What is AuthoredUp?
AuthoredUp is a toolkit for people who publish on LinkedIn, delivered as a Chrome extension that works inside the LinkedIn feed and as a separate web platform. The editor adds bold, italic, lists and emoji, shows a readability grade and previews how a post will look on desktop and mobile. A library of opening hooks, closing lines and reusable snippets supports drafting, and an AI assistant named Coauthor, which learns from a user's own posts, is listed as a closed beta. Drafts can be tagged, shared for review and placed on a calendar for scheduled publishing. The analytics side gathers a user's historical posts and reports impressions, reactions, saves, follower growth and the times that have performed well. Business accounts add multiple profiles, shared drafts and team reporting. The company says data is hosted in Germany and that it does not collect LinkedIn cookies.
