How to use this tool

Describe how you know the person, how long you worked together and what you saw them do. The tool writes three recommendations that keep your role and theirs separate, ready for you to edit and submit on their LinkedIn profile.

  1. 01

    Describe the working relationship

    In “Working relationship and contributions,” name the person, your role and theirs, how long you worked together and the specific work you saw them deliver.

  2. 02

    Choose a tone and generate

    Pick Friendly or Professional and click Generate drafts. On the first run the browser downloads the writing model once (about 2.3 GB, or about 1 GB for the lighter model) before the three recommendations appear.

  3. 03

    Edit and send it on LinkedIn

    Fix any detail in the card you like, click Copy, then open the person’s LinkedIn profile, choose Recommend and paste your text.

What to include in your notes

The writer only uses what you give it, so name real moments. • Who the person is and how you know them • Your role and theirs, and how long you worked together • One or two specific things they did, with numbers if you know them • The skills or qualities you’d vouch for

How LinkedIn recommendations work

• You can only recommend your 1st-degree connections • You can give one recommendation per position, per person • It appears on their profile only after they choose to show it • They can ask you to revise it later

Keep it credible

• Write only about work you saw firsthand • Check names, job titles, dates and results before sending • Swap generic praise for one concrete example • A few short paragraphs are enough

Privacy and requirements

• Your notes are processed by the Qwen3-4B model, or the lighter Qwen3-1.7B, inside your browser and aren’t uploaded • It uses WebGPU and runs fastest in the latest Chrome or Edge on a computer; phones and lower-memory devices automatically use the lighter model • The first run downloads the model once (about 2.3 GB, or about 1 GB for the lighter model), then later runs start right away • Notes can be 10 to 2,000 characters • This page writes in English; the Chinese page writes in Simplified Chinese

Frequently asked questions

What is a LinkedIn recommendation generator?

It’s a tool that turns your notes about a coworker, manager, client or student into a written recommendation you can post on their profile. This one creates three drafts, each covering your relationship, their contribution and your endorsement.

How do I use the LinkedIn recommendation generator?

1. Write who the person is, how you worked together and what they did. 2. Choose Friendly or Professional. 3. Click Generate drafts. 4. Edit the best draft, click Copy and paste it into LinkedIn’s Recommend form.

How do I submit a recommendation on LinkedIn?

Open the person’s profile, click More, select Recommend, then choose your relationship and their position at the time. Paste your text and send it. The recommendation shows on their profile only if they choose to display it.

Who can I write a LinkedIn recommendation for?

LinkedIn lets you recommend only your 1st-degree connections, such as colleagues, coworkers or students. You can give one recommendation per position for each person, so pick the role where you saw their best work.

How long should a LinkedIn recommendation be?

Most strong recommendations are a few short paragraphs. The drafts here aim for about 60 to 100 words each, which is enough for the relationship, one or two examples and a clear endorsement. Add more only if it brings in a new, specific detail.

Will it invent achievements I didn’t mention?

The writer is instructed to use only the facts in your notes and to keep your work and the other person’s work separate. If a draft adds numbers, years or claims like awards that you didn’t supply, it’s rewritten automatically. Still check every name, date and result before you send it.

Is what I type about my coworker uploaded?

No. The text is processed by a Qwen3-4B model, or the lighter Qwen3-1.7B, running in your browser, so your notes stay on your device. Your browser downloads the model once, the first time you generate, and keeps it for later runs.

Is it free, and do I need to sign up?

It’s free, with no signup or account needed. You don’t have to connect LinkedIn, because you copy the finished text and paste it into the recommendation form yourself.

What devices, languages and limits apply?

The model runs with WebGPU and works best in the latest Chrome or Edge on a desktop or laptop. Computers with enough graphics memory use Qwen3-4B (first download about 2.3 GB); phones and lower-memory devices automatically use the lighter Qwen3-1.7B (about 1 GB), whose drafts need a closer check. Notes must be 10 to 2,000 characters, and each run gives three drafts. The English page writes in American English, and the Chinese page writes in Simplified Chinese.

What makes a LinkedIn recommendation sound genuine?

Specific details do. Mention a project you shared, something they did that made a difference and how it helped the team, then end with who you’d recommend them to. Reading it aloud helps you catch phrases that don’t sound like you.
