Is this post a buyer?
Paste any post from X. You get a score out of 100, what pushed it up, what pushed it down, and whether it is worth a reply. This is the same scoring Askline runs on every conversation it finds. No account, nothing sent, nothing posted.
How the score is read
| Score | What it means |
|---|---|
80–100 | Answer today. A person, in the market, with a problem you solve. |
55–79 | Worth a look. Real person, real problem, timing unclear. |
35–54 | Watch. On topic but not buying. Follow, do not reply. |
0–34 | Ignore. A joke, a job post, a vendor, or bait. |
What actually raises a score
Concrete detail, every time. A named tool they are leaving, a team size, a deadline, a stated budget, a specific failure they hit this week. Those are the things a person only writes when the problem is real and current.
What does not count, however well it matches a keyword: jokes and sarcasm, job posts naming your competitor, vendor marketing, funding news, engagement bait, thought leadership about the category, resurfaced threads from last year, and giveaway spam. A keyword alert hands you all of them. A mention is not a buyer goes through the eight kinds in detail.
Do this on a whole category instead
Scoring posts one at a time is useful for calibration, not for finding customers. To see what a scored feed looks like, browse who is asking for software on X by category, or run it on your own offer — same scoring, applied to everything found in the last thirty days.
The method behind all of it is in the guide to finding buyers on X.
