Does Your Email Copy Sound Like Spam?

Paste your subject line and email body and scan for the words and phrases that make spam filters suspicious — before your subscribers ever see them.

Runs entirely in your browser. No signup, no data leaves the page.

Scan your copy

Paste your subject line and email body below. The checker flags words and phrases spam filters have historically associated with junk mail, grouped by what they signal — hype, urgency, money claims, health claims, and formatting red flags.

Content clean? Have a specialist double-check it — the $49 Email Domain Trust Audit is a fixed-output report with risk notes and prioritized next steps.

After you scan

Trigger words are the fastest thing to fix, and the smallest part of deliverability. The rest is your sender reputation and your email authentication:

  1. Clean up the flagged phrases — rewrite hype claims as specifics ("save 4 hours a week" beats "make money fast"), and cut formatting flags like all-caps subject lines and stacked exclamation marks.
  2. Fix the infrastructure side — SPF, DKIM, and DMARC passing is what tells receivers your mail is legitimate, no matter what the copy says. Run the free check to see where your domain stands:

Verify the rest of the set

Words are only half the story — the infrastructure decides delivery. Check and generate the records that make receivers trust you, free, in your browser:

If you'd rather hand this to a specialist, submit your domain for the Email Domain Trust Audit — a fixed-output report with risk notes and prioritized next steps. When records are broken and you want them fixed, the 99 Mailbox Rescue gets them fixed within 48 hours, zero tech touch.

Frequently asked questions

What is a spam trigger word? A spam trigger word is a word or phrase that spam filters have historically seen in junk mail — "free", "guarantee", "act now", excessive exclamation marks. No single word sends you to spam on its own; filters score the whole message, but trigger words add up alongside weak sender reputation and missing email authentication.

Does my email text leave my browser when I scan it? No. The scan runs on your own device with JavaScript in this page. Your copy is never sent to Veldica or anywhere else — there is nothing to sign up for and no server involved.

Will removing trigger words fix my deliverability? It helps, but it is rarely the whole fix. Sender reputation, engagement, and email authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) decide most inbox placement. Think of trigger words as the part of the problem you can fix in five minutes while you work on the rest.

How is this different from a spam score test like mail-tester? Mail-tester style tools score a full sent message through real filters including SpamAssassin. This checker is a fast pre-send review of your copy alone — it catches risky wording early, but it cannot measure reputation, authentication, or how receivers will actually treat the message.

Why do legitimate emails still land in spam? Usually because of sender reputation (low engagement, spam complaints, bad list hygiene) or missing/broken authentication — not the words in the message. Run the free domain trust checker to see whether SPF, DKIM, and DMARC pass for your domain.
