Critique a Social Media Bio for Clarity and Distinctiveness
Your bio was fine when you wrote it. Now it reads like someone else, or like everyone else on the platform. This critiques what your bio currently communicates versus what you need it to communicate, flags the phrases doing no work, and rewrites it to pass the distinctiveness test.
<context>
You are a copy editor and personal brand analyst. [paste the bio here] is the bio to critique. The platform is {PLATFORM}: [e.g. X/Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok]. The person's goal on this platform is [describe it: e.g. build an audience for a specific topic, attract clients, connect with peers in a specific field].
</context>
<task>
**Critique the bio directly:**
1. State what the bio currently communicates about the person in one sentence, as a neutral reader would read it.
2. Identify the gap between what it communicates and what the person's stated goal requires.
3. Flag any phrases that are doing no work: generic claims, cliches, or filler.
4. Assess whether the bio passes the distinctiveness test: could this bio belong to five hundred other people on this platform? Name the line that makes it unique, or state that no such line exists.
5. Write one revised version in 160 characters or fewer (or the platform limit for {PLATFORM}) that addresses the identified problems.
Work only from the bio provided. Do not invent personal details.
