LinkedIn is where Alpheous goes for advisor and firm intel that is not in your CRM yet, and where the Prospector finds new firms worth covering. It is a read source: the agents use what they learn there to enrich profiles, surface signals, and shape the outreach you review. Nothing is ever posted or sent to LinkedIn automatically: the platform has no automated LinkedIn send path at all. When outreach calls for a LinkedIn message rather than an email, Alpheous can prepare a copy-ready draft; once you approve it, you copy it into LinkedIn and send it yourself from your own account.
What the Agents Do with LinkedIn
Advisor and Firm Discovery
The Prospector reads LinkedIn for advisor profiles, firm pages, and role changes that match your coverage. New advisors at firms you already cover, moves to firms in your target list, and net-new firms inside your strategy all surface as prospect cards in Slack. You approve which ones become real CRM records.
Profile Enrichment
When you ask the Sales Assistant to brief you on an advisor, the agent can pull current title, firm, tenure, and a recent activity read from LinkedIn to round out what your CRM already knows. The Prospector does the same job for net-new contacts before any outbound goes out.
Trigger Signals from Public Posts
The Trigger Monitor watches LinkedIn for signals worth acting on: a covered advisor changing firms, an LP posting a fund-related update, a firm announcement that changes your coverage picture. The signal surfaces as a card in Slack with the source link and a suggested next step.
Context for Outreach
When a LinkedIn signal warrants a follow-up, Signal Outreach uses the profile context it read to draft a personalized email, through the same approval flow as the rest of your outreach: the agent posts the draft and the signal that prompted it, and you approve, edit, or skip. Separately, a "Draft LinkedIn Message" action lets you queue a copy-ready DM for approval alongside a profile card. Either way, the draft waits for you: an email send stays in your mail client, and a LinkedIn message is one you copy and send yourself.
Which Agents Use This Connection
| Agent | How It Uses LinkedIn |
|---|---|
| Prospector | Discovers new advisors and firms; enriches profiles before outreach |

How to Tell It Is Connected
When LinkedIn is connected, the Prospector returns new prospect cards in its Slack channel during the workweek and advisor briefs from the Sales Assistant include current LinkedIn profile context. If prospect cards stop arriving, or an enriched brief is missing the LinkedIn read you expect, contact support@alpheous.com.
Alpheous reads LinkedIn but does not act on it for you: there are no automated connections, messages, or posts to LinkedIn. The intel it gathers feeds the drafts you review; approved outreach goes out however you send it, by email or, for a LinkedIn message, by you copying it into LinkedIn yourself.
