In fairness

Where lemlist is the better choice.

Stated plainly, because a comparison that wins every row is an advert.

  • Email is the core of the product, with lemwarm warm-up and deliverability tools in every plan. We only ramp up volume.

  • A built-in lead database, so you can find prospects without LinkedIn or a CSV.

  • LinkedIn voice messages and calls are part of their Multichannel offer; we don't do voice or calls.

  • A longer track record. We're a newer product.

Where we differ

Where Outember differs from lemlist.

  • 01

    LinkedIn is the main channel, not an extra

    Every plan has the full set of LinkedIn steps (visits, likes, endorsements, invites, messages, InMail to open profiles), branching conditions and multi-account rotation, with each account kept inside its own safe limits.

  • 02

    Priced per LinkedIn account, mailboxes included

    Pro includes 2 mailboxes per LinkedIn account and Agency 3, and email-only campaigns need no LinkedIn account at all.

  • 03

    LinkedIn lead sources that refill

    Evergreen lists re-run LinkedIn and Sales Navigator searches on a schedule and enroll new people automatically; post likers and commenters, followers and connections are lead sources too.

Switching

Moving from lemlist in an afternoon.

Five steps, and nobody hears from you twice.

  1. Step 1: Pause the old campaigns

    Never run two automation tools on the same LinkedIn account at once. Pause your campaigns in lemlist first.

  2. Step 2: Export your leads

    If lemlist lets you export your lists, a CSV with names and LinkedIn profile URLs is all you need. No export? A LinkedIn or Sales Navigator search link rebuilds the list.

  3. Step 3: Import the CSV

    Columns are matched automatically, duplicates are merged, and any extra column becomes a {{variable}} you can use in messages.

  4. Step 4: Bring your do-not-contact list

    Upload the people, emails, domains and companies you never want to contact. Every campaign checks the list before each action.

  5. Step 5: Connect and relaunch

    Connect your accounts on the Safe preset (your LinkedIn conversations are imported into the inbox), rebuild the sequence from a template, and launch.

FAQ

Outember vs lemlist: questions.

Can't find yours? Ask us anything.

Contact us
Can Outember send email only, like lemlist?
Yes. Email-only campaigns run without a LinkedIn account, from your Google, Microsoft or SMTP/IMAP mailboxes, with daily limits, a 21-day ramp-up and replies read back into the inbox. We don't run an inbox-placement warm-up network, so pair new domains with a warm-up service.
Do you have a lead database like lemlist?
No. You bring leads from LinkedIn and Sales Navigator searches, post likers and commenters, followers, connections or a CSV, and the email finder looks up verified addresses inside the sequence.
Is Outember a good lemlist alternative?
It is if you want LinkedIn and cold email in one sequence across several accounts, one inbox, AI writing and CRM sync in every plan, priced per LinkedIn account. It isn't if you need what lemlist does better (see “Where lemlist is the better choice” above).
Can I move my leads from lemlist?
Yes. Import a CSV export (columns are matched automatically and duplicates merged), or rebuild a list from a LinkedIn or Sales Navigator search link. Upload your do-not-contact list too, so nobody you've excluded hears from you.
Can I run lemlist and Outember on the same LinkedIn account?
Don't. Two tools acting on one account can't see each other's activity, so together they can push it past safe limits. Pause the old campaigns before you launch new ones.
