What PhantomBuster is

PhantomBuster sells run time for automations across LinkedIn and other sites. Its Start plan is $69 a month ($56 billed yearly) for 20 execution hours, and there is a free plan and a 14-day trial with no card. Results can go to your CRM or data warehouse as CSV or JSON, or through its API. It is a toolkit of many small automations rather than one outreach sequence tool.

PhantomBuster figures checked on PhantomBuster's pricing guide on 31 Oct 2026. PhantomBuster's pricing page did not load for our check, so these figures come from its own pricing guide, dated 21 Jul 2026.

A dash means we could not confirm it on their own site. Prices are list prices in the vendor's currency, before tax, and can change, so check before you buy. Product names belong to their owners; Connected Outreach is not affiliated with PhantomBuster or LinkedIn.

Where PhantomBuster wins

  • Starting free

    PhantomBuster has a free plan and a 14-day trial with no card. We have neither; we refund your first payment within 14 days instead.

  • Getting the data somewhere else

    PhantomBuster sends results to your CRM or data warehouse as CSV or JSON, or through its API. We have no API, no integrations and no CSV export.

What you get with Connected Outreach

  • A flat price instead of run time

    PhantomBuster plans are sized by execution hours and slots. Connected Outreach is a flat $29 a month for one account, with the caps written down.

  • Leads are part of the plan

    The built-in finder searches LinkedIn people by keywords, job title, industry and company, or from a pasted LinkedIn people-search link: 300 finds a month. You can also upload a CSV.

  • A live log and a daily report

    Every run has a live log and a cancel button, and a short daily report arrives in Telegram through your own bot.

The full feature-by-feature comparison with PhantomBuster

Switching from PhantomBuster

Can I bring my leads over from PhantomBuster?
Yes, if you can export them. Save the list as a CSV with a column of LinkedIn profile links and upload it on the Leads page. Run Profile Scraper once to fill in names and companies. You can also let the lead finder build a new list from a job title.
Should I run PhantomBuster and Connected Outreach at the same time?
No. Pause or cancel your PhantomBuster campaigns before you start here, so two tools never act on the same LinkedIn account. One account, one tool at a time.
Can my LinkedIn account still be restricted?
Yes, with any tool. Automating LinkedIn is against its terms, so there is always some risk. We keep it lower with fixed caps (20 connection requests a day and at most 100 in any 7 days), a random gap between sends, your own static IP address in your country, and runs that stop when LinkedIn shows a security check. We reduce the risk; we never remove it.
Does a sequence stop when someone replies?
It checks the conversation before each message and skips anyone who has replied, but that check has not been proven against live LinkedIn yet. Keep sequences to one or two messages and read your LinkedIn inbox every day.
Is there a free trial, and can I cancel?
There is no free trial. If it isn't right for you, ask within 14 days of your first payment and we refund it in full. Cancel any time from the billing portal; the plan runs to the end of the paid period.
