Quick answer: Buzz.ai is a Waalaxy alternative for teams that want LinkedIn, email and call in one campaign, with an AI SDR that writes messages, handles replies and books meetings. Waalaxy is a cloud LinkedIn prospecting tool. Its paid plans start at €19 per user/month (Pro, 300 invitations a month), and its Business plan adds cold email. Waalaxy's free Freemium version can't run automation. Buzz Core is $79/month per seat, billed monthly, and you can start with a free seat that has limited credits and a timed trial, with no card needed.
If you're comparing Waalaxy with other tools, you probably want to know three things: what Waalaxy costs, what its free plan really includes, and whether you need more than LinkedIn. This guide covers all three. It also covers Waalaxy vs lemlist, Waalaxy vs Expandi and Waalaxy vs Zopto. Every competitor fact links to the vendor's own site and was checked on October 1, 2026.

Is there a Waalaxy free plan?
Yes, but it doesn't automate anything. Waalaxy's help center describes the Freemium version as "completely free." It keeps your prospects and campaigns available, but you "can't use any automation features" and can only import prospects from a CSV file. Free trials of paid features require a credit card, start only when the account is created, and turn into a paid plan unless you cancel. (Waalaxy Help: subscriptions)
If you want to try automated LinkedIn outreach for free, Buzz offers a free seat with limited credits and a timed trial, and no card is needed.
