Why these assessments
- Recruitment fitWeak
- Built for prospecting. The named destinations are HubSpot and Pipedrive, both sales CRMs, and no ATS appears in the integration list.
- Ease of useStrong
- From our own use the interface is cleaner than the older tools in this category and the sequences are quicker to set up, with templates and A/B testing that earn their place.
- ImplementationStrong
- From our own use the sequences are quick to set up: import the LinkedIn search you already run, choose a template and adjust it. It feels like configuration rather than an implementation project.
- Price transparencyWeak
- The monthly per-user prices are published, but the quarterly and yearly discounts are advertised as minus 20 and minus 50 percent without the resulting prices rendering, and the email-credit allowance per tier did not read the same way twice.
- Value for moneyUnknown
- The capability side we can judge from use; the cost side we cannot, because the discounted prices and the middle tier's email allowance would not render.
- ScalabilityFair
- Priced per user per month, so a team is a straight multiple, and the ceiling that binds is LinkedIn's tolerance rather than a plan limit.

The SourcrLab bottom line
One of the mainstream LinkedIn automation tools, priced per user per month and laddered by capability rather than volume. Pro at EUR 19 covers LinkedIn sequences with 300 invitations a month. Advanced at EUR 49 raises that to 800 and adds the API and the Make, Zapier and n8n modules. Business at EUR 69 is where cold email joins the sequence, which is the real reason to go up rather than the invitation count. Two cautions: the discounts on longer commitments are advertised as percentages without showing the price, and the vendor names Recruiter Lite rather than full LinkedIn Recruiter.
Best fit
A recruiter who already sources inside LinkedIn and wants the follow-up sequence to run itself. Import a LinkedIn search, build a sequence of visits, invitations and messages, and let it work through the list at a pace you set. From our own use the multichannel version, where the sequence steps out to email on the Business tier, is what actually lifts response rates.
Think twice if
Anyone who cannot afford to lose the LinkedIn account the whole desk runs on. Automating LinkedIn is against its terms whatever the tool promises, and the fact that a vendor supports Sales Navigator or Recruiter Lite is compatibility, not permission.
Hands-on experience
Pieter Henderyckx's take
Recruiter and founder of SourcrLab
Waalaxy is a cleaner, more modern take on LinkedIn automation compared to older tools like Dux-Soup. The interface is nicer, the sequences are easier to set up, and it feels less likely to get you in trouble, though let's be honest, it's still a grey zone. LinkedIn doesn't officially allow any of this. I've used it for outreach sequences combining LinkedIn messages with email follow-ups, and the multichannel approach does get better response rates. The templates and A/B testing features are genuinely useful. But my advice remains the same: keep volumes low, personalize everything, and don't treat it like a spam cannon. Used carefully, Waalaxy is one of the better options in this space.
Why choose Waalaxy?
The ladder is capability, not volume
Advanced and Business carry the same 800 LinkedIn invitations a month. What EUR 20 more buys on Business is cold email sequences and multichannel campaigns, so the upgrade question is whether you want email in the same sequence, not whether you need more invitations.
A 14-day trial on every tier
Long enough to run a real sequence to completion and see the reply rate on your own market, which is the only test that matters for outreach tooling. Nothing here is free afterwards.
It leaves through Make, Zapier and n8n
From the Advanced tier the API and those three modules open, which is how anything reaches a system Waalaxy does not integrate with directly. If your ATS is not HubSpot or Pipedrive, that route is the integration.
It reads the search you already run
The vendor names LinkedIn Search, Sales Navigator and Recruiter Lite as sources, plus CSV import and export. You keep sourcing where you source and hand the list over, rather than learning a second search syntax.
Main trade-offs
The account you automate is the account you need
LinkedIn's own help pages say it does not permit third-party software, including browser extensions, that scrapes or automates activity on its site, and that members using them risk having their accounts restricted or closed. Human-like timing is a mitigation, not an exemption. From our own use the working rule is to keep volumes low and personalise every step rather than run it as a spam cannon.
Recruiter Lite is not LinkedIn Recruiter
The vendor names Recruiter Lite. If your desk runs on a full Recruiter seat, do not read that as support for it; the two products have different search, different InMail allowances and different prices, and compatibility with one says nothing about the other.
The discounts are percentages without prices
Quarterly is advertised at minus 20 percent and yearly at minus 50, but the pricing page did not render what those come to. Ask for the yearly figure in writing before committing, because half off EUR 69 a seat is a different budget conversation than EUR 69.
The email allowance is not stated consistently
Pro is documented at 25 email-finder credits a month and Business at 500. What the Advanced tier carries read differently on two passes of the same page, so treat it as a question for sales rather than a published number.
There is no free tier to fall back to
The pricing page sells three paid plans and a trial. Our own record said there was a free plan; there is not one on the page we checked, so a desk that stops paying stops sequencing.
Pricing and buying reality

- A 14-day free trial is offered on all three plans

What we do not know

- The email-finder allowance on the Advanced tier
- Whether campaigns keep running when the browser is closed
- Daily activity limits, and what the tool does when LinkedIn throttles an account
- Where data is hosted and which transfer safeguards apply

How it fits your stack
Works with
- LinkedIn Search, Sales Navigator and Recruiter Lite, as sources
- HubSpot and Pipedrive directly; anything else through Make, Zapier or n8n
- CSV, in and out
Likely replaces
- Sending connection requests and follow-ups by hand
- A separate cold-email tool, on the Business tier
May overlap with
- Dux-Soup and Dripify, which automate the same LinkedIn actions
- The sequencing already inside your ATS or sourcing platform
Check before buying
- Whether you can afford to lose the LinkedIn account this will operate
- Whether you need email in the same sequence, since that is the Business tier
- The written price for the commitment you intend to sign
- Whether your seat is Recruiter Lite or full Recruiter
Waalaxy vs alternatives
Products a buyer would genuinely put next to this one, with the reason you would pick each instead.
Choose Dux-Soup when the entry price matters most: it starts far lower for the same grey-zone job, with an older interface and sequences that take longer to set up.
Choose Dripify if you want cloud execution as the default and can live with per-seat pricing that starts higher.
Stay inside LinkedIn Recruiter if account safety outweighs volume: it is the expensive answer that carries no platform risk.
