The short answer

Expandi : Cloud LinkedIn automation with a published per-seat price. From $99/mo
Dripify : LinkedIn sequences at a lower per-user rate. From $59/mo
Waalaxy : Browser LinkedIn plus email if you want a cheaper starter. From $16/user/mo
HeyReach : Multi-account LinkedIn sending for agencies on a different plan. From $79/sender/mo

Why people look past Skylead

Published plans are agency packs. White label is a sales conversation. Annual billing is pay 10 months and get 2 free.

What we noted

Agency packs, not a cheap solo seat
White label is sales-quoted
Finder credit counts stay unlisted

Not the right fit for

Solo users who only wanted a $100 single seat
Teams that refuse any LinkedIn automation risk

Worth keeping in mind: Cloud LinkedIn automation plus unlimited email accounts, image and GIF personalization, and a public API.

What each one does differently

Expandi

$99/mo Free trial

Why it comes up: Cloud LinkedIn automation with a published per-seat price.

Stands out: Cloud LinkedIn (not Chrome) with a 7-day trial: the grown-up Waalaxy alternative agencies actually demo.

Watch out: $99 monthly is the headline; annual is $79. More accounts cost more. LinkedIn will still cap you.

Best for

Agencies running multi-account LinkedIn outbound
Teams that refuse a Chrome bot
Buyers who want a 7-day trial

Dripify

$59/mo Free trial

Why it comes up: LinkedIn sequences at a lower per-user rate.

Stands out: Cloud (not Chrome) LinkedIn plus email campaigns with a public $39 annual Basic and a 7-day no-card trial.

Watch out: Monthly Basic is $59. Extra credits for email/enrichment are $29+ packs. LinkedIn will still restrict aggressive senders.

Best for

SDRs who want cloud LinkedIn automation
Teams comparing Waalaxy and Expandi
Buyers who will pay annually to hit $39

Waalaxy

$16/user/mo Free trial

Why it comes up: Browser LinkedIn plus email if you want a cheaper starter.

Stands out: A public $16 Chrome LinkedIn seat with email (HubSpot, Pipedrive, Zapier, Make, n8n, Salesforce named), and one of the cheapest entry seats in the category.

Watch out: Pro is $16, Advanced $32, Business $55. Only Business carries cold email sequences and 500 finder credits; Pro and Advanced get 25 a month, which makes them LinkedIn-only in practice. The LinkedIn Inbox is a paid add-on on every plan, and LinkedIn automation remains a ToS risk.

Best for

SDRs running LinkedIn plus email from Chrome
HubSpot or Pipedrive shops
Teams that want a 14-day trial

HeyReach

$79/sender/mo Free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: Multi-account LinkedIn sending for agencies on a different plan.

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
