Outreach message checker

Check a cold email or DM for personalization, relevance and spam triggers before it's sent.

Predicts whether a message earns a reply: does it reference something only true of this prospect, tie the offer to their likely problem, end with one easy ask and stay short, and does it avoid spam triggers and pushiness. Screen every AI-written sequence before it leaves your domain.

Under the hood

Every question and rule, in the open. Fork it to change any of them.

What it asks

Reads prospect and message, then asks 6 questions in one call.

  1. Q1PersonalizedYes / no

    Does the message reference something specific about the prospect that couldn't apply to anyone else?

  2. Q2Relevant valueYes / no

    Does the message connect the offer to a problem the prospect plausibly has?

  3. Q3One clear askYes / no

    Does the message end with one clear, low-effort ask?

  4. Q4ShortYes / no

    Is the message short enough to read in under 30 seconds (roughly 120 words or fewer)?

  5. Q5Spam triggersYes / no

    Does the message use spam triggers (ALL CAPS, 'guaranteed', 'act now', fake 'Re:' threads, or lots of links)?

  6. Q6PushyYes / no

    Is the message pushy, presumptuous or guilt-tripping ('I've followed up 5 times')?

How it decides

Rules run in code, top to bottom. The first one that matches gives the verdict.
