HeyReach vs Dripify: pricing, features, and verdict for 2026
HeyReach and Dripify both automate LinkedIn outreach, but they're built for different teams. Here's which one earns its seat fee in 2026.
Dripify charges $39/month for a solo rep. HeyReach is a multi-account LinkedIn automation platform, but its $79/seat pricing, agency-centric interface, and shallow native CRM support make it costly and complex for most individual SDRs. The strongest LinkedIn automation tools in 2026 are HeyReach for agencies running multi-sender campaigns, Dripify for solo reps who want affordable drip sequences, and Expandi for teams where LinkedIn account safety is non-negotiable.

- Cheapest option: Dripify Basic at $39/month

How They Compare at a Glance
HeyReach and Dripify both automate LinkedIn outreach sequences, but they're built for different operators. HeyReach runs campaigns across multiple LinkedIn sender accounts simultaneously. Dripify is a single-account tool with a cleaner interface and lower starting price. Neither replaces a CRM.
| Tool | Starting Price | Best For | Standout Feature |
|---|---|---|---|
| HeyReach | $79/mo per seat | Agencies, multi-account teams | Runs outreach from 10+ LinkedIn accounts at once, per HeyReach's feature page |
| Dripify | $39/mo (Basic) | Solo SDRs, small teams | Visual drip builder with A/B testing on connection sequences, per Dripify's pricing page |
| Expandi | $99/mo | Safety-conscious teams | Smart randomized sending patterns designed to reduce LinkedIn ban risk |
| Salesflow | $99/mo | Enterprise sales teams | Native Salesforce and HubSpot sync for LinkedIn activity logging |
| Lemlist | $59/mo | Email + LinkedIn teams | Personalized image and video inserts across email and LinkedIn steps |
| Phantombuster | $56/mo | Technical growth teams | API-based scraping and automation across LinkedIn, X, and more |
What You're Actually Paying For
HeyReach's pitch is volume without multiplying risk. You connect multiple LinkedIn accounts, run separate campaigns from each, and manage replies through one shared inbox. Dripify's pitch is simplicity: one account, one visual campaign builder, one flat monthly fee with no hidden setup costs.
HeyReach's agency plan runs $399/month for unlimited LinkedIn accounts, per HeyReach's pricing page. That works out to $39.90 per account at 10 senders. At that scale, it undercuts Dripify's $79/month Advanced tier per seat. But if you're running two or fewer LinkedIn accounts, HeyReach costs more at every tier.
Dripify doesn't offer multi-account management at all. It's built for a single LinkedIn profile. Five SDRs on Dripify Pro costs $295/month. HeyReach's flat agency plan covers all five for $399/month and adds centralized campaign reporting.
The crossover point is three to four active LinkedIn accounts. Under that threshold, Dripify is the cheaper call every time.
Sequences, Inbox, and Safety
Dripify builds campaigns as visual flowcharts. You drag connection requests, follow-ups, profile visits, and endorsements into a sequence, set delays, and publish. It's the most intuitive LinkedIn automation builder at this price point, and it supports A/B testing on message copy natively, per Dripify's feature documentation.
HeyReach's sequence builder is less visual but more capable for multi-sender setups. You define one campaign, assign multiple LinkedIn accounts as senders, and HeyReach distributes the outreach load across them automatically. That's the feature Dripify can't replicate.
On safety, both tools throttle sends to stay inside LinkedIn's daily limits. HeyReach's defaults are set lower, which makes sense when one banned account can knock out a shared campaign. Dripify lets you push closer to LinkedIn's ceiling. That's fine for a single account and a real risk at volume.
Neither tool includes an email step. If your strategy mixes cold email with LinkedIn, you'll need a separate platform for that layer. Modern Inbound runs unified outreach campaigns that combine LinkedIn and cold email as a single coordinated sequence.
Pricing by Team Size
Three scenarios cover most team decisions. Solo SDRs save money on Dripify. Agencies save money on HeyReach at volume. Mid-size teams land at roughly the same cost either way, so the decision comes down to which interface fits the team's workflow.
Scenario 1: Solo rep, one LinkedIn account. Dripify Pro at $59/month handles all standard prospecting needs. HeyReach at $79/month adds multi-account features you won't use.
Scenario 2: Agency with 8 LinkedIn sender accounts. Eight Dripify Pro seats cost $472/month. HeyReach's agency plan covers all 8 for $399/month, per HeyReach's pricing page. That's a $73/month saving with better campaign controls included.
Scenario 3: Small team, 3 LinkedIn accounts. Three Dripify Pro seats run $177/month. Three HeyReach seats run $237/month. At three accounts, Dripify still wins on price by $60/month.
Who Should Use HeyReach vs Dripify
The right choice isn't about which tool has more features. It's about which cost structure matches how you actually prospect. HeyReach is overkill for individual reps. Dripify is impossible to scale across an agency's full sender roster.
Choose HeyReach if: you're running outreach from four or more LinkedIn accounts, you want centralized inbox management across all senders, or you're billing LinkedIn outreach to clients and need campaign separation by account.
Choose Dripify if: you're a solo SDR or small team with one to three LinkedIn accounts, you want a visual campaign builder with a short learning curve, or you're testing LinkedIn automation before committing to agency-tier pricing.
One common mistake: early-stage founders buy HeyReach because it looks more capable. Don't. Dripify's Pro plan covers everything you need until you're running outreach across multiple clients or team members at once. If you've reached that point and want done-for-you outreach, Modern Inbound handles campaigns end-to-end.
Scale Outreach Without Hiring SDRs
Most B2B teams underestimate the work before sending: buyer-language research, list logic, DNS, warm-up, deliverability, copy testing, and reply handling. Modern Inbound runs the operating layer so founders can stay focused on sales calls.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is HeyReach better than Dripify?
HeyReach is better for agencies running outreach from multiple LinkedIn accounts. Dripify is better for solo SDRs and small teams who want simpler, cheaper automation. The best tool depends entirely on how many LinkedIn accounts you're running.
What's the cheapest LinkedIn automation tool in 2026?
Dripify starts at $39/month, making it one of the lowest entry prices for a full-featured LinkedIn automation tool. HeyReach's agency plan at $399/month becomes cheaper per account than Dripify at 10 or more senders, per HeyReach's pricing page.
Can I use HeyReach and Dripify on the same LinkedIn account?
There's no practical reason to run both on the same LinkedIn account. It doubles your automation footprint and increases the risk of LinkedIn restricting that profile.
Which LinkedIn automation tool is safer for account health?
HeyReach enforces lower default daily limits, which reduces ban risk when running multiple accounts. Dripify lets users push closer to LinkedIn's limits, which is riskier at volume. Expandi is the category leader for account safety features.
