A wizard Software. Fully Automated. Recommended

from day one the support is super responsive and the software is super easy to use. it generate books like a wizard. I am so happy it saves my tons of time. i created 15 books within a day which was not that easy before. I don't need to formate. everything is automated.

Thank you for this. Fifteen books in a single day, formatted and ready to go, is exactly the kind of time saving BookyAI was built for, and we are glad the support has felt responsive from day one.

Direct publishing to KDP is a request we hear often, and it is on our roadmap. Amazon does not offer a public API for listing books, so it is not a quick addition, but we are exploring the options and will announce it the moment it is ready. Until then, the KDP-ready exports and cover sizes are designed to make the upload as short as possible.

Thank you for the trust, and happy publishing.

To be honest after 2 or 3 days i requested a refund and all i had was the run around with ai telling me thet submitted a ticket went on for days and i was pulling my hair out. I thought reporting them to uk authorities and contacting my bank for a refund . Something made me hesitate and i though to hell with this lets try working it and produced a couple of books but then realised the images were pay walled, but none the less i carried on AND i produced a few more books paid for image generation and carried on .WELL HERE I AM 72 BOOKS LATER. and realise if you perservere it works i have 72 books on kdp and last month had 1800 plus views . I am over the moon I didnt get refund and I will say this clearly it is one of the Best prog. I use and i got them all from videoexpress to who knows what . i will give them 100 out of 100 No question

Thank you for this, and congratulations: 72 books on KDP and over 1,800 views last month is a real publishing operation, built by you, one book at a time.

We also appreciate the honesty about the start. Those first days should not have felt like a runaround, and the support delays you hit back then are exactly what we have since fixed with a ticket system reviewed by the development team. You are living proof of what happens after that first hurdle: the tool works when you work it.

Here is to the next 72. Thank you for sticking with us!

It was an awful experience for me!

It was an awful experience for me!
I contacted support so many times when I was a customer. I was patient, but I kept on receiving the same generic responses. After two weeks of having no luck with the software - by the way, there should have been guidance for people who are absolutely beginners with API keys, as this is needed with this software - and going back and forth, I had to obtain a refund.
It was a waste of time, and I was truly upset with support’s generic and inauthentic support.
The software was buggy. There were hardly any descriptions, and the dashboard was minimal with hardly any guidance.
I received my refund, because I only had it for a couple of weeks, and I was unable to use it at all. It was a complete waste of my time.

Earlier today, it seemed I received an email from the CEO, attempting to explain the lack of support and how some people were slow in receiving their refunds.
I wrote back and informed them I had a negative experience. They then responded with another generic email (of course I'm no longer a client, but why did they write to me?). I then informed them that I had been sent an email. Subsequently, my message was blocked.

In hindsight, it was a one-star experience for me, and it looks like they're trying to clear up their image. No wonder a Reddit comment accused them of being scammers.

Proceed with caution.

Hello Taiwo, thank you for the feedback, and we are sorry your first weeks with BookyAI were frustrating.

A few facts for anyone reading. Your refund was requested and issued in full, as you confirm. On the emails: no message from you was ever blocked. The email you received came from our founder to every customer affected by a support backlog this summer, and your reply was answered because we answer every reply. If a later message of yours went unanswered, that was a failure on our side, not a block, and we would like to see it: write to support with the date and we will follow up personally.

You are right about one thing in particular: someone completely new to API keys should not have to figure that step out alone. That guidance was too thin when you tried BookyAI, and it has since been expanded in the knowledgebase and directly in the support performance. Support replies during that period were also too generic, which is why support now runs on a ticket system reviewed by the development team.

No software is perfect, least of all in its early months. BookyAI improves every week precisely because of feedback like yours, and the authors who stayed with us have seen that in the releases. We understand it did not work out for you, and we wish you well with your writing.

Incredible AI writing tool backed by world-class support!

As an author who has written multiple books using BookyAI, I can confidently say this platform is a game-changer for creators. The AI generation tools are powerful, intuitive, and highly effective at bringing stories to life. What truly sets BookyAI apart is their unparalleled customer service. Whenever I encounter a technical issue, the support team responds fast. They do not just send automated replies; they immediately open tickets that get escaled directly to the Head Developer for review. Knowing the technical leadership actively oversees user issues gives me immense peace of mind. BookyAI offers the perfect combination of cutting-edge technology and a development team that genuinely cares about its writers. Highly recommended!

Thank you, Michael. Several books written with BookyAI is the kind of track record that makes a review like this mean something, and we are grateful you took the time to write it.

You have described our support process exactly as it works: technical issues go into a ticket, and the ticket lands with the people who build the product, because a real fix is worth far more to a writer than a quick reply. Many of the improvements shipped in recent months started as tickets just like yours.

Thank you for the trust, and happy writing on the next one.

I am brand new to BookyAI

I am brand new to BookyAI, and could not be more pleased with my first support experience. Being new to self-publishing, my "terminology vocabulary" is virtually zero, and my questions come from a knowledge base of that same zero. How my total ignorance and need for even the simplest of instructions was handled with such competence and even grace...from a machine, has left me blown away.
Congratulations!! Job well done!!

Thank you, Kelly. There is no such thing as a question too simple, and a support experience that leaves a brand new self-publisher feeling capable rather than lost is exactly what we aim for.

The terminology will come quickly, and until it does, our support assistant and our team are there for every step, no matter how small.

Welcome to BookyAI, and enjoy writing your first book. We would love to hear about it when it is done.

All in one publishing app

Before discovering BookyAI, I struggled with Amazon KDP cover dimensions and often had to redesign my book covers several times. BookyAI simplified the entire process and saved me considerable time and frustration.
I also purchased Bindery, and the experience of having my own online bookstore is incredibly rewarding. Adding the Agency package has enabled me to establish my own writing and publishing agency, through which I can professionally serve clients.
Together, these three products have given me the tools to build a complete publishing business alongside my other activities. The audiobook feature is the perfect finishing touch, making the entire experience even more valuable.
Their customer service is also excellent. The support feels personal and one-on-one, which makes every customer feel genuinely valued. Overall, BookyAI has been a transformative investment for my publishing journey.

Thank you for this. Hearing that BookyAI, Bindery and the Agency package have come together into a real publishing business is the best outcome we could hope for, and the fact that the KDP cover headaches are behind you makes us especially happy, since that was one of the first problems we set out to remove.

We are also glad the audiobook feature landed as the finishing touch, and that support has felt personal. That is deliberate: every message is read and answered by the team building the product, and it will stay that way.

Good luck with your clients and your own titles. We would love to see what your bookstore looks like a year from now!

I have worked on a history of bluegrass…

I have worked on a history of bluegrass music in my region of Southern New England forv5byears. With bookyai I made a prompt explaining what I was trying to do and got a 23 chapter result touching every aspect I wanted. Is all of it great? No. But I am reviewing and editing every chapter. What a great method. Wish I understood APIs better.

Thank you, Richard. Five years on a regional history of bluegrass is exactly the kind of book that deserves to be finished, and it is a pleasure to hear that BookyAI helped you turn all that knowledge into 23 chapters you can now shape by hand.

Reviewing and editing every chapter is precisely the method we hope people use: the AI does the heavy first draft, and the author brings the judgment.

On APIs: you should not have to understand them. The only thing BookyAI needs is a free Google Gemini key.

Get it from aistudio.google.com, paste it once into Settings, and you never touch it again.

If anything about that step is unclear, write to support and we will walk you through it in a couple of minutes. It is also a sign that our documentation should explain it better, and we will fix that.

Good luck with the editing, and we would love to hear when the book is out.

Great Tool, Responsive Team, Rapid Improvements

I’ve had a very positive experience with BookyAI so far.

I came into it with a fairly technical background and a lot of experience working with AI tools, custom agents, and multi-model workflows, so I wasn’t expecting a magic “one click and your book is done” solution. What I was looking for was a tool that could help accelerate the writing process, organize ideas, generate useful drafts, and give me a solid foundation to work from. BookyAI has done that well.

Like any AI writing platform, the quality of the output depends heavily on the quality of the ideas, prompts, context, and direction you provide. When I put the time into developing strong concepts, characters, timelines, and instructions, I’ve been able to get very useful results from the platform.

What has impressed me most is the responsiveness of the development team. I’ve provided several suggestions and pieces of technical feedback, and I’ve seen improvements and new capabilities implemented very quickly. That tells me they are actively listening to users and working to improve the product rather than just selling software and disappearing.

The platform is still evolving, and there are areas where the interface, documentation, and workflow can continue to improve, but that’s normal for a product developing this quickly. I’ve also been impressed by the direction they are taking with model flexibility, rewriting tools, reviews, and broader integration options.

For me, BookyAI is not a replacement for creativity, editing, research, or good writing judgment. It is a very useful tool that can help get you much further, much faster when you understand how to use it effectively.

Overall, I’m happy with my purchase and encouraged by how quickly the product is improving. I’m looking forward to seeing where the team takes it next.

Thank you James, this one means a lot. You've described exactly how we hope BookyAI gets used: as a tool that takes strong ideas, characters and direction and gets you much further, much faster, not as a replacement for the writer.

And you're right that the fast improvements aren't an accident.

Several of the capabilities you've seen land recently came straight from your suggestions and technical feedback, and that is the loop we want to keep: users who tell us precisely what they need, and a team that ships it.

The interface, documentation and workflow will keep getting better, and we'd love to keep hearing from you as they do.

Thank you for the trust, and happy writing!

I have just started using Bookyai

I have just started using Bookyai, but so far I am very pleased. It helped me organize my chapters, and I am about ready to publish. I plan on using it again and again. It made turning my Word document into an authentic book very easy.

Do not buy this product from Bookyai

Do Not Buy This Product from BookyAI

I purchased BookyAI on 5 August 2026 for US$84.00 and my experience was extremely disappointing.

After purchasing the product, I requested a refund. Despite sending approximately 15 emails over a period of more than 20 days, I did not receive a satisfactory resolution or clear communication regarding the status of my refund. During this period, I warned the company on four separate occasions that I would escalate the matter if the issue was not resolved.

Due to the lack of progress, I was ultimately forced to contact my bank and request assistance. The refund was eventually recovered through banking services, not through what I considered an effective support process from BookyAI.

My biggest concern was communication. If there were support backlogs, payment processing issues, PayPal or Stripe problems, or staffing constraints, customers should have been informed proactively. Instead, I was left repeatedly chasing updates while waiting for a resolution.

BookyAI has since stated publicly that my refund was processed on 11 August 2026 and that delays may have been caused by how refunds appear on bank statements under the name "HELIXMIND" rather than "BookyAI". While that explanation may account for part of the confusion, it does not change the fact that communication throughout the process was poor and I repeatedly had to follow up for information.

I also recently received an email from BookyAI stating that email support is not provided for non-customers and directing users to a knowledge base and sales pages. At the same time, the company claims to have implemented a new support system. In my experience, the support portal primarily generated automated AI responses and did not provide the level of assistance I expected for a refund-related matter.

I was also disappointed with the purchasing model. What initially appeared to be a one-time purchase involved additional upsells and paid features that many competing AI platforms include at little or no additional cost.

Summary of my experience:

• Purchased BookyAI on 5 August 2026.
• Requested a refund.
• Sent approximately 15 emails.
• Waited more than 20 days for resolution.
• Received poor communication throughout the process.
• Escalated the matter to my bank.
• Refund was eventually recovered after bank involvement.

While BookyAI has acknowledged communication failures and states that new systems have been introduced, my review reflects the experience I personally had as a customer.

Hello Dirk, thank you for writing, and we're sorry that getting to a resolution took more messages than it should have.

For the record: your payment of US$84.00 (made on 5 August) was refunded in full on 11 August — in two transactions of US$67.00 and US$17.00, both confirmed as paid out by our payment provider. One important detail that may explain the confusion: on your bank statement, both the original charge and the refunds appear under the name HELIXMIND, not "BookyAI", and refunds to a debit card can take up to 10 business days to post, often as a reversal rather than a new entry. If you still cannot find them, reply to our email and we will send you the provider's refund receipts to give to your bank.

Where we genuinely fell short was communication during a support and payment-processing backlog in August: you should have been kept informed proactively, and you weren't. We've since moved support to a tracked ticket system so that a request cannot go unanswered the way yours did.

On pricing: BookyAI is a one-time purchase, with optional add-ons labelled as such. If that wasn't clear at checkout, that's useful feedback and we'll review the pages.

Your refund is complete, and our door stays open.

When I purchased BookyAI I was rather…

When I purchased BookyAI I was rather skeptical. Upon installing the program it seemed to be another just another idea machine. I had several rough starts trying to get it to assist me with my partial chapters. After contacting support a few times and not giving up I finally got it to work. I actually did a small 10k word short story and it came out great. Since then they have added Audio which again had a few glitches but is working well now. I have not tried the cover generator yet or the newest addition series.
My main concern is continuity between chapters. I find a lot of times if I have not created an ending already or if I allow the writer to go it alone it will repeat parts of the previous chapter in the current chapter. I also find that at times if you ask for it to expand a chapter it will borrow lines from the chapter before or after.

I just want to be clear the program will self write and it does a good job besides the continuity issue above.
I am glad I decided to join when I did and watching this grow has been great. If you want a good program that is getting better and better this is the one.

Preston, thank you for such a thoughtful review; it means a lot coming from someone who pushed through the rough start. On continuity: you've described it precisely. Recent versions strengthened the book's memory — each chapter now gets structured recaps of the previous ones (what happened, open story threads, where every character is), which cut the drift a lot — but the specific repetition you see (a chapter retelling part of the previous one, or Expand reusing lines it was shown) isn't fully solved yet, and it's now at the top of our list with concrete measures: explicit "start where the last chapter ended, never re-narrate" rules, content recaps for non-fiction too, an Expand mode that is forbidden from reusing surrounding text, and an automatic overlap check that regenerates a chapter when it repeats the previous one. Until then, two things help: review the outline before writing (make sure no two chapter summaries cover the same beat) and keep the Codex threads current — the AI follows them closely. I'll let you know personally when the update ships.

I experienced great customer support.

I have uploaded my own manuscript several times trying to learn BookyAI and other things as a brand new author. I only have one book so far on Amazon KDP and IngramSpark. I wanted to see how BookyAI handled an uploaded manuscript and if it would make my publishing process easier. Every time I had an issue the BookyAI team jumped on it and fixed it and immediately created a new Update. I am pleased to say they have been pretty successful of most all of the problem corrections and deserve credit for currently having much better customer support now and do their best to understand every single issue. Thanks BookyAI.
