I stumbled on this while testing Extrovert's new DM feature.
Here's how it works:
You feed the system YOUR context:
Your writing style
Your value proposition
Your typical objections
Your conversation templates
Then when someone accepts your connection request or you comment on their post, the AI generates a DM suggestion.
But here's the key part.
You review it. Tweak it. Approve it. Send it.
The AI doesn't send anything automatically.
It just saves you from staring at a blank message box thinking "what should I say to this person?"
Why this changes the game?
Remember that commenting-to-DM framework everyone talks about?
Comment on someone's post, then reach out in DMs?
Most people do the first part.
Then they never follow up.
That's leaving money on the table.
Because the real conversation happens in the DMs, not the comments.
But following up with everyone who engages with you is exhausting.
Until now.
Here's what it looks like in practice
Let's say someone posts about AI vendors hurting innovation.
Old way: You comment, then manually craft a DM referencing their post.
New way: You comment, the system suggests a DM based on their post context and your writing style.
Example suggestion:
"That bit about spending Saturday decommissioning tools stuck with me. There's something oddly grounding about clearing out systems you've outgrown. What usually tells you it's time to let a platform go?"
You review it. Maybe make it shorter. Maybe add a joke. Then send.
Takes 30 seconds instead of 5 minutes.
And it still sounds like you.
The part everyone misses
This only works if you:
Have a clean prospect list (people who actually match your offer)
Feed the system your authentic voice
Review and customize each message before sending
The AI is a time-saver, not a replacement.
You're still in control.
You're still building real relationships.
You're just not wasting 3 hours writing 47 messages from scratch.
What I learned from this
Automation isn't the enemy.
Lazy automation is.
The goal isn't to remove the human element.
It's to remove the repetitive thinking that drains your time without adding value.
When I shifted to this approach:
My reply rate went from 8.5% to 23%
I saved 6-8 hours per week
My messages still sounded like me
My calendar filled with qualified calls
Because I was spending less time thinking "what should I say" and more time thinking "how can I help this specific person."
Reality?
If you're still writing every DM from scratch, you're either:
Not doing enough outreach to matter
Burning yourself out trying to scale manually
Neither path gets you where you want to go.
The system I use now inside my agency combines:
Intent-based prospecting (finding the right people)
Strategic commenting (warming them up)
AI-assisted DMs (starting conversations efficiently)
Human-led conversion (closing the deal)
It's how we help clients book 2-5 qualified calls per week without spending their entire day on LinkedIn.
If you're a B2B founder or solopreneur who wants to turn your LinkedIn presence into predictable revenue without sacrificing your entire day to DMs and outreach...
Book a call with us, and we offer a full done-for-you service by implementing your whole ecosystem on LinkedIn (prospecting + commenting + outreach + content) so you as founder can focus only on closing people with relevant calls we bring to you on the table.
(We include Extrovert FREE setup in case we start working together )
Power to you,
