Why This Matters for Operators¶

Outbound LinkedIn is where most B2B pipeline starts, and the failure point is almost never the list - it is the sustained follow-up. HeyLead runs the whole motion from one OAuth sign-in: it builds two to four buyer personas from a single sentence, previews the LinkedIn search before anything exists, then drafts a warm-up, invitation note, opening message, follow-ups and an InMail or email fallback for each specific person.

Every opening message and follow-up waits for approval until you switch a campaign to autopilot, so nothing goes out that you have not seen. Replies are read and answered from the campaign's facts, and anything ambiguous is held for you. Sends go out from your own LinkedIn account at a human pace - at most 20 invitations a day and 100 a week on a free account, Monday to Friday 08:00 to 22:00 in your time zone - which is exactly the cadence that keeps accounts healthy.

Business Relevance¶

Founders doing their own outbound replace manual drip sequences with an assistant that writes and sends in their voice
SDRs and recruiters run multiple campaigns with per-person messaging instead of templated blasts
Agencies manage outreach across client accounts with approval gates on every send
Job seekers and fundraisers use the hire, investor and partner campaign goals without learning a new tool

Integration with CorpusIQ¶

HeyLead covers the outbound motion while CorpusIQ covers the business-data layer. An assistant can qualify a lead against live Stripe revenue, QuickBooks invoices or CRM deals through CorpusIQ connectors, then hand the approved shortlist to HeyLead for personalized outreach - and every send stays inside the human-pace limits that keep the account safe.

Limitations¶

Brand new listing, no track record yet
Sends through Unipile's LinkedIn connection layer, which LinkedIn does not affiliate with
Free tier is one seat; each additional connected LinkedIn account is a Pro seat
No public tool catalog beyond the vendor's docs pages

FAQ¶

Does it send from my own LinkedIn account?¶

Yes. Campaigns send from your own connected LinkedIn account through Unipile, at human-pace limits (at most 20 invitations a day and 100 a week on a free account, Monday to Friday 08:00 to 22:00 local time).

Can messages go out without my approval?¶

Opening messages and follow-ups wait for your approval until you explicitly switch a campaign to autopilot. Replies are answered from campaign facts, and ambiguous threads are held for you.

What does it cost?¶

Free at $0 for one LinkedIn seat with cloud sending included. Pro is $29 per connected LinkedIn account per month.
