What is HippoBox?

HippoBox is a privacy-first LinkedIn inbox management tool. It helps you organise LinkedIn messages, follow up with leads, manage connections and followers, save snippets, and work toward inbox zero from a cleaner command centre than the native LinkedIn inbox.

Message content stays in your browser's local storage. Our servers are designed for account access, billing, tags, reminders, snippets, and sync metadata - not reading or storing your LinkedIn conversation content.

Built for people who live in LinkedIn DMs, but do not want their inbox living in their head.

HOW IT COMPARES

HippoBox vs the native LinkedIn inbox

LinkedIn is built for browsing. HippoBox is built for processing messages, managing relationships, and remembering who needs the next reply.

Native LinkedIn

  • Messages mixed with distractions and feed behaviour
  • No practical custom tagging system for DMs
  • Weak follow-up reminders for relationship workflows
  • Hard to separate new connections, followers, and old conversations

HippoBox

  • Focused LinkedIn inbox zero workflow
  • Custom tags, snippets, keyboard shortcuts, and reminders
  • Network view for recent connections and previously contacted people
  • Message content stored locally in your browser

Why Hippo? 🦛

We didn't build HippoBox to be another automation tool. We built it because we were tired of losing great opportunities inside LinkedIn's native inbox.

We realized that while we were out living our lives, our LinkedIn inboxes were becoming graveyards of forgotten conversations. We missed messages from potential partners, forgot to reply to recruiters, and lost track of friends.

We wanted a tool that felt less like a spreadsheet and more like a focused workspace: tags, reminders, snippets, recent connections, and fast replies, without storing your message content on our servers.

That's HippoBox.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know

How does the auto-sync work?
HippoBox uses a Chrome extension to process your LinkedIn inbox in your browser. When you receive a LinkedIn message, it can appear in HippoBox. When you reply in HippoBox, the extension sends that reply through LinkedIn.
Is this safe for my LinkedIn account?
HippoBox is designed for manual inbox management, not spam automation. It helps you organise, search, tag, and reply to messages you already have access to in LinkedIn.
Does it work on mobile?
Currently, HippoBox is optimized for desktop use. We're working on mobile support, but for now, you'll get the best experience on your laptop or desktop computer.
What happens to my data?
Your LinkedIn message content is stored locally in your browser. Our servers store account details, billing state, tags, reminders, snippets, and message IDs needed for sync, but not the content of your LinkedIn conversations. We do not sell your data.
Who is HippoBox for?
HippoBox is for anyone who treats LinkedIn DMs as a work inbox: founders, recruiters, creators, consultants, agency owners, and sales teams who need a lightweight LinkedIn CRM, DM organiser, and follow-up management tool.
Where is HippoBox based?
HippoBox is built in London. We design the product with UK and European privacy expectations in mind: LinkedIn message content stays local in your browser, and our servers avoid storing the content of your conversations.
