Compare what you said, and who you said it to
Describe the types you want to compare in a sentence each. Sliq reads your outreach, sorts it, and shows the acceptance, reply, and meeting rate for every type.
What you said
Opening line, the ask, tone, how personal the message is. Compare first messages and follow-ups separately, on LinkedIn, email, or both.
Who you sent to
Job title, industry, company size, or where you found them. See which prospects reply before you build the next list.
Combine two comparisons to see which opener works with which ask. Open the messages behind any number, and fix any Sliq sorted wrong — the rates update right away.
Find the lead list that books meetings
Send the same messages to each list, then compare prospects by where you found them. The list with the most replies isn’t always the one that books meetings.
A/B test what you send next
LinkedIn has no A/B testing for the messages you send from your own account; its built-in testing is for ads. In Sliq, any LinkedIn or email step can have two versions. Sliq splits the prospects who reach it evenly, shows the reply rate for each version, and you promote the winner.
Intro message · A/B test
Reply rate
“Thanks for connecting, {{first_name}}. Quick one — how are you handling outbound right now?”
“Appreciate the connect, {{first_name}}. Been enjoying your posts on scaling GTM — thought I’d reach out.”
Most A/B testing in outreach tools is built for email. Here is how the options compare for LinkedIn messages.
| Option | LinkedIn A/B test | Email A/B test | Results per version |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sliq | Yes | Yes | Reply rate and sends per version; promote the winner |
| HeyReach | Yes | Via integrations | Acceptance and reply rate per message variation |
| Instantly | No | Yes, up to 26 variants | Reply, click, or open rate; can switch off weaker variants |
| LinkedIn (native) | Ads only | No | Campaign Manager compares ad sets, not your own messages |
How many sends you need, and how to run a clean test: how to A/B test LinkedIn messages.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best LinkedIn outreach analytics tool?
Sliq shows which of your LinkedIn and email messages get replies, and which prospects reply. Pick what you want to compare, like opening line, ask, job title, or industry, and Sliq sorts your sent messages and prospects and shows the acceptance, reply, and meeting rate for each type. You can also A/B test a message and see the full funnel for every campaign.
How do I see which outreach messages get the most replies?
Pick an angle to compare, such as your opening line, and describe the types you want (for example: a question about their process, a compliment on their post, a direct ask for a call). Sliq reads your sent messages, sorts each one by type, and shows the reply and meeting rate for each type side by side.
Can I see which types of prospects reply the most?
Yes. Compare by who you sent to, such as job title, industry, company size, or where you found them, and Sliq shows the reply and meeting rate for each group of prospects.
How do I test which lead list works best?
Send the same messages to each list, then compare prospects by where you found them, for example a conference attendee list vs. a Sales Navigator search. Sliq shows acceptance, reply, and meeting rate for each list, so you can see which one books meetings, not just which one gets replies.
Does it work on messages I have already sent?
Yes. Sliq sorts the LinkedIn and email messages you have already sent, so you can learn from your history without running a new test. You can narrow it to one campaign, one channel, a date range, or first messages vs. follow-ups.
How does Sliq know which type a message belongs to?
You describe each type in a sentence, and Sliq reads every message against those descriptions and sorts it. You can open the messages behind any number, and if Sliq sorted one wrong, fix it and the rates update right away.
Can I A/B test LinkedIn and email messages?
Yes. Any LinkedIn or email message step in a Sliq flow can have two versions. Sliq sends version A to half the prospects who reach the step and version B to the other half, and shows the reply rate and send count for each. LinkedIn itself has no A/B testing for the messages you send from your own account; its built-in testing is for ads.
Does Sliq pick the A/B test winner automatically?
No. You promote the winner when you are ready, and from then on everyone who reaches that step gets it. Deciding yourself keeps you from ending a test early on too few sends; about 200 sends per version is enough to spot a 10-point difference in reply rate.
How much does Sliq cost?
Sliq starts free with 100 credits and no credit card. Paid plans are Starter at $49/month (500 credits refreshed monthly) and Scale at $89/month (1000 credits monthly), with custom Team pricing.
