Safe by default, on every LinkedIn account.
Each account has its own limits, hours and warm-up, checked before anything is queued. When LinkedIn pushes back, the account rests on its own. Here is exactly how it works, numbers included.
- Limits checked before anything is queued
- Every account starts on the Safe preset
- No browser extension
Example workspace: names and numbers are made up.

11 safeguards, on from the start.
Each one is part of the engine that plans every account's day, and every new account starts with all of them on.
Caps that vary each day
People don't send exactly 20 invites every day, so neither do your accounts.
Each day an account gets a share of its limits between 80% and 100%, the same on every server and in the app, so “12 of 18 left today” is always true.
14-day warm-up
Every account connects on the Safe preset with warm-up on, and builds up slowly.
Day one runs at 25% of the account's limits, rising evenly to 100% on day 14. Every daily limit warms up; the weekly invite cap and the pending-invitation limit stay as you set them.
Working hours
Accounts act only on the days and hours you choose, in their own time zone.
The default is Monday to Friday, 9:00 to 17:30 in your workspace's time zone, and overnight windows work too. Nothing is sent outside the window; mailboxes keep their own hours.
Random gaps
No machine-gun bursts: every action waits a little before the next.
Between two actions of the same account there's a random pause of 90 seconds to 6 minutes. Mailboxes have their own random gaps.
Pending-invitation limit
LinkedIn restricts accounts that keep too many invitations unanswered.
New invites pause when the pending count reaches the account's limit (400 on Safe). Withdraw old invites in bulk, or automatically after 14 to 90 days, at most 30 a day.
Acceptance-rate guard
When too few people accept, invites slow down on their own.
Once 30 invites are old enough to have been answered, acceptance under 25% slows invites to three quarters, and under 15% to half speed, with a note telling you why.
Auto-pause on LinkedIn warnings
If LinkedIn says slow down, the account stops and rests.
The account pauses for 12 hours and resumes on its own; the lead it was working on waits. If LinkedIn signs the account out, its campaigns wait until you reconnect.
Free InMail to open profiles
Reach people you aren't connected to without spending credits or invites.
InMail steps send only to open profiles by default, so they never use InMail credits unless you allow it, and they skip people you're already connected with.
Rotation across accounts
More volume comes from more accounts, not from pushing one harder.
A campaign spreads its leads across the sender accounts you pick, and each lead stays with one sender, so every account stays under its own limits.
Hard ceilings
Custom limits can go up, but never past a ceiling.
Whatever you type, an account can't be set above 100 invites a day or 200 a week. Our presets sit well under the guidance our LinkedIn provider publishes.
A reply always wins
Someone who answers never gets another automated step.
A reply stops the lead's sequence, even if it arrives while an action is running. Out-of-office replies resume it three days later.

Checked before it's queued, not after.
Most damage happens when a tool sends first and counts later. Ours plans each account's day before a single action goes out.
Step 1:
Plan the day
Each account's budget for today: its limits, today's 80–100% share, warm-up, the acceptance guard and invitations still pending.
Step 2:
Queue within the budget
Only actions that fit the budget and the working hours are queued; the rest wait for tomorrow.
Step 3:
Act like a person
Actions go out one at a time with a random gap, from that account only.
Step 4:
Listen and react
Replies stop sequences, warnings pause the account, and acceptance is checked a few times a day at random times.
The numbers, per LinkedIn account.
Every account picks a preset or custom limits. These are the real values the engine uses.
- Warm-up on topFor the first 14 days, daily limits start at 25% and rise evenly to 100%.
- Variation on topEach day an account uses 80% to 100% of its daily limits.
- Withdrawals are separateWithdrawing old invites doesn't count as an invite, and stays under 30 a day.
- Mailboxes have their ownEach mailbox has its own daily email limit and a 21-day volume ramp-up.
| Limit | Safe (default) | Standard | Highest you can set |
|---|---|---|---|
| Connection requests a day | 20 | 35 | 100 |
| Connection requests a weekA rolling seven days. | 100 | 150 | 200 |
| Invitations waiting for an answerNew invites pause at this number. | 400 | 500 | 700 |
| Messages a day | 40 | 80 | 150 |
| Profile visits a dayIncludes reading a profile for an AI draft or a condition. | 60 | 90 | 150 |
| Likes, endorsements and follows a day | 40 | 70 | 150 |
| InMails a day | 10 | 25 | 50 |
Custom limits can be anything up to the last column. We recommend Safe for at least the first weeks of any account, and Standard only for established accounts with a healthy acceptance rate.
We reduce the risk. We can't remove it.
LinkedIn's User Agreement restricts automated activity, and LinkedIn can limit or restrict any account it believes is automated, at its own discretion. No tool can promise that won't happen, and we won't either.
What we can do is keep each account well inside conservative limits, behave like a person (hours, gaps, variation), slow down when the signals turn bad, and stop when LinkedIn pushes back. You stay responsible for how your accounts are used and for what you send.
The full wording is in our terms and acceptable use policy.
Five habits that keep accounts healthy
- Start every account on the Safe preset with warm-up on, and keep it there for the first weeks.
- Write to people who'd plausibly want to hear from you: acceptance rate is the signal that matters most.
- Withdraw invites nobody answered after a few weeks, or let auto-withdraw do it.
- Don't run another automation tool on the same account at the same time.
- Need more volume? Add an account rather than raising one account's limits.
