The personalization tax

Recruiters and hiring managers in NYC receive 50-200 cold messages per week. Reply rates for mass templates are 1-3%. Reply rates for messages that reference a specific hook (a post, a project, a talk, a mutual connection) are 20-35%. This tool exists to enforce the second kind of message — by scoring whether your draft includes a real hook or just generic flattery.

What this is good for

  • Catching "your company is amazing" emails that get ignored
  • Forcing a specific hook tied to the recipient

What this cannot do

  • Verify the recipient's actual interests — do real research on LinkedIn
  • Guarantee a reply — even a great email gets ignored sometimes
