Frequently asked questions
What does the score look at?
Length, jargon, how many asks the message makes, extra links, unfilled placeholders such as {{firstName}}, whether it talks about the reader or about you, and openers people have read many times. It is a clarity check, not a prediction of replies.
Is my message stored or sent anywhere?
The score runs in your browser and nothing is sent to us when you score a message. If you choose "Email me the report", we receive your email address and the message you pasted, and a person may reply with one suggestion. Without that, nothing is saved.
What emails will I get if I ask for the report?
The report with the specific fixes first, then one short note around day 3 and a last one around day 7 that says it is the last. Every email has an unsubscribe link.
Does it cost anything?
No. Scoring is free and needs no account. If you later want FollowArc to draft and send messages for you, the 7-day trial needs a card to start, charges $0 today, and costs nothing if you cancel before day 7.
