FOR AUTHORS

Email marketing for authors, on autopilot.

Build your author email list and reader mailing list, embed a newsletter signup form on your author website, and upload your book so AI can draft launch emails, weekly newsletters, and a re-engagement series grounded in your themes, characters, and quotable lines. Manage genre-segmented lists from one dashboard. Built on Amazon SES so your emails land in inboxes.

  • Free tier — 500 emails / month, 2 lists, no card needed
  • Strict double opt-in — clean lists, high deliverability
  • Native Mailchimp + ConvertKit importers

AI drafts author newsletters

Upload your book. Pick a sequence template (launch, weekly themes, re-engagement). Drafts ground every email in real lines from your manuscript — not generic enthusiasm.

Reader email lists by genre

Subscribers self-select at signup so romance fans never get your sci-fi releases. One author, multiple lists, no overlap.

Deliverability first

Amazon SES, DKIM-signed, RFC 8058 one-click unsubscribe, automatic bounce + complaint handling. Your emails reach the inbox.

HOW IT WORKS

From manuscript to weeks of email drafts in an afternoon.

1

Upload your book

EPUB, PDF, DOCX, or plain text. We extract the first ~250k characters — covers most novels.

2

AI extracts the marketing material

Genre, tone, themes, characters, comparable books, and verbatim quotable passages — all structured in 30-60 seconds.

3

Pick a sequence + edit drafts

5-email launch sequence, weekly themed newsletters, re-engagement series. Drafts arrive in 1-3 minutes. Edit, regenerate, or schedule as-is.

4

Embed the signup widget

One <script> tag drops a styled signup form on your website. Subscribers go through double opt-in automatically.

WHY WE PRICE BY EMAIL VOLUME

Pay for what you actually send.

Other services charge by subscriber count — even the ones you never email. We charge by total emails sent per month. Your list can grow as big as it wants; you only pay more when you actually need to send more.

And because we hand you weeks of ready-to-send drafts generated from your manuscript — a launch sequence, weekly themed newsletters, and re-engagement — the ongoing effort is closer to zero.
