Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.0
GPA, above 1 of the 20 other cold outreach tools we grade
Expandi automates LinkedIn outreach from the cloud: connection requests, messages, InMails and event invites run in sequences that branch on what each prospect does, with email follow-ups in the same flow. Each account sends from a dedicated IP address in its own country and warms up gradually within set limits. There is a single per-seat Business plan, with agencies and larger teams quoted by sales.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Expandi, taken from its own pages and our grades.

The report card
Best for careful LinkedIn outreach run from the cloud
Expandi runs LinkedIn outreach from the cloud, from its own IP address in your country, and warms new accounts up slowly to keep them out of trouble. Its if-then sequences cover requests, messages, InMails and event invites, with email follow-ups. Full cold email campaigns need Smartlead alongside it, and there's one plan, at $79 a seat.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | D | One plan, per seat: five people pay $79 each billed annually, $79 a head, or $99 billed monthly. That's in this category's dearest tenth, which starts at $69, and image personalization and video cost extra on top. |
| Free plan and trial | C | No free plan. The 7-day trial unlocks every feature, which is a short window for judging LinkedIn results. |
| Features | C | Strong on LinkedIn: if-then sequences of requests, messages, InMails and event invites, with team workspaces and CRM sync. The gap is email: it only sends follow-ups, and full cold email campaigns run through the Smartlead integration. |
| Ease of use | C | No App Store rating on record. It runs in the cloud with a dedicated IP, so there's no browser to leave open, but you'll set limits, warm-up and campaign types before it sends. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web only, with HubSpot, Salesforce and Pipedrive sync, Smartlead, Hyperise, Sendspark, Zapier, Google Sheets, webhooks, an API and an MCP server in beta. No phone or desktop app. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who Expandi is for
- Great if you worry about LinkedIn restricting your account
- Handy when your outreach is mostly LinkedIn and gets logged to a CRM
- Good for agencies, who get roles, client reports and white labeling through sales
Who it is not for
- Pricey if you're a team of five, at $79 a seat a month billed annually
- Skip it if you want full cold email campaigns in the same tool
- Tight if you're trying it out, as the trial lasts only 7 days
Good to know
Good for
- Sales teams that prospect mainly through LinkedIn
- Agencies running LinkedIn outreach for several clients
- Users worried about LinkedIn restrictions on their accounts
Worth knowing

- Email in sequences is limited to follow-ups; full cold email campaigns are coordinated through the Smartlead integration.
- Image and GIF personalization costs extra, and video messages need a paid Sendspark add-on.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
You could make this
What Expandi does at its core is templates, and that is the kind of thing an AI app builder makes well.
You would give up 2 things, listed below, and little else. It costs $948 a year. An AI app builder starts at about $19 a month on our listings, and you only need it while you build.
What you could make
- Templates: an app builder makes this well.
- It runs in a browser, which is where something home-made would run too.
What you could not
- It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
- It plugs into other products, HubSpot, Salesforce and Pipedrive among them, and has an API.
What this rests on. Expandi’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
