Canonical page: https://depost.ai/features/linkedin-custom-feed

LinkedIn decides what you see. A custom feed in Depost AI shows only the posts from a list you built: prospects, customers, peers. Open it, reply with a draft in your voice, and every touch moves the relationship along.

**Custom LinkedIn feed:** A custom LinkedIn feed in Depost AI is a feed built from a list of people you choose, such as prospects, customers, or peers. It shows only their posts, with a reply drafted in your voice under each.

## Why it matters

The LinkedIn feed is ranked to keep you scrolling, so it shows whatever is getting reactions right now and buries the prospect who posted this morning. A custom feed flips that: you decide who belongs in it, and you see only their posts. Depost AI adds the part a feed alone cannot do: a reply drafted in your voice under each post, and a lead list that records every comment, DM, and connection, so warming a relationship is a habit, not a spreadsheet.

- **5.7×** more buyer responses with a warm introduction, per LinkedIn’s own data (source: LinkedIn Sales Solutions, 2026).
- **9 in 10** decision-makers are more receptive to outreach from companies that publish strong thought leadership (source: LinkedIn · Edelman, 2024).
- **0** actions taken for you. You comment, you connect, you send.

## How it works

1. **Build a list of people.** While you read LinkedIn, a post, a thread, or a profile, add the person to a list: prospects, customers, competitors, people you learn from. The list grows out of your own reading, one person at a time.
2. **Open the feed.** Open feed builds a feed from the list: only what those people posted, nothing the algorithm slipped in between.
3. **Reply, and the list keeps score.** A reply is drafted in your voice under each post. You edit and send it, and the person moves from new to engaging, to warm, to contacted, without you updating anything.

## What's in it

- **Feeds built from lists.** One list per purpose: prospects, customers, peers, competitors. Open any of them as a feed and see only what those people posted.
- **Added while you read.** A post, a comment thread, a profile: add the person to a list from wherever you found them, with tags and a star.
- **Stages that update themselves.** New, observing, engaging, warm, contacted, replied, accepted, won. A comment moves someone to engaging; five touches in two weeks make them warm; a DM makes them contacted.
- **Follow-ups you do not forget.** Filter by follow-up due, needs follow-up, or last touch, and the people who went quiet come back to the top.
- **Replies and DMs drafted, sent by you.** Under each post in the feed, a reply in your voice. Connection notes and DMs are drafted from what the person posted. Nothing is sent without you.
- **Every touch, on the record.** Likes, comments, replies, connection requests, and DMs are counted per person, theirs and yours, with the last touch dated. Open a name and the history is there.

## Questions people ask

### How do I create a custom feed on LinkedIn?

LinkedIn itself does not let you build one; you can only nudge its ranking. In Depost AI you connect LinkedIn, create a list, add people to it as you read, and open the list as a feed. That feed shows only their posts.

### Is the feed chronological?

Yes. Open feed shows the latest posts from the people on the list, newest first, with nothing ranked in between. The home feed on LinkedIn is ranked; a list is the only way to see exactly who you chose, in order.

### Is this an engagement pod or automation?

Neither. Nobody is obliged to engage with you, and nothing engages for you. The feed shows you the posts; you decide what to say, and you say it.

### How is this different from following someone or ringing the bell?

Following hands the person to the algorithm; the bell sends notifications you will mute by Wednesday. A list is yours: open it and what those people posted is there, with nobody else in between.

### Where do my leads live?

In lead lists inside each brand, with a stage, tags, last touch, follow-up dates, and the count of likes, comments, replies, and DMs on both sides.

### Can my team work from the same feed?

Lists belong to the brand, so everyone with access to that brand in your workspace sees the same feed and the same stages.

### Is it safe for my LinkedIn account?

Yes. Nothing here automates actions on LinkedIn. Reading, commenting, connecting, and messaging happen from your own session, by you.

### Does this work for X, Reddit, and Threads?

The feed is a LinkedIn feature. Replies on X, Reddit, and Threads are drafted the same way, and each has its own page.
