⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Finally, a LinkedIn tool that actually moves the needle As Head of Business Development and Community at Atlas, I was caught in endless LinkedIn scrolling, trying to engage meaningfully with prospects. I tried LinkedIn Sales Navigator but it just helped me filter and add connections. It didn't help me build relationships or get on anyone's radar. Extrovert changed everything: Smart filtering: Surfaces content from people who actually matter to my business, saving hours weekly. Focused productivity: No more doom scrolling. I stay laser-focused on prospects that matter, engage meaningfully, and get back to work. Contextual engagement: Comment suggestions aren't generic templates. They're thoughtful, relevant, and easy to customize to match my voice. Strategic positioning: By engaging with prospects' content before reaching out, I'm already on their radar. Connection requests get recognition instead of cold indifference. Results: Response rates improved significantly, and prospects now reach out to me first after seeing my thoughtful engagement. This isn't just another LinkedIn automation tool. It's a relationship-building strategy that works. If you're doing B2B outreach, this will change how you think about social selling. Well done, Extrovert team.

The pro is really good - which you get for about 2 weeks, then you go down to the free plan and then the value diminishes greatly. I gave it 4 stars because I think the insights should be better in the free plan. After losing the Pro benefits, I was no longer finding value in the free version. In fact, I found it annoying that it would try and join all of my calls when I didn't get value from it. Since then I've bounced around to other note takers. There are other incentives to make me switch to Pro, like the team access. I think that's really helpful. I think if they had made the Free plan more indispensable, I would give this a higher review.

We use this for our UI/UX design, prototyping, research, and some branding materials. It helps us design faster because we can hook into a design system.

This makes writing product tickets on linear super easily. It's just great! It all works within Slack. I write to Alfred to write linear tickets. Alfred also reads Github pushes and updates linear tickets so PMs aren't in the dark about what engineers are doing.

Linear is super easy for non-technical folks to use. The UI/UX is much better than Jira and ClickUp.

We love Windsurf so much. The cascade function helps us be ultra productive.

Claude is great for content generation. It sounds natural and not like a bot.

Whimsical is perfect for wireframing and ideation. We brainstorm all the time with this tool.

We use this to keep out app from crashing. It's great.

Notion helps us track tasks, workflows, and projects. We keep all of our documents in here.

It's my default browser. I haven't tried a new one in years. I like how you can have different user profiles so i can have my work and personal profile up with different passwords saved. Updates are quite frequent, but they always relaunch my tabs, so I never put it off.

I use it for work and personal. I don't know if anything is ever going to surpass this incumbent. it's connected to the other thing i use everyday - Google Calendar. so, it's nice to have the suite of products all working together.

i use it everyday. i love when tools are integrated into slack.
