Find the right people at any company, draft a personal note to each one with AI, then review and send the ones you approve — all from a panel docked beside your feed.
You stay at the wheel. Your API key, your browser, your account — nothing routed through our servers.
LinkedIn on the left, the Outreach Assistant panel on the right. You stay in control at every step.
The cold-outreach market is full of cloud services that log into your account from their own servers and blast spun-text templates. Here's what changes that.
Everything happens in a panel inside your own browser, signed in as you. Your LinkedIn session never gets shipped to someone else's server, so your account keeps behaving like a normal person using the site.
Connect Claude or Grok with your own API key. Each message is generated for one specific person from their role and company — not a template with a few synonyms swapped in.
It uses LinkedIn's own invitation flow, so it keeps working after interface updates that break older scripts the moment the DOM changes.
When LinkedIn requires someone's email to connect, the tool recognizes it and skips cleanly, instead of firing a broken request or hitting the wrong profile in the sidebar.
You operate it. Review and edit every message before anything sends, decide who makes the cut, and watch a live log of what happened — with human-paced gaps between each request.
No monthly SaaS bill. You bring your own AI key and pay only for the tokens you actually use — usually cents per batch, not tens of dollars a month.
Type a company name. The panel pulls everyone who matches straight from LinkedIn search, across pages, and removes duplicates as it goes.
Generate a personal note for each contact with your chosen model. Scan them, tweak any one inline, and keep the ones you like.
Fire the connection requests with the note attached, spaced out like a human would. Watch a live log of sent, skipped, and failed.
You install it once, add your own AI key, and you're the one driving from there.
Install from the private Chrome Web Store link, or load the folder in Developer mode if you'd rather run it unpacked. It lives as a side panel next to LinkedIn.
Open settings and paste an Anthropic (Claude) or xAI (Grok) API key. It's saved locally in your browser and used only to draft your notes — it never leaves your machine except to call that provider.
Type a company name. The panel pulls everyone who matches from LinkedIn search and lists them for you, duplicates removed.
Generate a personal message for each contact with your chosen model. Read them, edit any that need a tweak, and keep the ones you like.
Send the connection requests you approved, with the note attached and human-paced gaps between each. A live log shows what sent, what was skipped, and why.
How it stacks up against the Dux-Soup / Waalaxy / Expandi style of automation.
| Outreach Assistant | Typical cloud tools | |
|---|---|---|
| Where it runs | In your browser, as you | On their servers, logged in as you |
| Your LinkedIn login | Never leaves your device | Stored on a third party's server |
| Messages | AI-written per person | Templates with spin syntax |
| Survives LinkedIn UI updates | Uses the native invite flow | Often breaks until they patch |
| Email-gated profiles | Detected and skipped | Misfires and wastes invites |
| Pricing | Free; your own API usage | $40–$99 / month |
Cloud automation services work by holding your LinkedIn credentials and acting from a datacenter IP that looks nothing like you — one of the fastest ways to get flagged. Outreach Assistant never asks for your password and never leaves your machine. The only outbound calls it makes are to the AI provider you chose, with the key you supplied.
Plain-English version of the privacy policy. The short answer: it runs on your machine, and the only thing it sends anywhere is the text it needs to draft a note, to the AI provider you chose.
Only the LinkedIn pages you open while using it — names, titles, and companies from the search results and profiles you're looking at. It reads nothing when you're not actively using it.
Your contacts, drafted notes, settings, and API key stay in your browser's local storage on your own device. There is no account to create and no server that holds your data.
One kind of request only: the contact details and your prompt go to the AI provider you picked (Anthropic or xAI), authenticated with your own key, to draft each note. Nothing is sent to us.
It never asks for or stores your LinkedIn password, never routes your session through a third party, never sells or shares your data, and includes no analytics or tracking.
Add the extension, drop in your API key, and send your first batch in a few minutes.
Install link coming soon. Bring your own Anthropic or xAI key to run it live.
