ChillRefer is an AI-powered LinkedIn referral automation platform priced at $99/month. It helps job seekers find the right people at their target companies, send personalized connection requests, run a 5-step follow-up sequence, and manage replies — turning cold applications into warm referrals at companies like Google, Meta, Stripe, and Amazon.

How does ChillRefer find referrers at companies?

ChillRefer's AI searches LinkedIn for employees at your target company who are most likely to provide referrals — including hiring managers, current team members, and job posters. It analyzes job titles, seniority, mutual connections, and recent activity to surface the best 2-5 contacts per role, then automates personalized connection requests on your behalf.

How much does ChillRefer cost?

ChillRefer Pro costs $99 per month. The plan includes unlimited LinkedIn job search, AI referral hunting at any company, automated outreach with 5-step drip sequences, smart follow-ups, real-time tracking, AI Copilot chat assistant, and Advocate Kit generation. There's a 14-day refund policy and you can cancel anytime.

Is ChillRefer safe to use with LinkedIn?

Yes. ChillRefer uses Unipile's official LinkedIn integration with built-in safety limits — default 20 invites per day and 40 messages per day — well under LinkedIn's daily caps. It includes randomized delays between actions, warm-up mode (auto-likes posts before outreach), automatic pausing when limits are approached, and auto-withdraw of stale invites to keep your account in good standing.

Can I cancel my ChillRefer subscription anytime?

Yes, you can cancel your subscription at any time from your account settings. Your Pro access continues until the end of the current billing period. ChillRefer also offers a 14-day money-back refund.

Does ChillRefer work for jobs outside the US?

Yes. ChillRefer works globally wherever LinkedIn operates. Users actively land referrals in the US, Europe, India, UAE, Singapore, Canada, Australia, and beyond. The AI adapts outreach messages to be culturally appropriate for different markets.

How is ChillRefer different from cold-applying or LinkedIn Premium?

Cold-applying gets you a 1-2% callback rate. LinkedIn Premium just gives you InMail credits and search filters — you still have to write every message yourself. ChillRefer is purpose-built for one outcome: warm referrals. It finds the right people, writes personalized messages, runs full follow-up sequences, classifies replies by intent, and even gives the referrer a one-page link (Advocate Kit) to refer you in 30 seconds. Most users land their first referral conversation within a week.

What is an Advocate Kit?

When someone agrees to refer you, ChillRefer generates a public one-page link (chillrefer.com/kit/yourname-company) containing your pitch, resume, the role you're being referred for, and a ready-to-paste email or WhatsApp message they can send to their hiring manager. It removes all friction — instead of asking the referrer to write your pitch, they just forward your link.

Does ChillRefer use my LinkedIn password?

No. ChillRefer connects via Unipile's hosted LinkedIn OAuth — your password is never shared with ChillRefer or stored anywhere on our servers. You can disconnect at any time.

Who built ChillRefer?

ChillRefer was built by Shubham Maheshwari at Knowfinity Academy LLP, based in Bengaluru, India. The platform launched in 2025 and has helped 500+ job seekers land referrals at top companies including Google, Stripe, Meta, Microsoft, Amazon, Databricks, NVIDIA, and Rubrik.

Headline is set. Now what?

A great headline alone won't get you hired.

Recruiters read 100 profiles a day. The job seekers landing offers in 2026 aren't the ones with prettier headlines — they're the ones getting warm referrals from current employees at their target companies. ChillRefer automates that, end-to-end.
