## How OutX Works

OutX runs through the [Chrome extension](/docs/resources/chrome-extension) installed on your browser. The extension operates in the background while you browse, it simulates normal LinkedIn browsing, so it looks exactly like you are manually using LinkedIn. OutX does not take your cookies, passwords, or save any credentials. Everything runs locally in your browser.

This means:

* **No proxy rotation or CAPTCHA solving** needed
* **No risk of IP bans**, requests go through your real browser session
* **Real-time data** from LinkedIn, not cached or stale datasets
* **Minimal risk of LinkedIn restrictions**, behaves like natural browsing

  The Chrome extension must be installed and active on at least one team member's browser within the last 48 hours for all features (including the API) to work.

## Key Features

### Social Listening

Track LinkedIn for keywords, people, and companies. OutX continuously scans and organizes matching posts into watchlists with AI-powered categorization and relevance scoring.

* **Keyword Watchlists**, Describe what you want to track in plain English. OutX generates keywords from your prompt automatically. [Set up keywords →](/docs/documentation/linkedin-social-listening/keyword-watchlist)
* **People Tracking**, Monitor posts from specific LinkedIn profiles. [Track people →](/docs/documentation/linkedin-social-listening/people-tracking)
* **Company Tracking**, Monitor company pages for posts and activity. [Track companies →](/docs/documentation/linkedin-social-listening/company-watchlist)
* **Reddit Tracking**, Monitor Reddit conversations alongside LinkedIn. [Track Reddit →](/docs/documentation/linkedin-social-listening/reddit-tracking)

### Personal Branding & Auto-Engagement

Stay active on LinkedIn automatically. Set up rules to like and comment on posts that match your keywords and target people. Comments are AI-generated in a natural tone.

* [Get started with auto-engagement →](/docs/documentation/personal-branding/get-started-in-10-minutes)
* [How auto-engagement works →](/docs/documentation/linkedin-social-listening/auto-engagement)

* **Sales Navigator Export**, Export any Sales Navigator search or list. [Export from Sales Nav →](/docs/documentation/data-export/linkedin-sales-navigator)
* **People Search Export**, Export LinkedIn People Search results. [Export from search →](/docs/documentation/data-export/people-search-export)

### API Access

## Frequently Asked Questions

OutX is a LinkedIn social listening, personal branding, and API platform. It tracks keywords, monitors profiles and companies, automates engagement, and provides API access to LinkedIn data, all through a Chrome extension that runs in the background.

Yes. OutX runs through the Chrome extension on your local browser. It simulates normal LinkedIn browsing behavior, the same as you manually scrolling, liking, and commenting. OutX does not take your cookies, passwords, or any credentials. It does not use proxies, headless browsers, or scraping. The risk of LinkedIn restrictions is minimal because it behaves like natural browsing.

OutX requires the Chrome extension to be active, your browser needs to be open with the extension running. If your computer is off or the browser is closed, watchlist scanning and engagement actions will pause and resume when the browser is open again. The extension must have been active within the last 48 hours for the API to work.

No. OutX tracks public LinkedIn posts across the platform, not just from your connections. It scans posts based on your keywords regardless of whether you are connected to the author.

You do not need to manually edit keywords. Go to your watchlist settings and edit the prompt, OutX automatically regenerates the keywords from your updated prompt. This is the easiest way to refine what you are tracking.

After creating a watchlist, it takes a couple of minutes for the first posts to appear in your feed. The Chrome extension processes watchlist tasks in the background and populates results on the next scan cycle.

Yes. When using the engagement features (via API or auto-engagement rules), you can set `actor_type` to `"company"` and provide your company name. The like or comment will be posted from your company's LinkedIn page.

Yes. On Expert and Ultimate plans, the location filter is available in the feed sidebar. This filter works by detecting country names mentioned in post content. You can also filter posts by geography using the API with appropriate search terms.

Install the Chrome extension, go to LinkedIn Sales Navigator, run a search or open a saved list, and click the OutX export button. The data is saved to your OutX database where you can download it as a spreadsheet. [Step-by-step guide →](/docs/documentation/data-export/linkedin-sales-navigator)

OutX operates through the Chrome extension installed on each user's browser. Each team member manages their own LinkedIn session. You can add team members to your OutX team so everyone's activity is coordinated under one dashboard, but each person's extension runs on their own browser.

To cancel your subscription or delete your account, contact [support@outx.ai](mailto:support@outx.ai) from your registered email address. [More details →](/docs/resources/account-management)

The count shows the total number of posts matching your watchlist filters. Posts are paginated at 20 per page, so you can calculate total pages by dividing count by 20.

Watchlists are for social listening, they continuously scan LinkedIn for posts matching your keywords, people, or companies. Databases (in the Data Export section) are for storing exported lead data from Sales Navigator or People Search. They serve different purposes: watchlists monitor conversations, databases store contact data.

Yes. The OutX API allows you to build custom integrations. You can create watchlists, retrieve posts, and automate engagement programmatically. The API is on every plan, free included. Contact [support@outx.ai](mailto:support@outx.ai) for high-volume access and white-label options.

# Pricing & Subscription

## Plan limits at a glance

Every number the backend enforces, in one table. The plan sections below add pricing and features.

| Limit                                                 | Free    | Growth  | Expert   | Ultimate  |
| ----------------------------------------------------- | ------- | ------- | -------- | --------- |
| Watchlists (all four types combined)                  | 2       | 5       | 20       | 100       |
| Team members                                          | 5       | 10      | 25       | Unlimited |
| Auto-engagement rules per watchlist                   | 1       | 2       | 5        | 10        |
| Profiles or companies per people or company watchlist | 200     | 200     | 200      | 200       |
| Tracked profiles and companies across the team        | 400     | 1,000   | 4,000    | 20,000    |
| Posts per watchlist per week                          | 2,000   | 15,000  | 15,000   | 15,000    |
| Historical data (how long a post is kept)             | 28 days | 45 days | 180 days | 720 days  |

Notes on the table:

* The weekly post limit counts posts with a relevance score of 4 or higher. Free teams whose extension and human activity have gone quiet for a while are limited to 100 posts per watchlist per week.
* `pro` is a legacy plan identifier. It carries the same limits as `growth`. There is no enterprise plan on the API.
* These are quotas on how much you can have, not on how often you can call the API. There is no request rate limit on any plan.
* Hitting a quota returns `402` with a message naming the limit. See [Error Codes](/docs/api-reference/errors).

***

## **Step 3: Select what you want [OutX](https://outx.ai) to do?**

After installing the extension, you'll see a **chatbot interface** instead of a setup modal.

Here, simply **describe in plain English** what you want to track on LinkedIn or select from pre made prompt customised for you from below.

**Examples:**

* "Track people talking about buying sales engagement tools"
* "Monitor posts mentioning Apollo, ZoomInfo, or sales automation"
* "Track founders hiring SDRs in US startups"
* "Follow posts from RevOps leaders about outbound"

The more clearly you describe your goal, the better OutX.ai can build your watchlist.

Outx.ai is designed to support different outbound goals. During setup, you select what you want to achieve:

* **Social Listening**
  * Track **industry keywords**, **competitor mentions**, and **your brand**
  * Track **people** (leads, prospects, customers)
* Personal Branding
  * Automatically like or comment on relevant posts
  * Engage with tracked people and companies
  * Stay active on LinkedIn using simple rules

Click **Start Listening** after entering your prompt.

This intent selection configures which engines and workflows are activated in your account.

OutX.ai analyzes your prompt and automatically:

# Keyword Watchlist

Source: [https://outx.ai/docs/documentation/linkedin-social-listening/keyword-watchlist](https://outx.ai/docs/documentation/linkedin-social-listening/keyword-watchlist)

## **Why Keyword Tracking?**

* Buying, hiring, and research intent is often shared openly in LinkedIn posts
* Keyword tracking helps you catch these conversations as soon as they happen
* You no longer need to manually search or scroll LinkedIn
* You can respond faster with better context and timing

***

## **How OutX.ai Helps with Keyword Tracking**

OutX.ai continuously scans LinkedIn for keywords you define or describe in plain English. It groups matching posts into organized watchlists with labels for clarity.

You see all relevant conversations in a single feed, updated automatically. From there, you can engage manually or automate engagement using simple rules.

***

## Quick Setup Guide

### **1. Create a Watchlist**

Click "**+"** along with watchlist to create a new watchlist.

A watchlist is where you tell OutX.ai *what kind of LinkedIn posts you want to monitor*.

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/wt0x9TTpziiYlSbL/images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_2.54.07_PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=wt0x9TTpziiYlSbL&q=85&s=538ba4a7e69333007dcf9ab42f87862f" alt="Screenshot 2026-02-16 at 2.54.07 PM.png" width="2856" height="788" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_2.54.07_PM.png" />

***

### **2. Add a Prompt (What should we track?)**

Instead of manually setting up keywords right away, you can simply **describe what you want to track in plain English**.

Think of this as telling OutX.ai *what kind of conversations you care about*.

**Example prompts (under 200 characters):**

* "People hiring remote engineers"
* "Founders talking about CRM tools"
* "Posts about outbound sales or lead generation"

OutX.ai uses this prompt to suggest relevant keywords for your watchlist.

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/wt0x9TTpziiYlSbL/images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_12.52.04_PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=wt0x9TTpziiYlSbL&q=85&s=62f37fdf819db4b41d500c6b68530ab3" alt="Screenshot 2026-02-16 at 12.52.04 PM.png" width="2848" height="1362" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_12.52.04_PM.png" />

Once done [Outx.ai](http://Outx.ai) will make your watchlist

***

### **Primary Keywords**

These are the **main words or phrases** OutX.ai looks for in LinkedIn posts.

Use keywords that directly relate to your intent.

Examples:

* "hiring remote"
* "looking for developers"
* "CRM recommendation"

Posts containing these keywords will be considered relevant.

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/wt0x9TTpziiYlSbL/images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_2.57.11_PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=wt0x9TTpziiYlSbL&q=85&s=b6d2952744781114cd3921831317ff41" alt="Screenshot 2026-02-16 at 2.57.11 PM.png" width="2846" height="1360" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_2.57.11_PM.png" />

***

### **Must Also Include Keywords**

Use this when a post should contain **more than one condition** to be relevant.

Example:

Track posts only if they mention:

* "hiring" **and**
* "remote"

This helps reduce noise and improves accuracy.

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/wt0x9TTpziiYlSbL/images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_3.00.17_PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=wt0x9TTpziiYlSbL&q=85&s=2177eb1bf78ea9a8c46c3b867289070c" alt="Screenshot 2026-02-16 at 3.00.17 PM.png" width="2848" height="1364" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_3.00.17_PM.png" />

***

### **Excluded Keywords**

These keywords tell OutX.ai **what to ignore**.

If a post contains an excluded keyword, it will not appear-even if it matches your main keywords.

Examples:

* "internship"
* "freelance"
* "agency"

This is useful for filtering out irrelevant posts.

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/wt0x9TTpziiYlSbL/images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_3.01.39_PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=wt0x9TTpziiYlSbL&q=85&s=4e8772e024e010b1263c2c6e7dca4a84" alt="Screenshot 2026-02-16 at 3.01.39 PM.png" width="2848" height="1358" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_3.01.39_PM.png" />

***

### **4. Intent**

Intents help you **categorize posts inside a watchlist**.

Instead of putting everything in one bucket, labels let you:

* Group similar posts together
* Quickly understand *why* a post was captured
* Route signals to the right people or workflows

**Intent Name**

A short category name, such as:

* *Remote Hiring*
* *Tool Comparison*
* *Buying Intent*

**Intent Description**

A short explanation of what this label represents.

This makes it easier to:

* Review posts faster
* Share context with teammates

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/wt0x9TTpziiYlSbL/images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_3.03.39_PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=wt0x9TTpziiYlSbL&q=85&s=c05122dfe8397dbb2a257d1ec4cdc9bd" alt="Screenshot 2026-02-16 at 3.03.39 PM.png" width="2856" height="1360" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_3.03.39_PM.png" />

***

### **5. Advanced Watchlist Settings & Notifications**

Fine-tune how and when you're notified:

* **Fetch frequency**: How often OutX.ai scans LinkedIn (e.g., every 12 hours)
* **Team access**: Add teammates to the watchlist
* **Slack integration**: Drop in your webhook URL to receive real-time alerts

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/wt0x9TTpziiYlSbL/images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_3.04.44_PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=wt0x9TTpziiYlSbL&q=85&s=8894ce8dfa21961527b6a41897a8d26e" alt="Screenshot 2026-02-16 at 3.04.44 PM.png" width="2842" height="1354" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_3.04.44_PM.png" />

***

### 6. Feed

Finally you have a live feed where you can posts with your targeted keywords.

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/wt0x9TTpziiYlSbL/images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_3.06.10_PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=wt0x9TTpziiYlSbL&q=85&s=3997fae20d391c16eae389eb58d9d9e0" alt="Screenshot 2026-02-16 at 3.06.10 PM.png" width="2846" height="1366" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_3.06.10_PM.png" />

## Frequently Asked Questions

Yes! OutX's keyword module supports hashtags as keywords.

OutX supports partial matching, so minor misspellings often still match.

Yes. Put the full phrase in the "must also include" category to track exact multi-word keywords.

Add keywords you don't want to track in the excluded keywords section. Posts containing those keywords won't be tracked.

Yes. You can monitor comments from a set of LinkedIn profiles. Comment tracking is available on Expert and Ultimate plans.

Edit the watchlist anytime and delete keywords or labels as needed.

No. There is no cap on how many keywords a single watchlist can hold. Your plan caps how many watchlists you can have, not the keywords inside one.

Yes, you can filter posts based on location if the post mentions the country you are targeting.

All posts associated with that keyword will be **permanently removed** from the watchlist results.

New posts will start appearing from the moment the keyword is added. Previously published posts will not be backfilled.

No. Editing a watchlist does **not reset the entire watchlist**. Only data related to removed keywords is deleted.

Yes. You can edit a keyword watchlist at any time, and changes apply after you save.

The configuration steps are the same. The only difference is that editing starts by clicking the **pencil icon** on an existing watchlist instead of creating a new one.

Yes. Open the watchlist configuration (gear icon), click the edit icon next to the **Prompt** section, change the text and click **Update**.

Updating the prompt replaces the whole setup: OutX re-runs the AI analysis and generates a new keyword set, new intent labels and a new relevance objective, discarding the old ones. There is no merge option, so if you only want to add a keyword, edit the keyword list directly instead of rewriting the prompt.

Posts you already collected are kept, and OutX re-classifies the recent ones against the new labels automatically. Note that the API works differently: a prompt update through [`PUT /api-keyword-watchlist`](/docs/api-reference/watchlist/keyword/update) regenerates keywords and labels but does not re-classify older posts.

Yes. On **Expert** and **Ultimate** plans, the **Location Filter** is available in the feed sidebar. This filter works by detecting country names mentioned in post content. Go to your watchlist feed, open the filters panel on the left, and select the countries you want to focus on. Note: this filters by content mentions, not by the author's profile location.

Yes. OutX tracks public LinkedIn posts across the platform, not just from your connections. It scans posts based on your keywords regardless of whether you're connected to the author.

When you create a watchlist using a prompt, OutX generates an **objective** from your prompt and scores each post 1-10 on relevance to that objective. The default sort for prompt-based watchlists is **Relevance**, showing the most relevant posts first. You can switch to **Popularity** (by engagement) or **Recent** (by post date) using the sort dropdown.

If your watchlist returns too many irrelevant posts, try these fixes:

* Add **excluded keywords** to filter out noise (e.g., "hiring", "internship", "freelance")
* Add **must-also-include keywords** to require multiple conditions
* Make your primary keywords more specific
* Use the **Intent** filter in the feed sidebar to focus on specific categories

## Quick Setup Guide

### **1. Create Watchlist**

Click "**+"** along with watchlist to create a new watchlist and click on people

A people watchlist lets you **track specific LinkedIn profiles** and get notified when something changes like new posts, job updates, or activity.

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/wt0x9TTpziiYlSbL/images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_2.54.07_PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=wt0x9TTpziiYlSbL&q=85&s=538ba4a7e69333007dcf9ab42f87862f" alt="Screenshot 2026-02-16 at 2.54.07 PM.png" width="2856" height="788" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_2.54.07_PM.png" />

***

### **2. Add Profiles**

This step defines **which LinkedIn profiles OutX.ai should monitor**.

Examples:

* *Key Prospects*
* *Target Founders*
* *Hiring Managers – US*

This helps when you manage multiple people watchlists.

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/i6ZArRMHbx_Hvbkj/images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_3.13.48_PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=i6ZArRMHbx_Hvbkj&q=85&s=b478eeaa3e40ebc4e50035976337d68d" alt="Screenshot 2026-02-16 at 3.13.48 PM.png" width="2840" height="1358" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_3.13.48_PM.png" />

This will create your people watchlist

***

### **3. Set Intents**

Intents help you **group people's post inside a watchlist**.

Instead of tracking everyone the same way, labels let you:

* Segment posts by role, intent, or priority
* Filter updates more easily
* Understand *why* someone is being tracked

**Intent Name**

A short category name such as:

* *Startup Mentors*
* *High-Intent Leads*
* *Decision Makers*

**Intent Description**

Add a short note explaining who belongs in this label.

This makes it easier for you and your team to stay aligned.

## Frequently Asked Questions

No, OutX only tracks publicly available data to stay compliant with LinkedIn's rules.

No, LinkedIn does not allow third-party tools to access private connection data.

If a user blocks you on LinkedIn, OutX cannot fetch their posts anymore.

Two limits apply together.

**200 profiles per watchlist**, on every plan.

**A total across all your watchlists, set by your plan**: 400 on Free, 1,000 on Growth, 4,000 on Expert, 20,000 on Ultimate. This counts every profile and company you track anywhere in the account, so creating extra watchlists does not raise it. To follow more people than your plan allows, upgrade or stop tracking the ones you no longer need.

Yes, OutX supports this in the profile tracking module.

Yes, you can filter posts based on location if the post mentions the country you are targeting.

Removing a profile will stop tracking that person going forward. Previously collected activity for that profile may be retained depending on your plan and retention settings.

Source: [https://outx.ai/docs/documentation/linkedin-social-listening/company-watchlist](https://outx.ai/docs/documentation/linkedin-social-listening/company-watchlist)

## How It Works

***

### **2. Add Company**

This step defines **which LinkedIn company OutX.ai should monitor** then click on start listening

Examples:

* *Key companies*

This helps when you manage multiple company watchlists.

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/i6ZArRMHbx_Hvbkj/images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_3.21.42_PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=i6ZArRMHbx_Hvbkj&q=85&s=baef867300aa20c339b29113ab8aebd7" alt="Screenshot 2026-02-16 at 3.21.42 PM.png" width="2848" height="1366" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_3.21.42_PM.png" />

This will create your company watchlist

### **3. Set Intents**

Intents help you **group company's post inside a watchlist**.

Instead of tracking everyone the same way, labels let you:

* Segment posts by role, intent, or priority
* Filter updates more easily
* Understand *why* someone is being tracked

**Intent Name**

A short category name such as:

* *Startup*
* *High-Intent Leads*
* *Decision Makers*

**Intent Description**

Add a short note explaining who belongs in this label.

This makes it easier for you and your team to stay aligned.

# Auto like and Auto comment

Source: [https://outx.ai/docs/documentation/linkedin-social-listening/auto-engagement](https://outx.ai/docs/documentation/linkedin-social-listening/auto-engagement)

### Auto Engagement via Watchlists

When Auto Engagement is enabled on a watchlist, OutX.ai monitors new posts in real time.

* Posts are picked only if they match your keywords or tracked profiles

* Engagement happens shortly after the post goes live, not days later
* This helps you stay visible without checking LinkedIn all day

***

## Step 1: Open a Watchlist

Auto Engagement always runs on a **watchlist**.

1. Go to **Watchlists**

***

## Step 4: Advanced Options (Optional)

Use advanced filters to control **which posts qualify for engagement**.

You can refine engagement using:

***

## Step 5: Activate Rule

Turn the rule **Active** and click **Create Rule**.

OutX.ai will start liking and/or commenting automatically based on your rule.

### Manual Engagement with AI Comments

For posts that matter more, you can engage manually with help from AI.

* View all tracked posts in one place
* Click **Generate Comment** to get a relevant, natural reply
* Edit the comment before posting
* Post only when you are confident with the message

This works well for high-value prospects, founders, or personal branding.

This includes posts captured from:

* Keywords

### Customizing Comment Tone and Style

You can control how AI-generated comments sound by editing the **Comment prompt** (this is the same thing as "Custom Instructions" - they refer to the same setting).

**To find it:** Click the **Gear icon** next to the comment input area:

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/eNj9ttttHX1Us0nE/images/bd1cd878-f89d-4d0b-8315-33705abda79f.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=eNj9ttttHX1Us0nE&q=85&s=573c5860dcd2783feaaab5c0ecb42430" alt="Screenshot 2025-12-25 at 12.31.39 PM.png" width="1750" height="955" data-path="images/bd1cd878-f89d-4d0b-8315-33705abda79f.png" />

Click **Edit** to update the instruction that controls your AI comment tone and style:

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/eNj9ttttHX1Us0nE/images/c5e450ff-0495-4bbf-9cc2-1a83bb1266f4.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=eNj9ttttHX1Us0nE&q=85&s=3e11d56a0b2dcb7e5bf43a74f4cac144" alt="Screenshot 2025-12-25 at 12.30.59 PM.png" width="1755" height="953" data-path="images/c5e450ff-0495-4bbf-9cc2-1a83bb1266f4.png" />

**Example comment prompts you can use:**

* "Write casual, friendly comments. Keep it to 1-2 sentences."
* "Be professional and insightful. Reference specific points from the post."
* "Write from the perspective of a SaaS founder. Be authentic, not salesy."

This setting applies to ALL AI-generated comments on your account.

***

### **Step 4: Post When Ready**

Once satisfied, post the comment directly on LinkedIn.

If it doesn't feel right, you can simply skip it.

***

### Use Both Together

Most teams use both options together:

* Auto Engagement for daily visibility
* Manual AI comments for important conversations

You stay active, relevant, and in control-without turning LinkedIn into a full-time task.

***

## Frequently Asked Questions

No. The OutX Chrome extension must be running in your browser for auto-engagement to work. If you close the browser or shut down your computer, auto-engagement pauses and resumes when you open the browser again. Keep Chrome open with the extension enabled for continuous engagement.

Click the **Gear icon** next to the comment input when viewing a post. You'll see a field called **"Comment prompt (optional)"**, this is where you write instructions for the AI. For example: "Write casual, friendly comments in 1-2 sentences" or "Be professional and reference specific points from the post." This applies to all AI-generated comments on your account.

Yes. When creating an engagement rule, you can choose between your personal LinkedIn account or a connected company page as the actor.

Start with **1-5 likes per hour** and **1-3 comments per hour**. OutX has built-in rate limiting to keep your activity natural and safe. Avoid setting very high limits to prevent LinkedIn from flagging your account.

Yes. Use the **Advanced Options** when creating a rule to filter by Intent, specific Profiles, Seniority Levels, Post Types, and time range. This ensures engagement stays targeted and relevant.

Comments are posted from the team member selected in the engagement rule. Check which account is set in the rule settings, it may be using a different team member's LinkedIn account. Admin can change this in the rule configuration.

No. OutX does not sell likes. It automates engagement from real accounts you control on posts that match your watchlists.

# Reddit Tracking

Source: [https://outx.ai/docs/documentation/linkedin-social-listening/reddit-tracking](https://outx.ai/docs/documentation/linkedin-social-listening/reddit-tracking)

OutX supports Reddit as a social listening channel alongside LinkedIn. You track keyword-based conversations on Reddit in a Reddit watchlist, which has its own feed next to your LinkedIn ones.

***

## Why Track Reddit?

Reddit is where many professionals, developers, and buyers discuss tools, share opinions, and ask for recommendations - often more candidly than on LinkedIn.

Tracking Reddit helps you:

* Catch buying intent ("looking for a tool that does X")
* Monitor brand and competitor mentions
* Discover product feedback and feature requests
* Find community discussions relevant to your market

***

## How Reddit Tracking Works

A Reddit watchlist is its own watchlist, with its own keywords, its own intent labels and its own feed. It is created from the same Keywords flow as a LinkedIn watchlist, and picking both platforms there creates **two** watchlists, one per platform.

1. **Create a keyword watchlist** and pick Reddit as a platform
2. OutX monitors Reddit for posts and comments matching your keywords
3. Matching posts appear in the **Reddit watchlist's own feed**, listed separately in the sidebar
4. Editing keywords, labels or sync frequency on one platform does not touch the other

There is no combined LinkedIn plus Reddit feed and no platform filter inside one feed. The two watchlists are independent: separate keywords, separate labels, separate sync schedules. Compare them side by side rather than expecting one merged view.

***

## Setting Up Reddit Tracking

### Step 1: Start a Keyword Watchlist

Follow the same steps as creating a [LinkedIn keyword watchlist](/docs/documentation/linkedin-social-listening/keyword-watchlist):

1. Click **"+"** to create a new watchlist and choose **Keywords**
2. Enter your tracking prompt or keywords
3. Configure must-include and excluded keywords

### Step 2: Pick Reddit as a platform

In the **Platforms** row of the create form, LinkedIn and Reddit are both selected by default. Leave both on to track the topic on both, or click one off to track a single platform.

Leaving both on creates two watchlists from one form: a LinkedIn one and a Reddit one, each generated for its own platform.

### Step 3: View Reddit Posts

Reddit watchlists appear in the sidebar under **Reddit Watchlist**, alongside your keyword watchlists. Open one to read its feed.

### Step 4: Set the sync frequency

Open the watchlist configuration (gear icon) and find **Sync Frequency** under **Advanced Settings**. The options available depend on your plan, with the more frequent ones reserved for higher plans.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**Can I track specific subreddits?**

Reddit tracking works through keyword matching across Reddit, not by subscribing to specific subreddits. Posts are matched based on your watchlist keywords regardless of which subreddit they appear in.

***

**Can I auto-engage on Reddit posts?**

No. Auto-like and auto-comment features are currently available only for LinkedIn posts. Reddit posts are tracked for monitoring and intelligence purposes.

***

**How often are Reddit posts fetched?**

On the schedule you set in **Sync Frequency**, under Advanced Settings in the watchlist configuration. Which intervals you can pick depends on your plan.

***

**Do Reddit and LinkedIn posts share one feed?**

No. Tracking a topic on both platforms gives you two watchlists with two feeds. They are separate everywhere: keywords, intent labels, sync frequency and results.

***

**Will a new Reddit watchlist show older posts?**

No. Reddit watchlists start collecting from their first sync onward, so the feed is empty until then. LinkedIn keyword watchlists do fill in recent past posts on creation.

***

**Do I need a Reddit account for tracking?**

No. Reddit tracking works without needing a Reddit account connected to OutX.

***

**Can I export Reddit posts?**

Reddit posts appear in your watchlist feed and can be viewed alongside LinkedIn posts. Export options follow the same rules as your plan's CSV export capabilities.

***

# Get started in 10 minutes

Source: [https://outx.ai/docs/documentation/personal-branding/get-started-in-10-minutes](https://outx.ai/docs/documentation/personal-branding/get-started-in-10-minutes)

Instead of manually liking and commenting on posts, you tell OutX.ai:

* **Where** to engage (keywords, people, or companies)
* **What** to do (like, comment, or both)
* **How often** to engage

OutX.ai handles the rest.

***

## Why Use Auto Engagement?

Consistency and timing are critical on LinkedIn.

Auto Engagement helps you:

* Show up early on relevant posts
* Stay visible without daily effort
* Build relationships at scale
* Grow your personal brand naturally

***

## How Auto Engagement Works

Auto Engagement always runs on a **watchlist**.

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/LnRO139aXsEVcCkr/images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_3.26.29_PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=LnRO139aXsEVcCkr&q=85&s=a5a973be1e1a8664bbb2b6a82a3509f9" alt="Screenshot 2026-02-16 at 3.26.29 PM.png" width="2836" height="1358" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_3.26.29_PM.png" />

During onboarding (or later), you:

1. Select **Personal Branding**
2. Choose where you want to auto-engage:
   * Keyword watchlists
   * People watchlists
   * Company watchlists

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/LnRO139aXsEVcCkr/images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_5.03.41_PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=LnRO139aXsEVcCkr&q=85&s=33116000d7f31d84e3f4e9151c5c963a" alt="Screenshot 2026-02-16 at 5.03.41 PM.png" width="2842" height="1370" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_5.03.41_PM.png" />

3. Create engagement rules

OutX.ai then monitors posts and applies your rules automatically.

***

# Choose Where You Want to Auto-Engage

You can enable Auto Engagement on one or more of the following:

### Keyword Watchlists

Engage with posts related to specific topics or conversations.

Best for:

* Personal branding
* Thought leadership
* Industry conversations

***

### People Watchlists

Engage as soon as specific people post.

Best for:

* Sales & outbound
* Relationship building
* Staying top-of-mind

***

### Company Watchlists

Engage with posts from specific companies.

Best for:

* Target accounts
* Competitor pages
* Partner companies

***

# Create Your Engagement Rule

Once you choose a watchlist, click **Add Your First Rule**.

You'll see the **Create Engagement Rule** screen.

***

## Step 1: Choose an Action

Select what OutX.ai should do:

* Auto-Like Posts
* Auto-Comment on Posts

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/LnRO139aXsEVcCkr/images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_5.05.00_PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=LnRO139aXsEVcCkr&q=85&s=611ea4ead440a0c67eafb53bb5b03a94" alt="Screenshot 2026-02-16 at 5.05.00 PM.png" width="2848" height="1366" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_5.05.00_PM.png" />

***

## Step 2: Choose Account

Select which LinkedIn account will be used:

* Your personal account
* Your company page (if connected)

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/LnRO139aXsEVcCkr/images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_5.05.44_PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=LnRO139aXsEVcCkr&q=85&s=8c9eccbd20b98f863fa7d6152d955655" alt="Screenshot 2026-02-16 at 5.05.44 PM.png" width="2844" height="1360" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_5.05.44_PM.png" />

***

## Step 3: Set Limit Per Hour

Control how many actions happen per hour.

Examples:

* 1 per hour
* 5 per hour
* 10 per hour

<img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/LnRO139aXsEVcCkr/images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_5.06.14_PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=LnRO139aXsEVcCkr&q=85&s=f37ea33d244c4ff557968a67ff57415b" alt="Screenshot 2026-02-16 at 5.06.14 PM.png" width="2842" height="1360" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_5.06.14_PM.png" />

This keeps activity safe and natural.

***

## Step 4: Advanced Options (Optional)

Use advanced filters to control **which posts qualify for engagement**.

You can refine engagement using:

* **Filter Intent** – Engage only on posts matching selected intent types (e.g., buying intent, hiring, announcements)
* **Filter Profiles** – Limit engagement to specific profiles or profile categories
* **Filter Seniority Levels** – Engage only with posts from certain seniority levels (e.g., Founder, VP, Manager)
* **Filter Post Types** – Choose which types of posts to engage with (text posts, image posts, job posts, etc.)
* **LinkedIn Posted At** – Engage only on posts published within a selected time range

These filters help ensure engagement stays **relevant, targeted, and high-quality**.

***

## Step 5: Activate Rule

Turn the rule **Active** and click **Create Rule**.

OutX.ai will start liking and/or commenting automatically based on your rule.

***

# What Happens After Setup

Once enabled:

* OutX.ai monitors posts in real time
* Applies your engagement rules
* Likes or comments automatically
* Logs every action

You can pause, edit, or delete rules anytime.

***

# You're Live

In under 10 minutes, you've:

* Chosen where to auto-engage
* Created engagement rules
* Enabled automation
* Started building your LinkedIn presence

OutX.ai now grows your visibility in the background so you don't have to.

## Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. When creating an engagement rule, you can select your company page as the account to use. Comments and likes will then be posted as the company rather than your personal profile.

Start conservatively with 1-5 likes per hour and 1-3 comments per hour. These limits help keep your activity looking natural and reduce the risk of LinkedIn flagging your account. You can adjust limits over time as you monitor results.

***

# How to Automate Likes & Comments?

Source: [https://outx.ai/docs/documentation/personal-branding/how-to-automate-likes-comments-to-boost-engagement](https://outx.ai/docs/documentation/personal-branding/how-to-automate-likes-comments-to-boost-engagement)

Auto-engagement lets your team auto-like and auto-comment on LinkedIn posts that match your watchlists, keeping you active and visible without manual effort.

> Too Long? Watch this →

## How It Works

1. **Create a watchlist** with keywords, people, or companies you want to engage with
2. **Set up an engagement rule**, choose auto-like, auto-comment, or both
3. **Pick the account**, your personal LinkedIn or your company page
4. **Set a safe limit**, control how many actions per hour (start with 1–5)
5. **Activate**, OutX handles the rest automatically

| **Post type filter** | Choose text, image, video, or job posts              |

## Customizing Comment Tone

You can control how AI-generated comments sound by editing the **Comment prompt**. Click the **Gear icon** next to the comment input when viewing a post.

Example prompts:

* "Write casual, friendly comments. Keep it to 1-2 sentences."
* "Be professional and insightful. Reference specific points from the post."
* "Write from the perspective of a SaaS founder. Be authentic, not salesy."

This setting applies to all AI-generated comments on your account.

## Best Practices

* Start with low limits (1–3 likes per hour, 1–2 comments per hour)
* Keep Chrome open, auto-engagement only works while the extension is active
* Use intent and seniority filters to keep engagement targeted
* Review your [Activity log](/docs/documentation/personal-branding/activity) regularly

## Frequently Asked Questions

No. The Chrome extension must be running for auto-engagement to work. If you close Chrome or shut down your computer, engagement pauses and resumes when you reopen Chrome.

Click the Gear icon next to the comment input when viewing a post. Edit the "Comment prompt" field with instructions for tone and style. This applies to all AI comments on your account.

Yes. When creating a rule, choose your company page as the account. You can have separate rules for personal and company engagement.

Start with 1-5 likes per hour and 1-3 comments per hour. OutX has built-in rate limiting, but keeping limits moderate ensures natural activity. See [LinkedIn Safety](/docs/resources/linkedin-safety).

No. OutX does not sell likes. It only automates engagement from real accounts you control on posts that match your watchlists.

OutX runs through your browser and simulates normal browsing behavior. The risk is minimal when you use moderate limits. See [LinkedIn Safety](/docs/resources/linkedin-safety).

Comments are posted from the team member selected in the engagement rule. Check which account is set in the rule, it may be a different team member's account. Admin can change this in the rule settings.

## What We Listen To

OutX.ai continuously monitors engagement activity on LinkedIn posts, including:

* Comments on posts
* Likes and reactions
* The people interacting with specific content
* The context of the post being engaged with

This allows us to go beyond *what people post* and focus on *what they interact with*.

***

## How OutX.ai Processes Engagement

Here's how the Engager works behind the scenes:

1. **Post Identification**

   We identify relevant LinkedIn posts based on keywords, people, or companies you track.

   <img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/OYowRz3KyvZXH-Xu/images/Screenshot_2026-02-24_at_4.51.29_PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=OYowRz3KyvZXH-Xu&q=85&s=aa9fcae3c93f87f52b20b52c8b7a069f" alt="Screenshot 2026-02-24 at 4.51.29 PM.png" width="2834" height="1362" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-02-24_at_4.51.29_PM.png" />

2. **Engagement Capture**

   OutX.ai captures:

   * Who liked the post
   * Who commented

   <img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/OYowRz3KyvZXH-Xu/images/Screenshot_2026-02-24_at_4.52.11_PM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=OYowRz3KyvZXH-Xu&q=85&s=ad900c3de2e713341c151c255e3f9e07" alt="Screenshot 2026-02-24 at 4.52.11 PM.png" width="2830" height="1354" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-02-24_at_4.52.11_PM.png" />

3. **Signal Creation**

   These interactions are converted into structured list you can later act on.

   <img src="https://mintcdn.com/outxai/vmfeIcrZ5hqnCI53/images/Screenshot_2026-01-21_at_10.12.00_AM.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=vmfeIcrZ5hqnCI53&q=85&s=c6c70dd1711352f62f96a9812bf4d210" alt="Screenshot 2026-01-21 at 10.12.00 AM.png" width="2848" height="1360" data-path="images/Screenshot_2026-01-21_at_10.12.00_AM.png" />

4. **Import the List**

   * Click on Add people to list

## **Why the Activity Section Exists**

When engagement is automated, visibility becomes important.

The Activity page helps you:

* See exactly **what actions were taken**
* Track **likes vs comments**
* Review engagement by **team member**
* Stay confident and in control of automation

Think of it as an audit trail for your LinkedIn activity.

***

## **What You'll See in the Activity Page**

The Activity page shows:

* Posts you've **liked**
* Posts you've **commented on**
* Engagement done via:
  * Auto-engagement rules
  * Manual actions
* Engagement from:
  * Your personal account
  * Team members (if applicable)
