The report card
Best for LinkedIn outreach software for your PC
Linked Helper is desktop software for LinkedIn outreach: invitations, messages, profile visits and lead collection, with a small CRM. It's $15 a license a month on the one-month price, and cheaper by term. Your computer or a VPS has to stay on, and Standard caps several actions at 20 a day.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | B | $15 a license a month at the one-month price, $8.25 at 12 months. That's inside the cheapest quarter ($25), though Pro, which lifts the daily caps, is $45. |
| Free plan and trial | C | 14-day free trial with all features and no card. No free plan. |
| Features | C | Invites, messages, visits, lead collection, a small CRM and webhooks, LinkedIn only. Standard caps several actions at 20 a day, and cloud storage costs extra. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating on record. Desktop software to install, with a VPS or your PC kept running and LinkedIn limits to manage. |
| Platforms and integrations | C | Windows, Mac and Linux desktop app, and a program for computers alone. Connectors to HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive and Zapier, but no phone or web 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 Linked Helper is for
- Fits if you want LinkedIn outreach on your own machine for a low price
- Works for people comfortable running software on a PC or VPS
Who it is not for
- Skip it if you want email or phone outreach, as it's LinkedIn only
- Not for you if your computer can't stay on while campaigns run
- Tight if you stay on Standard, which caps several actions at 20 a day
- Watch out: team sharing and incoming webhooks need Cloud storage, from $16.50 a month
Good to know
Good for
- Users who prefer desktop software over a browser extension
- Agencies managing several LinkedIn accounts in separate workspaces
- Recruiters collecting candidates from Recruiter projects and searches
Worth knowing
- It is desktop software, and the computer or VPS must be on and running the app for campaigns to run.
- Local storage keeps data on one device; Cloud storage costs more (from $16.50 a month at the 12-month term) and enables team sharing and incoming webhooks.
- Standard caps several actions at 20 a day; Pro lifts those caps, though LinkedIn can still impose its own limits.
- The price is per license, and discounts apply by term and by number of licenses bought together.

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.
Keep it
To replace Linked Helper you would be making email sent in volume that still reaches the inbox. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It costs $180 a year.
What you could make
- Sales pipeline and templates: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Email sent in volume that still reaches the inbox.
- Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
- Apps for macOS, Windows and Linux that stay in step with each other.
- It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. Linked Helper’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.
