Last updated 19 October 2026

When you plan your linkedin person who sells on LinkedIn signal outreach, HeyLead handles the work. HeyLead is an AI agent for LinkedIn outreach: it finds the right people, writes to them in the voice of your own LinkedIn posts, follows up, and handles replies. It runs from Claude Code, Cursor, any MCP client or a web dashboard.

## What the linkedin seller signal is

The linkedin seller signal means a person does LinkedIn outreach by hand. The source is a person's own activity on LinkedIn. This signal is attached to one person. It expires after 14 days.

The weight in HeyLead's score is 0.35. Scores run from -0.30 to 0.90. A negative score lowers priority. This signal raises priority but does not write the invite note.

## How HeyLead detects the signal

HeyLead re-reads the profiles and posts of people in your campaigns and searches LinkedIn for your keywords. HeyLead watches 40+ signal types, scored, matched to your ICP and expiring. A strong signal starts outreach and the opener says why now.

It works in Claude Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop and claude.ai, any MCP client and a web dashboard. You can also use it in ChatGPT as a custom MCP app. This is tested on ChatGPT Pro. Custom apps depend on your ChatGPT plan and settings.

You might also look into the linkedin industry thread participant signal outreach.

## What to write in your outreach

You open with what they did. You mention the post, the move, or the comment in a sentence about it. You then ask one question they can answer in writing. You include no pitch in the first message.

Before an invitation, HeyLead warms up. It does a profile view, a follow, and a comment on a recent post. It sends an invitation with a note, an opening message, up to 2 follow-ups on Free and 5 on Pro, InMail and email fallback.

It reads your own LinkedIn posts to learn your voice and never posts unless you ask for a post. Another option is the linkedin promotion signal for a job search.

## The brief to type into HeyLead

You type a one-sentence brief in Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT or the HeyLead dashboard. One sentence creates a draft campaign. HeyLead drafts the campaign. You review it and press Launch. Nothing is sent until you press Launch.

There are six campaign goals. You can sell a product or service, find a job, hire people, find partners or investors, find a vendor, or research interviews. Hire people, find partners or investors and research interviews work with a custom brief.

## Limits and workflow

Replies are read, classified and answered from the campaign's facts. Anything ambiguous is held for you. A "not now" gets a check-in in 30 days. Opening messages, follow-ups and answers to replies wait for your approval until you switch to autopilot. Invitations, not-now check-ins and meeting nudges are not held.

It runs from the cloud with your laptop closed. Free costs $0 for one connected account with 2 follow-ups. Pro costs $29 a month per connected account. The client's source is on GitHub under MIT. The hosted backend is not.

HubSpot is the CRM it syncs with. Google Calendar is the calendar it books into.
