I built the tool I wish existed before I hit send.

RoastMyEmail is a one-person product — not a faceless SaaS. Here's who made it, why it exists, and what it's actually trying to do.

Here's the honest version:

I sent a cold email once that I spent 45 minutes on. Personalised opener. Clear value prop. One clean CTA. I was genuinely proud of it.

The reply was three words: “Who are you?”

That stung enough to be useful. I went back and read the email through fresh eyes — and it was bad. Generic in the ways that are hardest to see when you're too close to your own pitch. It felt personal when I wrote it. It read like a template to the person receiving it.

RoastMyEmail exists because most people don't get that feedback. Friends say "looks good." Prospects just don't reply. Your CRM silently marks the thread as lost. Nobody tells you why.

The tool does what a brutally honest colleague would — reads your draft, calls out every weak line by name, scores it, and hands you a better version before you burn another domain reputation or another afternoon rewriting the same paragraph.

I'm a developer by trade. I build WordPress plugins, Chrome extensions, and small products that fix real workflow gaps. RoastMyEmail is the one that surprised me — turns out a lot of people are sending emails they know are bad and just hoping nobody notices.

Now they can fix it first.

What the tool does — and who it's for

RoastMyEmail is an AI cold email checker that reads your outreach draft and tells you, specifically, what's wrong with it.

Not “be more authentic.” Not “personalise more.” Actual line-by-line feedback: this opener signals bulk send, this value prop is buzzword soup, this CTA is asking for too much too soon. Then it gives you a score across four dimensions — hook strength, clarity, personalisation, and spam risk — and a rewrite direction you can act on the same day.

It works for:

Sales reps and SDRs running B2B outbound sequences
Founders doing early customer development and investor outreach
Freelancers pitching clients via cold email or LinkedIn DM
Recruiters whose templates are getting ignored
Anyone who's about to hit send on something and has a nagging feeling it's not right

The first roast is free. No account needed. Paste your draft, get the truth.

What RoastMyEmail doesn't do

It won't send emails for you. It won't build your list. It won't warm up your domain.

There are great tools for all of that. This one does one thing: reads what you're about to send and tells you if it's actually worth sending. That's the gap nobody had filled with real, specific feedback instead of vague “tips” articles.

Ready to find out where your email stands?
