PostRoast · Marketing
PostRoast is an AI writing tool that reviews an X (Twitter) draft, roasts what is weak in it, scores it on four signals, and returns a sharper version you would actually post.
About PostRoast
What Is PostRoast
PostRoast judges the draft you already wrote instead of generating content from a blank page. You paste an X post, pick a goal if you want one, and the tool comes back with a blunt critique plus a rewritten line. The point is to roast a post before it goes live, while you can still fix it. The pitch on its own site is simple: the feed doesn't owe you a reply, and most drafts die because they are polite and interchangeable.
The four scores are Engage, Warmth, Viral, and Payout. Each one answers a plain question about the post, and Warmth is really asking whether it sounds like a person wrote it. Payout tracks whether the post shape fits X Original Content Rewards, which pay original Home posts. It is a reading of the words, not a forecast of likes or payout cash.
The main limit is scope. PostRoast works on the copy, not your whole content operation. It doesn't schedule posts, post as you, or pull your follower count into the score. There's no calendar, no queue, and no promise that a high score will get reach. You sign in to use it, and the free tier stops at three roasts a day.
Getting Started
- Sign in with email, or with X if that option is offered for identity only.
- Paste the draft you almost posted into the roast box.
- Pick a goal if you want one, then run the roast.
- Read the four scores and the one line explaining why the draft gives people no reason to stop.
- Rewrite it, open it in Studio, or export a roast card, then post the better version yourself.

Best for
The users, tasks, and scenarios where this tool fits best.
Users
- Writers and founders who post on X and watch good drafts stall in the feed, and who want a fast second opinion before they hit Post.
- Creators who care whether a post shape can earn X Original Content Rewards, since Payout flags posts that don't fit the program.
- People who write their own copy and want the last five minutes of editing to be sharper, not a full content team.
- Casual posters who only want a quick check now and then, since three free roasts a day after sign-in cover light use.
Tasks
- Roasting a draft tweet before publishing to find the passive opener that kills it.
- Scoring a post on Engage, Warmth, Viral, and Payout to see which signal is dragging.
- Rewriting a stiff announcement into a line with a stake and some tension.
- Checking whether a post's shape fits X Original Content Rewards before you rely on it.
- Exporting a roast card to share the before and after with a writing buddy.
Scenarios
- You wrote a launch post that reads like a press release, and you want to know why nobody would stop for it.
- You have five minutes before you post and want a blunt read on the first line.
- You keep posting status updates that get no replies, and you want to see the pattern.
- You are chasing Original Content Rewards and want to check that a draft fits the format.
Key features
Draft Roast
Paste an X post and PostRoast comes back with a direct critique of what is weak, plus the single line that explains why the draft would die in the feed. It works on the words you wrote, not your follower count, so the feedback stays about the copy.
Four-Score Reading
Each draft gets scored on Engage, Warmth, Viral, and Payout. Engage asks whether anyone stops, Warmth asks whether it sounds like a person, Viral asks whether anyone passes it on, and Payout checks whether the post shape fits X Original Content Rewards. PostRoast keeps it to four scores rather than inventing a fifth.
Rewrite and Studio Workspace
After a roast, you can rewrite the post on the spot or open it in Studio. Studio is the paid workspace where drafts and critiques stop being capped, which suits writers who review several posts a day.
Roast Cards
You can export a roast card that shows the weak draft next to the sharper one. It only goes public when you click share, so you control whether the before and after leaves your account.
Compose on X
When you are ready, PostRoast opens a draft on X with the first post filled in, and copies the remaining thread posts for you to paste. It doesn't take posting permission or publish on your behalf.
Goal-Aware Roasts
You can set a goal before a roast if you have one in mind. The scoring still reads the words, but a stated goal nudges the critique toward what that draft is trying to do.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Judges the draft you already have, so feedback lands on real copy instead of a generic prompt.
- The four scores are specific enough to act on, since each one maps to a plain question about the post.
- Payout scoring is tied to X Original Content Rewards, which matters if that program is part of your plan.
- Three free roasts a day after sign-in is enough to test it before paying.
- No posting permission required, so it never publishes as you.
Cons
- It only handles copy, so it will not schedule, queue, or manage a content calendar for you.
- The free tier caps at three roasts a day, which runs out fast if you review many posts.
- Scores read the words, not reach, so a high Engage or Viral number is no guarantee of impressions or likes.
- If you skip X sign-in, anything tied to your X timeline stays out of the picture, since email sign-in alone carries less context.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. You sign in, then you get three free roasts a day. PostRoast stores the draft so it can score it and keep history if you want it.
