LinkedIn About Section Generator
Write a LinkedIn About section that sounds like you, not a template.
The About section is the one place on LinkedIn where you get to explain your work in your own words, and it is the part most people leave blank or fill with a list of buzzwords. This free LinkedIn summary generator drafts a first-person About section from a few notes about your role, experience, skills and goals.
The draft opens with a line built to be read before the “see more” cut-off, then covers what you do and who you do it for, lists your core skills, and ends with a short invitation to connect. Pick a tone to match your field. A live counter checks the result against LinkedIn's 2,600-character limit, and the generator only uses the facts you give it, so treat the output as a first draft to edit into your own voice.
Pair it with the LinkedIn headline generator so your headline and About section tell the same story. To keep your profile active after the rewrite, plan a steady run of posts with the PostJay LinkedIn scheduler.
Frequently asked questions
How long can a LinkedIn About section be?
The About section holds up to 2,600 characters. This generator aims well under that so you have room to edit, and it shows a live count against the 2,600 limit. Only the first few lines show before "see more", so the opening sentence matters most.
What's the difference between a LinkedIn summary and an About section?
They are the same section. Your profile labels it About, and many people still call it the LinkedIn summary. It is the free-form section near the top of your profile where you explain what you do in your own words.
Should my LinkedIn About section be written in the first person?
Usually, yes. First person reads like a conversation rather than a press release, which suits a profile people visit to get a sense of who you are. The generator writes in the first person by default, and you can switch the tone to fit your field.
Will it invent jobs or results I don't have?
No. It is told to use only the facts you provide and not to add employers, clients, numbers or awards. Give it your real experience and results, then edit the draft so it sounds like you.
