Watch It Run

LinkedIn carousel, start to export

A narrated run through the product, cut to 48 seconds. It closes on a mockup of the finished post.

A narrated walkthrough: the topic goes in, the deck comes back written and designed, and the file exports at 1080x1080 px (1:1).

Read the transcript

0:00A LinkedIn carousel usually costs you an afternoon in a design tool, and most of that afternoon goes on layout rather than ideas.
0:06This one starts with a sentence. I typed the topic straight into the chat, then picked the Editorial look, which sets left-aligned type on a washed ground.
0:14It tells you what it is about to make and what it costs before it spends anything, then writes the whole deck in one pass.
0:20The finished carousel opens beside the chat, written and laid out, with the hook carrying slide one and every mistake on its own card.
0:27Then it exports as a 1080 by 1080 PDF, which is exactly the file LinkedIn wants for a native document post. No screenshotting, no resizing.
0:35Upload that PDF and it swipes in the feed like this. LinkedIn carousels pull up to three point seven times the engagement of a text-only post.
0:43That is the free LinkedIn carousel generator. Try it at swipethread.com.

LinkedIn Tips

How to Create High-Performing LinkedIn Carousels

Most LinkedIn carousel creators hand you a template to fill in. SwipeThread researches the topic, writes every slide, and exports the PDF LinkedIn wants

Best Practices

1Hook in first 3 lines visible above the fold: your first slide is your headline
28-12 slides is the optimal length for LinkedIn carousels
3End with a CTA or open-ended question to drive comments
4Avoid walls of text per slide: one idea per slide
5Use consistent brand colors and fonts across all slides
6Include a title slide, content slides, and a CTA slide

Posting Tips

Post Tuesday through Thursday, 8-10am local time for peak reach
Add alt text for accessibility (LinkedIn rewards inclusive content)
Post natively as a PDF upload, not as an external link
Use 3-5 relevant hashtags maximum
Write a compelling caption that adds context beyond the slides

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about creating LinkedIn carousels with SwipeThread.

Is SwipeThread free?

Yes. You get 3 carousels a day free, with no credit card, and the allowance resets every morning.

What dimensions does SwipeThread use for LinkedIn carousels?

LinkedIn carousels are exported as 1080x1080 px (1:1 square) multi-page PDFs, which is the native format for LinkedIn document posts.

Can I turn an X thread into a LinkedIn carousel?

That is the most common way people use SwipeThread. Paste the thread, and each post becomes a slide styled to look like the original tweet, exported as the PDF LinkedIn wants. The research and the hook carry over, so you are not rewriting the thread from scratch for a second audience.

Do I need LinkedIn Premium to post a carousel?

No. Document posts are available on any personal profile and any company page without a paid LinkedIn plan. You upload a PDF and LinkedIn renders it as a swipeable deck in the feed.

Will the slides match my company's brand?

Set a brand guide once with your colors, fonts, tone of voice, and any words you never want used, and every carousel after that comes out on brand. It matters more here than elsewhere, because a LinkedIn document post carries your name and your company page next to it.

How do I upload a carousel to LinkedIn?

SwipeThread exports your carousel as a PDF. On LinkedIn, click 'Start a post', then click the document icon to upload the PDF. LinkedIn will display it as a swipeable carousel.
