Honest comparison on 10 criteria: pricing, post editor, virality prediction. Clear verdict for your profile.
AuthoredUp edits your posts. LinkPost generates 25 scored variants + 33 measured tactics.
The honest comparison between LinkPost (€99/month, proprietary virality prediction algorithm, 1M+ posts analyzed, 33 measured tactics with personal stats) and AuthoredUp ($19 → $79/month, LinkedIn editor + multi-account analytics). 10 scored criteria, clear verdict based on your profile (creator vs ghostwriter).
LinkPost does everything AuthoredUp does on content (generation, post preview, scheduling, analytics), but with a proprietary virality prediction algorithm: 25 variants per topic instead of 1, scoring on 300+ factors before publication, 27 personal criteria learned on your style. Plus Spy Mode, AI Strategist and Dataset X-Ray. Worth noting: AuthoredUp keeps the edge on entry price ($19/month) and ghostwriter-friendly editor UX.
"I went from around 12,000 or 13,000 weekly views to over 45,000 — a 4× on my stats in just 15 days."
| # | ID | Likes/post before | Likes/post after | ×Avg | Best post before | Best post after | ×Max |

A viral B2B LinkedIn post brings 1 to 3 qualified leads on average. AuthoredUp at $19/month gives you a quality editor but leaves you guessing what will land. LinkPost at €99/month generates 25 variants per post, tells you which one to publish, and learns your style. The ROI tips the moment you publish to drive business rather than to write faster.

AuthoredUp is first and foremost a LinkedIn editor, not an AI content generator. You write your posts manually (or with ChatGPT alongside), AuthoredUp helps you format and preview them. LinkPost works differently: you give an idea, we generate 25 variants calibrated on different angles (storytelling, controversy, data, expertise, punchy hook, emotional opener). Each variant is then scored on 300+ factors. You see immediately which one has the highest probability of taking off. You publish that one.
25 scored variants vs no main AI generation. LinkPost wins clearly on this criterion.
It's the core of LinkPost V2. Before you click Publish, the algorithm analyzes your post on 300+ factors, including 27 learned on your past posts (average length, hook structure, question density, CTA types, emoji frequency, etc.). Not market averages. Your stats. Your patterns. Your best hooks. The algo also tells you what to fix. Trained on 1M+ LinkedIn posts and aligned with LinkedIn Engineering's public research ("Engineering the next generation of LinkedIn's Feed", Hristo Danchev, March 12, 2026). AuthoredUp does not offer this functionality.
Feature absent from AuthoredUp. The structural gap between the two tools.
This is where AuthoredUp wins outright, and we have to be honest. AuthoredUp built itself around the LinkedIn editor: multi-format preview (mobile, desktop, sponsored), advanced formatting (bold, italic, bullets), collaborative editing, keyboard shortcuts for ghostwriters. If your daily workflow is writing and formatting posts for clients, AuthoredUp has one of the best editor UX on the market. LinkPost integrates a functional editor and preview, but it's not the center of the product.
AuthoredUp wins on editor UX and post preview quality. LinkPost is focused on scoring and generation.
AuthoredUp doesn't have continuous per-creator monitoring. You can dig manually through their hooks library for inspiration. LinkPost does active monitoring: you pick a LinkedIn creator in your niche, we monitor them non-stop and surface their real controversy level, TOFU/MOFU/BOFU mix, most profitable topics, viral tactics, audience emotional response per post, best publishing days, whether they're in a POD, and the top 10 most engaged profiles around them.
No equivalent at AuthoredUp. You learn from those who succeed instead of copying blind.
AuthoredUp doesn't offer auto-generated editorial planning. LinkPost goes further: you ask for your monthly editorial plan, the AI Strategist runs hundreds of parallel queries on its 1M+ post DB, your personal history, and real-time industry news. Output: 30 posts built on what actually works in your niche, internally coherent, ready to publish. 1 post idea per day, a full month of structured editorial, in 2 clicks.
Strategic planning vs piece-by-piece editing.
AuthoredUp has a browsable hooks library with direct copy-paste, practical for ghostwriters briefing clients. LinkPost goes several levels further: 33 measured virality tactics (22 attention tactics + 11 rules), organized in 7 categories (Attention, Rhythm, Engagement, Emotion, Credibility, Cognition, Distribution). For each tactic: examples from real high-performing LinkedIn posts, YOUR personal stats (how many of your posts use this tactic, your average likes with vs without), and the measured impact on your performance. You can filter by hook, lead magnet, CTA type. The X-Ray mode in the editor points directly to each missed tactic while you write. Full public documentation: linkpost.gg/cheat-sheet.
AuthoredUp = static browsable library. LinkPost = 33 measured tactics + personal stats on your posts + direct integration with scoring and editor.
AuthoredUp has solid analytics, especially for multi-account ghostwriters (aggregated view, client comparison, reporting export). LinkPost decodes your posts at a level no other tool on the market reaches: business funnel mix (TOFU/MOFU/BOFU) per post, analysis of 100% of comments (sentiment, controversy, your audience's emotional response), identification of your real best post (1 user out of 3 discovers it's not what they thought), niche benchmark. The algorithm also PREDICTS the emotional response of your posts BEFORE publication: not just a numerical score, a behavioral projection of the sentiment they will trigger. And the same depth of analysis applies to any LinkedIn creator via Spy Mode: you see their funnel mix, audience sentiment, emotional triggers. AuthoredUp gives client reporting. LinkPost gives behavioral science.
AuthoredUp = client reporting (solid multi-account). LinkPost = behavioral science (TOFU/MOFU/BOFU + 100% comments + emotion prediction + Spy Mode on any creator).
AuthoredUp specialized in ghostwriting: Team plan optimized for agencies managing multiple client LinkedIn accounts, granular permissions, approval workflows, multi-client branding. LinkPost integrates multiple writing profiles + unified calendar, but stays focused on content creation (not agency management). If your business model is managing 10-30 LinkedIn accounts for clients, AuthoredUp Team is better suited to this workflow.
AuthoredUp wins on agency multi-client management. LinkPost suits 1-5 accounts in parallel.
If your job is writing LinkedIn posts for clients, AuthoredUp is the reference tool. Editor + preview + hooks library + multi-account + client reporting: everything is calibrated for your workflow. LinkPost would generate 25 variants but that's not what helps when you want to write THE post for THE client in THE brand voice.
A single viral post can bring you 5 to 15 demo requests. You don't have time to publish blind or dig through a hooks library. LinkPost generates 25 variants, tells you which one will land, and you publish that one. Over 90 days, the ROI of a single successful post pays for 6 months of subscription at €99/month.
You want to understand WHY your posts work to scale your output. Spy Mode on top creators in your niche, Dataset X-Ray on your own posts, AI Strategist for monthly planning. AuthoredUp helps you write better, LinkPost helps you decide better what to publish.
If your model is managing 10-30 LinkedIn accounts for clients (agency ghostwriting), AuthoredUp Team is better suited: approval workflows, multi-client branding, reporting per account. LinkPost suits 1-5 accounts but loses the agency UX edge at scale.
Pick LinkPost if you publish to generate business through inbound content, and every post matters. The difference with AuthoredUp on content creation is that we don't give you a better editor, we generate 25 calibrated variants scored on 300+ factors and tell you which one to publish. Science replaces intuition. On the 20 most active users: x1.93 likes over 60 days, x3 on their best post.
Pick AuthoredUp if you're a ghostwriter (you or your agency manages client LinkedIn accounts), if you want the best LinkedIn editor with advanced post preview and hooks library, and if your budget is under $30/month. It's the most mature tool for the ghostwriting and multi-client agency use case.
