PitchGhost Instant Actions extension

On this page

The extension links the LinkedIn and X accounts signed in to your browser, so you can act on Finds with them, and keeps those sessions fresh. It also adds a PitchGhost button to LinkedIn profiles and posts. Ghosts find posts without it, and Reddit accounts link through Reddit’s own sign-in.

Install the extension

The extension works in Chrome and other Chromium browsers. Firefox and Safari are not supported yet.

  1. Open the extension’s Chrome Web Store page.
  2. Click Add to Chrome and confirm.
  3. In PitchGhost, open Settings then Integrations and click Add or Settings on the LinkedIn or Twitter card.
  4. If the sheet still says Extension required, click Check again.

The sheet then lists the accounts signed in to the browser. Link them as described in Link your LinkedIn accounts or Link your X accounts.

Anyone in your company except the Billing role can install the extension, on an active plan. Only owners and admins can open Settings then Integrations, so they link their accounts and share them with Members.

How sessions stay fresh

The extension watches the LinkedIn and X session cookies in your browser. When a session changes, it updates the linked account, so you rarely need to click Refresh yourself.

The PitchGhost button on LinkedIn

A round PitchGhost button appears next to the person on LinkedIn profiles and posts. A dot on the button means one of your Ghosts already watches that person. Click the button to open its menu.

  • Add/Remove from Ghost adds the person to one of your LinkedIn user monitor Ghosts or removes them. Ghosts whose list comes from Smart Sync, Smart Search or Connections are greyed out, because their list is managed for you.
  • Create a new Ghost to monitor opens a new LinkedIn user monitor with this person filled in.
  • Get email address looks up the person’s verified work email. It is available on Pro and Expert and spends credits only when an email is found.

If the menu shows Sign in to PitchGhost or Pick a company in PitchGhost, click it, sign in to the app, and choose your company.

Hide or show the button

To hide the button on every LinkedIn page, open its menu and choose Hide this button, then Hide.

To bring it back, open the extension’s Options from your browser’s extensions menu and check Show the PitchGhost button on LinkedIn profiles and posts.

Remove the extension

Remove it from your browser’s extensions page. Accounts you already linked stay linked, but their sessions are no longer refreshed. When a session expires, the account shows a warning and cannot be used until you reinstall the extension and click Refresh. To stop PitchGhost using an account, disconnect it.
