Common questions

What makes a LinkedIn post actually get engagement in 2026?

Hook strength in the first line, specificity over abstraction, and a format match to what the LinkedIn algorithm is currently rewarding. NovaKit's LinkedIn Post Engine runs live research to surface current hook patterns before writing — generic AI tools use static training data.

Is NovaKit better than Taplio for LinkedIn writing?

They solve different problems. Taplio is a LinkedIn platform — scheduling, DM automation, analytics. NovaKit is a writing methodology tool — it produces higher-quality first drafts. The two are complementary: write with NovaKit, schedule with Taplio.

Does NovaKit write X (Twitter) threads too?

Yes. There is a separate Twitter / X Thread Engine skill ($9) that calibrates to X's threading format, hook conventions, and current engagement patterns — distinct from the LinkedIn Post Engine.
