Free LinkedIn tool

LinkedIn connection request message generator

Describe who you want to connect with and what you noticed about them. You get six notes under LinkedIn’s 300-character limit, each from a different angle, none of them a pitch.

Free · no sign-up

How to use it

  1. Say who the person is: role, company type, size.
  2. Add one real thing you noticed. A job post, a post they wrote, a tool they adopted. This is what gets the invite accepted.
  3. Pick the note that sounds most like you and send it without a pitch. Save the pitch for after they accept.

Questions

How long can a LinkedIn connection note be?+

300 characters on most accounts, and free accounts get a limited number of personalised notes each month. Every note this tool writes stays under 280 characters so it fits with room to edit.

Should I pitch in the connection request?+

No. Notes that pitch get ignored or reported. Say why you want to connect, tied to something real about them, and start the conversation after they accept.

Is it free?+

Yes. No sign-up and no card. It is limited to a handful of uses per hour so it stays free.

Can this send the invites for me?+

Updately does that: it finds people showing buying signals, writes each note from the signal and sends invites and follow-ups from your LinkedIn account within safe daily limits.

Updately

Find people showing buying intent and message them on LinkedIn.

Signals surface people hiring for your use case, engaging with competitors or asking for recommendations. The AI researches each one and writes the message, then follows up and answers replies.

“Find people at UK fintechs who are hiring SDRs, add them to a list and start my warm-intro campaign.”

“Updately gave us control of what we were doing as opposed to giving the keys and letting them go. But most importantly, the reason why we joined Updately was because it was a third of the price of the agency that we were using to do a similar type of outreach.”

“If you don't have an active, engaged LinkedIn pipeline and you have a clearly defined ICP and persona, you need to add Updately to your tech stack immediately to supplement your sales.”

“I found myself looking at some of the messages that it's created and thinking like, wow, where did it find this? This went really deep to find information that you could never do in just a cursory search.”
