Outreach · Tool

Your prospect reads four seconds of this. Make them count.

The tool that reads your cold email the way a busy stranger actually reads it: once, fast, looking for a reason to stop. Get the exact sentence that loses them, and two rewrites built around the smallest ask that gets a reply.

IncludedNative Claude Skill + plain .md for ChatGPT, Gemini & every LLM

A cold message is read once, in about four seconds, by someone looking for a reason to stop. Most outreach advice focuses on what to say. The real failure is structural: the message opens about the sender, asks for too much too soon, or takes too long to get to the point.

This tool doesn't rewrite your voice. It finds the specific sentence where a stranger stops reading, names why, and rebuilds the message around the smallest possible next step, almost always a reply, not a call.

A demonstration

Same message, run two ways.

One reading tells you it's fine. The other tells you exactly where it stops working.

The situation

A B2B founder's cold email to VP-level prospects is getting a 2% reply rate across 400 sends. The message is polite, well-organized, and asks for 15 minutes for a demo.

Asked cold

You ask Claude to review the email. It says the copy is clear and the offer is reasonable, maybe suggests tightening the second paragraph.

All true, and the reply rate stays at 2%, because nobody told you the email opens with your company name instead of the recipient's actual problem, or that you're asking for calendar time before you've earned a single reply.

Run through the Tool

It reads it as the recipient would, once, and finds the exact sentence that loses them:

  • Second sentence: opens with the sender's company, not the recipient's problem
  • 140 words of pitch before a 15-minute ask, with zero prior relationship
  • The subject line and opener both fail the about-you-or-about-me test

Then two rewrites, each under 75 words, each rebuilt around a single question a reader can answer in one line instead of a meeting they haven't earned yet. Not a polish pass on the existing draft. A different structure entirely.

The cold version told you the email was fine. This told you why it wasn't working.

Questions

Before you buy.

How is this different from just asking Claude directly?

Asked cold, Claude tells you the copy looks fine and offers a light polish. This reads it the way a skeptical stranger actually reads it, names the exact sentence where they stop, and rebuilds the message around the smallest ask that gets a reply instead of the biggest one you were hoping for.

Will this work with ChatGPT, Gemini, and other LLMs?

Yes. You get a native Claude Skill (.zip) that auto-invokes in Claude, plus a plain .md you can paste into a ChatGPT Custom GPT, a Gemini system prompt, or any LLM. The procedure travels with the file.

Can I share this with my team?

It's licensed for your own personal and professional use. The output it produces is yours to circulate. To put the Tool itself in the hands of a whole team, email hello@authority.md about team licensing.

What if it doesn't work for me?

If the file hasn't been delivered, or arrives defective or empty, we refund in full — see our refund policy.
