Proxies

AutoReach routes each connected account's traffic through a proxy so your activity comes from a stable residential IP rather than a datacenter IP or your own home connection. Proxies are optional and are managed from the Proxies page in the dashboard.

Do I need a proxy?

A proxy is optional but recommended, especially for LinkedIn and Instagram, which are sensitive to IP changes and datacenter IPs. You can run AutoReach without one, but a stable residential IP reduces the chance of session disruptions and verification challenges.

You pick your proxy setup during onboarding, and you can change it at any time from the Proxies page.

Two ways to get a proxy

Managed proxy (we provide it)

  • An ISP residential static proxy provisioned through our provider.

  • Free during your free trial (we cover it), then $15/month per managed proxy if you do not cancel.

  • The $15/month is added to your subscription as a separate line item, starting after the trial.

  • One managed proxy can be shared across your LinkedIn, X, and Instagram accounts, or you can buy more than one and assign them separately.

Bring your own proxy (BYOP)

  • Free. Use a proxy you already have from any provider.

  • Enter the host, port, and (if required) username and password, then choose HTTP or SOCKS5.

  • AutoReach verifies the proxy can connect before saving it. If it cannot connect, you see an error and nothing is saved.

The Proxies page

Open Proxies from the sidebar. The page shows your proxy pool and which accounts are assigned to each proxy.

From here you can:

  • Add a bring-your-own proxy: enter the connection details, which are verified before saving.

  • Buy a managed proxy: pick a location. It is free during your trial, then adds the $15/month line item to your subscription after the trial.

  • Edit a bring-your-own proxy: update the connection details (re-verified on save).

  • Remove a proxy: see Removing a proxy below.

  • Assign a proxy to an account: point any LinkedIn, X, or Instagram account at a specific proxy in your pool.

Sharing vs dedicated

One proxy can serve all three of your accounts (LinkedIn, X, and Instagram), or you can give an account its own dedicated proxy by adding more proxies and assigning them. A shared residential proxy is fine for a single operator running one account per platform. If you run heavier volume, a dedicated proxy per account adds isolation.

Removing a proxy

You can remove any proxy, including the default one.

  • Accounts running on the removed proxy are detached and paused, since an account cannot run safely without a proxy. Assign them another proxy to resume.

  • If you remove a managed proxy, the underlying order is cancelled and your $15/month proxy charge drops by one unit. Remove all managed proxies and the monthly proxy charge is removed entirely.

  • If you remove the default proxy, another proxy in your pool is automatically promoted to default so newly connected accounts still have one to use.

Troubleshooting

"Proxy Connection Failed": open the Proxies page. For a bring-your-own proxy, re-check the host, port, and credentials and save again (this re-verifies it). For a managed proxy, contact support at hello@autoreach.tech.

An account is paused right after I removed its proxy: this is expected. Assign the account a proxy from the Proxies page, then resume it.
