What the extension actually does

Before you publish

Score your draft before you hit Publish

A writing coach sits beside LinkedIn's composer. Same cringe score and reasons, plus a cleaner proposal you can steal from.

On the feed

Score, hide, and rewrite their posts

Every post in your feed gets a cringe score. Hide the worst, rewrite the rest in casual language, and see exactly why it scored.

01

Hide posts that go too far

Set a threshold and the worst of the feed disappears. Bring a post back if you still want to read it.

02

Read a cringe-free version

Posts above your threshold get rewritten in casual language. Toggle back to the original whenever you want.

03

See exactly why it scored

Click the score for the reasons and how many points each added. If it feels off, mark it too high or too low.

04

Strip the noise from the feed

Unroll long posts. Hide images, videos, reactions, ads, and both sidebars. Start from Raw, Balanced, or Clean, then flip the switches.

05

Show original posts only

Filter the feed to original posts and skip the shares and reposts. The toggle sits next to LinkedIn's own sort control.

06

Works in more than English

The extension detects the post's language, then scores and rewrites it in that language.

The person behind the tool

Who is behind this?

Hi, I'm Bartek Igielski from Poland, an indie maker and software developer, working solo since 2023.

Before this I spent over 10 years building and leading teams on software products. Now I put that into small, practical tools and run every part of them myself.
