We're Building the Future of Sales
Handshake was born from a simple frustration: LinkedIn outreach doesn't scale. We built the platform we wished existed – one that combines power, safety, and simplicity.
Our Story
In 2021, our founders were running a fast-growing B2B agency, manually managing dozens of LinkedIn accounts for clients. The existing tools were either too risky (getting accounts banned) or too limited (couldn't handle real scale).
We knew there had to be a better way. So we built Handshake – a platform that could safely automate LinkedIn outreach at any volume, with the unified inbox and team collaboration features that agencies actually need.
Today, Handshake powers outreach for thousands of sales teams, from solo founders to Fortune 500 companies. We've sent millions of connection requests, generated hundreds of thousands of conversations, and helped close countless deals.
But we're just getting started.
By the Numbers
