How to Solve it

A step-by-step walkthrough of this puzzle

  1. 1

    Runner Leads On 🏃

    Runner, line, and desk first look like things connected with being at the head or entrance of something. A leading runner, a foremost line, and an entrance desk all support that reading.

  2. 2

    Teeth Reveal Front 🦷

    Teeth makes a purely positional reading less convincing: “front teeth” is a fixed everyday phrase, not just teeth located at an object's front. The pattern is a shared word placed before each clue: “front.”

  3. 3

    Row Seat Fits 💺

    Row seat completes “front row seat,” while the first three clues produce “front-runner,” “front line,” and “front desk.” All five are familiar combinations.

The pattern

Words that come after “front”.

What connects Runner, Line, Desk, Teeth and Row seat? That's Pinpoint #815, the LinkedIn puzzle from Friday, July 24th, 2026. Tap any clue above to open a nudge for that word, read the final hint if you want one more push, then reveal the category. Below the answer there's a full walkthrough: the wrong turn these clues invite, the clue that breaks it open, and what each word actually pairs with.

What connects Runner, Line, Desk, Teeth and Row seat?

The answer to Pinpoint #815 is Words that come after “front”. Every clue in the set — Runner, Line, Desk, Teeth and Row seat — belongs to “Words that come after “front””, which is the thread you're looking for.

If you got there in one or two clues, the giveaway was almost certainly Runner paired with Line — that combination rules out most of the categories a single word could belong to. The clue-by-clue breakdown above the fold shows exactly where each word lands.

How Pinpoint works

RuleDetail
GoalGuess the category that connects all five clue words (for example, “Apple, Dell, Acer, HP” → computer brands).
Clues reveal one at a timeYou start with one word and get another after each wrong guess, up to five — the fewer you need, the better your score.
GuessesType the category; the game tells you if you're right. You have a limited number of tries.

Solving a clue set like this one

  • Put the first two clues side by side before guessing anything. Runner on its own fits a dozen categories; Runner plus Line usually fits one or two.
  • If your first theory dies on clue three, don't patch it — throw it out. A theory that needs an exception for one clue is the wrong theory.
  • Check for a shared word before you check for a shared topic. Pinpoint loves sets where every clue sits in front of (or behind) the same hidden word.
  • Say each clue out loud. Homophones and phrases hide in plain sight when you only read them.

How Pinpoint scoring works

You see one clue to start and earn another after every wrong guess, up to five. Solving on clue one is the best possible result and solving on clue five still counts as a win, so there's no reason to rush a guess you're not confident in — a wrong answer costs you a clue you can't get back.
