An Engage AI Alternative for Writing LinkedIn Comments
If you want AI help writing LinkedIn comments, CannerAI's Chrome extension drafts a reply from the post you're reading or inserts one of your saved replies, and you post it yourself. It's free to install and also works on X.
As of September 2026, Engage AI's pricing page sells its Engagement Community ($50/month), not a comment-writing plan.
Why creators leave Engage AI
Engage AI's pricing page now lists its Engagement Community: $50/month for individuals and $250/month for groups, with no free trial. It doesn't show a price for the AI comment extension, so check inside the app before you rely on it. Engage AI launched in 2023 as a Chrome extension for AI comments, under the name Engage AI by FILT Pod. This page breaks down what changed for Engage AI users who switched: pricing, a step-by-step migration guide, and the specific CannerAI features that replace everything you're giving up.
Why LinkedIn® creators are leaving Engage AI
You're not alone. These are the most common frustrations - and exactly what CannerAI was built to solve.
It's hard to tell what the comment tool costs
Engage AI's pricing page now lists its Engagement Community: $50/month for individuals and $250/month for groups, with no free trial. It doesn't show a price for the AI comment extension, so check inside the app before you rely on it.
Free to install, clear upgrade
CannerAI's extension is free. The Free plan has monthly limits on AI replies and saved replies. Creator ($9/month, 7-day trial) removes both limits and adds post scheduling.
See CannerAI pricing →Engage AI's website now leads with a paid engagement community
Engage AI launched in 2023 as a Chrome extension for AI comments, under the name Engage AI by FILT Pod. Its site now leads with a community where members comment on each other's posts during scheduled sessions.
A tool for your own comments
CannerAI doesn't sell engagement from other members. It helps you write your own comments faster, and you decide what gets posted.
Chrome extension →AI comments can all sound the same
A comment written from the post alone tends to come out polite and generic. People notice, and a run of them can make a profile look automated.
Replies that start from your words
Type a few words of what you want to say and CannerAI builds the reply from your draft plus the post's text and images. Or skip AI and insert a reply you wrote and saved earlier.
Canned responses →Automated commenting breaks LinkedIn's rules
LinkedIn's User Agreement bans bots and other unauthorized automated methods for commenting on, liking or sharing posts. A tool that posts comments for you puts your account at risk.
Nothing is posted without you
CannerAI puts the text in the comment box. You read it, edit it and press post. The extension never posts a comment on its own.
How CannerAI handles security →A comment tool doesn't write your posts
Comments help people find you, but your own posts do most of the work. With a comment-only tool you still need something else for writing and scheduling posts.
Posts and comments in one account
The same CannerAI account drafts LinkedIn and X posts in your voice, turns a screenshot or YouTube video into a post, and schedules it through official APIs.
Content creation →Everything Engage AI should have been
One platform. Every LinkedIn® content capability you need - built specifically for creators who take LinkedIn® seriously.

When staying with Engage AI makes sense
CannerAI isn't the right switch for everyone. These are good reasons to keep Engage AI.
You want other people commenting on your posts
That is what Engage AI's Engagement Community sells: members leave comments on your posts over several days. CannerAI doesn't offer anything like it.
You manage many client accounts
Engage AI's Group plan ($250/month) covers unlimited sub-accounts. CannerAI's Creator plan covers one LinkedIn and one X account, and its Teams plan is not open yet.
You depend on a specific Engage AI feature
CannerAI's extension covers saved replies, AI replies and screenshot-to-post. If your routine relies on something else, test CannerAI on the Free plan before you switch.
How to switch from Engage AI to CannerAI
Most users complete the full switch in under an hour. Here's exactly what to do.
List the replies you reuse
Look through your recent comments and copy the lines you type again and again, such as thank-yous, intros and answers to common questions.
Install the CannerAI extension
Add it from the Chrome Web Store and sign in to a free CannerAI account. No card needed.
Save your common replies
Add them as canned responses and tag them. They appear in LinkedIn and X comment boxes, ready to insert in one click.
Try an AI reply on a real post
Open a post, type a few words of your point and click Generate with AI. Edit the draft until it sounds like you, then post it.
Decide on Creator later
If you hit the Free plan's limits or want to schedule posts too, Creator is $9/month with a 7-day trial.
Common questions from Engage AI users switching to CannerAI
If you want AI help with your own comments, CannerAI's Chrome extension drafts replies from the post and inserts saved ones on LinkedIn and X. It's free to install, and you post each comment yourself.
As of September 2026, Engage AI's pricing page lists its Engagement Community at $50/month (Individual) and $250/month (Group), with no free trial. It doesn't show a separate price for the comment extension.
LinkedIn bans bots and unauthorized automated methods for commenting. Drafting a comment with AI, then reading and posting it yourself, is different from automated commenting. Tools that post for you carry the risk.
No. The extension puts an AI draft or a saved reply into the comment box. You edit it and click post yourself.
