LinkedIn safety

Opt-in, slow, and it stopswhen LinkedIn says stop

LinkedIn restricts automated tools, and no tool can promise your account will be left alone. Here is what Outlevo does to keep the risk low, and what it does the moment LinkedIn objects.

Opt-in

Off until you turn it on

By default Outlevo only drafts LinkedIn messages for you to send yourself. Outlevo sends on LinkedIn only from your own account, only after you turn it on for a campaign and accept a written warning; it is off by default.

  • You connect on Unipile's hosted sign-in page; Outlevo never sees your LinkedIn password
  • You can turn it off at any time
  • Defaultdrafts for you to send yourself
  • Opt-inper campaign, from your own account
  • Warningaccepted in writing first

The limits

The most Outlevo ever sends from one account.

Volume

At most 20 invitations and 40 messages a day and 100 invitations a week, and you can only lower them.

Pacing

One action at a time, a random 6 to 18 minutes apart, on weekdays during your working hours (9:00 to 17:00 unless you change them).

Slow down

When LinkedIn asks it to slow down, it waits at least an hour, and after an invitation limit it sends no invitations for 72 hours.

Before every send

The same checks as email

Before each send it checks again that the person is not suppressed, unsubscribed, an existing customer or in an open deal, and that no kill switch is on; nobody gets the same invitation or message twice.

  • A draft that fails its checks is left for you to send by hand
  • Every send is on the audit log
  • Suppressed or unsubscribednot contacted
  • Customer or open dealnot contacted
  • Kill switch onnothing sent
  • Already sentnever sent twice

When LinkedIn restricts or disconnects the account

What Outlevo does, in order.

  1. 1

    It stops

    If LinkedIn asks you to sign in again, restricts the account or asks for an action, or Unipile reports the connection stopped, Outlevo pauses that account at once.

  2. 2

    It tells you

    You are told in the app and by email, and your daily brief says so until you reconnect or resume. Outlevo also posts a message in your workspace chat saying what happened and that sending from the account stopped, with the one way on.

  3. 3

    It does not retry

    It does not retry on its own: nothing is sent from the account until you reconnect or resume.

  4. 4

    If a send is not confirmed

    If LinkedIn does not confirm a send, Outlevo never sends it again by itself; the task is left for you to check.

What we cannot promise

  • No tool can promise LinkedIn will not restrict an account, and Outlevo cannot undo a restriction.
  • The limits above are conservative, not a guarantee. If the account matters a lot to you, leave sending off and send the drafts yourself.

Questions about LinkedIn safety

Can LinkedIn restrict my account if I use Outlevo?
No tool can promise LinkedIn will not restrict an account, and Outlevo cannot undo a restriction. LinkedIn's User Agreement restricts automated tools. That is why sending is off until you turn it on and accept a written warning, and why the limits are low.
Do I have to let Outlevo send for me?
No. By default Outlevo only drafts LinkedIn messages for you to send yourself from your own LinkedIn. Sending from your account is a separate opt-in, per campaign.
What happens if LinkedIn restricts or disconnects my account?
Outlevo pauses that account at once, tells you, and sends nothing more until you reconnect or resume. It does not try again by itself.
