Comparison · AuthoredUp
AuthoredUp gives the board a shared editor. The copy still belongs to each of them.
Of all the tools on this list, AuthoredUp is the one that most resembles a corporate product: a Business plan from 3 profiles up, admin, manager and member roles, and team analytics across every profile. Granted. What it sells is the editor and the numbers; the piece goes live through the browser extension, with the executive signed in to LinkedIn, and the copy is still written by him.
What this option does well
Cost, for a board already publishing
US$ 14.95 per profile per month on the Business plan, from 3 profiles up, and US$ 19.95 for a single profile. If your executives already write every week and what is missing is formatting and numbers in one place, the arithmetic does not come near ours.
Oversight of people already producing
Admin, manager and member roles, and team analytics across every profile. For a communications team that needs to keep track of people already producing on their own, it is what they need.
The editor
Formatting, preview and a library of hooks. For the executive who writes his own copy and gets stuck in the LinkedIn composer, it solves exactly that.
Criterion by criterion
How the piece goes live
AuthoredUp
Through the browser extension. The manual instructs you to keep AuthoredUp connected to the LinkedIn editor in order to publish, with the profile signed in.
Katalista
The official LinkedIn publishing API, authorised by the executive in the interface itself and revocable by him, without going through us.
Who produces the content
AuthoredUp
Each executive, in the editor. AuthoredUp supplies formatting, preview, hook and closing templates, drafts and a calendar.
Katalista
We do. The angle arrives proposed and argued for, written in his voice from an immersion interview and a five-minute voice note, and he approves it before it goes out.
What the board sees
AuthoredUp
Team analytics across every profile and page, with admin, manager and member roles, on the Business plan from 3 profiles up.
Katalista
Coverage per executive against the contracted cadence, with a consolidated report. The question we answer is whether each of them is publishing what was agreed.
Who writes the compliance rules?
AuthoredUp
Whoever publishes, on the spot. What the team plan covers is shared drafts, a calendar and per-profile analytics.
Katalista
Your marketing team, once, with legal validating. They become verifiable rules applied to every piece before it reaches the executive.
Whose time this takes
AuthoredUp
The executive's: writing, formatting and scheduling each piece.
Katalista
Ten minutes a week — the voice note and the approval — and the rest of the process runs without him.
Who answers if nothing goes out
AuthoredUp
The executive. The calendar records what was scheduled.
Katalista
We propose the angle, coverage is visible on the dashboard before it becomes a gap, and your team can run his dashboard by delegation.

In one line
AuthoredUp solves the half that starts with the copy already written: formatting, a calendar, per-profile numbers and an admin who can see everyone. The half that stalls a board is the one before it — the angle, the voice, the check and the week that went blank. If your executives already write, it is cheaper than we are and it does what it promises.
