What this tool checks

The same lint Outreach Studio runs before any campaign sends: known spam-trigger phrases ("act now", "risk-free", "100% free"…), exclamation-mark and ALL-CAPS abuse, repeated punctuation, link count, subject-line length, and money amounts in the subject. Each is a pattern real spam filters weigh against you.

Why cold emails land in spam

Three things decide inbox placement: your domain's authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC — check yours with our free DNS checker), your sending behavior (volume, pace, bounce rate), and your content — which is what this tool checks. Clean content won't save an unauthenticated domain, but spammy content can sink a perfectly authenticated one.

Quick rules for cold email that deliver

  • Under 150 words, plain text, one link at most
  • No trigger phrases — write like you'd write to a colleague
  • Personalize genuinely: their business, their industry, their problem
  • One clear, low-friction ask (a reply beats a booking link)
  • Always include a working unsubscribe option
  • The full playbook — authentication, warm-up, volume, monitoring — is in the deliverability guide.
