Who should choose which
Choose Valley if
- you want signals to drive the list. Valley captures profile viewers, post engagers, followers and competitor engagers on its own.
- you want a person to read every reply draft before it goes out, which is how Valley works, and the session to stay on your own computer.
- you write to prospects in many languages. Valley says AI outreach can be written in 39 languages, chosen per campaign.
- you are an agency that wants one workspace per client in a shared admin view.
Choose Sellinger if
- you want the agent to send the answers too, qualify the person and propose a time, with approval mode only where you ask for it.
- your buyers are also on email, WhatsApp or Instagram, and you want one agent and one conversation history across them.
- you want contacts, deals and conversations in a CRM inside the tool, with a two way HubSpot sync, and a database of 700M+ contacts to search.
- you want to start without a card. Sellinger gives 30 days free on messaging modules, where Valley asks for a payment method.
What it costs for one and for five LinkedIn accounts
On LinkedIn alone the monthly prices are close. A Valley Starter seat is $199 and a Sellinger LinkedIn agent is $198. Both connect one LinkedIn account. Valley is cheaper if you pay by the quarter, and its Plus and Growth plans add email and credits, which Sellinger prices as separate modules.
All prices are monthly list prices in US dollars. Valley's help center quotes an agency example of $180 per seat, so we used the public prices.
| LinkedIn accounts | Valley | Sellinger LinkedIn agent |
|---|---|---|
| 1, billed monthly | $199 (Starter) | $198 |
| 1, Valley billed quarterly | $149 a month ($447 a quarter) | $198 |
| 5, billed monthly | $995 (five seats, agency page) | $890 (5 agents at $178) |
Who sends the reply
Valley reads each incoming message, labels its interest and drafts an answer. The draft sits in an Approvals tab until a person sends it. Autopilot is a per campaign switch for outbound messages only.
Sellinger's agent answers replies itself and stops when it cannot, for example when it has no price to quote. A campaign can also hold every message for approval. The difference is the default: Valley keeps a person on every answer, Sellinger lets you decide where that person sits.
Where the LinkedIn session runs
Valley Desktop is an app on your computer that holds the LinkedIn session locally, so activity comes from your own machine. Valley's pages disagree on whether this replaced an older Chrome extension, and on monthly limits.
Sellinger connects your account through a hosted login and stores no password. Each account has a daily limit, a weekly cap and a quiet window at night. No tool can guarantee that LinkedIn will not restrict an account.
Switching between Valley and Sellinger
Valley seats are tied to one LinkedIn account and cannot be changed after connecting, so plan the move around accounts.
- Connect a LinkedIn account in Sellinger that Valley does not use.
- Upload the people you want to reach as a CSV file, or search the database.
- Write down your offer and approve the opening messages.
- Give it a few weeks, then compare replies and meetings per account before you move a seat.
- Valley's help center says to use only one automation tool per LinkedIn account.
- Campaign history and drafts in Valley do not move across. We have not checked what Valley exports.
