The thing that pushes people out
Dripify's entry plan is advertised from $39 a month billed annually, and on its own pricing page that buys one campaign and 20 connection requests, 30 messages and 10 InMails a day. The full daily quotas — 75 connections, 100+ messages — are a paid upgrade to the Pro tier.
That is the whole story of most Dripify migrations: not that the product is bad, but that you are paying to be allowed to go faster, and the number you need turns out to be two tiers up.
So the useful question when shopping for a replacement is not "what does it cost" but "what does it meter?" — because almost all of them meter something.
The alternatives, side by side
Checked on each company's own pages on 12 August 2026. Currencies left as each company publishes them.
| tool | where it runs | publishes content | what it meters | list price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dripify (what you have) | cloud | no | daily quotas by plan — 20 connections/day on Basic | $59 / $79 / $99 · from $39 annual |
| Booost Business | desktop app — your laptop or your own server | yes, incl. as a Company Page | nothing — only anti-ban limits | €79 / €99 per managed account |
| Booost Personal | browser extension; automates nothing | drafts comments, you publish | nothing | €19 / €29 per account |
| Waalaxy | cloud, since 1 July 2026 | no | 300–800 invitations/month by plan | €19 / €49 / €69 per user |
| Expandi | cloud, dedicated country-based IP per account | no | configurable daily ranges | $99 · $79 annual per account |
| HeyReach | cloud, dedicated residential proxy per sender | no | enrichment credits: 100 / 1,000 / 3,000 | $79 per sender · $999 for 25 |
| lemlist | Chrome extension links your session; execution not publicly documented | no | credits: $10 per 1,000 enrichment | $109 · $87 annual (Multichannel) |
| Linked Helper | desktop app, installable on your own server | no | AI credits: 250/month, 500 on Pro | $15 · $45 |
| We-Connect | cloud | **yes — Post Remix, a $16/seat/month add-on** | seats; says "no credit caps" | $59 per seat, annual |
| Meet Alfred | cloud | yes — LinkedIn, Facebook, X, Instagram | per-user seats | $29 / $39 per user, annual |
Almost every row meters something. Waalaxy counts invitations, HeyReach and lemlist count enrichment credits, Linked Helper counts AI credits, Expandi tunes daily ranges. The exception is We-Connect, which advertises "no credit caps, no locked features" — so we are not going to claim Booost is the only one without a counter. What is true: Booost has no plan quota at all, its ceilings are anti-ban limits identical on both editions, and it is the only tool here that runs on your own AI key or a model on your own machine — the AI bill is yours to read rather than ours to meter. If the Dripify quotas are what pushed you out, that distinction — a limit that protects the account against a limit that sells a tier — is the one that matters.
And the half that is actually rare: only two of these tools publish on LinkedIn — We-Connect through Post Remix, a $16/seat add-on, and Meet Alfred across four networks. What none of them does is build the post from your own sources: Booost reads your feeds, merges what several outlets say about one subject, and passes the draft through fact-check and faithfulness gates before it reaches you.
If the quota was the problem
- Expandi is the closest like-for-like: cloud, no volume tier, limits as configurable ranges tuned per account, $99 ($79 annual). It is also the only other tool here that positions itself on protecting the account rather than on volume.
- Waalaxy is cheaper (€19) but replaces one counter with another: 300 invitations a month on the entry plan, 800 above it. If you found 20 a day tight, do the arithmetic before switching.
- HeyReach solves it by multiplying accounts instead of raising limits — $999 for twenty-five senders with automatic rotation. That is the agency answer, not the individual one.
- Booost simply has no such number. It costs more per account (€79–99) and does more; the honest trade is at the bottom of this page.
If what you actually wanted was the machine off
Dripify's headline promise is real and worth naming: "campaigns run on our servers, so nothing depends on your browser being open or your machine being on." If that is the part you liked, then most of this list keeps it — Waalaxy, Expandi and HeyReach are all cloud.
But it is worth knowing that a desktop tool can do the same thing, on hardware you own rather than the vendor's. Linked Helper publishes official guides for installing on a VPS or a dedicated server. Booost ships a Linux .deb and an AppImage with every release, and its licence allows installing on "any device of your own" — so a Debian server you rent runs campaigns around the clock, with your session and your IP staying on a machine you control.
The difference was never uptime. It is whose machine acts as you while you sleep.
Where Booost actually fits
We build Booost, so weigh this section accordingly — the facts above are sourced, this part is the argument.
Booost does outreach and content in one workflow — and, unlike We-Connect and Meet Alfred which publish what you or their AI writes, it drafts the post from your own sources: it reads your feeds, merges what several outlets say about the same subject, and runs the draft through fact-check and faithfulness gates before publishing it under your name or as a Company Page and engaging around it. It also maps the network you already have — every contact scored on six axes with the evidence behind each, plus an affinity score that warms with interaction and cools with silence — rather than working from an imported list. Its AI is included flat on Pro: no key, no credit bundles, no tokens to top up.
And what Dripify sells that we do not: it is cheaper at every tier, and from the Pro plan it gives you webhooks and a HubSpot integration, plus A/B testing and step analytics on Advanced. Booost has no equivalent for those. If your outreach has to land in a CRM automatically, that is a concrete reason to stay.
The one claim nobody on this page can make — except one
Section 8.2 of LinkedIn's User Agreement prohibits third-party software that automates activity regardless of where it runs, naming browser extensions explicitly. Cloud platforms are covered, desktop applications are covered, and Booost Business is covered — our Acceptable Use Policy says so in writing.
Nobody has published data comparing restriction rates between architectures, so treat any percentage you are quoted as an opinion. Booost Personal is the exception: it performs no action on LinkedIn at all — it drafts, a human publishes.
