Reachium vs Waalaxy
Waalaxy is a Chrome extension. It drives LinkedIn internal endpoints from your browser, which is why review sites and Reddit threads keep surfacing flags, restrictions, and bans. Reachium does not touch a browser extension, a proxy, or your own IP. It runs on the verified LinkedIn API. That is the single biggest difference between these two tools. One automates around LinkedIn. The other is built on the rails LinkedIn actually sanctions.
Waalaxy sends connects and follow-ups, and it does that part well. But that is where it stops. Reachium runs the whole pipeline. Outbound campaigns feed a cross-account unified inbox with AI reply classification and meeting detection. Replies flow into a network CRM with contact cards, tags, lead scoring, and relationship history. Booking happens in-platform. You are not stitching Waalaxy to Zapier, a CRM, and a calendar to close the loop.
Outreach gets harder when nobody knows who you are. Waalaxy can schedule posts and draft copy with Waami, but it has no content strategy engine. Reachium has an inbound AI content engine: a 4-bucket strategy generator, image generation, a content calendar, and profile optimization that warm the audience before you ever pitch. It runs the engagement campaigns that make connects accept. Reachium pairs the content that builds authority with the outbound that books meetings.
Reachium ships a lead-magnet builder with hosting and trigger-keyword detection. Post the offer, someone comments the keyword, and Reachium auto-DMs them the asset and opens a thread. It is inbound demand capture wired straight into outreach. Waalaxy has nothing like it. To run that play with Waalaxy you would manually watch comments and message people one by one, which defeats the point of an automation tool.
Some teams want the playbook run for them, not another dashboard to learn. Reachium offers a managed Done-For-You tier where the strategy, copy, content, and campaigns are handled end to end on the verified API. Waalaxy points agencies at its self-serve team plan and tells you to configure it yourself. With Reachium you can buy the software, or you can buy the outcome. That choice does not exist on the Waalaxy side.
$79 per LinkedIn account per month billed annually, or $99 month to month. Each account includes 25 AI credits per month. Cancel anytime, no contract, data exportable for 30 days on cancel, no refunds on paid periods. Add-ons: rented pre-warmed accounts at $150/mo each (dedicated proxy plus 4-week warmup), extra AI credit packs from $19, and a Done-For-You managed service priced on request.
14-day trial, no permanent free plan on the live page. Pro 19 euro/user/mo (300 invites, 25 email-finder credits), Advanced 49 euro/user/mo (800 invites, 25 email-finder credits, API and integrations), Business 69 euro/user/mo (LinkedIn plus cold email, 500 email-finder credits). Yearly billing -50%, quarterly -20%. Pricing is per LinkedIn seat. The enhanced Inbox is a separate paid add-on (about 20 euro/mo) and cannot reply for teammates.
Waalaxy pricing verified June 2026. We make Reachium, so we’re biased — this is the honest breakdown.
You want verified-API safety plus outbound, inbound content, lead-magnet DMs, booking, and a CRM in one platform, with a Done-For-You option.
If you are a solo founder or small team that just wants cheap, fast LinkedIn-plus-email automation and you accept the browser-extension risk, Waalaxy genuinely wins on price and time to launch. Its 19 euro Pro plan undercuts Reachium, the setup takes minutes, and native cold email is built in. If outbound volume on a tight budget is the only goal, start there. Once you need verified-API safety, inbound content, a real CRM, and booking in one place, that is Reachium.
You want the cheapest, fastest way to automate LinkedIn connects and cold email, you are a solo user or small team, and you accept the browser-extension risk.
Moving from Waalaxy to Reachium means leaving browser-extension automation for the verified LinkedIn API. Export your Waalaxy leads and conversation history to CSV, import them into Reachium network CRM, reconnect each account, and rebuild sequences as Reachium campaign types. Most teams run one account in parallel for a week before fully switching.
