Its main strength lies in bypassing LinkedIn’s native restrictions by using growth hacking techniques such as scraping data from groups, events, and posts, automatically warming up new accounts, and prioritizing campaigns based on performance.
The platform enables users to build multichannel sequences that combine LinkedIn actions (connection requests, profile visits, likes, and messages) with personalized email follow-ups. Expandi also includes advanced sequence builders that allow you to combine up to 10 different actions and 10 conditions, creating smart flows that simulate human behavior. To further improve engagement, it integrates with tools like Sendspark and Hyperize for video, image, and GIF personalization — although these are paid add-ons.
Beyond automation, Expandi provides analytics dashboards to track every stage of your campaigns, role-based permissions to manage teams effectively, and white-label options for agencies. Its overall value proposition is to deliver scalability while keeping campaigns safe and human-like, helping businesses boost reply rates and close deals faster.

When it comes to pricing, Expandi offers only one standard plan at $79/month/account, plus a custom Agency plan for teams with more than 10 seats. There is no free plan, and pricing is rigid since every sender requires a separate license. This lack of flexibility makes scaling expensive for small and mid-sized teams, as costs grow linearly with the number of accounts, regardless of actual campaign usage or performance.
WaLead.ai, on the other hand, provides a more flexible and predictable model. With a free plan and paid tiers starting at $29/month, features like the unified inbox are included from the beginning. From the Pro plan ($79/month), unlimited senders are unlocked, and costs increase only with usage of credits (messages, invitations, AI usage, etc.). This means teams can scale outreach without worrying about costs per sender, aligning investment with actual results rather than account count.
Expandi focuses on LinkedIn and email automation, offering smart sequences that combine different actions like connection requests, profile visits, likes, and follow-ups. Its interface is designed to help sales teams, agencies, and recruiters manage outreach at scale, and it includes features such as scraping from groups, events, and posts, as well as campaign prioritization to bypass LinkedIn’s daily limits. Expandi also integrates with third-party tools like Hyperize and Sendspark to add videos, images, or GIFs for visual personalization. However, it does not include advanced AI features: all copywriting and personalization must be done manually, and engagement relies on templates, scraping data, or external add-ons.
WaLead.ai, on the other hand, embeds AI throughout the entire prospecting process: from automatically humanizing first names and company details, to generating ultra-personalized LinkedIn messages with prompts of up to 2,000 characters. On top of that, the AI-powered Unibox Assistant helps craft contextual replies to each lead based on their actual message, creating more human-like conversations and significantly higher response rates. This makes WaLead a truly unique solution in the market, where AI drives both personalization and efficiency at scale.

No. You should not use two LinkedIn automation tools in parallel. LinkedIn can detect unusual activity or automation patterns, which may trigger warnings or even account restrictions.
Expandi costs $99/month per account and includes a 7-day free trial. WaLead uses a flexible credit-based system: from just $29/month you can start, and with $79/month you already get unlimited senders. Plus, WaLead offers a free plan to get started.
No, Expandi does not offer AI-driven personalization to the same extent as WaLead.
While Expandi provides some personalization features, such as dynamic text layers, images, and GIFs through integration with Hyperise, these require manual setup and are not powered by AI.
In contrast, WaLead utilizes AI to generate 100% personalized LinkedIn messages and offers a contextual AI assistant for natural replies, streamlining the personalization process.
Not at all. WaLead’s setup takes just minutes, and most teams are fully operational the same day. If needed, we provide plenty of resources: onboarding guides, tutorials on our website, and step-by-step videos on YouTube.
