Turn your AI agent into a LinkedIn SDR
Don't rent a black-box AI SDR. Point your own agent - Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client - at the complete LinkedIn toolkit and let it prospect, personalize, and follow up, inside built-in safety limits.

}What is an AI SDR?
An AI SDR is software that does the work of a sales development rep: finding the right prospects, personalizing outreach, and following up to book meetings. Done well, it turns one person into the research-and-outreach output of a whole team.
There are two ways to run one. You can rent an autonomous platform that operates its own agent as a black box, or you can bring your own agent and give it the tools to do the job. The difference is control: an AI SDR is only as good as the agent behind it and how much say you have over how it works.
Crispy is the second approach. Your AI agent is the SDR; Crispy is the LinkedIn toolkit and safety layer it runs on.
Two Ways to Run an AI SDR
Both put an agent to work on your pipeline. Only one leaves you holding the wheel.
Autonomous platforms
- The vendor runs a black-box agent you can't see or steer
- Enterprise pricing, commonly several thousand dollars a month
- Reply quality and spam-flag risk are out of your hands
- Locked to their model, their prompts, their workflow
Examples: 11x, Artisan, Regie.
Bring your own agent (Crispy)
- Your own AI - Claude, Cursor, any MCP client - is the SDR
- You own the prompts, the ICP, and the whole workflow
- LinkedIn-native with built-in per-category safety limits
- 164 live MCP tools and 205 REST routes, at $49/seat/mo
Works with Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, n8n, and any MCP client.
How Your Agent Runs the Whole Loop
You describe the goal in plain language. The agent handles every step of the SDR workflow through Crispy.
Find the right people
Your agent runs real LinkedIn and Sales Navigator searches, then reads each profile to qualify the fit - not a static scraped list.
Personalize every message
Because the agent reads each prospect's background, it writes a genuinely specific opener instead of a mail-merge template.
Send inside safe limits
You set a daily cap and Crispy stops at it. Writes wait a few seconds after the last one. Campaigns spread their own sends across the day.
Handle replies in one inbox
Responses land in a unified inbox your agent can read, triage, and follow up on - the whole SDR loop, not just the first touch.
An Agent Moving Fast Is How Accounts Get Banned
An agent can fire hundreds of actions in an afternoon. You set a daily cap per action category and Crispy stops at it. Writes wait a few seconds after the last one, and campaigns spread their own sends across the day. Warm-up runs only when you enable it. These controls do not authorize the activity and do not guarantee against restriction. See how the safety layer works.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an AI SDR?
An AI SDR is software that does the sales development rep job: finding prospects, personalizing outreach, and following up to book meetings. There are two models. Autonomous platforms run their own agent for you as a black box. Bring-your-own-agent tools like Crispy give your AI - Claude or any MCP client - the LinkedIn toolkit so it does the work while you keep control of the prompts and targeting.
How much does an AI SDR cost?
Autonomous AI SDR platforms typically run from a couple of thousand to over ten thousand dollars a month, often with seat minimums and separate data packages. Crispy takes the bring-your-own-agent approach at $49/seat/mo, or $39/seat/mo billed annually ($468/yr): you supply the AI, Crispy supplies the LinkedIn tools and the safety layer.
Do AI SDRs actually work?
Results vary widely. Independent comparisons have found autonomous platforms often trail an experienced human SDR on cost per qualified meeting, while the best results come from a tightly defined ICP and an agent you can steer. Control over the agent and targeting matters more than the brand name, which is exactly the case for bringing your own agent.
Can I use Claude as an AI SDR?
Yes. Connect Claude (or Cursor, ChatGPT, n8n, or any MCP-compatible client) to Crispy and it can search LinkedIn, qualify prospects by reading profiles, write personalized outreach, and manage replies - all inside built-in safety limits. You describe the goal in natural language; the agent runs the SDR workflow.
Is running an AI SDR safe for my LinkedIn account?
It can still be restricted. You set a daily cap and Crispy stops at it. Writes wait a few seconds after the last one, and campaigns spread their own sends across the day. Warm-up runs only when you enable it. LinkedIn's User Agreement section 8.2 prohibits unauthorized automation. These controls do not guarantee against restriction.
Run LinkedIn workflows from the AI client you already use.
Create your account, connect LinkedIn, create an API key, then add Crispy to your client. Review the docs for supported workflows and safety controls.
