Startup recruiter reachouts are getting so boring

Every startup recruiter email is like “we are growing like crazy”, “come revolutionize X”, “we raised a massive insane 400M from random names”. There are no differentiators.
I just find them all just very very boring. There might be some good companies there but the emails are such a bore to read. I came from a startup so may be I am jaded.
I don’t know what a good email looks like anymore. How do you select companies to talk to? What type of email gets you excited?

For me I enjoy hearing about what’s going on and who is interested in my services, but only maybe 1/10 I’ll reply to and talk to if I like what I found with a few minutes of due diligence. I hear you that most of these startup roles are trash. I too feel a little burned out from talking to inexperienced “chief of staff” titles who have no recruiting experience and don’t know how to hire or even sell well. It starts to feel like a waste of time but it’s the only way, there’s no magic bullet.
