Desktop AI LinkedIn Outreach App
Sell a desktop app that automates LinkedIn outreach from the user's machine instead of a cloud farm.
In plain English
LinkedIn outreach can run from a desktop app on the user's own Mac or Windows computer, which is what Jonathan Lis sells. Messages go out from that person's machine and internet connection, rather than from a remote bank of computers, which is meant to be safer for the account. The AI helps with a series of messages and with keeping the inbox in step. Buyers pay per person, with more than one plan level. The AI does a large share of those messages, the inbox work, and the billing, while Jonathan still guides people on account safety, sells the app, and answers support questions.
