AI personalization
AI-written LinkedIn messages, one lead at a time
Templates make every message sound the same. In Updraft, each step of a sequence can be an AI prompt instead. The AI reads the lead's profile details and writes that step for that person, following your instructions about tone, length and what to ask.
Where AI is used
- Connection request notes, kept within LinkedIn's 300-character limit
- The first message after someone accepts
- Each follow-up, written with the earlier messages in mind
- Lead qualification: imported leads are scored against your ideal customer profile, and anyone who does not fit waits in a review inbox with the reason
You stay in control
You write the prompt for every step, so the AI follows your positioning rather than a generic script. A Preview button shows what it would write for a real lead before the campaign starts.
You can mix the two approaches: a template for the connection note, and AI prompts for the messages, or the other way round. Templates can use any column from your CSV.
Templates or AI: which to use
| Template | AI prompt | |
|---|---|---|
| Wording | Exactly what you wrote, with fields filled in | Written fresh for each lead from your instructions |
| Best for | Short notes and offers that must be worded precisely | Openers and follow-ups that should reference the person |
| Setup | Write the message once | Write the instructions once, then preview a few leads |
Questions
- Does the AI send messages without me checking them?
- Once a campaign is running, yes: that is what makes it automatic. Use Preview on a few leads before you start, and adjust the prompt until you are happy with what it writes.
- What does the AI know about each lead?
- The profile details that come in with the lead, such as name, job title, company and country, plus any extra columns from your CSV.
- Is AI included in the price?
- Yes. AI messages and AI qualification are included in every plan.
