# Expandi alternative: Every LinkedIn account you need, for one flat price.

**In short** 

Expandi and SalesMix both run multichannel LinkedIn sequences with conditions for sales teams and agencies. Expandi is an established LinkedIn automation tool priced per LinkedIn account, with an MCP in beta per its website. SalesMix is API-first: every feature is a REST endpoint, sequences can be created as JSON, and AI agents work through a generally available MCP server with a human approval queue. Pick Expandi for a mature, UI-led tool; pick SalesMix if you automate outbound from code, Clay or AI agents.

## What SalesMix does differently

### Everything is an endpoint

Accounts, sequences, leads, conversations, approvals and analytics are all REST resources with an [OpenAPI spec](https://salesmix.com/openapi.json). If the app can do it, your code can too. [See the API](https://salesmix.com/api).

### Agents with a human checkpoint

The [SalesMix MCP server](https://salesmix.com/mcp) lets Claude, Cursor or your own agent build sequences and draft replies, which wait in Approvals until a person signs off.

### Unlimited accounts for one flat price

The [Unlimited plan](https://salesmix.com/agencies) covers unlimited LinkedIn accounts and client workspaces for one flat monthly price, from $1,000/mo for founding customers.
