Recruiter Outreach Message Generator
A recruiter outreach message generator drafts a personalised message to a passive candidate, built around a specific role, company, and channel. Enter the role and company, pick LinkedIn or Email, and it returns a message with a genuine specific opener, a one-line opportunity pitch, and a low-pressure ask. Email output adds a subject line; LinkedIn output omits it. Recruiters, founders, and hiring managers use it to get replies from in-demand candidates who ignore generic blasts. The best outreach feels researched — it names something specific about the person and gives an easy way to say yes or no. Replace the bracketed prompts with a real detail from the candidate's profile before you send.

FAQ
why does the opener ask for a specific detail
Candidates ignore generic blasts but respond to messages that name something real about their work. A concrete, honest observation in the first line signals you actually looked and dramatically lifts reply rates. The placeholder reminds you to find one before you send.
how long should the message be
Short — a few sentences readable on a phone: why you reached out, the gist of the opportunity, and a low-friction ask. Long messages bury the point and read like a job spec rather than an invitation. The generator keeps it tight by design.
how do LinkedIn and email outputs differ
Email adds a subject line in the format "[Role] at [Company] — thought of you", which is omitted on LinkedIn where the platform handles the header. The body structure is otherwise the same.
what is the ask at the end
A low-pressure invitation to a quick chat, with an easy out. Giving people permission to say no, and an easy way to reply, makes them more likely to engage than a hard pitch does.
