Reachy
Reachy is a local-first desktop agent for LinkedIn outreach. It sources buyers from live signals, scores them against your ideal customer profile, writes messages with your own AI key and runs follow-ups automatically.
What is Reachy?
Reachy is a desktop application that runs LinkedIn outreach as an agent rather than as a message sender. Installed on your own computer, it drives its own embedded browser: there is no cloud backend logging into your account, no proxy and no external scraper. Every action leaves from your real IP address at human pace, which the publisher presents as the core safety argument, since datacenter IPs are what typically triggers LinkedIn restrictions. It is deliberately not a Chrome extension, a form factor the vendor rejects for its detectable fingerprint and its dependence on cloud scheduling.
The workflow covers the whole prospecting cycle. You paste your website URL and the tool auto-detects your ideal customer profile. You then source contacts from live buying signals, such as reactions to a post, members of a group, a creator's followers, event attendees, Slack communities or website visitors identified through RB2B, Vector or Warmly, and refine the list with demographic filters, LinkedIn search or Sales Navigator. Each contact is scored against your ICP. Sequences of connection requests, opening messages and follow-ups then run on your schedule and stop the moment someone replies, with safe daily caps and an automatic warm-up for new or cold accounts. Replies land in a single centralised inbox covering every account.
AI writing is optional and works on a bring your own key basis: GPT-5, Claude Fable 5 or Gemini personalise, reformulate and translate messages, billed by the provider directly at zero markup, with no tokens consumed for searching, connecting, messaging or scoring. Multi-account auto-rotation, per-client isolation and exportable reporting target agencies handling five to fifteen accounts.
Builds are signed for Windows 10/11, macOS 11 and later, and Linux. The publisher is BlackZebra, a French company, and the site claims 4.9 out of 5 from 814 aggregated reviews and more than 17,500 downloads. Reachy is not affiliated with LinkedIn, a point its own terms make explicitly.

How to use Reachy

- Optionally create an OpenAI, Anthropic or Google API key to switch on AI writing, capping the monthly spend as the how-to guides suggest

- Refine the resulting list with demographic filters, LinkedIn search or Sales Navigator
- Build the sequence of connection request, opening message and follow-ups, leaving the safe daily caps and warm-up enabled
- Launch the campaign and keep the app open during your working hours, since nothing runs once it is closed

The lowest paid entry point is the Solo plan at USD 39.00 per month, or USD 390.00 per year. Team is priced at USD 79.00 per month for five seats and Agency at USD 179.00 per month for fifteen seats, annual billing reducing the effective monthly rate by approximately 17%. Optional identity-verified Sales Agent seats start at USD 49.00 per agent per month. All paid plans carry a seven-day money-back guarantee and may be cancelled at any time.

Data, GDPR & hosting
A consolidated view of how Reachy handles your data.
GDPR overview
GDPR compliance is claimed explicitly and repeatedly, and the privacy policy is concrete rather than decorative. BlackZebra, a French company registered under SIREN 978381564, names itself as data controller. Three legal bases are cited: contract performance under Article 6(1)(b), legitimate interests under Article 6(1)(f), and consent under Article 6(1)(a) for optional usage data and marketing cookies. The full set of rights is listed, covering access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, objection, withdrawal of consent and complaint to a supervisory authority, with a one-month response commitment. Six processors are named with their locations, and transfers outside the EEA are covered by standard contractual clauses. The strongest claim is architectural: prospect data never leaves the user's machine. No data processing agreement and no security certification are published, however.
Who owns the data?
The terms are explicit: the publisher claims no intellectual property rights over the material you provide, so your prospect lists, messages and campaign results remain yours. BlackZebra owns only its own side of the product, namely the code, databases, design and layout, which you may not copy or reuse without written consent. The privacy policy reinforces that split at the architectural level: your LinkedIn session, prospect lists, messages and campaign data live on your computer, the vendor hosts no copy of your network and states it cannot read your conversations. Ownership therefore stays with the customer, and the vendor's access is limited by design rather than merely by promise.
Reuse rights
Because the material you feed into the tool remains yours, you may reuse your prospect lists, messages and campaign results without asking the publisher for permission: it holds no rights over them. Getting that data out is a supported action rather than a workaround, with CSV and Excel import and export, enriched contact export, and synchronisation to HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Make, Zapier and n8n. The restrictions sit on the other side of the line: you may not copy or reuse the application's code, databases, design or layout without written consent, reverse engineer it, run data mining against the service or resell it. One practical limit is worth noting, as it is a trial restriction rather than a rights question: contact export stays locked during the free trial and unlocks with a paid plan.
Data retention & training
Hosting summary
Reachy's answer to the hosting question is that, for the data that matters most, there is barely any hosting at all: prospect data, message content and the LinkedIn session live on the user's own computer. The publisher states it keeps no copy of the user's network and cannot read conversations, and API keys for OpenAI, Anthropic or Google are stored locally and used directly against the provider. Only a limited set of account and usage data reaches third parties, and the privacy policy names them with their locations: Lemon Squeezy in Utah for payments, Mixpanel in London for anonymised in-app analytics, Sentry in San Francisco for error monitoring, PostHog in the United States for website analytics, Ahrefs for cookieless traffic measurement and Meta for advertising measurement loaded only after consent. Transfers outside the EEA are covered by standard contractual clauses. The publisher is French, the terms note that hosting and infrastructure rely on third-party vendors without naming a jurisdiction for the application itself, and the website is served behind Cloudflare. No regional hosting choice or data residency option is offered, since the local architecture makes one unnecessary for prospect data.
Things to keep in mind
Risks and trade-offs to weigh before adopting Reachy.
- Reachy is not affiliated with LinkedIn, and its terms state the publisher accepts no responsibility for LinkedIn's decisions about your account, restrictions included
- Automating outreach on a platform you do not control leaves the risk of a restricted or lost account with you, however careful the pacing
- Sending at scale makes it easy to drift from genuine personalisation into volume spam, damaging both your reputation and your prospects' patience
- Delegating every message to an AI can erode your own ability to research a prospect and build an argument, and readers increasingly recognise generated copy
- Disputes are governed by United States law and settled by individual arbitration there, with jury trial and class actions waived, despite the publisher being French
- The service is supplied as is and as available, with the publisher declining responsibility for the security of your account or content
- A twelve-month mutual non-solicitation clause applies after termination and may constrain your commercial relationships
Setup & Integrations
Technical difficulty
Low. The vendor times it at about three minutes: install the downloaded file, log into LinkedIn through the app's embedded browser, then pick a signal and launch a list. Ready-made binaries cover Windows, macOS and Linux, and no server, proxy or configuration file is involved. The only technical step is optional: switching on AI writing requires creating your own OpenAI, Anthropic or Google API key, which the how-to guides cover in under five minutes and recommend capping with a spend limit. Search, connecting, sequences and lead scoring all work without any key.

Should you pick Reachy?
Reachy makes a single, coherent bet: move LinkedIn outreach off the cloud and onto the user's own machine. Everything follows from that choice. Because actions leave from your real IP at human pace, with per-account caps and a warm-up system, the account-safety argument is structural rather than promotional. Because prospect data, messages and sessions never reach a vendor server, the GDPR claim rests on architecture instead of policy language. And because there is no cloud infrastructure to fund, the pricing can stay flat, with no proxy fees, no per-account surcharges and no usage credits, while AI runs on your own provider key at cost.
The tool is also more than a sender. Signal-based sourcing, automatic ICP detection and lead scoring put real work ahead of the message, which is what distinguishes it from simple sequencing software. The clearest fits are solo founders and freelancers on the Solo plan, small sales teams on Team, and lead-generation agencies handling five to fifteen client accounts, where the fifteen-seat plan is genuinely well priced.
The trade-offs are real and worth weighing. The application must stay open for anything to run, LinkedIn is the only channel, and AI features require an API key you set up and pay for yourself. Several gaps deserve attention before a business purchase: no data processing agreement or security certification is published despite the privacy positioning, no postal address appears anywhere on the site, and disputes are governed by United States law and arbitration even though the publisher is a French company. Headline performance figures are self-reported.
With a full 14-day trial that needs no card and a free monitoring tier that never expires, the cost of forming your own opinion is close to zero.
