Draftly targets regular LinkedIn creators with a promise of volume: generate posts, schedule them at the best times, make carousels and, above all, draft comments on other people's posts. Their pricing lists a free plan with five posts a month, a Starter plan at $19 and a Pro plan at $49, with a card required at checkout.
The strategy behind Draftly is well known and it works: commenting on posts from the accounts that matter in your market makes you visible to their audience.
Their tool writes draft replies that you approve one click at a time, with no bulk actions and no background automation, by their own description.
Kast comes at the same idea from the other end. Instead of commenting on other people's posts, you capture the people who commented, on your post or a competitor's, with their job title and company, and you write to them yourself.
