Five real before/after experience-bullet rewrites for product designers and UX designers — the befores are representative design bullet lists (UX, mobile, healthcare, design-systems), constructed the same way as Standout's 2026 benchmark corpus, from no bullets at all to “created wireframes and prototypes” task lists, and every after is the opening of the first reworded bullet the live audit engine actually delivered for that profile.

Design bullets describe the artifacts, not the effect: “Created wireframes and prototypes”, “Design app screens and marketing pages”, “Participated in design critiques”. Every designer alive can claim those lines, which is exactly why they match nothing. Design recruiters search craft terms (UX design, design systems, user research, Figma, accessibility) plus the environment (B2B SaaS, mobile, enterprise) — and the proof recruiters believe is a moved metric: drop-off cut in half, handoff time down 40%, audit issues cleared. Designers measure their work in usability sessions and shipped flows; the bullets should say so with numbers.
[action verb that signals ownership] + [keywords recruiters search: tools, segment, discipline] + [one number that proves the outcome]
LinkedIn's search matches the literal text of your experience bullets, and recruiters skim them in seconds. So each bullet has two jobs at once: carry the exact terms a search filters on (the stack, the segment, the discipline), and prove the work moved a number (latency, pipeline, activation, spend). Duties do neither — “Responsible for…” bullets were flagged on half the benchmark. Every rewrite the engine returned below opens with the verb, keeps the keywords, and lands on the number.
Each before is a representative design bullet list, constructed the same way as the benchmark corpus — this family isn't in the published 50-profile benchmark, so no family median is reported, and each score is the one the live engine returned for that profile in the family's September 29, 2026 scoring pass (the same score its headline-examples page publishes). Each after is the verbatim opening of the first reworded bullet the same live engine delivered for that exact profile on September 29, 2026 — the full top-3 bullet rewrite is what the $1 review ships.
(no experience bullets at all — the benchmark's “no usable bullets” failure: nothing for recruiter search to match, no proof of scope for a recruiter who does land here)

Editorial patterns, not engine output: complete bullet structures matching the shape of the rewrites above. Copy one, replace the [brackets] with your own verbs, tools, and numbers — or let the engine reword your actual top 3 bullets from your real profile for $1.
[Led/Designed/Shipped] end-to-end [UX / product design] for [flow or surface] across [platforms: web, iOS/Android] in [environment: B2B SaaS, healthcare], [outcome: cutting drop-off X%, lifting task success from X to Y] validated in [N usability sessions].
Craft keyword + environment + a moved metric — the engine opened every design rewrite in this set with exactly this shape.
[Built/Run] the [company] design system — [N components], [N product teams], [N engineers consuming it] — [system outcome: handoff time −40%, WCAG 2.2 AA with 200+ audit issues cleared].
Design-systems work is uniquely countable: components, consumers, compliance. Publish the counts — 'maintain the icon library' matches nothing.
[Hired/Mentored/Led] [N] designers [scope: through onboarding, to promotion, as a pod], while owning [surface or system] — [team outcome: critique practice shipped, N launches, quality bar you can name].
For lead/manager targets: give the leadership bullet a scope and an outcome, and don't let it sit last — the engine promoted it to bullet one on both senior profiles here.

The before bullets are from a corpus constructed with the same rules as Standout's 2026 LinkedIn Visibility Benchmark — representative profiles, modeled on common real-world LinkedIn patterns: constructed and fictional (invented names and companies), never scraped, because LinkedIn blocks anonymous profile access and Standout's own product promise is no account access. This family is not part of the published 50-profile benchmark, so no family median is reported; each score is the verbatim score the live production engine — the exact code path behind every visitor's free audit — returned for that profile in the family's September 29, 2026 scoring pass, and each after is the verbatim bullet rewrite opening the same engine returned for that profile on September 29, 2026. Full methodology and limitations are in the complete report; raw data is available to any journalist via [email protected].
