Best for signal-based LinkedIn outreach
Valley is an outbound platform that finds prospects from buyer signals and writes LinkedIn and email messages. Starter is LinkedIn only, email starts at $249 a seat, and a banner and the plan cards disagree about what Starter costs.
Who Valley is for
- Fits if you sell through LinkedIn first and email second
- Works for a team that wants buyer signals feeding the messages
Who Valley is not for
- Pricey if you add email, because Starter at $149 is LinkedIn only and Plus is $249 a seat
- Skip it if you will not hand over a payment method, since the 7-day trial needs one
- Watch out: a banner says Starter returns to $395 a seat from 9 November, yet the plan cards still showed $199 on 13 November
- Tight if you want credits, because prospect discovery and enrichment spend them and the credit price is not shown
- Not for you if you want a managed service, as the $1,499 a month Done-For-You plan had a waitlist
Why Valley gets a 1.8
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- DValue for money$149 a seat a month on quarterly billing for LinkedIn only, $249 once email is added. The category's dearest tenth starts at $120.
- DFree plan and trialA 7-day trial that asks for a payment method. No free plan.
- CFeaturesBuyer signals, research, LinkedIn and email sequences and a shared inbox. Email sending is an add-on on Starter, and credits for finding and verifying prospects cost extra.
- CEase of useNo store rating on record. You connect LinkedIn, email and a CRM, and credits need managing.
- BPlatforms and integrationsWeb only, with HubSpot, Claude, Gmail, Microsoft 365 and Slack plus an API and MCP.

Keep Valley, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Valley you would be making an AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 53 of the 81 other cold outreach tools grade higher. It costs $1,788 a year.
What you could make
- Reports: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- An AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it.
- One mailbox that several people work at once.
- It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
- It plugs into other products, HubSpot, Claude and Gmail among them, and has an API.
What this rests on. Valley’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.
What is Valley?
Valley is an outbound platform that finds prospects from buying signals such as hiring, job changes, funding and LinkedIn post engagement, researches them, writes personalized messages in your voice and sends them on LinkedIn and, on higher plans, email. Drafts can be reviewed before they go out, and replies land in a unified inbox. Plans are priced per seat.
Worth knowing
- A banner on the pricing page says the $199 Starter price runs until 8 Nov and returns to $395 a seat from 9 Nov, yet the plan cards still showed $199 on 13 Nov.
- Credits pay for finding prospects, verifying emails and upgraded message writing; the credit price is not shown.
- Email sending is an optional add-on on Starter; Plus and Growth include 1,000 email messages a month.
- Valley Done-For-You, a managed service at $1,499 a month, was not accepting new users and had a waitlist.
