# Hellofew vs lemlist

> lemlist describes itself as: "The all-in-one platform for precise outbound at any scale — email, LinkedIn, calls, WhatsApp and SMS from one workflow."

Figures below were read from https://www.lemlist.com/pricing on 8 September 2026.

## The short answer

- **Buy lemlist if** email is your main channel and LinkedIn is one more step in a sequence. For that job it is the better product and we would not pretend otherwise.
- **Buy Hellofew if** LinkedIn is the channel rather than one step in an email sequence, and you want it run end to end on your own account rather than a domain.

## Price

lemlist starts at **$55/mo**. Hellofew is **$49/month**.

| Plan | Price | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Email | $55–69/mo | Unlimited users · 50,000 emails/mo · 650M+ lead database · no LinkedIn automation |
| Multichannel | $87–109/mo per user | LinkedIn automation · SMS · WhatsApp · 5 senders per user · unlimited messages |
| Enterprise | quoted | Teams of 5+ users |
| **Hellofew** | **$49/month** | One LinkedIn account · 25 matched leads a day · 20 invitations a day maximum · no contract |

Email plan, annual billing; $69/mo monthly. LinkedIn needs the Multichannel plan.

## What lemlist does better

Genuinely better. If any of these is what you need, buy theirs.

- By far the widest channel coverage: email, LinkedIn, calls, WhatsApp, SMS in one sequence.
- A 650M+ contact database, email finder and verifier — we have none of that.
- Email deliverability tooling and inbox warm-up, which is a genuinely hard problem they have solved.
- The most mature product of the four, with the deepest integrations.
- A 14-day free trial.

## Where we differ

- LinkedIn automation is not on the entry plan — it needs Multichannel at $87/mo per user.
- Priced per user, so cost scales with the team rather than with usage.
- "Unlimited emails & messages" on Multichannel. Unlimited is the opposite of the constraint a LinkedIn account needs.

## What lemlist's pricing page does not mention

A daily sending limit — and neither does anyone else's in this category. All
four were checked on 8 September 2026 for any mention of invitation caps, warm-up ramps, or
what happens if LinkedIn objects to your account.

That absence is the business model rather than an oversight. Volume demos well.
But LinkedIn does not publish its limits, restricts accounts that exceed them,
and the account it restricts is yours, not your vendor's.

Hellofew's whole spec, in public: 20 invitations
a day maximum and not raisable; a new account starts at five and takes three weeks
to get there; nothing outside working hours or within 20 minutes of either end;
weekends and public holidays skipped; irregular gaps by design; an account under
150 connections sends nothing; one follow-up ever; any
reply cancels the queue; caps halve under 15% acceptance and inviting stops
under 8%, with a blunter check from day four that stops an account whose first
ten invitations were all ignored; a LinkedIn flag in the first 24 hours of
sending stops the account until a human restarts it; and nothing is sent that
the customer did not approve, one message at a time.
