Humanlinker
A French sales copilot that reads the person before it writes the email
Humanlinker is an AI sales copilot that researches prospects across 15-plus data providers, profiles them with DISC personality analysis, drafts hyper-personalized messages, runs multichannel campaigns across email, social, and phone, monitors buying signals, and prepares meeting briefs; it is sold self-serve from EUR 69 per month for a plan covering up to five users, sends from your own mailboxes, and exposes its research to Claude through an MCP server.
Overview
Humanlinker was founded in 2020 by Thibault Brioland and Regis Viarre, with roots in Montpellier and a base in Paris. It raised a EUR 2.5M seed round in 2022, appeared in Wavestone's 2025 Startup Radar, and has been working toward a Series A since. By the standards of this category it is small and unusually capital-efficient, which shows in a product that is narrow, opinionated, and priced for European small businesses rather than for American venture-funded sales floors.
The distinguishing feature is the personality layer. Humanlinker runs DISC profiling on prospects and uses it both to shape written outreach and to produce briefing material before a call, so a rep meeting a dominant, results-first buyer gets different guidance than one meeting a steady, relationship-first buyer. Whether DISC inference from public data is scientifically robust is a fair question to ask, and the answer is that it is directional rather than diagnostic. Used as a nudge toward a tone, it is genuinely useful; used as a personality verdict, it is overclaiming.
Everything else is the standard shape of this category done carefully: lead recommendations against an ICP, triple-validated email enrichment and phone lookups across more than fifteen providers, multichannel campaigns across email and social with reply analysis, buying signal and news monitoring, and integrations with HubSpot, Salesforce, Dynamics, Gmail, Outlook, Teams, and Slack. A recent addition, an MCP server for Claude, lets an AI assistant read Humanlinker's research directly, which is a more forward-looking integration than most competitors offer.
The pricing is where a small business should pay attention. Pro at EUR 69 a month supports one to five users, which is the most team-friendly entry price in this batch, but the allowances are annual rather than monthly: 200 AI credits a year and 200 email enrichments a year, with 800 contact recommendations a month. Additional credits are sold at EUR 30 per 500 emails and EUR 47 per 100 phone numbers. Above Pro the plan structure jumps to 50-plus users and custom pricing, so there is no middle tier for a fifteen-person sales team.
Best for
European small businesses and founder-led sales teams of two to five people who sell relationship-first, want research and personality context before every conversation, and already have healthy mailboxes to send from.
Not the right fit for
- High-volume cold senders: Humanlinker provisions no domains, no mailboxes, and no warmup, and its Pro plan connects only two email accounts.
- Teams that need monthly credit allowances rather than annual ones, since 200 AI credits and 200 enrichments a year run out fast under real use.
- Companies between six and fifty users, who fall into a gap between the five-user Pro plan and a Business tier aimed at 50-plus seats.
- Buyers who want DISC treated as evidence rather than as a tone suggestion; personality inference from public data is directional at best.
- Anyone wanting a hands-off autonomous agent, because this is explicitly a copilot that expects a human to send, meet, and close.
How it works
- 1
You connect your mailboxes (two email accounts and one social account on the Pro plan) and define an ICP. Humanlinker recommends contacts against it, up to 800 a month on Pro, drawing enrichment from more than fifteen data providers with triple email validation and separately metered phone lookups.
- 2
For each prospect the platform assembles context from public sources and runs a DISC personality read. That profile drives two outputs: the tone and framing of written outreach, and a briefing document a rep can read before a call.
- 3
Campaigns run across email, social channels, and phone steps, orchestrated from Humanlinker or from inside a connected CRM. Because sending goes through your own connected accounts, deliverability, domain health, and warmup remain your responsibility; Humanlinker sells personalization and research, not sending infrastructure.
- 4
Replies are analyzed to inform follow-up, and news monitoring surfaces buying signals on tracked accounts in real time. The Claude MCP server exposes the research layer to an external assistant, so a rep who works inside an AI assistant can pull Humanlinker's prospect context without switching tools.
Feature breakdown
25 features in 5 modulesPersonality and prospect intelligence
The layer that separates Humanlinker from a generic personalization tool.- DISC personality profiling
- Prospects are profiled against the DISC model from public signals, and the read shapes both message tone and call preparation. Treat it as a directional nudge, not a diagnosis.
- Meeting preparation briefs
- A briefing is generated in seconds before a call, combining company context, individual context, and the personality read.
- 360 degree account analysis
- Deeper account-level analysis is available on the higher tiers for teams selling into larger organizations.
- Personalized message generation
- Copy is drafted from researched context rather than merge fields, with the personality profile influencing framing and directness.
- Reply analysis
- Prospect responses are evaluated so follow-ups adapt to what the reply actually said rather than following a fixed ladder.
Data and enrichment
Fifteen-plus providers behind one interface, metered carefully.- Multi-provider enrichment
- More than fifteen data providers sit behind the enrichment layer rather than a single source, which improves coverage on European contacts specifically.
- Triple email validation
- Addresses are validated through multiple checks before use, reducing bounce risk without a separate verification vendor.
- Phone number enrichment
- Mobile lookups are metered separately, with top-ups sold at EUR 47 per 100 numbers.
- AI lead recommendations
- Up to 800 contact recommendations a month on Pro, generated against your ICP rather than requiring manual list building.
- Chrome extension
- Research and enrichment can be pulled from the browser while you are already looking at a prospect's profile.
Campaigns and channels
Multichannel execution from your own accounts.- Unlimited multichannel campaigns
- Campaign count is not capped on Pro; the constraints are credits, enrichments, and connected accounts rather than campaign volume.
- Email, social, and phone steps
- Sequences mix written outreach with social touches and call tasks, coordinated in one plan rather than across separate tools.
- Two email accounts and one social account on Pro
- This is the practical volume ceiling on the entry plan, and it is a deliberate constraint against spray-and-pray sending.
- Send from your own infrastructure
- Messages go through your connected Gmail or Outlook, so there is no warmup wait and no vendor-controlled sending domain, but also no deliverability safety net.
- In-CRM messaging
- Outreach can be initiated from within connected CRM systems so reps stay in the tool they already use.
Signals and monitoring
Knowing when a tracked account is worth contacting.- News monitoring on key accounts
- Real-time alerts when tracked accounts appear in the news, which is the practical trigger for a timely follow-up.
- Buying signal detection
- Public signals are surfaced against tracked accounts so outreach can be timed rather than scheduled arbitrarily.
- Smart ABM monitoring
- Account-based monitoring is a Business-tier capability aimed at teams working a defined named-account list.
- Job and role change tracking
- Contact records are kept current as people move, so lists decay more slowly than a static export.
Integrations and platform
Where Humanlinker fits in an existing stack.- CRM connectors
- HubSpot, Salesforce, and Microsoft Dynamics are supported, with a light HubSpot integration on the Pro plan and advanced CRM setup on Business.
- Claude MCP server
- A Model Context Protocol server exposes Humanlinker's research to Claude, letting an AI assistant read prospect context directly. Few competitors in this category ship anything comparable.
- Email and calendar connections
- Gmail, Outlook, Google Calendar, and Outlook Calendar connect for sending and meeting context.
- Teams and Slack
- Alerts and signals route into the channels where a small team already coordinates.
- Advanced API on Business
- Programmatic access is reserved for the Business tier, which starts at 50-plus users.
- Dedicated LLM options on Enterprise
- Dedicated model deployment and custom fine-tuning are advertised at the Enterprise tier, along with SSO and MFA.
Use cases
4 documentedFrench or European SMB founder selling relationship-first
The addressable market is a few thousand companies in France, Germany, and Spain, and American data tools have poor coverage of exactly those contacts.
Multi-provider enrichment weighted toward European data plus native multichannel campaigns produce usable contacts, and the EUR 69 plan covers the whole three-person team rather than charging per seat.
Two-person consulting practice preparing for high-value calls
Every meeting matters because there are only a handful a week, and walking in without knowing how the buyer likes to be approached costs deals.
Meeting briefs with a DISC read give each partner a specific read on tone and framing before the call, which is a better use of the tool than mass outreach.
Account-based team tracking twenty named accounts
The list is small enough that volume tooling is irrelevant, but nobody notices when a tracked account makes news or hires a relevant executive.
News monitoring and buying-signal alerts route into Slack, so outreach is triggered by an event rather than by a calendar reminder.
Rep who works inside an AI assistant
Research lives in one tool, drafting happens in Claude, and the copy-paste ritual between them wastes an hour a day.
The MCP server exposes Humanlinker's prospect research directly to Claude, so drafting happens where the rep already works, with the enriched context attached.
Pricing
from EUR 69 per month (Pro, 1 to 5 users)Self-serve subscription with annual AI credit and enrichment allowances, plus credit top-ups. Business and Enterprise are quoted for 50-plus users.
| Plan | Price | Includes |
|---|---|---|
| Pro | EUR 69 per month, 1 to 5 users |
The most team-friendly entry price in this category, but the AI and enrichment allowances are annual, not monthly. |
| Business | Custom annual billing, 50 or more users |
The jump from five users to fifty leaves mid-sized teams without a published option. |
| Enterprise | Custom annual billing, 50 or more users |
|
Add-ons
- Email credits (EUR 30 per 500 emails): The practical way to extend the annual enrichment allowance.
- Phone credits (EUR 47 per 100 numbers): Mobile numbers are metered separately from emails.
Billing notes
- Pro covers one to five users for a single fee, which is unusual: most competitors in this batch price per seat or restrict self-serve plans to one user.
- AI credits and email enrichments are annual allowances (200 each on Pro), not monthly, so a busy quarter can exhaust the year's inclusion.
- Top-ups are the intended release valve: EUR 30 per 500 emails and EUR 47 per 100 phone numbers.
- The vendor advertises a 20 percent saving for annual billing.
- Contact recommendations are metered monthly (800 on Pro), on a different clock from the annual credit allowances, which makes forecasting fiddly.
- Nothing in the price covers sending infrastructure; mailboxes, domains, and warmup are outside the product entirely.
Value assessment: For a small European team, EUR 69 a month covering up to five users is the best headline price in this batch, and the research quality per euro is high. The catch is the meter design: 200 AI credits and 200 enrichments a year is a small allowance for five people, and the real annual cost for an active team is the subscription plus several hundred euros of top-ups. Read Pro as a deep-research copilot for a handful of users doing considered outreach, not as a volume engine. At that job it is excellent value; at volume the top-up arithmetic quickly stops being cheap.
Strengths & limitations
Strengths
- EUR 69 a month covering up to five users is the most team-friendly entry price in the category, where single-seat self-serve plans are the norm.
- Enrichment draws on more than fifteen providers with triple email validation, and European contact coverage is better than US-built competitors typically manage.
- DISC personality profiling plus meeting briefs give reps something to use in the conversation, not just in the cold email, which is rare in this category.
- The Claude MCP server is a genuinely forward-looking integration that lets an external AI assistant read the research layer directly.
- Signals and news monitoring route into Slack and Teams, so timing-based outreach fits the way a small team already works.
- A 14-day trial with no credit card and real allowances (180 recommendations, 30 credits, 30 enrichments) makes evaluation cheap and honest.
- Capital-efficient and independent: a EUR 2.5M seed in 2022 and no subsequent mega-round means the product has had to earn revenue rather than buy growth.
Limitations
- AI credits and enrichments are annual rather than monthly allowances, and 200 of each on Pro is thin for a five-user team, so top-ups become the real cost.
- No sending infrastructure at all, and only two email accounts connectable on Pro, which caps volume by design.
- The plan ladder jumps from five users to fifty, leaving mid-sized teams to negotiate a Business quote with no published anchor.
- DISC inference from public data is directional rather than diagnostic, and the marketing presents it with more confidence than the method supports.
- Advanced API access, ABM monitoring, and 360 degree account analysis all sit on the 50-plus user tiers, so a small team gets the research but not the automation surface.
- The company is small and last raised in 2022, so roadmap velocity depends on a Series A that has been in progress for some time.
- Documentation and support are oriented to a European customer base; US buyers should confirm data coverage in their own market during the trial.
Head-to-head comparisons
4 alternativesHumanlinker vs Jeeva AI
from $0 (Free), then $95 per month (Growth)Jeeva has the bigger contact database and cheaper drafting, but every self-serve plan is a single seat. Humanlinker covers up to five users for EUR 69 and goes deeper on personality and meeting preparation. A small European team selling relationship-first should take Humanlinker; a solo US prospector needing sheer data volume should take Jeeva.
Full Humanlinker vs Jeeva AI comparisonHumanlinker vs Aomni
from $0 (Starter), then $300 per month (Pro)Both sell research rather than sending, but Aomni goes vertically deep on a single enterprise account with a thousand data points and account plans at $300 a month, while Humanlinker spreads across many prospects with personality reads at EUR 69 for five users. Pick Aomni for a handful of large strategic deals; pick Humanlinker for a steady flow of mid-sized ones.
Full Humanlinker vs Aomni comparisonHumanlinker vs Floqer
from $0 (Free), then $49 per month for 2,000 creditsFloqer is a workflow and enrichment engine you program, with credits metered per action and no opinion about how you sell. Humanlinker is an opinionated copilot with a fixed research and personalization method. Choose Floqer if you have someone who enjoys building GTM pipelines; choose Humanlinker if you want the research done for you out of the box.
Full Humanlinker vs Floqer comparisonHumanlinker vs lemlist
from $39/user/moLemlist is a European outreach platform built around sending: sequences, personalization, warmup, and a lead database, priced per seat. Humanlinker is the research and personality layer that assumes you already have somewhere to send from. Teams running real cold email volume want Lemlist; teams whose problem is knowing what to say to whom want Humanlinker, and plenty of European teams end up running both.
Full Humanlinker vs lemlist comparisonImplementation & onboarding
- Setup time
- An afternoon. Connect two mailboxes and a social account, define the ICP, and recommendations start arriving. There is no domain provisioning or warmup phase because the product does not send on your behalf from its own infrastructure.
- Learning curve
- Low for research and briefs, moderate for campaign design. The DISC output takes a little practice to use well: it is most useful as a hint about directness and pace, and least useful when treated as a fixed label.
- Onboarding
- Self-serve on Pro with a 14-day no-card trial. Business and Enterprise add a dedicated account manager, advanced CRM setup, workshops, and SLA-backed support, but require a quote and 50-plus users.
- Migration notes
- Contacts import conventionally and the Chrome extension makes ad hoc adoption easy alongside an existing stack. Because sending uses your own accounts, there is no deliverability lock-in and leaving costs you only the research subscription. Unused annual credits, however, do not follow you anywhere.
Platform, API & security

Frequently asked questions
10 questionsWhat is Humanlinker?
Humanlinker is an AI sales copilot built in France. It researches prospects across more than fifteen data providers, profiles them with DISC personality analysis, drafts personalized messages, runs multichannel campaigns across email, social, and phone, monitors buying signals, and produces meeting briefs before calls.
How much does Humanlinker cost?
The Pro plan is EUR 69 a month and covers one to five users, with 800 contact recommendations a month, 200 AI credits a year, 200 email enrichments a year, two email accounts, and one social account. Business and Enterprise are custom-quoted and aimed at teams of 50 or more. Extra credits cost EUR 30 per 500 emails and EUR 47 per 100 phone numbers.
Are the credits monthly or annual?
Annual, which is the most important detail on the pricing page. Pro includes 200 AI credits and 200 email enrichments per year, while contact recommendations are metered monthly at 800. For an active five-person team those annual allowances go quickly, so budget for top-ups and treat the subscription as a floor rather than a total.
Does Humanlinker send emails for me?
It runs campaigns through your own connected mailboxes, two of them on the Pro plan, plus one social account. It does not provision domains, sell mailboxes, or run a warmup program, so deliverability and domain reputation stay entirely with you. That makes it a poor fit for high-volume cold sending and a good fit for considered outreach from an established domain.
How seriously should I take the DISC personality analysis?
As a tone suggestion, not as evidence. Inferring a DISC profile from public data is directional: it can reasonably tell you whether to be brief and direct or warmer and more consultative, and that is genuinely useful before a first call. It cannot tell you who someone is, and the marketing frames it with more confidence than the method supports.
Is there a free trial?
Yes, 14 days with no credit card required, including one inbox, 180 contact recommendations, 30 AI credits, and 30 email enrichments. That is enough to judge data coverage in your market and the quality of the research output, which are the two things worth testing.
Can a team of ten use Humanlinker?
Not on a published plan. Pro tops out at five users and the next tier is aimed at 50 or more, so a ten-person team has to negotiate a Business quote without a public anchor to argue from. This gap is the sharpest structural limitation for a growing company.
How does the Claude MCP server work?
It exposes Humanlinker's prospect and account research through the Model Context Protocol, so Claude can read that context directly rather than requiring you to copy it across. For a rep who already drafts inside an AI assistant this removes the copy-paste step, and very few competitors in this category ship an equivalent.
Is Humanlinker better for European or American markets?
European, clearly. The enrichment stack, the language coverage, the pricing in euros, and the support orientation are all built for European selling, and contact coverage in France, Germany, Spain, and the Benelux countries is a genuine strength. US buyers should verify coverage in their own segment during the free trial rather than assuming parity.
Who owns Humanlinker?
It is an independent venture-backed company founded in 2020 by Thibault Brioland and Regis Viarre, headquartered in Paris with origins in Montpellier. It raised a EUR 2.5 million seed round in 2022 and has not publicly announced a subsequent round, so it is small, capital-efficient, and dependent on revenue rather than on fundraising.
Editorial verdict
Humanlinker is the sane European answer to a category full of American autonomy claims. It does not pretend to be a digital employee: it researches the prospect, tells you how they probably like to be approached, drafts something specific, runs the multichannel cadence, and prepares you for the meeting. For a two to five person team selling considered deals, EUR 69 a month covering the whole team is a genuinely good price, the European data coverage beats what US tools manage, and the Claude MCP server is the most forward-looking integration in this batch. Buy it with two things clear in mind. The credit allowances are annual, not monthly, so an active team will be topping up and the real cost is higher than the sticker. And it sends from your mailboxes only, so if your plan is cold volume you still need infrastructure this product does not sell. Use it where every conversation matters, not where the strategy is reach.
