What Follow is
Follow is a LinkedIn scraping tool in the B2B go-to-market stack. In the vendor's own words: “Extract LinkedIn Post Likers.” Put plainly, a tool in this category extracts profiles, companies and search results out of LinkedIn into a list you own.
Where it sits in an outbound stack
Most outbound stacks are four layers: the data that decides who you talk to, the channel that carries the message, the writing that earns a reply, and the system of record that remembers what happened. Follow sits in the LinkedIn scraping layer. Tools beside it are worth comparing on coverage and price; tools in the other layers are worth wiring to it rather than replacing it with.
Using Follow with M for Mercury
Follow works the same channel Mercury does, so the question is usually pacing rather than features. Mercury runs LinkedIn outreach across every sender on the account, holds each one inside the daily and rolling weekly limits LinkedIn tolerates, and halts a sender the moment the network pushes back — the part that decides whether an account survives a quarter of outbound. If you already run Follow, the comparison worth making is per-sender safety limits, what happens to a journey when a sender is restricted, and whether replies from every sender land in one inbox.
