What a Request is
A Request is a campaign. You tell Linkeddit who you're trying to reach — the communities they're in, the conversations they're having, what you're looking for. Linkeddit finds matching Reddit users and ranks them by how likely they are to actually want to hear from you. Each match is a Lead.
You can have multiple Requests running at once — one per audience, one per use case, however you want to slice it.
Projects: your knowledge base
Attaching a Project to a Request gives the AI what it needs to write outreach that sounds like you — your product, your goal, your voice, your value props, and what you don't want mentioned. The more you fill in, the better the drafts.
One Project can power many Requests. Pro tip: if you sell two products, set up two Projects; if you have one product but want different tones for different audiences, you can do that too.
How a draft DM is written
When you open a lead, Linkeddit drafts a DM tailored to that specific person — grounded in your Project, with light context from what's publicly on their Reddit profile. The draft is always editable. The goal is a believable opener, not a template.
- Drafts are short and conversational by default.
- They only reference the lead's profile when it adds something.
- Hit regenerate for a different angle if you don't like the first take.
- Follow-ups take the conversation so far into account.
Sending DMs with the extension
The Linkeddit Chrome extension is the fastest way to work a queue. It lives in a side panel next to whatever you're doing, shows you one lead at a time, and lets you review & send straight from your own Reddit account — no API keys to set up, no separate inbox to babysit.
As you send, Linkeddit marks leads as contacted so you don't message anyone twice, and the request's remaining count goes down in real time.
Tips for response rates
- Read the draft. Tweak the first sentence so it feels like you wrote it from scratch.
- Keep it short. Long DMs feel like sales pitches; short DMs feel like a real person reaching out.
- Ask a question. People reply to questions more than statements.
- Pace yourself. Bursts of messages from a new account are the fastest way to get flagged.
- Pay attention to follow-ups — they tend to outperform openers if they're genuinely useful.
