About the Recommendation Letter Generator
Recommendation Letter Generator drafts a reference letter in the first person from what you know about someone. Write how you know them, for how long, their strengths and examples of what they did, choose whether the letter is for a former employee, a student or a colleague and add their name. The tool writes a letter of about 300 words with an opening, two paragraphs of specific strengths based on your examples, a clear recommendation and an offer to answer questions. It never invents dates, grades, awards or results, and it leaves placeholders for missing details.

What readers look for
Admissions teams and employers read many letters, and the ones that stand out are specific. Replace general praise with examples: a project the person led, a problem they solved, a way they helped others. The more concrete the stories you provide, the more convincing the letter.
Gather your material
Before you write, note how you know the person and for how long, three strengths and one or two examples for each, and any results you can state truthfully. Paste these into the box. The draft arranges them into the usual structure.
- Relationship and length of time
- Three strengths with examples
- Results, with real numbers if you have them
- Why you recommend them for this next step
Finish it properly
Fill in every placeholder, check dates and spellings of names, and send the letter in the way the receiver asks, often directly to them. If you are writing for a student, add the programme's name. The Personal Statement Writer helps the applicant with their own side.

Frequently asked questions
What should a recommendation letter include?
Who you are and how you know the person, specific strengths with examples, the results they achieved and a clear statement that you recommend them.
How long should it be?
One page, about 300 to 400 words, is usual.
Should I mention weaknesses?
A recommendation is meant to support the person. If you cannot do that honestly, it is fair to decline to write one.
Do I have to sign it?
Yes. Add your name, title and contact details, and sign the letter or send it from your work email. Many schools and employers contact the writer to confirm.
Can I send the generated text as it is?
Please edit it. A letter is most useful when it contains your own memories, details and voice, and the reader can tell it is genuine.
