How it works
LinkedIn Automation is a desktop app that runs personalized LinkedIn outreach on your own machine, using your own browser session. Nothing about the automation executes on our servers.
At a glance
- Get an invite from the creator — this is an invite-only product, so there's no self-serve signup.
- Open your invite link to create your account; we email you a one-click sign-in link (no password).
- Install the desktop app from the download page (Windows, macOS, or Linux) — visible once you're signed in.
- Connect the app to your account: Config → Server → Sign in with browser.
- Log into LinkedIn inside the app's browser window. Your session cookies stay on your machine.
- Configure your campaign — target list, message templates, daily caps — and start a flow.
Where things live
On your machine
The Electron app, the Chromium browser it drives, your LinkedIn session cookies, the CSV of people you're reaching out to, your local campaign database, and any AI prompts you've configured — all local files.
On our server (linkedin.randao.net)
Your email, subscription state, ToS acceptance record, and — if you opt in to cloud sync — an encrypted copy of your local database so you can move between machines. We don't read your LinkedIn activity.
The sign-in flow
We use email magic-links so you never have to manage a password. When the desktop app needs to authenticate, it opens your system browser to /app-login on this site, and — if you're signed in here — we hand the app a one-time code via a localhost redirect. The code turns into a long-lived device session that's only valid on that one machine.
AI and your data
If you use AI-drafted messages, prompts are sent to an AI provider (OpenRouter or the provider you configure) for the draft. You review every message before it sends. We don't train on your data, and the raw message text never passes through our servers unless you've explicitly enabled cloud sync.

Troubleshooting
- "Sign in with browser" won't complete. The app listens on a random
127.0.0.1port; make sure nothing is blocking loopback connections or forcing all localhost traffic through a proxy. - Windows SmartScreen warning. Click More info → Run anyway — the installer is published from our public releases repo, it's just not EV-signed yet.
- macOS "cannot be opened." Right-click the app → Open → Open. App Store notarization is pending our Apple Developer Org registration.
- Linux AppImage crashes on Ubuntu 24.04+. AppArmor now blocks the Chromium sandbox. Use the
.debinstead, or enable unprivileged user namespaces.
