Why choose Bookalope?
Your books matter. Our Benetech approved publishing tools ensure you create accessible ebooks and beautiful print books efficiently. Whether you work with manuscripts fresh from your copy editor or with existing old and even invalid ebooks, Bookalope helps you get the job done your way. Because your time matters, too.
Improve your workflow
At Bookalope, we believe that software tools should support, refine, and enrich instead of dictate your workflow. Choose how you want to work with our tools and where you’d like to integrate them into your existing book production process. You decide whether you want just a little support for what you’ve got, or if you’d prefer Bookalope to do all the work.
Save time
Tedious, boring, and tiresome. That’s what manually cleaning up and structuring manuscripts for ebook conversion and print design feels like for many publishers and book designers. Bookalope cuts to the chase by automating most aspects of that process. It reduces work that takes you hours or even days to manually structure, clean-up, and convert to just a few minutes using our custom-designed AI-assisted tools. Simply double-check that everything is labeled correctly, and hit convert. Done!
