LinkedIn post optimizer
Paste a draft. Get a score, the specific weak spots, and a tightened rewrite.
Now imagine never starting from a blank draft. A ready post for every page of your site, already in your voice.
What is the post optimizer?
Paste a post you have already drafted and this tool scores it from zero to one hundred, points to the specific parts that are letting it down, and hands back a tightened rewrite. It looks at the things that decide whether a post performs, the hook in the first line or two, the clarity of the middle, and whether the ending actually asks for anything. You see your weak spots named, not just a vague grade.
The value is in the diagnosis. A score on its own tells you little, but a score plus the reason behind it tells you what to fix. If the hook is buried or the call to action is missing, the tool says so and shows a version that corrects it, so you learn the pattern and write better next time without the tool.
How to use it
- Paste your full draft, including the first line, since the opening carries most of the weight in how the post is judged.
- Read the score and the breakdown of hook, clarity, and call to action to see which part is dragging the post down.
- Compare your draft to the suggested rewrite, take the changes that fit your voice, and leave the ones that do not.
What the score actually measures
The hook score looks at your first one or two lines, because that is all most people see before deciding whether to expand the post. A strong hook makes a clear promise or raises a question worth answering. A weak one opens with throat-clearing or context nobody asked for yet, and the tool flags exactly which problem yours has.
Clarity covers the body. Long, tangled sentences and paragraphs with no breaks make a post hard to skim, and most reading on LinkedIn is skimming. The score rewards short lines, one idea per paragraph, and a clear through-line from the hook to the point, then shows you where your draft loses that thread.
The call to action score checks the ending. Many posts simply stop, leaving the reader with nothing to do, so no comment happens and reach stalls. A good close asks a specific question or invites a particular response. The rewrite usually adds or sharpens this, since it is the single most common thing missing from a draft.
Who it's for
Company Page managers run finished drafts through this before publishing so each post goes out as strong as it can be. It works hand in hand with the rest of RightHandMan, where posts are generated from the content already on your website, by acting as the quality check on those drafts before they reach your followers. A post built from a case study is good raw material, and a quick optimiser pass makes sure the hook and the ask are doing their job. Compare it with roast my post for blunter feedback, the post booster for a reach-focused rewrite, or the headline analyzer for your profile.
Frequently asked questions
What does the score out of one hundred actually mean?
It is a combined read on how well your post is likely to perform, weighted across the hook, the clarity of the body, and the strength of the call to action. The breakdown matters more than the single number, since it tells you what to fix.
Will the rewrite sound like me?
It aims to keep your meaning and tighten the structure rather than impose a new voice, but you should still edit it. Take the structural fixes, the sharper hook and clearer ending, and keep your own phrasing where it works.
What is a good score to aim for?
Anything in the high range with no single component flagged as weak is publishable. Rather than chasing one hundred, fix whichever part the breakdown calls out as the weakest and the overall score follows.
How is this different from the post booster?
The optimiser is a diagnostic, it scores your draft and explains the weak spots. The booster is more aggressive about rewriting for reach, leaning harder on the hook and call to action. Use the optimiser to understand, the booster to push.
