan has its own catch: a fair use policy on the pricing page caps it at 300 senders. Past 300, the page says to contact support, and no price is published.
Enrichment credits
Each plan includes email finder credits: 100 per sender on Growth, 1,000 on Agency and 3,000 on Unlimited. HeyReach describes these as a one-time allocation, not a monthly refill.
Credits pay for the Find Email step inside campaigns, at 1 credit per successful lookup, and they do not expire. Top-up prices are not published.
Trial, refunds and cancellation
HeyReach's pricing page describes a 14 day trial with 3 LinkedIn accounts and no credit card. The help center says the trial does not convert to a paid plan automatically. For Agency and Unlimited, you can request a 30 day trial by form.
An Early stage program offers an unpublished discount to new customers under $250,000 in ARR with fewer than 5 people.
On refunds, HeyReach's help center says you can cancel in billing settings and keep access until the period ends. Its terms say fees are non-refundable, and no money-back guarantee is published. You can pause a subscription for up to two months instead of cancelling.
If the plan math works for your sender count, start HeyReach's 14 day trial with a few accounts before you commit to a bundle.
Is HeyReach safe? LinkedIn's rules and account risk
Our full guide to whether HeyReach is safe goes deeper. The short version is below.
What LinkedIn says
A note on sourcing first. LinkedIn's own pages could not be opened by our research tools, so we do not quote LinkedIn here. We paraphrase, and we link the pages so you can read the exact wording yourself.
LinkedIn's User Agreement restricts bots and other automated methods for adding contacts and sending messages. LinkedIn's help center has pages titled Prohibited software and extensions and Automated activity on LinkedIn. Third-party automation tools, including HeyReach, are not approved by LinkedIn, and LinkedIn can restrict accounts that break its rules.
The clearest statement we could verify comes from HeyReach itself. In an August 2026 blog post, HeyReach says LinkedIn's User Agreement "explicitly bans" software that automates connecting, messaging, liking and commenting. It adds that the only official LinkedIn integration covers ads and page publishing, not connection requests or messages.
HeyReach's footer also states that it is not associated with or endorsed by LinkedIn.
What HeyReach says it does to reduce risk
HeyReach's position, across its help center and blog, is that its design lowers the chance of a restriction. These are HeyReach's statements, not guarantees:
- Each sender has daily limits per action, shared across all of that sender's campaigns.
- HeyReach caps each sender at 40 connection requests a day (default 25) and 200 a week.
- "Cooldown Mode" stops a sender until the following Monday when LinkedIn stops accepting its requests.
- "Locks" delay sending for a couple of hours when HeyReach detects pushback from LinkedIn. Users cannot remove either.
- Each account runs through a dedicated static residential proxy that HeyReach says is never shared between two accounts.
In the same August 2026 post, HeyReach says automation carries risk and that outreach tools cannot be risk-free. An older help article on safety, dated February 2026, does not acknowledge any restriction risk. We give more weight to the later and more candid post.
HeyReach's stated limits
These figures are HeyReach's, not LinkedIn's.
| Limit | HeyReach's figure |
|---|---|
| Connection requests per day, per sender | Default 25, maximum 40; HeyReach advises against 40 and suggests 30 at most for warmed accounts with over 1,000 connections |
| Connection requests per week, per sender | Capped at 200 in HeyReach |
| Weekly reset | Monday |
LinkedIn does not publish a fixed weekly invitation number that we could find, and HeyReach's help center says the same. One HeyReach article puts the figure at about 100 a week per account, and another says it can reach 200 a week for some accounts. Figures like these come from vendors and from what users observe, and our guide to the LinkedIn connection request limit explains how to work within them.
The March 2026 LinkedIn action against HeyReach
Buyers should know about this, so we report it as HeyReach tells it. In a blog post published August 7, 2026, HeyReach says that on March 25, 2026, LinkedIn removed the HeyReach company page and restricted the personal profiles of four of its executives. HeyReach says this happened with no notice.
HeyReach says customer accounts, campaigns and the platform kept operating normally. It describes the action as part of a pattern of enforcement against third-party tools and says it was not singled out.
LinkedIn has not, to our knowledge, commented publicly, and the account above is HeyReach's alone. We draw no conclusion about what it means for any customer's account.
Who carries the risk
HeyReach's terms of service say it is not responsible for adverse action taken against a customer by a third-party platform. The service is provided "as is", and liability is capped at fees paid in the prior 12 months. The terms do not mention LinkedIn by name.
In plain terms: if LinkedIn restricts an account you connected, that risk is yours. For an agency, it may be your client's profile, so get the client's informed consent before connecting it.
What this means for you
Using any LinkedIn automation tool carries a risk that LinkedIn restricts the account. HeyReach says its limits and dedicated proxies reduce that risk. No vendor can remove it, and we will not promise that your account will not be restricted.
If you go ahead, HeyReach's own guidance points to conservative settings:
- Warm up new accounts slowly. HeyReach suggests 5 requests a day in week one, 10 in week two, and 15 to 20 from week three.
- Stay at or below the default of 25 connection requests a day.
- Keep your acceptance rate above 20% by targeting tightly.
- Run no more than two campaigns per account.
- Use HeyReach as the only automation tool on the account.
Multichannel: HeyReach does not send email
HeyReach's multichannel story depends on other tools. The sequence builder has three handoff steps: Add to Instantly, Add to Smartlead and Add to EmailBison. Each one passes a lead to a campaign in the email tool, and the email tool does the sending.
Three things to plan for:
- A second subscription. You pay the email tool separately. Our Instantly review and Smartlead review cover those costs, and both have trials: Instantly and Smartlead.
- No white label support. HeyReach's help center says the Instantly and Smartlead integrations are not available to white label users.
- EmailBison is less documented. The step exists, but HeyReach's own pages are inconsistent on whether to call the integration native, and we could not verify the setup steps.
If one tool for both channels matters more than multi-account scale, an email-first tool with LinkedIn steps may fit better. We compare the two approaches in HeyReach vs lemlist.
HeyReach integrations
HeyReach's integration directory listed 33 tools when we read it. The ones we could verify in detail:
| Tool | Type | What is documented |
|---|---|---|
| Instantly | Native, two-way | Campaign step sends leads to an existing Instantly campaign or list; Instantly triggers can add leads to HeyReach. Not available to white label users |
| Smartlead | Native, two-way | Campaign step sends leads to an existing Smartlead campaign; a SmartAgent pushes leads to HeyReach. Not available to white label users |
| Clay | Native action inside Clay | "Add Lead to Campaign" from a Clay table, with field and custom field mapping |
| HubSpot | Native, one-way, new version labeled Beta | Updates contacts matched by email and logs timeline events. Leads without an email are not synced, and it is not retroactive |
| n8n, Zapier, Make | Connectors using a HeyReach API key | n8n has a webhook trigger and an "Add leads to campaign" action; Zapier documents a "Message Reply Received" trigger |
HeyReach lists no native Pipedrive, Salesforce or lemlist integration. For those you would use Zapier, Make, n8n, webhooks or the API.
For agencies, each workspace needs its own HubSpot connection.
API, webhooks and CLI
The API and webhooks are included on Growth and up, which is unusual at the entry tier. Our HeyReach API guide lists every endpoint we could confirm.
Authentication. You send an API key in the X-API-KEY header on every request. Keys are created per workspace under Integrations, do not expire, and can be deleted or deactivated.
Rate limit. 300 requests per minute, shared across all requests. Going over returns an HTTP 429 response.
What you can do. In HeyReach's Postman docs we read endpoints to list, create, pause, resume and start campaigns, replace a sequence, schedule or sender list, and add up to 100 leads per request. Further API areas exist that we did not read endpoint by endpoint.
Webhooks. You create them under Integrations, give them a URL, an event type and optionally specific campaigns, and they go live immediately. The full event list lives in a Notion page that we could not read, so we do not publish one.
CLI. HeyReach says its command line tool can launch, pause and analyze campaigns. We could not read the install commands, so we do not describe setup.
The documentation is spread across Postman, Notion and the help center instead of one developer portal. If the API is your main reason to buy, test it during the HeyReach trial.
The HeyReach MCP server
HeyReach offers an MCP server on Growth and up, and its MCP page says it costs nothing extra. MCP (Model Context Protocol) lets an AI client such as Claude act on your HeyReach workspace.
HeyReach names Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Clay, n8n, Visual Studio Code and Make as supported clients. Its help center has setup articles for Claude, Clay, Visual Studio Code and Make, and we found none for ChatGPT or Cursor.
On June 12, 2026, HeyReach added 8 campaign tools to the server. They create a campaign in draft, clone an existing campaign, update the sequence, settings, schedule and sender accounts, read a sequence, and start a campaign. We could not confirm the full tool list beyond those 8.
One caution: no rate limits, permission scopes or audit logs are published for MCP. Because a StartCampaign tool exists, a connected AI client can launch a live campaign, so reviewing a draft before launch is your job. Our HeyReach MCP guide walks through setup and sensible guardrails.
LinkedIn account types HeyReach works with
HeyReach works with free, Premium, Sales Navigator and Recruiter accounts. Per HeyReach, free accounts get 5 to 10 personalized notes a month and no InMail, and Sales Navigator is needed for InMail steps, the Open profile check and Sales Navigator imports. Premium and Recruiter accounts cannot send InMails through HeyReach.
Campaigns run from HeyReach's servers through a proxy assigned to each account, so your browser does not need to stay open, per the help center's description of how accounts connect.
HeyReach vs the main alternatives
The LinkedIn automation market splits into two groups. Per-seat tools price each LinkedIn account separately and often include email. HeyReach prices bundles of accounts and leaves email to other tools.
The table uses each vendor's own pricing page, read on November 11, 2026, with monthly billing prices in the vendor's currency. LinkedIn's rules apply to every tool here equally, and none is approved by LinkedIn, so we do not rank them by safety.
| Tool | Email sending included | Agency or multi-account features | Starting price (monthly billing) | Trial |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| HeyReach | No | Unlimited senders per campaign, workspaces, white label on Agency and up | $79 per sender; $999 for 25 senders | 14 days, no card |
| Expandi | Yes | Agency plan with roles, client reports and white label (custom price) | $99 a month | 7 days |
| Dripify | Yes, on every paid plan | Team management on Advanced; Enterprise custom | $79 per user | 7 days, no card |
| Waalaxy | Only on Business | Enterprise for teams of 5 or more seats (no price shown) | EUR 19 per user (300 invites a month) | 14 days |
| lemlist | Yes, email-first | LinkedIn automation on the Multichannel plan | $69 (Email); $109 per user (Multichannel) | 14 days |
| Skylead | Yes | Agency promotion: $999 a month for 25 seats in the first year | $100 per seat | 7 days |
| Salesflow | Not clearly stated | Seat-tiered pricing, from $29.98 a seat at 50 or more seats on annual commitment | From $99 per seat | Free trial, length not stated |
A few fair observations:
- At 1 to 9 senders, HeyReach is not the low-price option. Its $79 matches Dripify Pro and sits above Waalaxy Pro.
- At 25 senders, the gap closes or reverses. HeyReach Agency 25 works out to about $40 a sender before proxies (our arithmetic). Skylead's first-year agency promotion matches the $999 price and includes email sending.
- Email is the big difference. If you want email in the base product, most alternatives have it and HeyReach does not.
For the full list, see our HeyReach alternatives guide and the wider roundup of the best LinkedIn automation tools. We also have head-to-head comparisons: HeyReach vs Dripify, HeyReach vs Waalaxy and the lemlist comparison linked above. Our lemlist review covers that tool on its own.
If multi-account scale is what you need, HeyReach's bundle plans are the reason to pick it over a per-seat tool.
HeyReach ratings on review sites
We fetched these on November 11, 2026. Treat them as a snapshot.
| Site | Rating (as of November 11, 2026) | Number of reviews |
|---|---|---|
| G2 | 4.6 out of 5 | 74 |
| Capterra | 5.0 out of 5 | 2 |
| Trustpilot | TrustScore 4.0 out of 5 | 51 |
HeyReach's own site displays a G2 score of 4.7, while G2's page showed 4.6 on the date we checked. We use G2's figure. Capterra has only 2 reviews, which is too few to lean on.
Trustpilot's distribution is split: 74% five star and 22% one star, with little in between. We do not quote individual reviews.
HeyReach pros and cons
Pros
- Built for many LinkedIn accounts in one campaign, with automatic rotation and one inbox for all of them.
- Bundle pricing lowers cost per sender at scale: about $40 at 25 senders and about $28 at 50 on monthly billing, before proxies (our arithmetic).
- Users are free. You pay per LinkedIn sender, not per teammate or client login.
- Agency features: client workspaces, shared seat pool, Master View, role permissions, and white label on Agency and up.
- API, webhooks, MCP server and CLI on every paid plan.
- Native two-way integrations with Instantly and Smartlead, a native Clay action and a HubSpot sync.
- A dedicated residential proxy per sender on Growth, and a 14 day trial with 3 accounts and no card.
- Frequent releases in 2026, including Analytics 2.0, voice notes and Blacklist.
Cons
- No email sending. Email needs Instantly, Smartlead or EmailBison and a second subscription.
- Not approved by LinkedIn, and account restriction risk stays with the customer under HeyReach's terms.
- Agency and Unlimited require you to bring your own proxies, an extra cost that HeyReach does not publish.
- "Unlimited" is capped at 300 senders.
- At 1 to 9 senders, $79 per sender is at or above several single-seat tools.
- White label accounts lose the Instantly and Smartlead integrations and cannot buy email credits directly.
- HubSpot sync is one-way and needs an email on the lead, and no native Pipedrive or Salesforce integration is listed.
- Fees are non-refundable per the terms.
HeyReach verdict by use case
| Use case | Our take |
|---|---|
| Agency running LinkedIn for several clients | Strong fit. Workspaces, seat pool, Master View and white label are built for this. Price in proxies on Agency. |
| Sales team with 10 or more reps on LinkedIn | Strong fit. $59 per sender, free users and a shared inbox. |
| Solo founder with one LinkedIn account | Weak fit. Rotation does nothing with one account. |
| Team that wants LinkedIn and email in one tool | Weak fit. Look at an email-first or all-in-one tool. |
| White label agency selling LinkedIn plus email | Possible fit, with a workaround. The native Instantly and Smartlead steps are not available under white label. |
| GTM engineer building automated workflows | Good fit. API, webhooks, MCP and a Clay action on every paid plan. |
| Anyone who cannot risk a restricted LinkedIn profile | Not a fit. This applies to every LinkedIn automation tool. |
How to get started with HeyReach
These are the steps HeyReach documents in its help center. We did not run them ourselves.
- Start the trial. Create a HeyReach trial account. HeyReach says it runs 14 days with 3 LinkedIn accounts and no card.
- Connect a LinkedIn account. HeyReach recommends the cookie method: export your LinkedIn cookies as JSON with the Cookie-Editor extension in Chrome and paste them into HeyReach. The alternative is a credentials login with a PIN from LinkedIn.
- Set inbox privacy and proxy. HeyReach recommends a proxy location that matches your real location.
- Configure limits. Under LinkedIn accounts, click "Configure limits" and set daily limits per action and working hours.
- Build a lead list. Import from a LinkedIn search, Sales Navigator or a CSV.
- Create the campaign. Pick the list and exclusion filters, then build the sequence or import a template.
- Select senders, set the schedule, preview and launch.
Two warnings from HeyReach's documentation: a cookie connection lasts only until you log out of LinkedIn on that computer, and new accounts should reach at least 100 connections manually before any automation.
How we compiled this review
We built this review from HeyReach's website, pricing page, blog, help center, Postman API docs and terms of service as of November 11, 2026. Competitor prices come from each vendor's own pricing page, and ratings come from G2, Capterra and Trustpilot on the same date.
We did not use HeyReach hands-on, and we did not measure acceptance, reply or restriction rates. Statements about LinkedIn's rules are paraphrases with links, and cost-per-sender figures are our arithmetic from published prices.
Rather not build the list yourself?
A LinkedIn tool is one piece. Choosing accounts, building and verifying the list, writing messages, managing sender profiles and answering replies is a weekly job before a single meeting is booked.
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. You can also read how the system fits together in our agency growth machine overview.
Verdict
HeyReach does one thing that most LinkedIn tools do not: it treats many LinkedIn accounts as one sending pool, with one campaign, one inbox and a price that drops per sender as you grow. For agencies and larger sales teams, that design, plus free users, workspaces, white label and an open API, is the reason to choose it.
It is not the best value for a single account, and it does not send email. The bundle plans need your own proxies, white label removes the native Instantly and Smartlead steps, and "Unlimited" stops at 300 senders.
The risk question does not go away. HeyReach itself says LinkedIn's User Agreement bans this kind of automation, and its terms leave the consequences with you. If you accept that and run 10 or more senders, HeyReach is worth a close look: try HeyReach free for 14 days, connect a few accounts at conservative limits, and judge it on your own numbers.

Frequently asked questions
Is HeyReach legit?
Yes, HeyReach is a real, actively developed product. Its terms of service name an Estonian entity as the provider, and HeyReach claims 8,000+ companies as customers. As of November 11, 2026, it held 4.6 out of 5 on G2 (74 reviews) and a 4.0 TrustScore on Trustpilot (51 reviews). It is not approved or endorsed by LinkedIn, and HeyReach says so on its own site.
How much does HeyReach cost?
As of November 2026, HeyReach's pricing page lists Growth at $79 per sender a month ($59 per sender from 10 senders), Agency at $999 a month for 25 senders or $1,399 for 50, and Unlimited at $2,999 a month, capped at 300 senders by a fair use policy. Quarterly billing takes 10% off and yearly billing takes 20% off.
Does HeyReach have a free trial?
Yes. HeyReach's pricing page describes a 14 day trial with 3 LinkedIn accounts and no credit card, and its help center says the trial does not convert to a paid plan automatically. For Agency and Unlimited, HeyReach says you can request a 30 day trial by form.
Does HeyReach send emails?
No. HeyReach automates LinkedIn only. Email runs through a connected tool such as Instantly, Smartlead or EmailBison, which means a second subscription. HeyReach's help center also says the Instantly and Smartlead integrations are not available to white label users.
Can HeyReach get your LinkedIn account restricted?
Yes, that risk exists with any LinkedIn automation tool. HeyReach's own August 2026 blog says LinkedIn's User Agreement bans software that automates connecting and messaging, and that outreach tools cannot be risk-free. HeyReach says its limits and dedicated proxies reduce the risk, and its terms place responsibility for third-party platform action on the customer.
What is a sender in HeyReach?
A sender is a LinkedIn account added to your HeyReach organization. HeyReach bills per sender or per sender bundle, and team members, VAs and client logins are free. One campaign can use many senders, and HeyReach rotates between them.
Does HeyReach offer white label?
Yes, on the Agency and Unlimited plans. HeyReach says you can use your own domain, branding, colors and sign-in page, and its team sets it up on request. Extra brands cost $500 per add-on on Unlimited, and white label accounts cannot use the Instantly or Smartlead integrations or buy email credits directly.
