AuthoredUp is a brilliant editor for polishing posts you've already written. But it has no AI and no idea engine, you bring every idea and every word. WordPush does the deciding, the drafting and the carousel design for you. Here's the honest comparison.
Pick AuthoredUp if
you already know what to post and enjoy writing it yourself, and you want the best-in-class formatting, preview, snippets and analytics layered onto LinkedIn at a low price.
Pick WordPush if
the hard part for you is deciding what to post and finding time to write it. WordPush surfaces the ideas, drafts them in your voice, designs the carousel and publishes, the parts AuthoredUp deliberately leaves to you.

Tells you what to post (idea engine)
AuthoredUp's 300+ hooks library gives you opener templates, but no idea sourcing. WordPush's Idea Hub surfaces topics from your industry every day.
Designs & publishes native carousels
AuthoredUp previews carousels you've built elsewhere; it doesn't design them. WordPush's Canvas builds and publishes them natively.
Post formatting & preview editor
AuthoredUp's formatting and live preview is more granular than WordPush's, this is its core strength.
Hooks / snippets library
Analytics
AuthoredUp's post and profile analytics are excellent. WordPush includes analytics on every plan too.
Scheduling
Publishes via the official LinkedIn API
AuthoredUp works inside LinkedIn as a browser extension. WordPush publishes through LinkedIn's official API: native posts to your profile or company page, with nothing installed in your browser.
Brand voice trained on your posts

Most LinkedIn tools stop at text. WordPush goes further. The built-in Canvas editor turns any Idea Hub topic into a fully designed LinkedIn carousel in minutes, no PDF download faff, no separate design tool, no Figma export.
Pick an Idea Hub topic. WordPush expands it into 5–10 slides instantly.
Your colours, your fonts, your logo, every slide, every time.
Fine-tune any slide. Move text, swap images, tighten copy.
No PDF download faff. Publishes straight to LinkedIn as a native carousel, through the official LinkedIn API, not a browser plugin.
Carousels & Canvas are included on the Pro plan (£79/mo)
AuthoredUp is genuinely excellent at what it sets out to do, and it is cheaper. Be honest about whether you need what WordPush adds.
AuthoredUp's in-LinkedIn editor, formatting controls and live post preview are more refined than WordPush's. If polishing the look of posts you write yourself is the job, it's superb.
AuthoredUp is $19.95/mo (less on a team or annual plan). WordPush starts at £49. If you only want an editor and analytics, AuthoredUp is cheaper.
No AI means every word is yours. Some people strongly prefer that. WordPush drafts for you (and you edit), which is the opposite philosophy.
Both plans come with a 3-day free trial. No card required to start.
