Crypto pitches and “great post, check my profile” sitting under your Company Page updates – read by exactly the prospects you’re trying to impress. Automatically delete spam comments on LinkedIn instead, the moment they land, with nobody watching for them.
Automatically Delete Spam Comments on LinkedIn – Hands-Free

Supported platforms
Auto-moderation: Spam comments get deleted from your LinkedIn Pages without anyone opening LinkedIn
Set up an Auto-moderation rule once and spam is deleted from your Company Pages the moment it arrives, day and night, across every Page you run.
You don’t even need a keyword list – leave the triggers empty and the rule covers everything of that type. It won’t stop a comment being posted. The rule removes it before anyone scrolls past.
AI assistant: Catch the polite-sounding LinkedIn spam that no keyword list would ever flag
Here’s the LinkedIn problem: the spam is polite. It’s well-punctuated, it compliments your post, and then it pitches.
Your AI Assistant tags spam, hate speech and sentiment as comments come in, and Auto-moderation acts on those tags – so you’re not sitting there guessing which words a spammer will use next week. (They change them, constantly.)
Link and image filters: Delete LinkedIn comments that are nothing but a link or an attached image
Strip a LinkedIn spam comment down and it’s a link, dropped under your post to borrow your audience. So filter by what the comment carries – text only, a link, an image or a video. A rule that clears every link-only comment off your Pages takes about a minute to build, and then it just runs.
Social inbox: One customizable view of every comment, the ones the rules caught and the ones still waiting
Automation running doesn’t mean flying blind. The Social Inbox holds every comment from every Company Page in one view you can filter and arrange how you like – what Auto-moderation already deleted, right next to what’s still waiting for a person.
Reply, tag and assign the ones that deserve a real answer.
Social CRM: Check whether the person spamming your Page is actually a customer first
This is LinkedIn, so the person leaving a bad comment might be a client, a candidate or somebody’s CEO.
Open their Social CRM profile and you’ll see every conversation they’ve had with you, across platforms, plus whatever your team noted last time. (Ten seconds well spent before you delete anything.)
Moderation reports: Show your boss the number of spam comments nobody had to touch
The trouble with automation is that when it works, there’s nothing to see. Moderation reports show how much spam arrived, how much Auto-moderation removed by itself, and how quickly your team handled the rest – emailed weekly, monthly or quarterly, with your logo on them.
Stop reading your own comment section looking for spam
Here’s why our clients love NapoleonCat
Join businesses whose LinkedIn comment sections stay clean without anyone watching them.
NapoleonCat saves up to one-third of a full-time position. That’s time we would otherwise spend manually moderating thousands of comments each month using the Meta Business Suite, profile by profile and comment by comment. Time we can now use for growth. NapoleonCat is the best tool of its kind on the market, and it’s still constantly evolving and improving by introducing new AI features.
It’s hard to imagine our work without a tool that includes so many valuable features. It won’t be an overstatement when I say that NapoleonCat saves us multiple full-time positions that would be dedicated to just moderating comments or manually generating reports.
NapoleonCat gives us the full picture of social media interactions. It’s easier to pick up urgent threads that need taking immediate action. And with conversation history, it’s much easier to continue the work of another team member while they’re out of office.
We work with multiple clients, and with NapoleonCat, we don’t waste time switching between multiple software tools. We can also deliver reliable data from a single source. We tested other social media moderation and analytics tools before, but none of them lived up to what NapoleonCat delivers. They’re the best, and I personally love using the tool. 🙂
NapoleonCat is now an indispensable tool that we use for moderation and analytical purposes, as well as content publishing. We’re curious to see new capabilities of the tool and test its new uses, for example, to moderate TikTok ad comments, as we predict this social media channel to become more and more important for our clients.
It’s the first social media engagement tool we have ever tried that is truly intuitive and that makes it easy for us to include the clients in the process. The service and support is great and personal. And the value for money is great!
We were looking for a tool that would allow us to consolidate and manage comments and private messages from Messenger in one place. Analytics and reports were also very important to us, as they would show us the level of our social media customer service. That’s why, in 2017, we decided to choose NapoleonCat.

FAQs
Can LinkedIn comments be deleted automatically?
Yes, on Company Pages. What you set up is a LinkedIn auto delete comment rule: you tell Auto-moderation which comments you mean – by keyword, by an AI tag like spam or hate speech, by sentiment or simply by whether the comment carries a link or an image – and it deletes or hides them as they arrive. Worth being straight about one thing: the rule acts on comments that come in after you switch it on, so it keeps new spam off your Pages rather than clearing out what is already sitting there.
Does this work for personal profiles, or only Company Pages?
Company Pages only, and that’s LinkedIn’s decision rather than ours – comment moderation is what they open up to tools like NapoleonCat. Publishing is the exception: you can schedule posts to both Company Pages and personal profiles from the same calendar. But the Social Inbox, Auto-moderation, analytics and reports all work on Company Pages.
Can it stop LinkedIn spam messages and connection requests too?
No, and we’d rather say so than let you find out later. NapoleonCat works on comments, not LinkedIn DMs or invitations. For those, LinkedIn’s own settings are what you have: filter who can send you invitations, and report the ones that get through. What we handle is the part everyone else can see – your Company Page comment sections.
Is there a tool for moderating LinkedIn comments if we’re a B2B company?
That’s most of who uses this. B2B is where it matters most, because your comment section is being read by prospects, candidates and partners rather than by strangers scrolling. So it does two jobs at once: the rules take spam out automatically, and the Social CRM shows you who a commenter is before you decide what to do about them.
Do you need spam moderators for a LinkedIn Page, or can rules handle it?
For most Company Pages the rules handle the bulk of it, because LinkedIn spam repeats itself – the same crypto pitches, the same “great post, check my profile”, the same link-only comments. That is exactly the shape a rule is good at. What a person is still for is the judgement calls: the annoyed customer, the awkward question, the comment that is rude but fair. So the split most teams land on is that Auto-moderation takes the volume, and whoever moderates spends their time on the comments that deserve a human.
Should I just turn comments off on my LinkedIn Page instead?
You can, and LinkedIn lets you restrict or disable comments per post. It also switches off the thing you posted for. Comments are where the interested people show up, and turning them off to stop a handful of spammers costs you the ones you wanted. Deleting the spam automatically leaves the conversation open and takes it off your plate at the same time.
Which plan do I need for this, and what does it cost?
Automation is what this page is about, and it starts on Expert, at $139 a month or $119 a month billed annually. Pro, at $109, gives you the all-in-one Social Inbox and AI reply suggestions, but you moderate by hand. Standard has no inbox, so it won’t do this job at all. Those prices are for two users and five profile slots; more of either costs more. The AI Assistant is free up to 100 tickets a month, with unlimited tagging as a paid add-on. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial, no credit card required.
