# I Tried AuthoredUp vs EasyGen: Features, Pricing, Cons, Which Is Better (2026)?

> AuthoredUp formats better, for a third of the price. EasyGen at least tries to write. Both make you sound like AI slop.

**By Aitijya Sarkar** - Published 2026-07-26 - Updated 2026-08-12 - 10 min read

I've spent close to six years ghostwriting LinkedIn content for 50 to 60 founders, coaches, and CXOs — somewhere north of 100 million organic views between them. Over those years I've run pretty much every LinkedIn tool on the market across dozens of client accounts, these two included.

So here's the short version:

Between AuthoredUp and EasyGen, AuthoredUp is the better tool in 2026 for most people: $19.95 a month against EasyGen's $59.99, formatting and preview that are cleaner by a distance, and analytics on your own account that go past LinkedIn's native view. EasyGen charges roughly triple for a one-shot form that hands back 2020-era broetry the current algorithm buries. The two barely overlap, which makes the call easy. EasyGen does keep two edges — it at least attempts to write the post for you, and with no Chrome extension it puts less of your LinkedIn account at risk than AuthoredUp does. Neither one hands you a post you'd publish unedited, though. AuthoredUp doesn't write at all, EasyGen writes like everybody else, and neither remembers who you are or looks anything up before drafting.

For drafts grounded in your unique POV and voice (ie not ai slop), I'd point you at Oiti, the AI clone for LinkedIn content, which writes from long-term memory and a Knowledge Base.

## AuthoredUp vs EasyGen at a glance

|  | AuthoredUp | EasyGen | Oiti — AI clone for LinkedIn content (my pick) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Best for | Formatting, previewing, analytics — you bring the words | A viral-format skeleton you'll rewrite yourself | Anyone who wants posts grounded in their own POV |
| Starting price | $19.95/mo ($16.63/mo billed annually) | $59.99/mo ($599.88/yr, about $50/mo) | $49/mo Creator - $79/mo Pro |
| Pricing transparency | Public pricing page, no login | Login-gated — the number appears only in an in-app "Upgrade to Pro" modal | Public on the page, no login |
| Free trial | Yes, no credit card required | Yes, 7 days | 7-day trial |
| Writes your posts? | No — "Coauthor" is a closed beta, applications shut | Yes — one-shot form, generic output | Yes, from long-term memory + Knowledge Base |
| LinkedIn's terms of service | Chrome extension — the category LinkedIn is pressuring | Plain web tool, no extension, low risk | Official LinkedIn APIs, no extension |
| Standout strength | Clean formatting, hooks library, own-account analytics | Produces something in one click | Memory + Knowledge Base that compound |
| Biggest weakness | Doesn't write; extension-category exposure | Expired playbook, triple the price, login-gated | LinkedIn-first; no native mobile app |
| Overall winner | ✓ | — | — (parallel pick, not the referee) |

Both prices captured May 2026. AuthoredUp also sells a Business plan at $14.95 per profile with a three-profile minimum.

## How I Tested AuthoredUp v/s EasyGen — My Testing Methodology

I've paid for or used both on real client work and my own account.

AuthoredUp I go waay back with — I used it in 2020 and 2021, mostly for the LinkedIn post preview, since I wanted to see how my post would look like on LinkedIn. I logged back in this year to see what five years had done to it. EasyGen I tried in 2025, after Ruben Hassid and Anisha Jain posted about it together; I onboarded and tried a real topic through it.

Here's what I weighed, and I weighted "does it do its own job well at a fair, visible price" highest:

1. **What each one is even for** — One formats, the other generates. Figuring out where they actually overlap, and where they just don't.
2. **AI content quality** — I ran a real topic through each and read what came back, line by line.
3. **Pricing and transparency** — The sticker price, and whether you can even see it before handing over an email.
4. **LinkedIn's terms of service** — A Chrome extension riding your account vs a plain web app, and what each does to your risk.
5. **Analytics** — Whose numbers you get: your own, or somebody else's.

## What Is AuthoredUp — the Ultimate LinkedIn Content Creation & Analytics Tool?

AuthoredUp is a Chrome-extension-based LinkedIn post formatter, previewer, and analytics tool, pitched on its homepage as "The ultimate LinkedIn content creation & analytics tool." When I logged back in, the pitch checked out: rich text styling, a live preview of what the feed will render, 300-plus hooks and post endings, unlimited drafts and snippets, and content analytics deeper than LinkedIn's native view.

![AuthoredUp homepage headlined "The ultimate LinkedIn content creation & analytics tool," with the line "Boost your LinkedIn growth with the secure platform designed for creators," a "Try now for free - No credit card required" button, and an editor-and-preview product shot below.](/comparisons/competitors/authoredup/homepage.webp) — AuthoredUp's homepage — "The ultimate LinkedIn content creation & analytics tool," over the editor-and-preview product shot.

What it doesn't do is write / create content.

It formats what you bring it — there's no shipped AI writer / content creator. An assistant called Coauthor sits in a closed beta with applications shut, which I'll get to.

## What Is EasyGen — Write LinkedIn Posts Like Creators With 100M+ Views?

EasyGen is a LinkedIn-only AI post generator, marketed heavily through creators like Ruben Hassid.

![EasyGen homepage headlined "Write LinkedIn posts like creators with 100M+ views," with the line "Stop guessing what works on LinkedIn. EasyGen uses real data from top 1% creators plus trending topic intelligence," a "Start 7-day trial" button, and its generator UI on the right.](/comparisons/competitors/easygen/homepage.webp) — EasyGen's homepage — "Write LinkedIn posts like creators with 100M+ views," over its generator UI.

The homepage promise is direct: "Write LinkedIn posts like creators with 100M+ views," using "real data from top 1% creators plus trending topic intelligence."

Once I was inside, it was a form-driven writing surface, a Trending and Creators List feed of high-performing posts from people you follow, a My Posts library, and a scheduler. No formatting layer, and nothing that remembers you between sessions.

You type a topic, it hands you a post.

Now on to testing both — starting with the BIG one, which is actually better at the content.

## 1. AuthoredUp vs EasyGen Content: Which Tool's AI Writing Is Better in 2026?

If the question is which one writes anything at all, EasyGen wins by default. It's the only one of the two that generates any content.

AuthoredUp has no AI writing layer. When I logged back in, the dashboard was pushing Coauthor, a writing assistant that "sits inside your editor, sees what you're writing, and helps you finish it your way." Then, right underneath in orange: applications to the beta are closed.

So AuthoredUp's answer to the writing question is a waiting list I couldn't even join.

![AuthoredUp's "Coauthor closed beta" panel — "A writing assistant that sits inside your editor, sees what you're writing, and helps you finish it your way," with an orange line reading "Unfortunately, coauthor beta applications are currently closed. Please check again later" above a greyed-out "Apply for beta access" button.](/comparisons/competitors/authoredup/product-screenshots/authoredup-coauthor-snippet.webp) — AuthoredUp's Coauthor — a writing assistant still in closed beta, with applications shut.

EasyGen does generate. I gave it a real topic — AI taking away jobs — and it fired back three drafts from a single form submission. No chat, no second pass. Here's what came back, verbatim: "AI is taking away jobs. / This change is happening fast. / Many fear losing their work. / AI is reshaping the job market." Then a numbered "6 ways to prepare for a future with AI," then a closing line that says nothing.

![EasyGen's My Posts editor: three draft cards dated Mar 19 2025, with the selected draft rendered in full — "AI is taking away jobs. / This change is happening fast. / Many fear losing their work. / AI is reshaping the job market." down through a numbered list of six ways to prepare for a future with AI.](/comparisons/competitors/easygen/product-screenshots/editing-dashboard.webp) — EasyGen's output — one sentence per line, then a numbered "6 ways to prepare" list. Broetry, in one click.

One sentence per line, every line a flat declarative.

That's broetry — the format that printed engagement in 2019 and 2020, and the one LinkedIn's 2026 algorithm now buries. Felix Hofmann, in Switzerland, left EasyGen a 1/5 on Trustpilot in August 2025:

> "I didn't find it useful — maybe it is in the future, but not worth the money today."
> — [Felix Hofmann, Switzerland — Trustpilot, 1/5, Aug 2025](https://www.trustpilot.com/review/easygen.io)

![Trustpilot review by Felix Hofmann (Switzerland), 1/5, Aug 15 2025, titled "Fraudulent service, be careful" — "I didn't find it useful - maybe it is in the future, but not worth the money today," and a note that he was charged immediately with no refund.](/comparisons/competitors/easygen/reviews/trustpilot-felix.webp) — Felix Hofmann (Switzerland) on Trustpilot — 1/5, Aug 2025.

So EasyGen wins on a technicality, because it's the only one that writes. But neither gives you a post worth publishing as it stands. AuthoredUp can't write, and EasyGen writes the same templated AI slop LinkedIn is actively penalising — with no memory of you, no idea what you believe, nothing looked up before it starts typing.

**Winner:** EasyGen, narrowly — it's the only one that writes at all. But that's the exact gap Oiti, the AI clone for LinkedIn content, closes: every draft grounded in your own POV, pulled from long-term memory and a Knowledge Base instead of a viral template. [Try Oiti free for 7 days, no usage limits](/) and run the same topic through both to see the difference.

**Oiti — Where Oiti is different:** Instead of a viral template, Oiti builds a Style Fingerprint from your own posts and drafts from long-term memory — so what comes back reads like you wrote it, not like everybody else.

![Oiti's writing-style clone — a "Style Fingerprint" distilled from 50 of a creator's analyzed LinkedIn posts, naming their patterns (the "Stop" command, the "But" pivot, the "Meanwhile" contrast), with a "Use this style" button.](/comparisons/competitors/oiti/product-screenshots/writing-styles.webp) — Oiti's writing-style clone — a Style Fingerprint pulled from 50 of your own posts, not a preset.

## 2. AuthoredUp vs EasyGen Pricing: What's the Best Value for Money?

AuthoredUp charges $19.95 a month for one profile, or $16.63 a month billed annually. What you're paying for is formatting, a hook library, and analytics.

![AuthoredUp's public pricing page: Individual plan $19.95/month (1 profile) and Business plan $14.95 per profile/month (3+ profiles), each with a "Start for free" button and "No credit card required."](/comparisons/competitors/authoredup/pricing.webp) — AuthoredUp's pricing — Individual $19.95/mo (1 profile), Business $14.95 per profile (3+), public and card-free.

EasyGen is $59.99 a month, or $599.88 a year — and there's no public pricing page at all. The /pricing route just bounces you to sign-in. I only saw the real number once I was inside the app and clicked upgrade, in a modal with two Subscribe buttons and nothing else on the screen.

![EasyGen's in-app "Upgrade to Pro" modal: Monthly ($59.99 / month) and Annual ($599.88 / year), each with a Subscribe button, over a blurred dashboard.](/comparisons/competitors/easygen/easygen-pricing.webp) — EasyGen's price — an in-app "Upgrade to Pro" modal, $59.99/mo or $599.88/yr, only visible after you sign in.

So that's roughly triple the price for the tool that does its own job worse, and you sign up before you see what it costs. The 7-day trial softens it, but mostly it just means you find out the writing is generic for free instead of for $59.99. On price and on transparency, AuthoredUp takes it — a third of the cost, and it shows you the number before you hand over an email.

**Winner:** AuthoredUp — a third of the price, and it shows you the number before you hand over an email.

Oiti lands at $49 a month here, in your own POV and voice, on one bill — no pairing a cheap formatter to an expensive generator and paying for both.

## 3. AuthoredUp vs EasyGen Formatting: Which One Previews Cleaner?

Now to the thing AuthoredUp was actually built for. This one isn't close, and AuthoredUp wins this one super easy.

The editor splits into a composer on the left and a live preview on the right, with device and theme toggles and full control over bold, italics, and line breaks. I could see exactly how the post would render like before publishing. EasyGen has no equivalent — it's a generator with a text box, not a formatting tool.

![AuthoredUp's editor: a styling toolbar and draft on the left, a live LinkedIn preview card on the right with mobile/desktop and light/dark toggles, a "Copy text" button, and a "Grade: 1 - 399 letters" readout.](/comparisons/competitors/authoredup/product-screenshots/authoredup-editor.webp) — AuthoredUp's editor — composer on the left, a live LinkedIn preview on the right, device and theme toggles.

Here's the catch, though: formatting is table stakes now.

Free formatters do this now, and most modern LinkedIn writing tools keep your formatting when you paste into LinkedIn. AuthoredUp's version is the most precise I've used — but precision at a job every tool now does for free is no reason to pay $19.95 a month.

AuthoredUp has exactly one Trustpilot review, a 1-star, and it goes straight at the thing they're best at:

> "Does not work. You do all your formatting, and then copy paste to LinkedIn and all formatting is gone... The paid version costs $200 a year and even if that means the copy paste works, it is insanely expensive."
> — [Jostein R. Hareide, Norway — Trustpilot, 1/5, Mar 2025](https://www.trustpilot.com/review/authoredup.com)

![Trustpilot review by Jostein R. Hareide (Norway), 1/5, Mar 22 2025, titled "Does not work" — you do all your formatting, then copy-paste to LinkedIn and the formatting is gone, and the paid version costs $200 a year.](/comparisons/competitors/authoredup/reviews/trustpilot-jostein.webp) — Jostein R. Hareide (Norway) on Trustpilot — 1/5, Mar 2025.

**Winner:** AuthoredUp, decisively — though every tool has formatting now.

## 4. AuthoredUp vs EasyGen and LinkedIn's Terms of Service: Which Is Safe?

Which brings up the most important question about AuthoredUp: is that extension safe? Here EasyGen gets its cleanest win.

It's a plain web app that generates text — no Chrome extension, and in my use, nothing that scraped or automated an account. Its own onboarding says so in bold: "EasyGen will never be connected to your LinkedIn, whatsoever." On an unrelated note, the same screen is also where the tool broke on me — "Setup failed: Unexpected end of JSON input," three or four retries before it let me through — but it's still safe.

![EasyGen's "Share your LinkedIn" onboarding step with the bolded line "EasyGen will never be connected to your LinkedIn, whatsoever," and a red error toast reading "Setup failed: Unexpected end of JSON input."](/comparisons/competitors/easygen/product-screenshots/onboarding-bug-setup.webp) — EasyGen's onboarding — "EasyGen will never be connected to your LinkedIn, whatsoever," beside a "Setup failed" error.

AuthoredUp works the other way round.

The Chrome extension is the product. When I signed up, the app told me that to unlock full functionality I had to connect my LinkedIn profile via the browser extension, because "the extension is how you can post and schedule your content, grab your published posts and enable your stats."

![AuthoredUp's "One last step" modal: "In order to unlock AuthoredUp's full functionalities, you must connect your LinkedIn profile via our browser extension," with an "Add extension from Chrome Web Store" button.](/comparisons/competitors/authoredup/product-screenshots/connect-chrome-extension-authored-up.webp) — AuthoredUp's "One last step" — you connect your LinkedIn through the browser extension to post, schedule, and enable stats.

AuthoredUp itself has always been well behaved. It doesn't automate likes, comments, connections, or DMs — that's exactly why it earned the reputation it has. The risk isn't in what it does. It's the category. LinkedIn keeps getting more hostile to extensions that ride on top of the platform, and Shield Analytics shut down in May 2026 when LinkedIn and Google clamped down on that whole class of product.

**Winner:** EasyGen — on pure account safety, it just doesn't have the surface.

But if what you actually want is safe and not slop, that's a different tool: Oiti, the AI clone for LinkedIn content, publishes and fetches analytics through LinkedIn's official APIs, no extension riding your account, while grounding each draft in your own POV. [Try Oiti free for 7 days, no usage limits](/).

## 5. AuthoredUp vs EasyGen Analytics: Which Gives You Better Data?

Last dimension: once the post is out, whose numbers do you actually get to look at? AuthoredUp wins this one.

It ships a dashboard for your account: connections, followers, reach, impact, a posting-times heatmap with hotspots and landmark posts, and a profile-growth timeline. That's more than LinkedIn's native view gives you, and it justifies a good chunk of the $19.95 on its own.

![AuthoredUp's Dashboard: 4.5K connections, 9.7K followers, 90.4K reached, 6.2K impacted, a "Posting times" heatmap with hotspots and landmark posts, and a profile growth timeline.](/comparisons/competitors/authoredup/product-screenshots/authoredup-dashboard.webp) — AuthoredUp's Dashboard — your own connections, followers, reach, a posting-times heatmap, and a growth timeline.

EasyGen's version points outward instead. You build a Creators List of people whose content performs, then click into one and get their posts ranked by an outlier index showing how far each beat that creator's own baseline.

![EasyGen's "Your Creators List": cards for Ruben Hassid, Pete Sena, Anisha Jain, Axelle Malek and others, each with an "Add to List" button.](/comparisons/competitors/easygen/product-screenshots/tracked-creators-list.webp) — EasyGen's Creators List — track other people's high-performing posts, not your own numbers.

The idea's fine, and the posts it surfaced did perform. But you only get the viral post and nothing that tells you why it worked, so you're left reverse-engineering it by eye — which mostly means copying the shape and pumping out more broetry.

**Winner:** AuthoredUp — if the question is how your own content is doing. EasyGen's feed is just inspiration.

**Oiti — The analytics you actually own:** Oiti reports on your own posts through LinkedIn's official APIs — impressions, reach, and engagement over 12 months — so you get real performance data and safe scheduling in one place, no extension.

![Oiti's Analytics dashboard — total impressions 484K, reach 109K, and 15.4K followers, with posts published, net followers gained, and average engagement rate charted over twelve months.](/comparisons/competitors/oiti/product-screenshots/analytics-dashboard.webp) — Oiti's own-account analytics on the official LinkedIn API — impressions, reach, and engagement over 12 months.

## Which Should You Pick — AuthoredUp or EasyGen?

**Pick AuthoredUp if** you write your own posts, or generate them somewhere else, and you want precise formatting, a live preview, a hooks library, and analytics at a visible $19.95 a month. The trial doesn't ask for a card, so checking costs nothing.

**Pick EasyGen if** you want a one-click viral-format skeleton you intend to rewrite yourself, you don't mind that the raw draft could've come from anyone, and you specifically don't want a Chrome extension near your LinkedIn login. The 7-day trial lets you confirm the output before $59.99 lands.

**Pick neither if** what you want is one tool that writes in your own POV and voice and formats it properly, instead of pairing a formatter to a generator and paying twice.

## When Neither AuthoredUp nor EasyGen Is the Answer: Try Oiti, the AI Clone for LinkedIn Content

Both tools miss the same thing, from opposite ends. AuthoredUp doesn't write at all — it formats what you paste in, so the hard part still happens somewhere else. EasyGen writes from a fixed viral template with no memory, a form that forgets you the moment you close the tab. Run them together and you're paying about $80 a month for one mediocre post.

That's the gap Oiti, the AI clone for LinkedIn content, is built for. Every time you write, it fires parallel fetches across your long-term memory and Knowledge Base, working out who you are, what you believe, and how you actually talk before a word hits the page. The memory absorbs every edit and instruction across sessions, so it gets more like you the more you use it.

![Oiti's chat on the left interviewing the author for their real story before writing, with the finished LinkedIn draft shown on the right.](/comparisons/competitors/oiti/product-screenshots/content-creation-flow.webp) — Oiti drafting a post in chat — it asks for your real story first, then writes it the way you actually talk.

The Knowledge Base ingests your past posts, PDFs, and videos, and researches your ICP's pain points on the live web.

![Oiti's Knowledge Base — a searchable table of 22 saved LinkedIn sources marked "Ready," with "Sync LinkedIn Posts" and "Add Material" buttons, under the line "Everything added here will be used as reference material by Oiti to ideate and create content."](/comparisons/competitors/oiti/product-screenshots/knowledge-base.webp) — Oiti's Knowledge Base — your posts, PDFs, and videos become reference material it pulls before it drafts.

![An Oiti-written draft grounded in live web research — sections on prices, affordability, first-time buyers, mortgage rates and inventory, each statistic underlined with an inline source chip (realtor.com, redfin.com, nahb.org, prnewswire.com).](/comparisons/competitors/oiti/product-screenshots/inline-citations.webp) — Grounded drafts, not guesses — each stat in an Oiti draft carries an inline source.

It publishes through LinkedIn's official APIs rather than an extension, and it formats cleanly, so the writing and the formatting happen in one place instead of across two subscriptions. It's $49 a month on Creator, $79 on Pro (three personal profiles plus ten company pages), on a 7-day free trial — no usage caps.

![Oiti's Analytics dashboard — total impressions 484K, reach 109K, and 15.4K followers, with posts published, net followers gained, and average engagement rate charted over twelve months.](/comparisons/competitors/oiti/product-screenshots/analytics-dashboard.webp) — Oiti reports on the official API — performance over time and your best posts, no extension.

If formatting posts you write yourself is all you need, AuthoredUp is cheaper, and a free formatter is cheaper still. But if your edge is that your writing reads like a specific human, that's the one thing neither of these two is built to protect.

## FAQ

### Is AuthoredUp cheaper than EasyGen?

Yes, and it isn't close. AuthoredUp is $19.95 a month for one profile, or $16.63 a month billed annually, with a public pricing page and a free trial that takes no credit card. EasyGen is $59.99 a month, or $599.88 a year, roughly triple. EasyGen also has no public pricing page at all — the /pricing route redirects to sign-in, and the real number only appears inside the app in an "Upgrade to Pro" modal once you go to subscribe. Both prices were captured in May 2026. AuthoredUp wins on price and on letting you see the price before you hand over an email address.

### Does EasyGen format posts as well as AuthoredUp?

No. Formatting and preview are what AuthoredUp was built for: a split editor with a live preview card, device and theme toggles, and precise control over bold, italics, and line breaks. EasyGen has no formatting layer to speak of — it generates text and previews what it generated. If clean formatting is the job, AuthoredUp does it properly. Formatting is no longer scarce, though. Free formatters handle it, and most modern writing tools keep your formatting intact when you paste into LinkedIn, so paying for formatting alone is a narrower call than it was a few years ago.

### Which is safer for my LinkedIn account, AuthoredUp or EasyGen?

EasyGen, and it's the cleanest win it has. It's a plain web app that generates text — no Chrome extension, nothing that scrapes or automates your account, and its own onboarding states it "will never be connected to your LinkedIn, whatsoever." AuthoredUp runs everything through a browser extension; connecting it is how you post, schedule, and enable your stats. AuthoredUp is well behaved and doesn't automate engagement, but LinkedIn keeps tightening on extensions that sit on top of the platform, and Shield Analytics shut down in May 2026 for exactly that reason. If that worries you, EasyGen avoids the surface entirely — and so does a tool built on LinkedIn's official APIs, [like Oiti](/).

### Does AuthoredUp or EasyGen actually make you sound like you?

Neither, really. AuthoredUp doesn't write at all, so any voice on the page is yours to begin with — it just formats it. EasyGen writes, but from a fixed viral template with no memory of you, which is why the output reads like templated AI slop LinkedIn now penalises rather than anything grounded in your own POV. If the whole point is drafts that carry your actual perspective and phrasing, that's a job for a tool built around a Knowledge Base and long-term memory — [Oiti drafts from both](/) and formats the result, on one subscription.

### Can I use AuthoredUp and EasyGen together?

You can. It just makes the gap obvious. You'd generate in EasyGen and format in AuthoredUp, paying about $80 a month across two subscriptions for one post that still reads like anyone's, because the generator has no memory of you and the formatter never touches the words. If you're pairing tools anyway, pair a formatter with a writer that's grounded in your own POV rather than a template. [Oiti does both in one place](/), drafting from long-term memory and a Knowledge Base and formatting the result.

### Is there a better alternative to both AuthoredUp and EasyGen?

For most people, yes. AuthoredUp is the better of these two, but it doesn't write, and EasyGen writes in a register that stopped working years ago. If you want posts grounded in your own POV and voice without pairing two tools, [that's what Oiti is for](/): long-term memory that absorbs every edit across sessions, and a Knowledge Base it drafts from, holding your past posts, PDFs, videos, and live research on the people you're writing for. It runs on LinkedIn's official APIs and formats cleanly. $49 a month on Creator, $79 on Pro for three personal profiles plus ten company pages, 7-day free trial, AI Clone in about 30 seconds.

## The verdict

AuthoredUp is the better tool of the two in 2026: cleaner formatting and preview, useful analytics on your own account, $19.95 a month on a page you can read without signing up, against EasyGen's $59.99 for a one-shot form that returns expired broetry. EasyGen's two edges stand — it attempts the writing, and with no Chrome extension it's the lower-risk of the two for your account.

If you write your own posts and want them to look right, AuthoredUp. If you want a throwaway viral skeleton and nothing near your LinkedIn login, EasyGen's trial is free to poke at. But if you want the post to actually carry your own POV and voice — the thing neither one does — that's the gap Oiti, the AI clone for LinkedIn content, fills. The AI Clone builds in about 30 seconds, and you can compare its draft against whatever EasyGen hands you before you decide.
