01Is Pipeline just another AI SDR tool?
No. Generic AI SDRs run one static LLM with generic personalization. Pipeline is a team of specialist agents that each run real operator playbooks, share state through tables, and improve from your outcomes every week.
02Do I need to bring my own API keys?
Yes. Pipeline is pure BYOK. You connect your own AI, enrichment, LinkedIn, and sender credentials. There is no credit system and no markup on usage. You own your data and your spend.
03Does it only do LinkedIn?
No. Native LinkedIn sending is built in: connects, DMs, follows, and comments with daily limits and account cooldowns. You can also build lists and copy in Pipeline and push them to Instantly, SmartLead, or EmailBison for email.
04How does it get good campaigns from day one?
The Strategist reads your GTM context and the agents pull skills from top outbound operators like Eric Nowoslawski and Mitchell Keller. You get proven playbooks tuned to your business instead of trial and error.
05Can I run it from the terminal or an API instead of the app?
Yes. Pipeline is API-first. It ships a hosted MCP server so you can drive the whole agent team from Claude Code, Cursor, the REST API, or the CLI. The app is the evidence layer where you review and approve.
06What does it replace?
The headline replacement is a human GTM engineer hire ($80-150K per year plus ramp and tools). The secondary one is the fragmented stack of Clay, HeyReach, Trigify, and content tools that runs $435-2,326 per month and does not talk to itself.
07Will Pipeline get my LinkedIn account restricted?
No. Pipeline sends with daily limits, account cooldowns, and plan detection (Classic, Sales Navigator, Recruiter) so activity stays within safe LinkedIn ranges. New accounts warm up gradually, and every irreversible action can pass a human approval gate.
08How is Pipeline different from Clay or HeyReach?
Clay is a data tool and HeyReach is a LinkedIn sender. Pipeline is the GTM engineer that would operate them. It builds lists, enriches, qualifies, writes, sends natively, and handles replies as one agent team with shared tables.
09What is a LinkedIn GTM agent team?
It is five connected specialists that run the LinkedIn work together. The Strategist sets campaign direction, the GTM Engineer builds and launches, the Reply Agent handles new replies, the SDR Agent follows up with warm leads, and the GTM Lead improves what runs next. Every handoff stays visible in Pipeline.
10How much does Pipeline cost?
$99 per seat per month, pure BYOK. You connect your own AI, enrichment, and sender keys and pay those providers directly, with no markup and no credit system.
