# LinkedIn Post Analyzer Canonical page: https://depost.ai/tools/linkedin-post-analyzer Paste a post and get a grade out of 100 against a fixed rubric: hook, structure, specifics, reader payoff, and length. Under the score, the exact lines to rewrite, a rewrite for each that keeps your facts and your voice, and the lines worth keeping. It grades the writing, not the reach: no tool can see your audience from the text, and this one does not pretend to. Free to use, with no account needed. ## How to use it 1. Fill in **The post to grade**. 2. Click **Grade the post**. To see a result before typing, click **Try an example** first; it fills the form with a sample. ## Example: What a 46 looks like, and why This is the demo post the Try an example button pastes in. The numbers in its third paragraph are the post; the grade shows how much of the rest is the standard remote-work post everyone has already read. **What went in** - The post to grade: Excited to share some learnings from our journey building a remote team over the past 2 years! Remote work is not for everyone. But when it works, it really works. We've grown from 3 to 22 people across 6 countries, and along the way we've learned a lot about communication, trust and culture. Here are some things that worked for us: - Async by default - Overcommunicate - Trust your team - Invest in the right tools Building a remote team is challenging but incredibly rewarding. What has worked for your remote team? Let me know in the comments! **What came back** Score: 46/100. The one specific in this post, 3 to 22 people across 6 countries, is buried under an opener and a closer that could sit on any post about anything. - Hook, 8/30: "Excited to share some learnings" says nothing a reader wants the rest of; the real first line is in paragraph three. - Structure, 13/20: Short paragraphs and a list, but the list is four labels with nothing under them. - Specifics, 7/20: Two numbers, then "communication, trust and culture", which are categories rather than things that happened. - Reader payoff, 6/15: The reader learns that the author has a remote team and that four common practices worked, without learning how. - Length and rhythm, 12/15: No filler in the middle; the opener and the closer are the filler, and the closing question asks for nothing in particular. - "Excited to share some learnings from our journey building a remote team over the past 2 years!": The opener is the only part most people will see, and it announces that a post is coming instead of starting it. Fix: 3 people to 22, across 6 countries, in two years. Four things had to change before it worked. - "- Async by default": A label. The reader already knows the phrase; what they do not know is what it meant in your team. Fix: Keep the four items and give each one sentence on what it changed in practice: the meeting you stopped holding, the document that replaced it. - "Building a remote team is challenging but incredibly rewarding.": Could close any post on any subject. It repeats the second paragraph in vaguer words. Fix: Cut it. The list is the ending. - "What has worked for your remote team? Let me know in the comments!": A question with no edge gets answers with no edge. Fix: Ask about the item people disagree on: "Async by default: does it still hold once you pass 20 people?" - Keep "We've grown from 3 to 22 people across 6 countries": The only line with numbers in it, and the reason to read the post. It should open it. ## Questions people ask ### How does the post analyzer score a post? Against a fixed rubric, out of 100. The hook is worth 30 points, because the first line is all most people see before "see more". Structure is 20: short paragraphs, an order that works on a phone, an ending that lands. Specifics are 20: numbers, names, moments, examples, judged only on what is on the page. Reader payoff is 15: does the reader leave with something they can use. Length and rhythm are 15: no filler, no repeats, a close that asks a real question or makes a real claim. Each area gets its own note, so you can see where the points went. ### Is the score a prediction of how the post will perform? No, and any tool claiming that is guessing. Reach depends on who follows you, when you post, who replies in the first hour, and what else is in the feed that day, none of which is in the text. The score grades the writing: whether the post gives a reader a reason to stop and something to take away. A strong post can still land quietly, and a weak one can travel on a big account. What the grade tells you is which of the two you are relying on. ### What is a good score? 85 to 100 is ready to post; 70 to 84 is strong; 50 to 69 is publishable with edits; 0 to 49 is rewrite it. Most drafts land in the fifties, and the note under each area says why. A jump from the fifties to the seventies usually comes from one change: opening on the specific that was buried in the middle. ### Can I grade a post that is already published? Yes, paste the text. A low grade on a post that did well is not a contradiction; it means the post travelled on something other than the writing, and the notes show what would have made it stronger on its own. Grading a hit and a flop side by side is the fastest way to see which area is your habit. ### Does it rewrite the post for me? It quotes the lines to change and gives a rewrite for each, keeping your facts and your voice, and it names the lines worth keeping so you do not edit them away by accident. For a full rewrite of the whole post, with every change named, use the post booster on this site; the two are built to be used in that order. ### Is this the same as the AI content detector? No. The detector answers one question: which lines read as machine-written. The analyzer grades the whole post as writing, whoever wrote it. A post can be clean on the detector and score 40 here, because it says nothing; it can also be flagged there and score well here, because a strong post with one "thrilled to share" in it is still a strong post. ### Is it free, and is my post stored? Free, with no account and a daily cap so it stays available. The post is sent once for the grade and is not stored. ## More free tools - [Every free tool for LinkedIn and X](https://depost.ai/tools) --- Cite as Depost AI (https://depost.ai/tools/linkedin-post-analyzer).
