LiGo Reviews

I got this as i wanted a Taplio alternative, but as someone else pointed out, you can't schedule the posts unless you pay extra, plus, the comments felt a little too wordy and contrarian, and not the sort of thing i'd post. I've been using ChatGPT to generate posts for me, and it works, so i'll be going back to that.

I'm not very skilled with LinkedIn, so I wanted a tool to simplify my usage, and LiGo has really impressed me.

I was genuinely surprised by how deeply and effectively LiGo integrates into the LinkedIn platform. This integration has made posting easy, enabling me to explore new inspirations and topics effortlessly. It's fantastic for keeping my content fresh and engaging without feeling like a chore.

But where LiGo truly shines, in my opinion, is its commenting capability. This feature is nothing short of excellent! The software automatically generates comments on other people's posts, and honestly, the quality is astounding. These aren't just generic, canned responses; they are intelligent and thought-provoking. LiGo impressively maintains impartiality by producing conflict-free comments, encouraging positive and constructive discussions.

On top of all this, the interface is incredibly friendly and intuitive.

I'm a self confessed LinkedIn junkie. I use it daily for a few hours a day and give them a wheelbarrow load of money annually for my recruiting business. LinkedIn Recruiter Professional isn't cheap. With close to 20,000 connections I'd like to think that this review is meaningful.

I struggle to publish on LinkedIn so it's always been there and hasn't really been a revenue generator, until now I think. I'm genuinely excited about not only where this product is but also where it can go. I think I've bought maybe 5 or so LinkedIn tools and been disappointed.

So there's the context, now the review.

1. I used to write copy for a living, my company and I have a very distinct brand voice, I'm a tough audience. While the AI generates good copy, it still needs editing. That's not a complaint, that's expected. But it gets amazingly close. Nowadays I expect to pull it onto Word and edit but to give you an idea, i just edited 4 posts in maybe 10 minutes max. I also use unicode characters quite a bit and not sure, but it seems to have learned that in wha I'm doing now. I tested it by pulling in a few writers who do humorous blogs but it seems to continue to not have a sense of humour, thar's ok, none of them do.
2. As Junaid has repeatedly said, it's not a scheduler, LinkedIn's TOS don't allow it I don't think. We all use a calendar anyway, if you need help setting it up to remind you, use it. Testing of LinkedIn' algorithm has shown that if you post you should engage for a while first as that seems to positively impact the post's reach. I can't risk my profile being sent to the naughty corner.
3. Contrary to some other reviews, I love the detail in the posting metrics.
4. The use of credits seems to be a little random and hard to understand so I accidentally burned through them on Day One while I was setting up. Junaid gave me a credit but when I saw how much they were I should have just paid (no Junaid, you're not getting your 20 bucks back). It's pitifully cheap. $1 per 10 posts ideas which should give you 2-3 posts.
5. Content Themes is brilliant. It's time consuming to write to and set up but that's where the goodness in the post suggestions and writing comes in. GIGO is truly the motto here. Don't do it. Biggest criticism is that when you get a suggestion it seems to go to the General Theme suggestion even when I'm inside the Actual theme itself. Again, it may be a combo of me and the UI not talking to each other.
6. I'm only using it for my page right now. I really can't see or where you can add another Page or your company page. At the speed at which I can generate usable copy I'd be interested in doing that. For me it's easy as it's the same voice but not sure how agencies would do it with a completely different company and person as their client.
7. I haven't used the Chrome extension and not sure I will, that's my opportunity to actually engage as the carbon based body.
8. Overall, exceptionally pleased with it, they don't sail close to the wind with LinkedIn's TOS, writing is absolutely brilliant, analytics are tremendously helpful, the concept of Themes is the biggest winner for me. Will it do absolutely everything? No. But then again if you purchase any tool to do that then it will always fail to make you happy.

Buy it.

I have an AppSumo addiction and it's important to acknowledge this problem. While many pieces of software disappear after a year, Ligo is so good that I hope it lasts. If you want to create meaningful posts and streamline your workflow, this is an invaluable tool.

I bought Ligo at the tier two level and tested it out. It has strong potential if you’re looking for a tool that generates natural, authentic LinkedIn content. A big plus is the ability to customize outputs to match aspects of your writing style.

Ligo produces a lot of useful ideas with compelling titles, and the customization options are easy to work with. I especially like the voice feature, which lets you give spoken feedback and adjust content quickly.

On the downside, I’d like more options, such as adding links or choosing between different AI models. Some of the copy still feels a little “AI-structured,” though better than most tools. Scheduling is an add-on, and the comments feature didn’t quite deliver—it works, but still reads somewhat artificial.

In the end, I requested a refund because I already use other tools, like Perplexity and ChatGPT, that offer more advanced customization for my needs. Still, for someone seeking an affordable, improving platform to scale LinkedIn engagement, Ligo is one of the best options out there and worth trying.
