Despite AuthoredUp’s popularity as the go-to tool for LinkedIn content creation, it does present certain disadvantages.

The most significant of these is that AuthoredUp recently became a paid tool. While you can try AuthoredUp for free, each monthly or yearly subscription option comes at a price. 

So, if you require some of the features that AuthoredUp offers to quickly and easily automate your content creation on LinkedIn but want a free alternative, look no further.

The #1 AuthoredUp Alternative: Kleo

Enter Kleo, the 100% free browser extension created to give you the capabilities of   AuthoredUp for LinkedIn… and even more.

By installing Kleo on LinkedIn, you are able to:

• Preview your content before posting

• Improve the look of your content

• Study any creator’s content

• Use filters to better navigate posts

• Locate specific posts in one search

• View a range of popular posts

Preview your content before posting

AuthoredUp lets you see how your post will look in the feed so it can be made more engaging. 

Likewise, Kleo allows you to write or paste the first draft of your content into the post editor to see what it will look like on all devices (including desktop, tablet and mobile) so you can edit and optimise the content as required.

Improve the look of your content

With AuthoredUp, you are able to style your post to get the reader’s attention. 

Similarly, Kleo enables you to get the look you want by structuring and formatting the content in ways that catch the reader’s eye. Then, add bold text, lists, and more for better readability. 

When you are happy with the final version, simply hit ‘post’ or schedule the content to be posted on a specific day at a specific time.

And there’s more

In addition to AuthoredUps features, Kleo allows you to:

• Study any creator’s content

• Use filters to better navigate posts

• Locate specific posts in one search

• View a range of popular posts

Study any creator's content

With Kleo, you can zoom in on your favourite LinkedIn creators to get better insight into their content and standout posts.

Simply:

1. Enter the creator’s name in the LinkedIn search bar

2. Open Kleo’s browser extension

3. Quickly see a creator’s entire posting history load

Use filters to better navigate posts

Kleo enables you to quickly sift through its library of past LinkedIn posts by filtering the content based on specific date, format, popularity and comments received.

Locate specific posts in one search

Kleo puts an end to endless scrolling and frustrating searches by helping you finally find *that* LinkedIn post. 

All you need to do is enter the relevant keyword(s) into the search bar, and Kleo will do the rest.

View a range of popular posts

Kleo constantly shows quality content by randomly selecting and highlighting top-performing posts in the sidebar. 

You can then click on and view/look through these posts in more detail while browsing your LinkedIn feed.

Just as you would on a creator’s profile, you can then tailor these post selections to your own viewing preferences. 

Click on the dropdown boxes to view content based on post type, timeline, likes or comments that a post received. 

To refresh the range of posts showing in your feed, hit the shuffle button in the top right-hand corner.
