LinkedIn Profile Analyzer

It only scoreswhat it can actually see.

Export your profile as a PDF and seven elements in it are scored out of 100, on weights published for your career level — a student and a lead are not asked to prove the same things. Four more matter to recruiters but are not in that file, so you are told about them instead of marked down for them. A score you can argue with beats a score that guessed.

What a PDF can and cannot show

Seven elements count towards the score.Four never do.

A LinkedIn PDF export carries your headline, your About section, your roles, your projects, your skills and your education — those are scored, each weighted for your career level. It does not carry your banner, a reliable count of recommendations, your activity or your Open to Work setting, and scoring these regardless would mean marking you down for something the file never contained. The photo goes further: the report prints NOT SCORED beside it rather than guessing from a thumbnail.

One extra category — publications, licences or a featured portfolio — can be promoted to 6 points of its own when your profile carries it, funded from projects and skills.

Each column sums to 95 and is scored out of it, then shown on the same 0–100.

Not scored, still worth doing

A PDF export can’t prove these, so we never deduct points for them.

  • Cover bannerA PDF export carries no banner at all
  • RecommendationsNot reliably readable from the export
  • Weekly activityRecruiters filter on it; a PDF cannot show it
  • Open to WorkA visibility setting, not a line in the file

The photo row goes further: it is printed as NOT SCORED, worth zero — the one row every other profile scorer fakes.

The four tools

One score finds the gap.Three tools close it.

One tab each in the app. The score names the gap, the rewrite handles your text, and the two photo tools handle the rest — because the first thing anyone looks at is not your About section.

01

Profile Score

Recruiters search your title and you never come up.

Upload the PDF LinkedIn gives you — and optionally the role you are targeting, or a job description. Back comes a score out of 100 on your level’s weights, a verdict, the fixes ranked by what they cost you, and four pieces of advice about things the file couldn’t prove.

What you get: A score out of 100 on your level's weights, a plain verdict, and the fixes ranked by the points each one costs. Location and spelling are checked against the conventions of the market you are applying in.

  • A rubric that moves with your levelFive weight columns, one 0–100 scale. The table is published
  • Four things it refuses to scoreBanner, recommendations, activity, Open to Work — advice, not deductions
  • The photo row says NOT SCOREDPrinted on the report, worth zero — not quietly guessed
  • “Fix these first”, with costsRanked by points lost, beside red flags and a language check

Optimize LinkedIn

You know the headline is weak. You have rewritten it four times.

Two ways in: improve the profile you exported, or build fresh LinkedIn content from your resume. It rewrites the five sections that are words — headline, about, experience, projects, education — asks where the extra detail should come from, and rescores the result on the same rubric.

What you get: The five sections that are words — headline, About, experience, projects and education — rewritten and ready to paste straight into LinkedIn, then scored again on the same rubric, in the spelling your market expects.

  • Five sections rewrittenHeadline, about, experience, projects and education
  • Kept as it is, when it should beA section that already reads well is labelled, not churned
  • It shows what it could not fix“What’s still holding the score down”, with the points attached
  • Paste-ready, with a mapPer-section copy buttons, and screenshots of where each goes on LinkedIn

Profile Photo

The photo is you at a wedding, cropped. It is the first thing they see.

Your face is off-limits by rule — no smoothing, no reshaping, nothing about you changes. What changes is everything around you: business attire, a clean studio background, proper lighting and a head-and-shoulders crop. Then you drag a slider between the two and decide.

What you get: Your photo with studio-quality lighting, sharper focus, a clean distraction-free background and natural colour that stays true to life. It still looks like you, only better. Your photo is used for nothing else.

  • Your face is untouchableThe rules forbid redrawing, smoothing or reshaping it
  • Outfit, background, lightingBusiness attire and a studio backdrop; religious garments preserved
  • Drag to compareA wipe slider between your upload and the result. Nothing auto-applies
  • Honest about the scoreThe report marks photos NOT SCORED — this is for the humans who look

The decisions behind the number

Three choices that makeone score mean one thing.

Each of these cost the product something — a smaller claim, a harder table to publish, an admission printed on the report. They are why the number is worth arguing with.

The weights are published, all five columns

A fresher and a lead are not scored on the same weights, because pretending they are would make one of the two numbers a lie. What they share is the scale: one 0–100, with the whole table in the open so you can see exactly what your level is being asked for.

The photo row is allowed to say nothing

Every other profile scorer marks your photo out of ten from a PDF thumbnail. This report prints NOT SCORED next to it, worth zero — and ships a separate tool for the humans who do judge it, which is everyone.

The rewrite admits where it stops

Its own words, on every report: “We improved your wording as far as this pass allowed. The rest is up to you — we won’t invent skills, credentials or numbers you don’t have.” And when a rewrite fails to beat your original, it says so and keeps yours.

Before you export anything

The questions worth asking

Why a PDF and not my profile URL?
The export is the copy LinkedIn itself gives you, so the scoring reads the same document every time rather than whatever a scraper managed to reach. It is also why four things are advisory — they simply are not in that file.
Why are the banner, my activity and Open to Work not scored?
Because the export cannot prove them. Your banner, your recommendations, your weekly activity and your Open to Work visibility all matter to recruiters, and none of them survive a PDF export reliably — so you get the advice without the penalty, under the report’s own heading: not scored, still worth doing.
I am a student. Is the score stacked against me?
The opposite: the rubric moves to meet you. At entry level your projects carry 20 points and experience only 10; by lead those flip to 6 and 31. Everyone reads on the same 0–100 — what changes is what your level is fairly asked to show.
Will the rewrite make my profile sound generic?
It works from what your profile already says, asks whether the extra detail should come from your ApplyHustle profile or your saved resume, and leaves a section alone when it already reads well — labelled “Kept as it is”, not churned for the sake of it. When a rewrite fails to beat your original, it keeps yours and says so.
Does the photo tool change my face?
No, by rule — the enhancement is forbidden from redrawing, smoothing or reshaping your face, and religious garments are preserved. It changes the outfit, background, lighting and crop, then shows you a slider between your upload and the result. Nothing is applied to LinkedIn; downloading it is your decision.
Which plans include it, and what if a run fails?
The LinkedIn toolkit ships with the Pro Plus and Premium plans, and each run draws from the same credit allowance as everything else. Charging is on success only: a score that never arrives, a photo that fails, or a banner set that comes back short of four is not billed.

Export it. See the number.It takes about a minute.

Seven sections with their published weights, and the four things worth fixing that no score should mark you on.
