Comparison

Embers vs. Waalaxy

What is the difference?

Waalaxy is a Chrome extension that needs your browser running - and LinkedIn can detect it. Embers works completely independently: no extension, no login, no detection risk. While Waalaxy automates messages to strangers, Embers surfaces people who already engage with your content.
