Click the mop on any post and you get a breakdown: a score, a verdict, the Slopprint and three blue bars. Here's what each part means, what moves it, and what it can't tell you.
Every part of the panel, top to bottom. This example post was flagged, so it's drawn in red.
Jev asks nine separate questions about the writing, one per spoke of the chart. The shape tells you what kind of slop a post is, not just how much. Six signs come from Graphite's research on AI tells, which compared human and model writing. The last three are LinkedIn habits we added ourselves.
Plenty of people have one over-the-top habit. When only one sign stands out, the score is cut. Slop usually shows up as several signs at once, and that's what gets flagged.
Jev says how sure it is about each sign, and shaky answers carry less weight. If it isn't sure enough about the post overall, the post is left alone.
Some signs count for more than others. The exact weights aren't published, so nobody can write a post that games them. That's the only part of the scoring we keep private.
I got rejected 47 times. Then everything changed. Here's what I learned 👇
We rebuilt our onboarding flow in March. Trial-to-paid went from 9% to 14%, and most of that came from cutting one form field.
Comment "GUIDE" and I'll DM you the template. ♻️ Repost to help your network.
If you've tried this with a team under ten people, I'd like to hear what happened.A genuine question barely registers. Formula asks and giveaways keyed to comments are what count.
This game-changing framework will unlock unprecedented growth and elevate your brand.
The framework cut our review cycle from five days to two.
An incredibly meaningful, truly transformative experience. This matters more than ever.
The workshop got three of our five teams shipping behind feature flags within a week.
Scale your output without sacrificing quality, without burning out, and without hiring.
It saves us about ten hours a week. Setup took a month and we lost two integrations.
Leadership isn't a title. It's a mindset. It's not about being right, it's about being curious.
The best managers I've had asked more questions than they answered in one-to-ones.
Growth is a delicate dance between vision and humility, a tapestry woven from quiet moments.
We grew because two customers referred six more.
Furthermore, this approach may provide additional benefits. Ultimately, it can support long-term outcomes.
It helped. Not as much as we hoped, but enough to keep.
A junior employee once asked me a question I'll never forget. That day, I realised leadership is about listening.
Last Tuesday our intern found a bug in the billing export that three of us had missed for a month. We now review exports in pairs.
Does this read like one particular person, or like a generic professional voice that anyone could have written? Jev reads the text only.
Anyone writing on someone else's behalf uses those too, so they don't prove there's a real voice.
As leaders, we must embrace change. I believe the future belongs to those who adapt. At our company, we are committed to growth.It's in the first person, but anyone could have written it.
Spent Monday rewriting our pricing page for the third time (don't ask). The version that finally worked was the ugly one my co-founder sketched on a train to Leeds.Details, an aside and a rhythm that only this person would produce.
It takes a little off the slop score. It's a nudge, not an exemption: a very personal post stuffed with engagement bait can still be flagged.
This is not the same as “was it written by AI?” Slop Mop asks that separately, and the answer can only soften the score of a post that reads as typed by a person. It never flags a post by itself.
Could someone doing the job learn something from this post, or act on it? Who or what wrote it doesn't matter. Useful AI-assisted writing scores just as well as useful writing typed by hand.
A thoughtful opinion piece can be worth reading. It just isn't what this bar measures.
AI is changing everything. Businesses that don't adapt will be left behind. The winners will be the ones who put customers first.True enough, but there's nothing a reader didn't already know.
We moved support triage to a two-question form. First response dropped from 11 hours to 3. The one thing it broke was refunds, so those now skip the form. The form is below.Numbers, a trade-off and something you could copy tomorrow.
A post nobody has commented on yet can score high here, and a viral post can score low. Popularity has its own bar, reader response. When a post is checked again later, Jev sees what readers have done since. Real discussion and reposts count as evidence that people found something in it. A quiet post isn't marked down for being new.
Usefulness is half of the shield: a genuinely useful post has a large share of its slop score taken off. Never all of it, so a useful post buried in bait can still be flagged.
What readers actually did with the post: reactions, comments and reposts. This one isn't Jev's opinion. It's worked out from the counts shown under the post.
A comment costs someone minutes, and a repost puts the post in front of their whole network. Both count for far more than a one-tap reaction.
Hundreds of reactions with almost no comments or reposts is what an engagement pod or a cheap hook looks like. Once a post has lots of reactions, a thin comment-and-repost rate earns it less credit.
The scale is logarithmic. A post's first comments and reposts move the bar a lot; the thousandth reaction barely moves it. Filling it takes a very large, genuinely engaged audience.
These bars are illustrative. The exact weights can change as we tune them.
Reader response is the other half of the shield, alongside usefulness. Together they can take a large share off a post's slop score, but never all of it.
Posts are scored when you first scroll near them and checked again as they pick up engagement, so a new post starts with an empty bar and can fill it later. Your own posts and drafts leave this bar out entirely: nobody has reacted to a draft, and your colour should reflect your writing, not your reach.
From eleven answers to one score, in order.
Click the mop beside the post's “…” menu and vote No, Maybe or Probably. Your vote overrides the score in your feed, and everyone's votes feed into how we tune the questions. If a bar looks badly off, email hello@slopmop.lol with the post's link and which bar surprised you.
