The Recommendation Budget
Paste a piece of yours. We’ll tell you how many separate things you’re asking of your reader, whether that’s past the point where adding stops helping, and which one carries the result.
Your email, to open the tool
We send you a 6-digit code. Your email is used to give you access and to count your uses, so nobody can run the tool without limit. It is never attached to what you analyse.

What you just saw is one part of it. The Myelin is the whole kit: the auditor that rewrites the entire piece and scores it, the jurisdiction-aware risk checker, and the idea generator. Leave your email and your access arrives within a few hours, with 10 analyses on it.
No credit card, no expiry date, no sales call. The 10 analyses wait until you use them.
We send you the access and, every so often, a real piece analysed with these tools. Unsubscribe from any issue.
Why the number matters
A meta-analysis by Wilson et al. across 150 reports found a curvilinear relationship between the number of recommendations in a message and the behaviour change it produces: a moderate number produces the greatest change, and past that point adding correct recommendations produces less change than saying less would have. The effect is strongest in low-motivation contexts and public communication — exactly where health content on social media lives. There is no fixed number: the point moves with your audience and your format.
What this tool doesn’t do
It counts and weighs the load. It doesn’t rewrite your content, doesn’t say which of your recommendations collapse into a single principle, doesn’t say who each one applies to, and doesn’t set the threshold at which a doubt justifies a consultation. It also doesn’t judge whether what you claim is clinically correct.
What we keep from what you paste, and what we don’t
Nothing of your text survives. It isn’t stored, isn’t reused, doesn’t train anything.
Your email is used for two things: to give you access, and to count how many times you use each tool in a day, so one person can’t run it without limit. That is all we keep next to it: your email, the tool and the day. Not what you analysed.
Separately, with no email and dated by day, we keep the subject as two or three generic tags — “vitamin d supplementation”, “intermittent fasting” — and the class of finding that came out. That is what lets us write about the mistakes that repeat across medical content. Nothing links those rows to your email.
We also keep a fingerprint of your connection. It is not your IP: it is a code computed from it with a key only we hold, and without that key there is no way back to the IP.
The newsletter is optional. If you don’t tick the box, you get the code and nothing else, and the tools work exactly the same.
When you want to fix it, not just see it
The Myelin’s auditor takes this same analysis further: it ranks your recommendations, absorbs the overlapping ones into principles with their scope declared, says who each one applies to, and writes the consultation threshold.
