Every tool in this category says it works. None of them shows you a week.
Below is what Hellofew's own LinkedIn accounts did, week by week, running the same product you would run, selling this product to people who had never heard of it. The accounts belong to the person who built it and to friends who lent theirs. Quiet weeks are left in, because a quiet week reported as a quiet week is the only reason to believe the good ones.
Updated every time the page loads. Nothing here is edited by hand.
Our own accounts, the last eight weeks
Sent is invitations that actually went out. Accepted is connections made that week. Replied is people who wrote back. The weekly ceiling is 80 invitations on a Premium account, so a week over that cannot appear here.

What the product refused to do
Across every customer, not only ours. A near-empty profile sending invitations is the pattern LinkedIn most reliably restricts, so under 150 connections we refuse to send at all. LinkedIn watches your accept rate and restricts accounts whose invitations get ignored, so we watch the same number and stop first. Here is how often each of those happened.
| Since launch | All time | Last 30 days |
|---|---|---|
| LinkedIn accounts connected | 2 | |
| Invitations sent | 5 | 5 |
| Accounts we refused to send from (under 150 connections) | 0 | 0 |
| Times the accept-rate breaker halved an account's daily cap | 0 | 0 |
| Times it stopped invitations on an account entirely | 0 | 0 |
| Accounts stopped for good by the day-one tripwire | 0 | 0 |
| LinkedIn checkpoints on a connected account | 0 | 0 |
| LinkedIn restrictions on a connected account | 0 | 0 |
No tool can promise an account will not be restricted. LinkedIn's terms prohibit third-party automation, and detection keys partly on things outside anyone's control. What can be published is how a tool behaves, and this is that. The limits themselves are on the product page.
Why publish this
Everyone else in LinkedIn automation sells volume. Hellofew sends less, on purpose, and says so. A number you can check is the only honest way to make that claim, so the numbers are here, good weeks and bad. If a week looks wrong, say so, and it gets looked at in public.
