AuthoredUp's pricing page lists an editor with text styling, bullets and preview, unlimited drafts, snippets, 300+ hooks and post endings, 1-click post reuse, and content analytics. It does not list AI drafting from your own writing samples.
Individual is $19.95 per month, or $16.63 per month billed yearly at $199.50. Business is $14.95 per profile per month with a minimum of 3 profiles. Qalam Solo is $10 per quarter for one workspace, so one person pays less per quarter on Qalam. The two tools do different work, though, so price alone should not decide it.
If you already write your own posts and want styling, a hook library and quick reuse, AuthoredUp is built for that. Qalam's value is the first draft from your saved examples and the review and scheduling flow around it.
AuthoredUp offers a free trial with no card. Its pricing page does not state how long it lasts. Qalam's Free plan has no time limit and includes 5 AI posts a month.
