Reply Ghost - LinkedIn drafts in your voice. Zero automation.

by•
Reply Ghost is a Chrome extension that writes LinkedIn posts, replies and comments in a sidebar, in your voice. It never posts, clicks or types for you. Nothing is sent to LinkedIn and nothing on the page is touched, so there is no automation to detect. You copy the draft you like and paste it yourself. Train it on 20 to 50 of your own posts and the generic AI voice goes. Also includes 50 post structures and a pattern analyser that turns a post into a template. Free tier: 5 drafts, no signup.

Hi Product Hunt, maker here. I built Reply Ghost after watching people get their LinkedIn accounts restricted for using automation tools. The pattern was always the same: the tool clicked buttons and posted on their behalf, LinkedIn noticed behaviour no human produces, and the account paid for it. So the design rule was: the extension is not allowed to act. It drafts text in a sidebar and stops. Copying and pasting is deliberately left to you. That one decision removes the entire category of risk, and it is verifiable. The manifest requests three permissions (storage, context menus, active tab) plus one host permission for linkedin.com so the sidebar can appear there. There is no cookies permission. Network requests go only to my own backend, and only when you press a button. The other thing I cared about is voice. Generic AI text is easy to spot and worse than writing nothing. Paid tiers train a voice profile on 20 to 50 of your own posts, and store a derived style summary rather than your posts. Things it deliberately does not do: post for you, schedule, auto-comment, predict engagement, or invent quotes and sources. Pricing: free tier with 5 drafts a month and no signup, then GBP 9, 19 and 49 a month. I will be here all day. The most useful thing you can tell me is where a draft sounded like AI. That is the bug I care most about.

Love that it stays out of LinkedIn entirely, no DOM touching, no sketchy automation. That kind of restraint on an AI writing tool is rare and shows real respect for platform rules.

 Thank you. The restraint was not free though, and that is worth being honest about.

Not acting makes for a much worse demo. Every competitor can show a clip where the tool posts something and the user does nothing. Mine ends with you copying text to your clipboard, which is not a thrilling gif. I am fairly sure that costs me installs.

What I get in exchange is a claim that can be checked rather than trusted. Three permissions, no cookies permission, and network requests only to my own backend and only when a button is pressed. Anyone sceptical can confirm that in about a minute. For a tool people run on an account their income depends on, that felt like the better trade.

The copy-paste workflow is clever, especially since nothing actually touches LinkedIn. Trained it on a few of my old posts and the draft in my voice was close enough that I only tweaked a line or two.

 Thank you, and sorry for the slow reply, which is a poor look given I said I would be here all day.

The part I want to dig into is the line or two you tweaked. That is the actual product and it is the bit I cannot see from my end. Were they the opening hook, the closing line, or something in the middle? In my own testing the closing line is where it still reaches for a rhetorical question I would never write.

If you can remember roughly what you changed, that is the most useful thing anyone has told me so far.
