Free LinkedIn About & Summary Generator
Three first-person drafts of your LinkedIn About section — concise, story-led and recruiter scan — built only from the facts you give. Canadian English, ready to edit.
Missing numbers become [placeholders] — never invented.
Do your whole LinkedIn profile at once
Paste your profile or import screenshots into Jobeefy to get headline, About and experience rewrites matched to your target role — then copy each one into LinkedIn.
How to write a LinkedIn About section in 5 steps
The structure behind every draft — use it to edit the result into your own voice.
- 1
Open with what you do
Role, setting and what you're known for — the first lines show before 'see more'.
- 2
Add two proof points
Specific results with numbers you can stand behind. Use a placeholder until you confirm the figure.
- 3
Name your tools and credentials
Software, methods, certifications and languages a recruiter would filter on.
- 4
Say what you want next
The role and location you're targeting, so the right people reach out.
- 5
Edit it into your own voice
Read it aloud. Remove anything you wouldn't say in an interview.
How to write a LinkedIn About section people finish reading
- Line one: what you do and for whom.
- Two proof points with real numbers.
- Tools, credentials and languages.
- What you want next and how to reach you.
- First person, plain language, Canadian spelling.
Treat the first two lines as the whole pitch
On most screens, only the opening of your About shows before it collapses. If those lines don't say what you do, most visitors never tap "see more". Put your role and strongest signal there.
Pick the version that sounds like you
The generator returns a concise version, a story-led version and a recruiter-scan version. Pick the one closest to how you talk, then edit. More examples by situation are in our LinkedIn About section examples, and every role page has a full About example.
About openings, before and after
Illustrative examples, not customer results. Replace all details with your own evidence; never copy invented achievements.

- Ending without saying what you're looking for.
Frequently asked questions
Is the LinkedIn About section the same as the summary?
Yes. LinkedIn renamed 'Summary' to 'About'; people still search for 'LinkedIn summary'. This tool writes for that section.
How long should my LinkedIn About be?
LinkedIn allows about 2,600 characters. Most strong About sections use 600–1,300 so they're readable on a phone.
Will it make up achievements?
No. It only uses achievements you enter. Where a number would help but you didn't give one, it leaves a placeholder like [X%] for you to fill in honestly.
Is it free?
Yes — free with no signup, limited to a few runs every 10 minutes per connection.
