Report scoring

Turn placement results into a clear spam score.

Sendlander reports a 0 to 10 score beside inbox placement, spam hits, waiting seeds, provider breakdowns, and setup/content warnings.

Live: scoring, prioritized fixes, provider breakdowns, and segment breakdowns are available.

Workflow

Simple enough to run before every important send.

1

Run a seed-list placement test.

2

Compare inbox, spam, and missing results.

3

Use the score and fixes to decide what to change.

Guide

Use the result as evidence.

When to use this

Spam score checker is useful for teams that need a readable summary of placement and setup risk. The job is to turn inbox placement evidence into a simple 0 to 10 score with visible drivers, using evidence that is specific to the sender and message path under test.

The main risk is treating the score as a guarantee instead of reading the evidence behind it. Sendlander keeps the workflow grounded by tying the page back to real reports, real seed results, and visible diagnostic checks instead of generic deliverability advice.

What the report should prove

The useful evidence includes inbox percentage, spam hits, pending seeds, score confidence, component scores, and prioritized fixes. These signals help separate a broad sender problem from a provider-specific issue or a temporary pending state.

The checks to review are authentication, domain health, content, links, blacklist signals when available, and provider-level placement. The result should lead to one or two concrete fixes, not a vague list of every possible deliverability concern.

How to act on it

A practical workflow is to run a placement test, read the score components, fix the highest-risk drivers, then compare a follow-up score. After each meaningful change, rerun a comparable test so the team can tell whether placement improved.

Use this page as an entry point into the product, then save the report in the dashboard when the result matters. Saved reports make follow-up tests easier to compare and keep the next fix tied to evidence.

Is a spam score a guarantee?

No. It is a diagnostic summary. Mailbox providers can change placement behavior at any time.

What score will Sendlander use?

The current model is a 0 to 10 score derived from placement, authentication, domain health, content, link, provider, and segment evidence.
