## What is BookFoundry?

You have a book in you. BookFoundry gets it out.
Type one idea and watch it become a complete book: structured chapters that flow from the first page to the last, a designed cover, and files you can upload to Amazon KDP.
No blank page. No stalled draft. A real book, start to finish.

ONE IDEA BECOMES A WHOLE BOOK
Tell BookFoundry what your book is about. It builds the full manuscript, chapter after chapter, each one picking up where the last left off, so the last chapter remembers the first.

EVERY KIND OF BOOK
Novels and fiction. Nonfiction. Memoirs, family history and life stories. Children's and picture books. Short story collections. Screenplays. Or open a blank project and build it your way. Preserve a grandparent's story. Make a bedtime book for your kid. Write the novel you have carried for years.

AS SIMPLE OR AS DEEP AS YOU LIKE
Answer four questions and start writing. Or open the full blueprint: characters with wants, wounds and arcs, a relationship map, world rules and prose controls. Continue a novel as book two and the cast, world and voice carry over.

ALREADY HAVE A DRAFT? BRING IT
Import DOCX, EPUB, PDF, TXT or Markdown and keep working on it here: edit it, analyze it, translate it, narrate it and export it like any book you started here.

READ YOUR MANUSCRIPT BEFORE YOUR READERS DO
Manuscript Analysis counts what can be counted: chapter and sentence statistics, empty or duplicate chapters, leaked markup, filler words, and an estimate of where a shopper's free sample runs out. The contradiction check reads the whole book and quotes both passages when it says two different things about the same person or fact. It never rewrites a word. Every change stays yours.

AI DETECTOR AND HUMANIZE
Check how a passage reads with the built-in detector: a verdict, a sentence-by-sentence heatmap and a plain explanation. Then rewrite it in a human voice, anchored on a fingerprint saved from your own writing.

EDIT EVERY CHAPTER, YOUR WAY
Generated does not mean final. Open any chapter in the rich-text editor, rewrite a passage, change a word across the whole book for free, reorder chapters, and snapshot a version you can restore.

YOUR COVER, DESIGNED IN-APP
Pick from generated covers, upload your own image, or compose one in Cover Studio with layouts, text effects, fonts and image layers. Then set the interior: 23 typeset themes, drop caps, scene breaks and spacing, previewed in real device frames.

TURN YOUR BOOK INTO AN AUDIOBOOK
Give your finished book a voice, then download it as M4B, M4A or MP3.

REACH READERS IN OTHER LANGUAGES
Translate your book and get a natural, native-sounding result. Not literal. Not stiff. Writing that reads like it was written in that language.

READY FOR THE STORE
Export EPUB, DOCX, print PDF and your cover at no extra cost. Get a store listing written for you: description, keywords and categories checked against the real Amazon KDP tree. Estimate page count and royalties first. Or publish it as a public page and share the link.

CREATOR STUDIO
Writing beyond books? A workspace per channel for scripts, outlines, threads and newsletters in your voice.

FREE TOOLS, NO ACCOUNT
Outline generator, KDP royalty calculator, audiobook length, children's word count, memoir questions, first-page analysis. No signup, no AI.

MADE FOR iPHONE AND iPAD
A clean, distraction-free writing space, in 18 languages, with in-app support ready to help 24/7.

Your book does not have to stay a someday thing. Start it today.

### 1/5 — 1 free credit not free

*2026-07-12*

It said starting a subscription would earn one credit.  I started the subscription. I had zero credits.  Whether there's some kind of misunderstanding in what's being said, or just playing wrong information, it leaves zero trust from what is otherwise very expensive subscription and credit price, seemingly two separate fees, a user needs to pay for combined.

[Update]
It will NOT let me delete my account even though this is legally required.  Do not trust this app!

[Update]
The mailing list they sign you up for upon creating your account CANNOT be unsubscribed from.  Their site displays an error that the unsubscribe link has expired.  This is despite getting the email less than 2 hours ago.  This is also illegal.

### 1/5 — Free trial isnt free

*2026-06-06*

Free trial only free in that you have the app but cant do anything until you gibe them a considerable amount of money. Does it work dunno. Not paying to test. Maybe its great or maybe they know its not and thats why they want money first.

**Developer response:** Fair point, and we’re glad you brought it up. Here’s a direct answer, and we’re happy to let the product speak for itself.

You asked if it actually works. You don’t need to spend anything to find out. Go to bookfoundry.ai and download a complete book our system wrote, the full file, free, with no signup required. A company hiding a weak product doesn’t hand people a finished book to inspect. We do it confidently because we stand behind every page.

The charge only starts when you create your own book, and the reason is simple: generating a full-length book takes real computing power. That cost goes into creating the work itself, not into putting up a paywall before you can see the quality.

Whether you’re writing a memoir, biography, personal letters, or even a full novel with detailed characters, emotions, scenes, pacing, and story structure, the goal is the same: to create something that actually feels like a real book, not stitched-together AI text. That’s the part we obsess over. Every detail matters to us, from the tone of the writing to the flow of each chapter.

You receive a finished file ready to read or publish, and if you ever hit a snag, our support team is available 24/7 inside the app.

Read the free book first, then decide for yourself. We think it’ll win you over.
