I got tired of paying $300+/month across 4 tools for outbound, so I built my own

Not here to trash other tools or market mine hard, just sharing this as someone who was a pretty typical customer of this space for a while.

I was running outreach across LinkedIn, email, and trying to get WhatsApp working too. Ended up with a stack that looked something like Waalaxy or Expandi for LinkedIn, a separate tool for cold email, something else for lead scraping, and a CRM to tie it all together. Each one alone wasn't crazy expensive, but the total added up fast, and none of it scaled well. Add more accounts, add more seats, price jumps every time.

The other thing that got old was context switching. Reply comes in on LinkedIn, reply comes in on email, none of it in one place, constantly jumping between tabs just to keep track of who said what.

So I built Orbitra. It handles lead sourcing (Google + LinkedIn scraping with filters), sends outreach across email and LinkedIn, and an AI agent handles replies and follow-ups until it gets you to whatever the goal is, call, demo, whatever you're after. WhatsApp's finishing up now too.

Opening up beta access to 10 people for now. If you want in, comment or DM me.

Paused open free trials for Orbitra. Instead, I’m personally onboarding 10 users 1:1 for free this month.

Free trials were getting abused by low-intent signups, and since B2B outreach automation involves real infra costs (proxies, warmup, API calls), opening the floodgates didn't make sense anymore.

Instead of just closing the door, I want to do something that actually creates value for serious users (and helps us build a better product):

This month, I’m opening 10 dedicated spots for people running active B2B campaigns.

If you get selected:

  • You get access to the tool.
  • I’ll personally set up and run your outbound infrastructure with you 1:1 (LinkedIn + Email setup, warmup, targeting, campaign flow).
  • Basically treating it like a free 1:1 mentorship / hands-on onboarding session until your campaigns are live and hitting high reply rates.

Who this is for: Founders, agency owners, or sales teams who already have an active offer and are ready to send outbound now (not just testing out ideas).

If you’re interested, either drop a comment below or send me a DM with a brief note on what you’re selling and your current outbound volume.

Happy to answer any questions about our infrastructure/metrics in the comments as well.

First time using Reddit ever. Did not expect it to work this well.

Reddit and LinkedIn have honestly become my two main channels, and they work in completely different ways.

Started posting on Reddit a few weeks ago, first time using it at all before that. What I've learned so far:

- Be consistent, posting once and disappearing does nothing

- Reply to comments, even the harsh ones

- Write your own thoughts, not something that reads like it was generated, people notice instantly and it kills any trust you're building

- Don't let the insults get to you, there will be some, ignore them and keep going

LinkedIn is where the real magic happens though:

- It's basically my blog at this point

- I show up, share what I'm building

- That's where most of my inbound is coming from

- Real conversations, real interest

- Most of my free trial signups trace back to LinkedIn specifically

Funny enough, LinkedIn outreach is the one thing I've fully automated. Not sure yet if I'll ever automate my own LinkedIn presence too, might defeat the purpose honestly. We'll see.

Offering free trials early on isn't always the right move for a B2B outreach automation tool, let me explain

Free trials sound great on paper. More signups, more people trying the product, easier growth story.

What nobody talks about is what it costs you behind the scenes when the tool itself has real per-user infrastructure, proxies, API calls, warmup cycles running in the background whether someone converts or not.

We hit that wall faster than expected with Orbitra. Paused free trial access for now, not because the product isn't working, the opposite actually, demand for LinkedIn and email outbound automation has been higher than we planned for at this stage.

Paid plans are still open, and pricing's staying where it is, we think it's the most competitive on the market right now.

For context on what it's actually doing: a few fresh LinkedIn accounts we ran through one campaign hit 60% acceptance rate and 30%+ reply rate within two weeks. Would be curious to hear what numbers others running cold outreach campaigns are seeing on accounts that age.

Within 1 month I guarantee you'll close at least 1 call. If not, I refund your subscription down to the last cent.

Reddit can get pretty harsh when someone launches a new project. As a solo builder in my first few months, I feel the harsh comments, all of them. Haven't stopped me, and it won't.

I wanted to give a real guarantee, not just a slogan, to show that I actually believe in what I'm building.

Orbitra automates B2B outreach across Email, LinkedIn and WhatsApp. It finds leads based on the filters you set, sends connection requests and messages, and an AI agent handles the replies until it gets you to a call or a demo.

If you run a B2B business and want to put it to the test, DM me.

If you have questions or doubts, comment below, I'm here.
