A portfolio that works as hard as you do.
The best writing portfolios aren't static pages that go stale the week after you build them. They stay current. They don't have dead links. And they let the work do the talking. Authory builds a portfolio like that from your bylines, and keeps it updated every time you publish something new.
1. Great portfolios don't have dead links.
Every piece you've published, saved permanently
Publications fold. Sites get redesigned. Articles get taken down. Authory saves a permanent copy of everything you've published, so your portfolio never has a broken link. Your archive is searchable and downloadable anytime.
Add newsletters, PDFs, and website work too
The strongest portfolios show the full range of what a writer does. Authory handles articles, newsletters, website copy, and PDF work samples, not just bylines on publication sites.
2. Great portfolios stay current without manual work.
Create a portfolio that updates itself
The portfolios that impress don't look like they were last updated six months ago. Authory adds your new work automatically as it's published — articles, podcasts, videos. Your portfolio is always current without you touching it.
Show your best work for every context
The best portfolios aren't one-size-fits-all. Create collections by beat, publication, or format. A health editor sees your health clips. A tech editor sees your tech work. One portfolio, many views.
3. Great portfolios grow on their own.
New work gets added automatically
Authory monitors your bylines across publications. When something new goes live, it gets added to your portfolio and your archive. You don't have to remember to update anything.
Let readers follow your work
An automated digest goes out on your schedule with links to your latest published work. Editors, colleagues, and readers who subscribe stay up to date without you having to send anything.
4. Great portfolios prove their impact.
See how your work performs across platforms
The best portfolios don't just show the work — they show its reach. See social media engagement for every piece you've published, even under other brands' names.
Organize your work your way
Group your work by topic, format, or publication. Send a custom view with every pitch, application, or introduction. The right clips for the right person, every time.

for those creating something worth saving.
We know that as a writer, your portfolio is never really done. There's always a new piece to add, a dead link to fix, a layout to tinker with. Most writer portfolios are permanently half-finished because maintaining them is a job in itself.
That's why we built Authory. So your portfolio takes care of itself, and you can get back to writing.
