How We-Connect keeps your LinkedIn account safe
LinkedIn doesn't have a process for detecting automation tools directly. Instead, it looks for behavior like unusual activity patterns, unrealistic action volumes, or suspicious login behavior.
We-Connect was built with this in mind. There are a number of features designed to keep your activity natural:
Feature | How It Keeps You Safe |
Sleep Hours | We-Connect pauses all activity during sleep hours, just like you’re offline. |
Real Residential IPs | Your activity runs through location-based residential IPs. You can refresh your IP whenever you want. |
Account Warm-Up | Gradually increase your activity over time so it looks natural to LinkedIn. |
Campaign Limits | Set the number of actions each campaign can do per day, randomize actions, and choose the hours campaigns should run. |
Global Limits | Cap the total activity for each individual action across all your campaigns, so your account stays within LinkedIn’s limits. |
Automatic Withdrawals | Clean up old connection requests and invites to resend in the future. |
You’re always in control
We-Connect only takes the actions you set up, meaning nothing runs without your input. You decide what type of campaigns to launch, when they run, and how much activity your account performs each day.
You can pause or stop automation at any time, and your account will stay synced in the background until you’re ready to start again.
We’ve helped thousands of professionals safely grow their LinkedIn networks with features designed to protect your account at every step.
