Is this video ready to post?

It's ready if the first two seconds say something instead of setting something up, it makes exactly one point, it still works with the sound off, and every claim in it is one you'd defend in a reply. Tick the nine checks below for a blunt verdict and an ordered list of what to fix.

This tool runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to Heyclift, stored, or used to ask you for an email.

How the pre-publish checklist works

  1. 1.Nine checks, each one drawn from a reason posts usually fail rather than from a style guide.
  2. 2.Each check is weighted: a weak opening costs far more than a small caption, so the score reflects that.
  3. 3.You get a verdict, a short explanation, and every unticked item with the specific fix for it.
  4. 4.Nothing is recorded. This page never sends a request anywhere.

What it won't do

A high score isn't a prediction. It means the post is unlikely to fail for an avoidable reason — it doesn't mean the idea is strong, and it can't tell you whether your audience cares. Judge published posts on saves and shares rather than on this score.

Questions about this tool

Is my video ready to post?+

It is if the first two seconds say something, it makes one point, it works with the sound off, and every claim in it is one you'd defend in a reply. Answer the nine checks below and you'll get a plain verdict and the fixes in the order they matter.

Why are the checks weighted?+

Because they aren't equal. A weak opening sinks a post on its own; a slightly small caption doesn't. The weighting means the score reflects what actually decides whether a post travels.

What score is good enough to publish?+

Anything above roughly four fifths. Below that, the first item in the fix list is almost always the real problem — fix it and publish rather than polishing the rest.

Is the pre-publish checklist free?+

Yes, and there is no account, no email wall and no usage limit. It runs on your device, so it costs us nothing per use.

Do you store what I type?+

No. There is no server call in this tool at all. Reload the page and everything you entered is gone.

Can I use the output commercially?+

Yes. What you get out is yours to post, edit or ignore, with no credit required.
