What’s new

New features, improvements, and fixes from the Aivolut Books team.

Turn your books into audiobooks

- Create English audiobooks with a choice of narrators, listen by chapter, and download a complete MP3 or chapter files together as a ZIP. - Customize opening and closing narration while keeping the book narration unchanged. Audiobooks is available in Beta. - Compare narrators more easily with voice-style labels and short descriptions alongside the free samples.

Create kids' picture books

- Create illustrated picture books, revise individual page artwork, and download a shareable reading PDF. - Regenerate or upload a kids' book cover from Book cover, with square previews and previous covers kept in history. - Improved character consistency after approving a regenerated character sheet, so earlier appearance descriptions no longer compete with your chosen designs.

Import your manuscript

- Import a DOCX or TXT manuscript from your Books library, then edit and export it in Books. Manuscript import is available in Beta.

Review your manuscript chapter by chapter

- Use Basic Analysis on Pro to find writing corrections, repetition, tense or point-of-view changes, local contradictions, and editorial suggestions. - Analyze every remaining chapter in the background and return later to review saved findings.

Find rewards in one place

- Use Earn credits below your sidebar balance to see available rewards, submit proof, and track your claims.

Review your brief with guided help

- Choose Getting started from your account menu to resume creating a book or take a short tour of the main areas. - Review Overview, Outline, and Research together with one spotlight, then find the Generate book action with the next. - Close a guidance callout to explore freely while keeping guidance enabled, or choose Exit guidance to stop it. - Automatically pick up unfinished brief guidance when reloading or reopening the brief in the same browser tab.

Write in US or UK English

- Choose American or British English when creating a new book idea. - New books consistently use the spelling, vocabulary, punctuation, and publishing conventions for the English variant you select.

Switch chapters without unnecessary saving

- Move between chapters in Editor and Analysis without waiting for a save when the text is unchanged.

Review generated ideas at a glance

- Compare six concise book ideas in one compact grid, select or clear them together, and choose a project when saving. - Move between generation settings and the current ideas without losing your unsaved selection, or regenerate a fresh set when needed. - Keep series planning tucked under Advanced options, and generate picture-book ideas with just a reader age and language while Books selects a fitting category. - Add and edit ideas in shorter two-column forms with clear required-field markers. - Keep idea cards even and easy to scan with three-line descriptions, Create Brief at the bottom left, selection at the top left, favorites at the top right, and secondary actions in the bottom-right menu. - Search and filter briefs, switch between compact grid and list views, and generate ready books from a consistent bottom-left action with secondary actions at the bottom right. - Find Kids' picture book briefs in their own tab, with secondary brief actions and Trash safely grouped in a three-dot menu.

Streamline brief setup

- Open brief setup instantly from Ideas, including moving from Edit Idea without closing the pop-up. - Review the idea, product type, and genre as a clear summary, then choose the book length. - Find custom knowledge together with additional instructions under optional Advanced options. - Review book details, generation choices, and pricing side by side before starting generation.

Create your first book with guided help

- Start with a focused welcome that helps you add an idea or points out exactly where to generate one with AI. - Follow clear guidance from your chosen idea through the brief, generation, and editable first draft. - Resume an unfinished first book directly from your empty library.

Refine generated book titles

- Refined book idea titles to emphasize distinctive hooks and genre appeal, with standalone fiction titles and complementary nonfiction subtitles.

Write under multiple author profiles

- Save up to 10 author profiles, including each author’s name, biography, dedication, acknowledgements, and “also by” titles. - Choose an author profile from the brief before generating a book. The selected profile’s details stay with that book even if the profile changes later. - Find book defaults faster in separate General, Authors, Content, and Covers tabs. - Keep AI-generated dedication, acknowledgements, and author biography text in place so it can be reviewed and saved. - Generate profile copy for the author currently being edited, without placeholder titles or signed dedications. - Rewrite existing profile text into a proper dedication, acknowledgements section, or author biography for its field. - Let author-profile text fields grow with their contents, up to eight lines. - Show one relevant AI action per field: generate when empty, or rewrite when text already exists.

Write books with your own API key

- Plus and Pro members can connect their own supported AI key, choose a writing model, and use it for eligible book generation and AI editing. - New books can use Aivolut Books or a connected key by default, with a per-book override before generation.

Review picture-book artwork page by page

- Picture-book pages now load lighter WebP previews while preserving their original artwork. - Regenerate one successful page with optional feedback, or upload a PNG, JPEG, or WebP replacement, then compare it with the current image before deciding whether to use it. - Mark page artwork as reviewed and choose from Watercolour, Gouache, Coloured pencil, Paper cut, Flat cartoon, or a custom visual style. - Accepted replacements show the new artwork immediately, and older picture books can regenerate page artwork too.

Refine book briefs more easily

Improve picture-book generation

- Picture-book generation now continues without showing age-level word or sentence-length warning lists. - Character-sheet review now avoids showing a misleading 100% manuscript progress indicator before page illustrations begin.

Build series one installment at a time

- Start a series from an existing book, review it on the Series page, and add the next installment when you are ready. - Books already in a series open their existing Series page, while series cards show both written-book and brief progress.

Research book topics with cited sources

- Pro members can create detailed research reports with cited sources, then generate book ideas grounded in those findings. - Research follows saved ideas and series into briefs and books, where citations and source notes remain available through editing and supported exports. - New reports organise evidence, limitations, disagreements, recent developments, and practical applications more clearly for use in book planning and writing. - New research prioritizes authoritative sources and distinguishes relevant social-media anecdotes from established evidence. - Research citations are retained more reliably during writing, and numbered citations now keep their square brackets in exported books. - The editor shows compact numbered research citations, and chapter sources no longer overlap the manuscript. - Newly generated fiction and nonfiction books aim more closely at the selected word count. - New nonfiction chapters open directly with prose beneath the chapter title, with section headings retained later in the chapter. - Saved research can now be deleted while books that already used it keep their research snapshots.

Upload your own book covers

Review books chapter by chapter
