Cold Email Grader
Get two scores: how well it's written (copy) and how likely it is to work (system). Because the best-written cold email still fails if nobody knows who you are.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the cold email grader score emails?
The grader produces two scores: a Copy Score (how well the email is written across brevity, value clarity, deliverability risk, and CTA quality) and a System Score (the expected outcome based on your relationship context, timing trigger, and ask type). The system score matters more because even perfect copy can't overcome stranger outreach — response rates are structurally capped by how well the recipient knows you.
What's a good cold email score?
A copy score of 70+ means the writing is strong. But the system score is what predicts results: cold outreach with no trigger typically gets 1-3% reply rates regardless of copy quality. Warm outreach with prior visibility gets 12-25%. The grader shows both so you know where to invest your time — usually it's not in rewriting the email.
Is this cold email grader free?
Yes, completely free with no signup required. Paste your email, set your context, and get a full diagnostic instantly. We built this tool because the biggest insight in outreach isn't about writing better emails — it's understanding why some emails get responses and others don't, regardless of quality.
Improve The Message, Then Improve The System
Use this score as a diagnostic. The bigger lift comes from switching from stranger outreach to Earned Outbound.
