Question 1How does it work?+

You choose a service package, create your client account, and complete an intake form about the book you want to create. The intake lets you describe the reader, working title, chapter ideas, tone, goals, notes, source material, and content links such as articles, transcripts, podcasts, videos, or documents. The system then uses that material as the foundation for an AI-assisted production service workflow: it creates a book structure, drafts chapter-by-chapter instead of generating the whole book at once, lets you review and edit chapters, creates formatting and cover concepts, and packages the approved service deliverables for download. The better the source material, examples, links, and notes you provide, the more specific and useful the final book can be.

Question 2Do all packages include a complete book?+

Yes. Every package includes a custom AI-assisted nonfiction book-production service with manuscript development, formatted interior files, cover/back-cover direction, a selected cover file, a combined cover-plus-interior preview PDF, ebook/manuscript export options, and a final delivery ZIP. Higher packages include more estimated pages, more revision support, deeper source processing, and more cover design options.

Question 3How many pages will my book have?+

Page counts are estimates based on a 6x9 formatted interior. Draft Sprint is estimated at 50-75 formatted pages, Book Production Kit at 90-140 formatted pages, and Executive Package at 150-220 formatted pages. Final page count can vary by chapter structure, images, spacing, trim size, and design choices.

Question 4How many chapters are included?+

Draft Sprint includes 5 core chapters, Book Production Kit includes an estimated 8-10 expanded chapters, and Executive Package includes an estimated 12-15 premium chapters. Chapter counts are planned during intake and may adjust slightly if the book structure needs a stronger flow.

Question 5Is my book KDP-ready?+

Your package includes files intended to support KDP preparation, including an EPUB/DOCX manuscript export for Kindle-style ebook workflows, a formatted interior PDF for print-review workflows, selected cover files, and production notes. Final KDP approval depends on Amazon's upload review, metadata, ISBN details, cover image requirements, image quality, and any platform-specific rules. We do not guarantee platform approval or publication.

Question 6Is this ghostwriting or AI-assisted production?+

This is an AI-assisted book production service, not a retail sale of a prewritten digital book. Your intake, ideas, source material, and review feedback guide the book. The system helps structure, draft, format, and package the service deliverables. It is not positioned as traditional human ghostwriting.

Question 7Can I use this for a fiction book or novel?+

No. AIBookWriting.com is built for nonfiction authority books, business books, expert frameworks, how-to guides, and educational books. It is not designed for fiction, poetry, children's books, screenplays, or novels.

Question 8What is included in the final delivery ZIP?+

The ZIP can include the service deliverables created during the workflow: Complete Delivery Package README, package manifest, Interior Only - Print PDF, Interior Only - Kindle EPUB, Editable Manuscript - DOCX, Interior Only Preview HTML, Cover + Interior Preview PDF, Selected Cover Only - SVG, Selected Cover Only - JPG, clean manuscript/review files, and production notes. The exact list depends on the formats generated and selected during the workflow.

Question 9Will I get one file with the cover and book together?+

Yes. The final package includes a Cover + Interior Preview PDF for easy client review. Production files are also kept separate because publishing and print workflows commonly require separate interior and cover uploads.

Question 10Why are the cover and interior also separate files?+

Print and ebook workflows often expect different files for different purposes. Kindle commonly needs a manuscript file such as EPUB or DOCX plus a separate cover image, while print workflows may need an interior PDF and a separate cover file sized to the trim and page count. The combined preview PDF is for review and easy reading.

Question 11Do packages include a back cover?+

Yes. Packages include back-cover direction or copy as part of the cover concept workflow. More advanced packages include more cover options and more room for image, logo, or headshot direction.

Question 12Can I upload my own cover image, logo, or headshot?+

Yes. You can provide image references, logos, or headshots during the cover workflow when your package supports those assets. You should only upload images you own, created yourself, licensed properly, or have permission to use.

Question 13How many cover options do I get?+

Draft Sprint includes 8 cover concepts, Book Production Kit includes 16 cover concepts, and Executive Package includes 24 cover concepts. The final delivery package includes the selected cover concept, including a JPG version for ebook cover upload when generated.

Question 14Can I request changes to the cover?+

Yes. Cover review is part of the workflow. The number of concepts and depth of revision support depends on the selected package.

Question 15Can I change chapter titles if I typed them wrong?+

Yes. The intake form suggests cleaned chapter titles before submission, including basic typo cleanup and title capitalization. You can edit your entries before continuing.

Question 16Will the system silently change my chapter titles?+

No. The intake screen shows suggested cleaned titles so you can see how the system will use them. The original wording is still preserved as part of the outline context.

Question 17What happens after I complete intake?+

Your project moves into the dashboard, where chapters can be generated, reviewed, edited, approved, formatted, paired with cover concepts, and packaged for delivery.

Question 18Can I edit the manuscript?+

Yes. The dashboard includes a chapter review editor where you can revise chapter content, headings, lists, and images before approval and final packaging. The app stores a structured manuscript behind the scenes so the same approved content can be exported into PDF, EPUB, DOCX, and package files.

Question 19How many revision passes are included?+

Draft Sprint includes 1 revision pass, Book Production Kit includes 2 revision passes, and Executive Package includes 3 revision passes.

Question 20What counts as a revision pass?+

A revision pass is a structured review cycle where feedback is applied to the manuscript or chapter set. It is meant for improving direction, clarity, tone, and structure rather than creating a completely unrelated new book.

Question 21Can I provide source material?+

Yes. You can provide links, pasted text, transcripts, notes, and supported source files. You can also insert chapter images manually during review when you own or have rights to use them. Higher packages include deeper source/content extraction and more room for development.

Question 22How do I tell the system that certain material belongs in a specific chapter?+

Use the source placement options during intake. If all of the material belongs mainly to one chapter, choose Preserve for one specific chapter and enter the chapter number. You can also write clear labels inside your pasted notes, such as Chapter 3: before the material for that chapter. Clear labels help the system keep the right ideas with the right chapter.

Question 23What happens if I upload material without saying which chapter it belongs to?+

Unmarked material is treated as general book context. That means the system may use it for tone, examples, vocabulary, proof points, and background understanding, but it should not randomly assign the material to one chapter. If you want something preserved in a certain chapter, mark it clearly.

Question 24What does chapter preservation mean?+

Chapter preservation means you are telling the system, This source material should stay connected to this chapter. It does not mean the text will be copied word-for-word. It means the system should respect the placement, use the material only where it belongs, and avoid mixing it into unrelated chapters.

Question 25Can the system split my source material by chapter headings?+

Yes. If your notes or document already uses clear headings like Chapter 1:, Chapter 2:, or the exact chapter title, choose the option to split by headings. The system will use those headings as placement signals. If the headings are unclear, the material may be treated as general context instead.

Question 26What is the easiest way to prepare my notes before intake?+

The simplest format is to add a short label before each section. For example: General source: for background material, Chapter 2: for material that belongs in chapter 2, and Chapter 5 case study: for a specific story or example. You do not need perfect formatting, but clear labels reduce confusion.

Question 27What if I only provide a small amount of content?+

You can start with limited notes, but quality and page count depend on intake depth. The system looks at the full combination of chapter ideas, typed notes, pasted source material, uploaded files, and links. Two uploaded pages may be enough if the notes, links, or chapter instructions are substantial. If the intake is too light for the selected package, the dashboard may ask for more examples, stories, proof points, source material, or chapter detail before producing the strongest draft.

Question 28Do I have to upload a certain number of pages?+

No. There is no rigid upload-page requirement. A strong intake can come from uploaded documents, detailed chapter prompts, pasted transcripts, external links, examples, frameworks, or a combination of these. The goal is enough substance to support the estimated page range without making the book generic.

Question 29Will the book sound like me?+

The system uses your tone settings, source material, and voice markers to guide style. Executive Package includes deeper voice calibration than the lower packages.

Question 30Can I use podcast transcripts or YouTube links?+

Yes. The intake supports external content links and pasted source material. These can be used for voice markers, proof points, examples, and topic context.

Question 31Do you guarantee sales or bestseller status?+

No. The service creates book assets and production files. It does not guarantee book sales, bestseller status, media coverage, platform approval, or business results.

Question 32Do you publish the book for me?+

No. These packages do not include publishing, distribution, or account upload services. The final package is designed for review, production handoff, and preparation for publishing workflows.

Question 33Do I need an ISBN?+

You do not need an ISBN to start. If you already have one, you can enter it in the formatting step so it appears in the copyright/production details.

Question 34Can I add copyright and publisher information?+

Yes. The formatting step includes fields for copyright holder, copyright year, ISBN, publisher name, publisher location, rights statement, optional disclaimer, and an About section that can be labeled as About the Author or About the Publisher.

Question 35Am I buying a digital book product?+

No. You are purchasing a custom AI-assisted nonfiction book-production service. Digital files such as PDFs, manuscript drafts, cover concepts, notes, and ZIP archives are service deliverables created from your intake, source material, and review feedback.

Question 36Will sales tax be charged?+

Checkout is configured as a custom service workflow rather than a retail digital-book product. Tax treatment can vary by jurisdiction and payment settings, so receipts and tax settings should follow professional tax guidance. If tax rules change or Stripe Tax is enabled later, checkout disclosures may be updated.

Question 37Does the ebook include a Table of Contents?+

Yes. The generated manuscript includes a Table of Contents. For Kindle, the preferred expression is Table of Contents, and EPUB/DOCX exports are intended to be more suitable for ebook upload than a fixed-layout PDF.

Question 38What if my final page count is outside the estimate?+

The listed page ranges are estimates, not exact guarantees. If source material is unusually short, dense, image-heavy, or formatted differently, page count can shift. The goal is to be transparent about expected range rather than promise an exact page number.

Question 39Which package should I choose?+

Choose Draft Sprint for a compact 5-chapter nonfiction book, Book Production Kit for a more polished 8-10 chapter standard nonfiction book, and Executive Package for a longer 12-15 chapter book with deeper voice calibration, more revision support, and more cover options.
