The 4 differences that matter.
Difference 1
AI answers interested leads, built into the inbox.
Put AI on autopilot and it answers interested leads for you, or keep drafts so every reply has an answer waiting to approve and send in a click. Test it in the simulator before it goes live. HeyReach sorts replies by sentiment in the app; drafting or answering them takes an outside AI connected over MCP.

Difference 2
Email, Instagram and WhatsApp are built in, not bolted on.
Connect Gmail, Outlook or any IMAP mailbox, an Instagram account or a WhatsApp number, and it runs in the same sequence as your LinkedIn steps. HeyReach sends email through Instantly, Smartlead or EmailBison, so LinkedIn and email live in two tools.
- One sequence: invite, message, then an email if they haven’t accepted.
- One inbox: every LinkedIn, email, Instagram and WhatsApp reply, with the sender, sequence and step it came from.
- One bill: mailboxes are priced like any other sender, with no separate email tool to pay for.
Difference 3
A reply on any channel stops every sender.
When someone answers an email, their LinkedIn steps stop too, on every account and in every sequence, and anything queued is cancelled. Out-of-office replies pause and resume on their own.
How the reply stop works
Difference 4
Branching that follows what people do.
Steps for LinkedIn, email, Instagram and WhatsApp and 25+ branch conditions, plus A/B splits with a results report that picks the winner on positive replies. HeyReach’s branching is built around whether an invite was accepted, and stops there.

Themes that come up again and again in public reviews of HeyReach, paraphrased. These are not our customers, and we don’t quote them. Read the reviews yourself below.
What users like
- Running many LinkedIn accounts from one dashboard, with volume spread across them. This is the most praised feature.
- The unified inbox: replies from every account in one place, without logging in and out.
- A clean, simple interface and a quick setup.
- Flat top-tier plans that get cheaper per account as an agency adds senders.
Common complaints
- Slower support in recent negative reviews than in older ones.
- Campaigns that stall or won’t start, and LinkedIn sessions that need reconnecting.
- LinkedIn only: email needs a separate tool such as Smartlead.
- $79 per sender feels expensive for one to three accounts.
- Accounts restricted despite the safeguards. Every tool in this category, ours included, carries some of this risk.
- Basic reporting; the AI connector’s numbers can differ from the dashboard.
Switching from HeyReach.
Most of what you run in HeyReach moves across as it is. The email steps you ran in a second tool join the same sequence. The plan: a 30-minute call on day 0, your workspace ready on day 1, and your first sequence live on day 2.
- Export your leads as CSV; custom fields map on import and tags are applied as they come in.
- We rebuild your sequences from an export or screenshots, and add the email steps you were running in Instantly or Smartlead.
- You don’t need your proxies: each sender gets its own, in the owner’s country.
- Each owner reconnects their LinkedIn account through a hosted login link. You never handle their password.
Your mailboxes carry the volume while moved LinkedIn accounts ramp up.
Every LinkedIn account you move starts again at warm-up level 0: 4 invites a day. It goes up one level after each 14 healthy days in a row, so an established Premium account takes about 10 weeks to reach full volume (45 invites a day). We ramp every moved account back up gradually, because a sudden jump in activity from a new tool is what LinkedIn watches for. Mailboxes start higher, at level 3.
Questions about switching from HeyReach.
Do I still need Smartlead or Instantly?
No. Gmail, Outlook and any IMAP mailbox connect directly and run in the same sequence and inbox as your LinkedIn steps.
Do I need my own proxies?
No. Each LinkedIn account gets its own proxy in the owner’s country, included in the price.
Do you charge per user?
No. You pay per account you send from. Teammates and client viewers are free.
Is HeyReach cheaper for a very large agency?
It can be. HeyReach Unlimited is a flat $2,999 a month for up to 300 senders. Above 100 senders, talk to us and we’ll give you a price.
Will my LinkedIn accounts keep their current volume when I switch?
Not straight away. Every moved LinkedIn account restarts at warm-up level 0 (4 invites a day) and climbs one level per 14 healthy days, reaching full volume in about 10 weeks. It is a safety feature: a sudden jump in activity from a new tool is what gets accounts restricted.
How do you keep my LinkedIn accounts safe?
No tool can promise an account will never be restricted, and you should distrust any that does. New accounts start at 4 invites a day and build up gradually, each day’s cap is the lowest of the platform ceiling, the warm-up level and your own cap, and every account sends only in its working hours and slows down on its own if its health drops.
Keep every account sending, week after week.
Each account ramps up at a human pace, sends only in your working hours and slows down on its own if anything looks off.
How we keep accounts healthyComparing other tools too?
Honest, dated comparisons, and help moving your campaigns.
