Professional Bio Generator
Fill in your role, years of experience, specialties and a few achievements, then choose first or third person and a length. You get three ready-to-use versions at once: a website bio, a LinkedIn About section checked against the 2,600-character limit, and a speaker introduction with its speaking time.

Start with a verb ending in -ing: "helping small businesses grow online".
Start with a past-tense verb where you can: Led, Built, Won, Wrote…
Written as "lives in…, loves…". It is converted for first person.
How to use the Professional Bio Generator
- Enter your name, role and company, plus your years of experience.
- List your specialties and add 2 to 4 achievements, one per line, starting with a verb.
- Add an optional mission and personal note to make the bio more human.
- Choose first or third person, a pronoun and a length.
- Copy the version you need, or download all three as a Word file.
The structure of a strong professional bio
Good bios follow a simple order, from most to least important, so that even a reader who stops after one sentence knows who you are:
- Who you are: name, role, company and experience in one sentence.
- What you focus on: two or three specialties.
- Why it matters: what you help people or organisations do.
- Proof: concrete achievements, ideally with numbers.
- A human touch: one personal detail that makes you memorable.
- Call to action: how to connect or work with you.
Which bio to use where
| Where | Point of view | Typical length |
|---|---|---|
| Social media profile, event listing | Either | Short: 30–60 words |
| Company website team page | Third person | Medium: 80–130 words |
| Personal website About page | First person | Long: 150–250 words |
| LinkedIn About section | First person | Up to 2,600 characters; first 2–3 lines visible before "see more" |
| Conference program, press kit, author page | Third person | Short or medium |
| Speaker introduction (read aloud) | Third person | 30–90 seconds, about 65–200 words |
Speaking time is estimated as words ÷ 130 × 60 seconds, because 120 to 150 words per minute is a natural pace when reading aloud. Reading time uses about 238 words per minute, a common average for silent reading of non-fiction.
Frequently asked questions
Should a professional bio be in first or third person?
Third person ("Jordan is a UX designer…") is standard for company websites, conference programs, press kits and author pages, because someone else appears to introduce you. First person ("I'm a UX designer…") feels more personal and is the norm for LinkedIn, personal websites and freelance profiles.
How long should a professional bio be?
A short bio is one to three sentences (about 30 to 60 words) for social profiles and event listings. A medium bio of 80 to 130 words suits most websites. A long bio of 150 to 250 words works for an About page or a speaker page. LinkedIn's About section allows up to 2,600 characters.
What should I include in a bio?
Your name and role, your experience and specialties, one or two concrete achievements with numbers where possible, what you help people do, and a short personal detail. End with a call to action, such as how to contact or connect with you.
How long is a speaker introduction?
Most hosts read an introduction of 30 to 90 seconds. The tool estimates speaking time at about 130 words per minute, a comfortable pace for reading aloud, so a 100-word introduction takes roughly 45 seconds.
How should I write my achievements?
Start each line with a past-tense action verb and include a result: "Led the redesign of a banking app used by 2 million people" reads better than "Responsible for app redesign". Lines that start with a verb become full sentences; other lines are grouped into a highlights sentence.
Is my information stored anywhere?
No. The bios are written in your browser from your entries. Your last inputs are remembered only in this browser so you can come back and edit them.
