The LinkedIn agent.
The LinkedIn agent works your LinkedIn the way a careful BDR would, sends connection requests in your voice, follows up on accepts, drops the thread the second a real human replies. It works on the account you connect, not a shared session, so replies land in your own LinkedIn inbox and you keep ownership of every relationship it opens.

What it actually does
The LinkedIn agent reads the list you give it, looks up the public Voyager profile for each contact (current company, title, location, recent posts when they're public), drafts a connection note that sounds like you and references one real signal, and sends it inside LinkedIn's pacing rules. On accept it sends an opening message a couple of days later (you set the gap on the campaign), and on a quiet thread it follows up on a schedule you control. The moment a contact replies, comments, or reacts, the LinkedIn agent stops sending to that person and the thread is yours.
What it will not do
- Won't dial twice on a contact already engaged. If the email agent or demo agent has already touched the contact and gotten a reply, the LinkedIn agent skips the row inside an omnichannel flow, that's the omnichannel agent's job to enforce.
- Won't keep messaging after a reply. One reply pauses the LinkedIn agent on that conversation, follow-ups are queued against contacts who didn't respond, never against people who did.
- Won't ignore LinkedIn's pacing. New accounts get a softer ramp, established accounts max out around LinkedIn's weekly invite ceiling, you don't have to set either, the LinkedIn agent watches the rolling window itself.
Where it fits
Single-channel work, you launch a LinkedIn campaign from the dashboard, point the LinkedIn agent at a list, and walk away. Multi-channel work, the LinkedIn agent slots into an omnichannel flow as the LinkedIn step, and the omnichannel agent decides when it fires relative to the email agent's email and the demo agent's demo send. Either way the messages go out from your account, not a pool, that's the only way replies come back to you the way prospects expect.
How to put it to work
- Connect LinkedIn, walkthrough here.
- Build or import a list, on /dashboard/leads. CSV with a LinkedIn URL column is enough.
- Click
+ New campaign, pick LinkedIn, paste the connection note (or let Ciela draft it), set the daily cap and follow-up cadence, hit Launch. - Watch the queue from /dashboard/team/mira. Sent, Accepted, Replied are the three numbers that matter.
