HeyReagent / Expandi alternative
Expandi and HeyReagent: two different jobs
Expandi automates campaigns: you build a sequence, load the people, and it runs at volume. HeyReagent is a different kind of thing. It is one agent on your own LinkedIn that reads each conversation, writes the next message for that person, and asks you before it sends. It costs more, and it does a different job.
Side by side
| Expandi | HeyReagent | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | A LinkedIn automation tool: campaigns built in a sequence builder. | One agent on your own LinkedIn. It reads each conversation and writes the next message for that person. |
| What you set up | Campaigns, sequences and templates. Its plan lists unlimited campaigns and templates. | How many qualified meetings you want a week, and what a qualified meeting is. No campaigns. |
| How many people | Its pricing page speaks of 300 or more connection requests a week. | At most five new people a day, and none until you have said what a qualified meeting is. |
| Before it sends | Its pricing page does not say. | It drafts; you send, edit or skip. You can let it send on its own later. |
| How it connects | Its plan lists a dedicated IP address and automatic warm-up. | Daily limits on every kind of action for each account. The numbers are public. |
| Price | Business $99 a month ($79 billed yearly). Agency: custom, from ten seats. | Agent $499 a month. The API and MCP address alone: free, or $29.99 a month kept connected. |
| Where you work | Its own app. Its pricing page also mentions an Expandi MCP. | One conversation, and your own Claude, ChatGPT or n8n through the MCP address. |

When Expandi is the better choice
- You want many connection requests a week from campaigns you design.
- You run outreach for several accounts or clients and want one place to manage them.
- Price matters most.
When HeyReagent is
- Replies and half-finished conversations are where you lose deals, more than a lack of new people.
- You would rather approve a draft written for one person than build and tune campaigns.
- You want it to learn how you write, from your own messages and from every edit you make.
What is the same for both
Both act on your own LinkedIn account, and LinkedIn's User Agreement does not allow automated activity. LinkedIn can limit or restrict an account, whichever tool you use. HeyReagent puts a daily limit on every kind of action for each account; the numbers are public.
Questions
Is HeyReagent cheaper than Expandi?
No. The Agent plan is $499 a month, and Expandi’s Business plan was $99 a month when we read its pricing page on 5 October 2026. They do different jobs: Expandi runs campaigns at volume, and the agent reads each conversation and drafts the next message.
Does HeyReagent send hundreds of connection requests a week?
Not the agent. On its own it reaches out to at most five new people a day. If you want to drive volume yourself, the API has a daily limit of 80 invitations for each account.
Can I bring my Expandi campaigns over?
No. There is nothing to import, because HeyReagent has no campaigns. You connect LinkedIn, it reads how you write, and it starts from your inbox.
Is there a free way to try it?
The free plan covers the API and the MCP address, which you drive yourself. The Agent plan is the one that runs LinkedIn for you.
Rather have it done for you?
The Agent plan answers your inbox in your voice, follows up, and finds who to talk to today. You approve what it sends.
