Testimonials

  • This system takes the grind out of my day and allows me more time to think, to create, to write. I'm so happy this dream of mine came true! I could never go back to the way things were... mountains of spreadsheets and Post-It notes and lost emails. Thank you!

FAQ

1What Is AuthorExclusive?
AuthorExclusive offers authors a comprehensive set of AI-powered tools to produce, market, and manage their books, either as independently published or third-party, traditionally published authors.

The platform’s goal is to empower authors, drive author team collaboration, and put time back in the hands of authors who’d rather write more, than be bogged down with administrative tasks associated with the release of each new title.

Built by process engineers in collaboration with bestselling authors, AuthorExclusive’s unique book production process is a “conveyor belt” driving a book from initial manuscript through to completion and release readiness. The powerful technology behind the platform will alert authors when wrong steps are about to be taken and will present them with optimal choice advice wherever it makes sense.

The team collaboration function provided by AuthorExclusive is multifaceted and intuitive. The platform allows authors to build their teams using their own personal contacts, without forcing them to hire talent on the platform. Once onboarded, each role has its own designated workspace, where a particular step of the book production process takes place: copyediting, line editing, interior layout design, cover design, graphics and video production, copywriting. Team members can chat on the platform’s messenger, exchange files in the respective workspaces using an advanced, feature-rich file upload function that attaches functional parameters to every file.

Book marketing is empowered by preloaded, extensive, and customizable marketing plans comprised of tasks that are easily assigned to team members. Task deadlines trigger due date alerts and can be visualized in calendar form.

The platform includes full-featured Digital Asset Management functionality, complete with easy social sharing to facilitate book marketing with unprecedented speed. Authors can easily find all their files with search and filtering options, whether those are book files in various stages of execution, finalized approved files, images, or videos.

AuthorExclusive will not publish books; rather, it empowers authors to have everything ready when they decide to publish, however and wherever they decide to publish.

After publication, the platform continues to assist authors with unique and robust management tools, such as management of Amazon Categories for titles, maximizing the titles’ discoverability in all four English-speaking markets, by format. Like many other features, this element welcomes the author’s backlist, offering visibility into current category selections on the Amazon store, and making any changes an easy feat with AI-driven email drafting.

Agent Query is a feature that further empowers the authors to save precious research time and query a number of agents, carefully selected to match each query’s genre and particulars. Literary agent queries, TV and movie rights, and foreign rights queries are available.

For those bestselling authors whose work is at risk of being pirated, AuthorExclusive brings answers with Piracy Check, a function that will reveal any potentially unauthorized listing of a title with one click or tap of a button. Peace of mind comes in the form of Piracy Alerts, offering authors the option to receive alerts when their titles appear anywhere on the internet.

2How Is AuthorExclusive Organized?
AuthorExclusive features twelve workspaces, intuitively organized in a wizard-like, conveyor belt book production and management process. Under Titles, there are three main headings: New Title Setup, Production, and Management. Each of these three headings have four workspaces. A workspace is a dedicated area centered around a key deliverable (such as editing or category management), where all parties who play a role in achieving that deliverable can collaborate.

Workspaces are also organized repositories of data and files, from where data is later aggregated and structured in easily accessible locations such as the Digital Asset Management or Publishing Cheatsheets.

Tools are grouped together under the eponymous menu entry and feature the following.
  • Publishing Cheatsheets—a section dedicated to aggregating all the information needed to publish a title in all formats, saving you the trouble of browsing the entire platform looking for all the components.
  • Tasks—a section dedicated to team management, where tasks can be created, assigned, and delivered; deadlines set; and progress closely monitored in two view options: list and board.
  • Piracy Check—a powerful search engine tailored to identify pirated copies of published books. You can ease your mind and let our AI keep an eye on your intellectual property and notify you when pirated copies appear anywhere online.
  • Notifications—a detailed view of all the system alerts and notifications received on your account.
Finally, on the upper menu, there are two other essential tools you can access via icons.
  • Schedule—a planning tool that shows when tasks are due and lists upcoming deadlines in order of urgency.
  • Chat—AuthorExclusive’s own messaging system, providing features such as one-on-one and group conversations; searches for keywords, links, attachments, and images; and a gallery view for all images.
