Free LinkedIn hook generator

Get 10 scroll-stopping opening lines for any post idea. One per hook pattern. Pick the one that fits, keep going.

On LinkedIn, the first two lines decide whether anyone clicks "see more". This tool generates 10 hooks for the same idea, each using a different proven hook pattern. Pick the one that fits your voice, then write the rest of the post around it.

One sentence is plenty. The clearer the idea, the sharper the hooks.

FAQ

Common questions.

What makes a good LinkedIn hook?
It is specific, it is on its own line, and it gives a reason to click "see more". Vague openers like "In today's world" lose. Specific numbers, contrarian claims, and tiny confessions win.
Which hook pattern works best?
It depends on the post. Contrarian claims and surprising stats tend to outperform for thought-leadership posts. Mini-stories and tiny confessions tend to outperform for personal-brand posts. The tool gives you all 10 so you can test.
Will the hooks have hashtags or em-dashes?
No. We strip both. Hooks should feel human, not AI-generated.
Can I use these with the LinkedIn post generator?
Yes, that is the intended workflow. Pick a hook here, then drop the same topic into the post generator to get the full body.
Is it free?
Yes. We rate-limit anonymous use to 10 generations per IP per hour. Each generation gives you 10 hooks, so that's 100 hooks an hour for free.
Does Linqin write hooks automatically?
Yes, Linqin writes a daily post in your voice including the hook. Sign up at linqin.ai/signup.
