The short answer: most human LinkedIn profile writers charge $99–$500+ and deliver in days — executive packages run $750–$2,500+. None of them tell you how visible your profile is in recruiter search before or after. Below is the full sourced breakdown, and where Standout's $1 instant review fits honestly alongside it.

Type your name — or paste your LinkedIn URL — and get your 0–100 recruiter-visibility score free, right on this page. No sign-in, no account access.
A good human writer earns their fee when your situation needs judgment, not just keywords: a career change that needs a whole new narrative, an executive profile where positioning against a specific board or industry matters, or a profile so thin there's nothing yet to optimize. You also get things software can't give you — an intake interview, revision rounds, and a person accountable for the result.
What no human service on this page offers: a before/after visibility score, or delivery in under a minute. Standout is deliberately narrow — the three sections recruiter search actually matches on (headline, About, experience bullets), scored 0–100 and rewritten instantly for $1. It doesn't interview you, doesn't revise with you, doesn't touch your photo, banner, or skills list, and never asks for account access. The rational order is: run the free score and the $1 review first, then decide whether you still need to spend $400.
Most human LinkedIn profile writing services cost $99–$500+. Résumé-site add-ons run $99–$199, dedicated LinkedIn specialists charge roughly $375–$650, and executive résumé + LinkedIn packages run $750–$2,500+. Freelance marketplace gigs start around $40 but top-rated sellers charge $575–$2,850. Standout's algorithmic review is $1, one-time.
Human services typically deliver a first draft in 3–7 business days after an intake questionnaire or call, and one to two weeks including revision rounds. Standout's $1 review is delivered instantly — the free 0–100 visibility score takes about 60 seconds.
Because it's software, not a person. Standout runs an algorithmic recruiter-visibility audit and returns exactly 3 paste-ready rewrites — a keyword-optimized headline, a rewritten About section, and your top 3 experience bullets reworded for recruiter search — plus a 0–100 score. No human labor, no calls, no revision rounds, so no $400 price tag.
It's a different product. A good human writer interviews you, rewrites your entire profile, and iterates with you — worth paying for if you need a full career-change narrative. Standout covers the three sections recruiter search actually matches on, instantly, and shows you a visibility score no human service provides. Many people run the $1 review first and only escalate to a writer if they still need one.
No. You paste your public profile URL (or type your details) — Standout never asks for account access, and there is no subscription. The visibility score is free; the 3 paste-ready rewrites are a one-time $1.
Standout has no affiliation with any vendor named above. Prices are as published on the dates checked and change over time — always confirm on the vendor's own site. Corrections to [email protected].

Type your name — or paste your LinkedIn URL — in the form above and get your 0–100 recruiter-visibility score free in 60 seconds, no sign-in, no account access. $1 unlocks exactly 3 paste-ready rewrites: a keyword-optimized headline, a rewritten About section, and your top 3 experience bullets reworded for recruiter search. One-time — no subscription. If you still want a human writer afterward, you'll walk in knowing exactly what to ask them to fix.
