Comparison

HeyReach alternative — built for agencies, priced like one.

HeyReach helped pioneer multi-account LinkedIn outreach, but agencies running 10+ accounts often hit pricing walls, juggle multiple tools for replies, and want sharper safety controls. Here's an honest side-by-side, plus the math.

Honest comparison·Last updated 21 May 2026·Sources cited

TL;DR
  • Pricing. HeyReach charges per seat (~$79–$99/seat/month) — a 10-account agency pays around $999/mo. Badgr is £249/mo for 10 accounts flat (~$329).
  • Unified inbox. Both have multi-account inboxes. Badgr adds AI-handled replies and handoff rules so junior reps don't drown.
  • Account safety. Both use dedicated proxies. Badgr adds an automatic kill-switch when a LinkedIn flag is detected, before damage compounds.

We've kept this comparison honest — HeyReach is a solid tool. The question is whether it fits an agency's economics and workflow.

Why agencies switch from HeyReach to Badgr.

The three things we hear most from agency owners in onboarding calls.

Predictable agency pricing.

HeyReach's per-seat model punishes growth — every new client account adds another seat. Badgr's Agency tier is flat at £249/mo for 10 accounts, so margins improve as you scale, not the other way around.

"Our HeyReach bill nearly doubled when we onboarded three clients. Switching paid for itself in month one." — Tom B., founder, B2B lead-gen agency

An inbox you can actually delegate.

A unified inbox is table stakes. What agencies actually need is for replies to be triaged, categorised, and routed without a senior rep reading every message. Badgr's AI handles the first pass so your team only touches what matters.

"I stopped opening the inbox three times a day. That alone was worth the switch." — Priya N., COO, recruitment agency

Safety that fails closed, not open.

Both tools use dedicated proxies. The difference is what happens when LinkedIn does flag something. Badgr's kill-switch pauses the account automatically the moment a soft-flag signal is detected, so one warning doesn't snowball into a restriction.

"I'd take 'paused for a day' over 'restricted for a month' every single time." — Marcus L., founder, outbound agency

The math

Save $9,000+ per year.

On a typical 10-account agency setup.

HeyReach $999/mo 10 seats × ~$99 / seat
Badgr Agency $329/mo 10 accounts, flat
Annual savings $9,000+ Funds 2 extra clients

Switching questions.

What agency owners ask us most in the first onboarding call.

Yes. On the Agency tier and above, our team migrates your sequences, audiences, and active campaigns for free. Most migrations take 1–2 business days. Your HeyReach account stays live until you're ready to switch over, so there's no gap in outreach.
Both tools use dedicated 1:1 residential proxies and browser-fingerprint isolation — the foundations are the same. Badgr adds an automatic kill-switch: when our system detects a soft-flag signal from LinkedIn, the account is paused before more sends compound the issue. We treat safety as a circuit-breaker, not just a configuration.
That's between you and HeyReach — we won't cancel it on your behalf. Most agencies run both tools in parallel for 2–4 weeks while they verify Badgr is performing, then cancel HeyReach at the end of the billing cycle.
Yes — Basic, Premium, Sales Navigator, and Recruiter accounts are all supported. We do not yet support LinkedIn Learning admin accounts (neither does HeyReach).
When a prospect replies, Badgr categorises the message (interested, not interested, out of office, wrong person, question, etc.) and either drafts a response for your rep to approve, sends a routing notification, or pauses the sequence — based on rules you set. You stay in control; the AI removes the triage work, not the human judgement.
No. Month-to-month on every paid tier. Annual billing is optional and gives you 20% off. You can downgrade or cancel inside the dashboard without a support call.
