Zevari vs HeyReach

HeyReach is the sender. Zevari is the brain and the hands.

If you already run HeyReach, keep reading - this is not a rip-out pitch. HeyReach does one thing well: it sends LinkedIn touches across a pool of accounts at volume. That is sender infrastructure, and it is a good pipe. What it does not do is decide who to message, research them, write in your voice, score the reply that comes back, or stage the next move for your approval.

That is the brain - and right now you are it, or your VA is, or an appointment setter is. Zevari moves the brain and the hands into your agent inside Claude Code or Codex: it researches the prospect, scores them against your ICP with reasons, drafts in your voice, warms the account first, and stages every send for you to approve. Run it as code, drive HeyReach with it over MCP, or have us run it for you.

The fast version

A truck vs the driver who knows where to go

HeyReach is the truck. Zevari is the driver who knows where to go, what to say when they get there, and asks you before knocking. Plenty of teams keep the truck and hire the driver. Some realize the driver came with a truck of his own.

So the honest framing: Zevari and HeyReach are not the same layer. The question is not "which one." The question is "what is steering the sender?" A faster sender just sends your mediocre list faster - the needle in the haystack is a targeting and judgment problem, not a sending one.

Signal-based targeting

HeyReach sends the list you load. Zevari finds the list - your agent scans for people posting about your topic in the last 30 days, scores each one against your ICP from 1 to 5 with reasons, and builds lookalikes from a known-good client.

Voice DNA, not templates

HeyReach sends the templates you write. Zevari drafts the connection note and the follow-up in your voice - trained on your sent messages, so outreach sounds like you, not AI and not a merge-variable template.

Inbox Radar on the replies

HeyReach hands you an inbox to work by hand. Zevari classifies replies by intent and stages on-brand responses for your approval, so you act on the one reply that matters instead of sorting them all.

Run both

Zevari drives HeyReach over MCP

This is the part most comparison pages get wrong - they pretend it is either/or. It is not. If HeyReach is already your sending backbone and you do not want to move it, don't. Point Zevari at it. Your Claude Code or Codex agent does the thinking and hands the sending to HeyReach. You get the brain you were missing without touching the pipe you already trust.

That is the augment path, and most teams start there. The reason a lot of them eventually consolidate onto Zevari alone is simple: once the brain is doing the targeting, the writing, the warming, and the inbox triage, the standalone sender becomes one more login and one more bill for a job your agent could already run end to end. You move when you are ready, not because we forced it.

Keep your sender, add the brain

If HeyReach is already your sending backbone, point Zevari at it over MCP. Your Claude Code or Codex agent does the thinking - targeting, ICP scoring, Voice DNA drafts, reply classification - and hands the sending to HeyReach.

Warm-by-default before the ask

Profile views, reactions, and genuine comments staged before the connection request, held in hosted state so a newer account ramps gradually instead of sprinting into restrictions.

Campaigns your agent advances

Your agent builds the sequence, advances each target on schedule from real signals, and keeps it moving in hosted state - persistent scheduling that Claude Code or Codex can't hold on its own.

Approval gate on every write

HeyReach sends on the schedule you set. Zevari puts a human between the draft and the send - every message, connection request, comment, and post waits for your sign-off.

For the engineer

Hands on LinkedIn from inside your agent loop

You run Claude Code or Codex. You already know HeyReach is an API and a UI for fan-out sending. What you are missing is hands on LinkedIn from inside your agent loop - search, signals, campaigns, inbox, content - as tools, plus hosted state so the schedule survives between sessions. Reach Zevari over MCP for Claude Code and Codex, or our REST API from your own code.

Safety

"I don't want to be banned." That's the number one thing buyers tell us.

Volume sending across a pool of accounts is a sender's job. Judgment about how each account behaves is the brain's. Zevari connects session-based with no browser cookies, enforces weekly ceilings and behavioral pacing, and puts a human approval gate on every write. A year of the founder running his own account on it. Zero ban incidents to date - the receipt, not an adjective.

Drives the other?
HeyReach

n/a

Zevari

Yes - Zevari can drive HeyReach over MCP

When HeyReach alone is still the right call: if your only job is fanning out a list you already trust across a pool of accounts, and you're happy to build the list, write the copy, and work the inbox yourself, HeyReach covers the pipe. The line you cross is the moment you want smart targeting, copy that sounds like you, replies sorted for you, and an approval gate on every send - then you either point Zevari at HeyReach or let Zevari run the whole motion.

FAQ

Questions buyers ask when they're switching

Is Zevari a HeyReach alternative or do I run both?

Both work. HeyReach is sender infrastructure; Zevari is the brain and the hands inside Claude Code or Codex - targeting, ICP scoring, Voice DNA writing, warming, and inbox triage, with every send staged for your approval. Many teams run both and let Zevari drive HeyReach over MCP. Most eventually consolidate onto Zevari once the agent is running the full motion.

Can Zevari drive HeyReach?

Yes. Your Claude Code or Codex agent does the thinking - signal-based targeting, ICP scoring, voice-matched drafts, reply classification - and hands the sending to HeyReach over MCP. You keep your existing sender and add the brain you were missing. Reach Zevari over MCP for Claude Code and Codex, or our REST API from your own code.

Will this get my LinkedIn account banned?

No tool can put zero in writing, and anyone who does is lying to you. What we can put in writing is the mechanism: every write action - message, connection request, comment, post - is staged for your approval, the connection is session-based with no browser cookies, and weekly ceilings (40 free, 80 Premium, 150 Sales Navigator) plus working hours, behavioral pacing, duplicate checks, and burst caps are enforced automatically. The model was refined over a year of the founder running his own account on it, with zero ban incidents to date.

How many connection requests can I send per week?

Free LinkedIn: 40 per week. Premium: 150 per week. Sales Navigator: 200 per week. Zevari enforces these ceilings for you so volume never trips LinkedIn's limits.

Do I need LinkedIn Sales Navigator?

No. You can start without it. Sales Navigator only raises your weekly connection ceiling - it is not required to run Zevari.

Does it actually send the messages, or just draft them?

You choose. By default every send is staged for your approval - you approve from chat, Slack, or a digest. Nothing touches your account until you say so.

Can it write messages in my voice?

Yes. Voice DNA is trained on your sent messages, so connection notes and follow-ups sound like you, not AI.

Can it find people who are posting about a topic and reach out to them?

Yes. Signal-based targeting scans for people who posted about your topic in the last 30 days, scores them 1 to 5 against your ICP with reasons, and stages outreach - so you reach the high-intent few, not a static title-matched list.

I'm not technical. Can I still use this instead of HeyReach?

Yes - that is the Managed tier. You don't learn Claude Code or Codex. We build and run the engine on our infrastructure and send you messages to approve from Slack, on your account, with your sign-off on every send.

Run it as code, or have us run it

Same approval-gated brain, two ways in. Reach Zevari over MCP for Claude Code and Codex, or our REST API from your own code - and keep HeyReach as the sender if you want.

We run it for you

You don't run Claude Code or Codex, but you want the same approval-gated brain working your pipeline instead of a sender you have to feed. We set it up, run it on our infrastructure, and send every message to you for approval from Slack - typically less than the appointment setter you're already paying for the same job.
