Write the follow-up post when votes land
Coflux AI turns your poll results into a post in your own voice.
A LinkedIn poll is one question of up to 140 characters, 2 to 4 answer options of up to 30 characters each, and a fixed length of 1, 3, 7 or 14 days. Every poll this tool gives you fits inside these limits.
| Rule | Limit | What it means for your poll |
|---|---|---|
| Question length | 140 characters | One question, no setup. Put the context in the text above the poll. |
| Answer options | 2 to 4 | Fewer options give a clearer result. Skip “Other”, it tells you nothing. |
| Option length | 30 characters each | The limit that trips most people up. Write options like labels, not sentences. |
| Poll length | 1 day, 3 days, 1 week or 2 weeks | Fixed when you post. It can't be extended later. |
| Media | None | A poll post can't carry an image, document, video or link preview. |
| Editing | Text above the poll only | The question and options are locked once it's live. |
Questions people have a real opinion on, with answer options that cover how they actually think. Load any of them into the editor above, then make it yours.

Shuffle ready-made polls by theme, or describe your topic and let Coflux AI write five polls for it.
Rewrite the question and options. Counters show what LinkedIn will accept before you open the composer.
Copy the poll, paste each part into LinkedIn's poll composer, and pick the length you chose here.
“How did you land your current job?” gets answers. “What's the future of work?” gets scrolled past. Experience is easier to vote on than predictions.
Options should cover how people actually think, without overlapping. If you'd need to explain an option, rewrite it.
A poll gets clicks; the comments are where the conversation happens. Ask people to explain their vote in the text above the poll.
Timely questions die in a day. Opinions on how people work keep collecting votes for a week or two.
Decide what you'll write when the results land. A poll with a follow-up post becomes content; without one it's just a number.
Votes are cheap. What builds your reputation is what you say once the results are in: what surprised you, where you disagree with the majority, what it means for the people who voted.
That's where Coflux AI helps. It knows your story, opinions and voice, so when you bring it the poll results it drafts the follow-up post the way you'd write it, then schedules it to go out on LinkedIn.
Free to try. No card. See your first result in under 5 minutes.
