Shelf-ready art
Real cover art with genre-appropriate typography — not a bare AI image with no title.
Print-quality
Generated at a standard that holds up as a thumbnail and in print.
Any genre
Mystery, romance, sci-fi, non-fiction, children’s and more — tuned to your book’s tone.
How it works
Describe your idea
Type one line — a theme, topic, or the kind of book you have in mind. No account, no card.
Name the genre
Pick the genre so the art direction and typography match reader expectations.
Get your cover
A finished cover concept appears in seconds. Refine it in the full cover studio next.
A cover that survives the thumbnail
On Amazon, your cover is first seen at postage-stamp size. Bare AI images with no title fail there. This tool produces covers with real, legible typography and genre-correct art direction — the same approach behind the covers on our published books.
From concept to print-ready wrap
This sample is the front concept. The full cover studio expands it into a complete print-ready wrap — front, spine and back sized to your exact trim and page count.
