The short answer

  • HeyReach : HeyReach runs LinkedIn campaigns across many sender accounts from its own app, from $64/sender/mo, suited to volume outreach rather than CRM-triggered touches. From $64/sender/mo
  • Aimfox : Aimfox automates LinkedIn connection and message campaigns with AI personalization, from $49/seat/mo, cheaper per seat but without HubSpot workflow actions. From $49/seat/mo
  • Traxy : Traxy qualifies LinkedIn post engagers against your ICP and routes them to your stack, from $149/mo, covering the engager signal without sending the outreach itself. From $149/mo

Why people look past FirstTouch

It is built around HubSpot: the workflow cards need a HubSpot Pro hub, and there is no Salesforce or ATS sync. Enrichment, discovery and engagement signals draw on a credit pool (a phone lookup costs 7 credits), and there is no cheaper single-user tier for a solo recruiter.

What we noted

  • Built around HubSpot, no Salesforce sync
  • Workflow cards need a HubSpot Pro hub
  • Data lookups draw down a credit pool

Not the right fit for

  • Teams on Salesforce or an ATS without HubSpot
  • Solo users after a low-cost LinkedIn automation tool
  • High-volume multi-account campaigns with no approvals

Worth keeping in mind: Most LinkedIn tools run their own campaigns in their own app; FirstTouch makes LinkedIn a step in your CRM, so every touch is attributed in HubSpot like email. Sends route by CRM ownership, approvals are on by default, and a first-party MCP server exposes 44 tools to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Gemini and Grok on every plan.

What each one does differently

HeyReach

$64/sender/mo Free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: HeyReach runs LinkedIn campaigns across many sender accounts from its own app, from $64/sender/mo, suited to volume outreach rather than CRM-triggered touches.

Stands out: Agency and Unlimited plans cover 25-plus or unlimited LinkedIn senders for one flat monthly fee.

Watch out: Growth is priced per sender. The next plan, Agency, starts at $999/mo for 25 senders, so there is a big jump between tiers.

Best for

  • Agencies running many LinkedIn accounts
  • Sales teams using Clay or n8n workflows
  • Teams driving outreach from Claude via MCP

Aimfox

$49/seat/mo Free trial

Why it comes up: Aimfox automates LinkedIn connection and message campaigns with AI personalization, from $49/seat/mo, cheaper per seat but without HubSpot workflow actions.

Stands out: One Unibox across connected and rented profiles, plus Outreach Avatars (rented LinkedIn profiles) from $387/profile/mo with a replacement guarantee.

Watch out: An Outreach Seat is capped at 200 connection requests and 200 message requests per week. Scaling volume means more seats, not a higher feature tier. LinkedIn-only. No email sequencer.

Best for

  • Agencies running multi-account LinkedIn campaigns from one Unibox
  • SDRs who want cloud LinkedIn sequences without a Chrome-only tool
  • Teams that need rented Outreach Avatar profiles instead of employee accounts

4.7 on Capterra from 21 reviews

Traxy

$149/mo 7 day free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: Traxy qualifies LinkedIn post engagers against your ICP and routes them to your stack, from $149/mo, covering the engager signal without sending the outreach itself.

Stands out: Lead discovery, research and outreach live in one place, and every lead carries the LinkedIn post or signal that qualified it, so the first message has a real reason to exist.

Watch out: Pro only finds and routes leads; the LinkedIn and email campaigns start on the $399 Advanced plan, and sending on LinkedIn means connecting your own LinkedIn account.

Best for

  • B2B teams that want LinkedIn sourcing and outreach in one tool
  • Founders and sellers who post on LinkedIn and never follow up on the engagement
  • Agencies running signal based outbound for several clients
