Which plan fits?
- Starter if you only prospect on LinkedIn and send fewer than 300 invites a month.
- Pro if you want email follow-ups, AI help with replies, and your CRM in sync.
- Agency if you run outreach for clients or for more than one person. Read more on our agencies page.
What the 7-day trial includes
The trial is the full Pro plan for seven days. No card, no sales call. Connect one LinkedIn account and one mailbox, import leads from a search, post URL or CSV, and run AI-written LinkedIn and email sequences with the AI inbox and email finder credits.
Safety limits apply from day one. A new LinkedIn account warms up at 10, then 15 invites a day, so a seven-day trial won't send hundreds of invites. At the end, pick a plan or let it lapse. Nothing is charged because we never asked for a card.
Best free LinkedIn automation tools in 2026
Truly free LinkedIn automation is rare. Most of the best free LinkedIn automation tools are paid products with a free trial or a small free plan. Here's what each vendor listed on its own site when we checked.
| Tool | Free option | Paid plans from | How it runs |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hollerly | 7-day trial of Pro, no card | $19/mo | Cloud |
| Waalaxy | 14-day free trial on all plans; no permanent free plan listed | €19/user/mo (300 invitations a month) | Not checked |
| Octopus CRM | 7-day trial, no card | $9.99/mo | Chrome extension |
| Linked Helper | 14-day Pro trial, no card | See its pricing page | Desktop software |
| PhantomBuster | Pricing page didn't load for us | See its pricing page | Not checked |
Waalaxy LinkedIn automation free plan
On October 2, 2026, its pricing page listed a 14-day free trial on all plans, and paid plans at €19 (Pro), €49 (Advanced) and €69 (Business) per user a month. We didn't see a permanent free plan for campaigns. Cold email sequences sit on the €69 Business plan. Compare in detail on our Waalaxy alternative page.
Octopus CRM LinkedIn automation free trial
Octopus CRM is a Chrome extension with plans from $9.99 to $39.99 a month on monthly billing. Its site says all plans come with a 7-day free trial and no card required. Because it's an extension, it runs while your browser is open.
Linked Helper LinkedIn automation free trial
Linked Helper offers 14 days of full Pro access with no card, and its site says nothing renews automatically. It's desktop software, so it runs on your computer or a server you manage.
PhantomBuster LinkedIn automation free plan
PhantomBuster's pricing page didn't load plan details when we checked on October 2, 2026, so we can't confirm its current free plan limits. Check its pricing page directly before you decide.
Best LinkedIn automation tool free plan: what to look for
If you want the best LinkedIn automation tool free plan or trial, judge it on these points rather than the price tag:
- Can you run a real campaign? Tiny action caps can't show you reply rates.
- Does it need a card? No-card trials need no cancellation step.
- Does it run with your laptop closed? Extensions and desktop apps stop when your machine does.
- Are safety limits on by default? A restricted account costs far more than $19.
- What happens after the trial? Check the first paid price.
Free LinkedIn automation tools vs paid
Free LinkedIn automation tools are fine for testing whether automation fits how you sell. They usually fall short in four places:
- Volume. Free tiers are small by design.
- Message quality. AI writing, A/B tests and branching are usually on paid plans.
- Replies. Unified inboxes and reply tagging are often paid or add-ons. Waalaxy lists its inbox as a paid add-on.
- Email. Following up by email is often reserved for higher plans, like Waalaxy's €69 tier.
Paying for a tool doesn't make it better on its own. Hollerly is weaker than some paid tools in clear ways: no B2B contact database, no email warmup network, no calls, SMS or WhatsApp. If those matter, look at our Dripify alternative comparison or the guide to the best LinkedIn automation tools.
Hollerly also has free tools you can use without an account, including a LinkedIn text formatter and an email deliverability checker.
FAQ
+Are there any free LinkedIn automation tools?
A few tools offer free plans, but most offer free trials instead. On October 2, 2026, Waalaxy listed a 14-day trial, Octopus CRM a 7-day trial and Linked Helper a 14-day Pro trial. Hollerly offers a 7-day trial of Pro with no card. Free tiers are small, so use them to test, not to scale.
+Does Hollerly have a free plan?
No. Hollerly has a 7-day free trial of the Pro plan with no card required, then paid plans from $19 a month. You can also use Hollerly's free tools, like the LinkedIn text formatter, character counter, post generator and email deliverability checker, without paying.
+Is 300 connection requests a month enough?
For most solo sellers, yes. Safe limits already keep one account around 100 invites a week, so 300 a month covers steady outreach. If you want more room, Pro removes the monthly cap while keeping the daily and weekly safety limits, and Agency spreads volume across three LinkedIn accounts.
Get replies without the busywork
Hollerly finds the people, writes every message with AI and follows up on LinkedIn and email until they reply. Runs in the cloud, from $19 a month.
